Replacing the Lamp

Replacing the Lamp
The lifespan of the lamp depends on
the environment in which the projector
is used.
You can check how long the projector
lamp has been used in the OPTION
menu. Make sure to replace the lamp in
the following situations:
y The projected image gets darker or
the quality deteriorates.
y The lamp warning indicator is red.
y The "Replace the lamp" message
appears on the screen when turning
the projector on.
Be careful when replacing
the lamp
y Turn off the power by pressing the
POWER button on the remote con-
trol or control panel.
y Do not remove the power cord when
the operation indicator is flashing
orange, i.e. the fan is working (about
20 seconds). When the operation
indicator is orange and no longer
flashing, remove the power cord.
y Allow the lamp to cool for one hour
before replacing it.
y Replace only with the same type of
lamp from an LG Electronics Ser-
vice Center. Using another manu-
facturer's lamp may damage the
projector and lamp.
y Only pull the lamp out when replac-
ing it.
USING THE PROJECTOR
y Keep the lamp unit out of reach of
children. Keep the lamp away from
heat sources, such as radiators
and stoves. There is a fire or burn
hazard.
y Do not expose the lamp to liquids
or foreign materials. The lamp may
burst.
y Do not insert flammable or metal
objects into the lamp socket after
removing the lamp. This can result
in electrical shock or damage the
product.
y Securely tighten the new lamp with
screws. If it is not securely tight-
ened, the projected image may
become darker and there may be a
fire hazard.
y Do not touch the front glass of the
new lamp or the glass of the lamp
container. Picture quality and lamp
lifespan may suffer.
Purchasing a
replacement lamp
Check the lamp model and then pur-
chase the replacement lamp from an LG
Electronics Service Center.
(Use a lamp designed specifically for the
projector; otherwise, it may damage the
projector.)
