DT00331 Lamp Life

Projector lamps have a finite life. The image will become darker, and hues will become weaker,

after a lamp has been used for a long period of time. 

Replace the lamp if the LAMP indicator is red, or the CHANGE THE LAMP message appears when the projector is switched ON.

NOTE:

The LAMP indicator is also red when the lamp unit reaches high temperature. Before replacing the

lamp, switch power OFF, wait approximately 20 minutes, and switch power ON again. If the LAMP

indicator is still red, replace the lamp.

Replacing the DT00331 Lamp

1. Switch the projector OFF, remove the power cord from the

power outlet, and wait at least 45 minutes for the unit to cool.

2. Prepare a new lamp.

3. Check that the projector has cooled sufficiently, and gently

turn it upside down.

4. Loosen the two screws as shown in the diagram, and remove

the lamp cover.

5. Loosen the three screws, and gently remove the lamp while

holding the grips. Touching the inside of the lamp case may

result in uneven coloring.

6. Install the new lamp and tighten the three screws firmly.

Also steadily push the opposite side of the screwed lamp into

the unit.

7. Replace the lamp cover in position and tighten the two

screws firmly.

8. Gently turn the projector right-side up

Resetting the Lamp Timer

Reset the lamp timer after replacing the lamp. When the lamp has been replaced after the LAMP

over 10 minutes.

Do not reset the lamp timer without replacing the lamp. Reset the lamp timer always when replacing

the lamp. The message functions will not operate properly if the lamp timer is not reset correctly.
