Replacing the lamp
If lamp replacement is performed while the projector is suspended upside-down from the 
ceiling, make sure that no one is underneath the lamp socket to avoid any possible injury 
or damage to the human eyes caused by fractured lamp.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, always turn the projector off and disconnect the 
power cord before changing the lamp.   
To reduce the risk of severe burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 45 minutes 
before replacing the lamp.
To reduce the risk of injuries to fingers and damage to internal components, use caution 
when removing lamp glass that has shattered into sharp pieces.
To reduce the risk of injuries to fingers and/or compromising image quality by touching 
the lens, do not touch the empty lamp compartment when the lamp is removed.
This lamp contains mercury. Consult your local hazardous waste regulations to dispose of 
this lamp in a proper manner.
To assure optimal performance from the projector, it is recommended that you purchase a 
BenQ projector lamp for lamp replacement.
1.
Turn the power off and disconnect the 
projector from the wall socket. If the 
lamp is hot, avoid burns by waiting for 
approximately 45 minutes until the 
lamp has cooled.
2.
Turn the projector over. Then loosen 
the screws on the lamp cover.
3.
Remove the lamp cover from the 
projector.
Do not turn the power on with the lamp 
cover removed.
Do not insert your fingers between the 
lamp and the projector. The sharp edges 
inside the projector may cause injuries.
4.
Loosen the screw that secures the lamp.
