Replacing Consumables
This section explains how to replace the Remote Control batteries, the 
lamp, and the air filter. 
Replacing the Remote Control Batteries
If delays in the responsiveness of the Remote Control occur or if it does 
not operate after it has been used for some time, it probably means that 
the batteries are becoming drained. When this happens, replace them 
with two new AA size alkaline batteries.
Caution:
Make sure you read the Safety Instructions before handling the batteries. sp.165
ProcedureA
Remove the battery cover. 
While pushing the battery compartment cover catch, lift the cover 
up.

Replace the old batteries with new batteries.
Caution:
Check the positions of the (+) and (-) marks inside the battery holder to ensure the 
batteries are inserted the correct way.

It is time to replace the 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.
Replace the lamp indicated by the flashing indicator, either lamp 1 or 2.
•The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.Turn off this product when not in use to prolong the life of the projector.
Caution:
•The lamp replacement message is set to appear after the following time periods in 
order to maintain the initial brightness and quality of the projected images. 
sp.71
Power Consumption setting continuously set to Normal: About 2400 hours
Power Consumption setting continuously set to ECO: About 3400 hours
•Do not turn the projector on immediately after turning it off. Turning the projector 
on and off frequently may shorten the life of the lamps. 
•If you continue to use the 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. 
•Depending on the characteristics of the lamp and the way it has been used, the lamp 
may become darker or stop working before the lamp warning message appears. You 
should always have two spare lamp units ready in case they are needed.How to replace the lamp
The lamp can be replaced even when the projector is suspended from a 
ceiling.
Warning:
•When replacing a lamps because it has stopped illuminating, there is a possibility 
that the lamp may be broken. When replacing the lamp of a projector that is 
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.
