Replacing the Lamp

Replace the lamp with a new one if a message displayed on the projected image or the LAMP/
COVER indicator notifies you to replace the lamp.
The projector incorporates two lamps. Before replacement, check which lamp is to be replaced.
Use an LMP-F330 projector lamp (not supplied) for replacement.

turned off. If you touch the lamp, you may
burn your finger. When you replace the
lamp, wait for at least an hour after
