■ It is recommended that the lamp unit (sold separately) be replaced when the remaining lamp life

becomes 5% or less, or when you notice a significant deterioration in the picture and color quality.

The lamp life (percentage) can be checked with the on-screen display. See page 65.

■ Purchase a replacement lamp unit of type AH-55001 from your place of purchase, nearest EIKI

Hg LAMP CONTAINS MERCURY For State Lamp Disposal Information

Caution Concerning the Lamp

■ This projector utilizes a pressurized mercury lamp. A loud sound may indicate lamp failure. Lamp

failure can be attributed to numerous sources such as: excessive shock, improper cooling, surface

scratches or deterioration of the lamp due to a lapse of usage time.

The period of time up to failure largely varies depending on the individual lamp and/or the condition

and the frequency of use. It is important to note that failure can often result in the bulb cracking.

■ When the lamp indicator and on-screen display icon are illuminated, it is recommended that the

lamp be replaced with a new one immediately, even if the lamp appears to be operating normally.

■ Should the lamp break, the glass particles may spread inside the lamp cage or gas contained in the

lamp may be vented into the room from the exhaust vent. Because the gas in this lamp includes

mercury, ventilate the room well if the lamp breaks and avoid all exposure to the released gas. In

case of exposure to the gas, consult a doctor as soon as possible.

■ Should the lamp break, there is also a possibility that glass particles may spread inside of the

projector. In such a case, it is recommended you contact your nearest EIKI Authorized Dealer or

Service Center to assure safe operation.

Replacing the Lamp

Caution

• Do not remove the lamp unit from the projector right after use. The lamp will be very hot and may cause burn

or injury.

• Wait at least one hour after the power cord is disconnected to allow the surface of the lamp unit to fully cool

before removing the lamp unit.

■ Carefully change the lamp by following the instructions described in this section. *If you wish, you

may have the lamp replaced at your nearest EIKI Authorized Dealer or Service Center.

* If the new lamp does not illuminate after replacement, take your projector to the nearest EIKI Authorized

Dealer or Service Center for repair.
