replacing SP-LAMP-057 projector lamp

Important Operating Considerations for Safety

• When the projector is ceiling mounted, wear protective eyewear to

prevent eye injury before opening lamp door.

• The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The SP-LAMP-057 lamp may

fail prematurely, or it may rupture with a popping sound if jolted,

scratched, or handled while hot. The risk of lamp failure or rupture

also increases as the lamp age increases; please replace the SP-LAMP-057 lamp when

you see the “Replace Lamp” message.

Replacing the projection lamp

The lamp hours timer in the Projector Info menu counts the number of

hours the lamp has been in use. Twenty hours before the lamp life expires,

the message “Replace lamp” appears on the screen at startup.

Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.

2 Wait 60 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly.

3 Remove the top front cover by (a) removing the screws on the two sides

of the projector, and (b) lifting the top front cover off.

4 Loosen the two captive screws that attach the lamp housing to the

projector.

5 Using the handle, carefully remove the lamp housing. Dispose of the

lamp in an environmentally proper manner in accordance with local

disposal laws.

6 Install the new lamp housing, pressing the SP-LAMP-057 lamp into place.

7 Tighten the captive screws.

8 Replace the top front cover and tighten both screws.

9 Plug in the power cord and press the Power button to turn the projector

back on.

10 To reset the lamp hour timer, navigate to the Status and Service menu and

select Reset Lamp Hours.

WARNINGS:

• Be extremely careful when removing the lamp housing. In the unlikely

event that the lamp ruptures, small glass fragments may be generated.

The lamp module is designed to contain most of these fragments, but

use caution when removing it.

• Before replacing a ruptured lamp, clean the lamp compartment and

dispose of cleaning materials. Wash hands after lamp replacement.

• When replacing the lamp while the projector is ceiling-mounted, wear

protective eyewear to prevent eye injury.
