How to Replace the 
Lamp
1
Turn off the power on the main unit. Wait several minutes, then unplug 
the power cord.
(The cooling fan will continue to operate for about two minutes after 
turning the power off.)
2
Wait at least 30 minutes after unplugging the power cord to allow the 
lamp to cool down before replacing it. To avoid being burned, do not 
touch the lamp receptacle once the lamp has been removed.
3
Take the new lamp out of its package.
Do not touch the glass portion of the new lamp.
4
Turn the screw with a screwdriver counterclockwise and remove the 
outside lamp cover.
5
Pull out the lamp.
Place your index finger through the hoop of the lamp handle and pull it 
upwards, while placing your thumb on the dent on the top.  Then pull 
the lamp out.
Do not shake the lamp. Vibration can damage the lamp or 
shorten its life.
Avoid touching the front glass of a new lamp or the glass of the 
lamp receptacle. This may reduce picture quality or lamp life.
The lamp is very hot after use. Never touch the glass portion of the 
lamp or the non-designated surrounding parts  (shown in gray).
After the used lamp has cooled, place it into the empty box of the 
replacement lamp. Never put the used lamp into a plastic bag.
