ELPLP53  lamp replacement and time  

If you continue to use the Lamp after the replacement period has passed, the possibility that the lamp may explode increases.

Replace it with a new Lamp as soon as possible

When the Lamp is nearly ready for replacement, the images become darker and the color quality becomes poorer.

When this happens, replace the Lamp with a new lamp

Replacing the Lamp

It is time to replace the ELPLP53 Lamp when:

•The message "Replace the lamp."is displayed at the lower left of the

projection screen when you start projecting

The Lamp indicator flashes orange

The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate

•If you continue to use the ELPLP53 Lamp after the replacement period has passed,

the possibility that the lamp may explode increases. When the Lamp

replacement message appears, replace the Lamp with a new one as soon as

possible, even if it is still working.

•Do not repeatedly turn off the power and immediately back on. Turning

the power on and off frequently may shorten the lamp's operating life.

•Depending on the characteristics of the Lamp and the way it has been

used, the ELPLP53 lamp may become darkeror stop working before the lamp

warning message appears. You should always have a spare lamp unit ready

in case it is needed

How to replace the Lamp

The Lamp can be replaced even when the projector is suspended from

a ceiling

Warning

•When replacing the Lamp because it has stopped illuminating, there is a

possibility that the Lamp may be broken. If replacing the Lamp of a

projector which has been installed on the ceiling, you should always

assume that the Lamp is broken, and you should stand to the side of the

Lamp cover, not underneath it. Remove the Lamp cover gently.

•Never disassemble or remodel the Lamp. If a remodeled or reassembled

Lamp is installed into the projector and used, it could cause a fire, electric

shock, or an accident
