EN-39 Replacing the lamp This projector is equipped with a lamp to project images. This lamp is a consumable. It may burn out or its brightness may decrease during use. In such cases, replace the lamp with a new one as soon as possible. Be sure to replace the lamp with a new lamp separately sold that is exclusive to this projector. Contact your dealer for purchase of the lamp. Spare lamp VLT-XL6600LP Warning: • Be careful not to drop the lamp fi xing screws into the inside of the projector. Don’t put a metal piece or fl ammable object into the projector. Using the projector with any foreign object present inside may result in electric shock or fi re. When you can’t remove the foreign object from the inside, contact your dealer for removal. • Be sure to install the lamp securely. When the lamp isn’t installed properly, it won’t illuminate. Improper installation may also result in fi re. • Don’t shake the removed lamp or don’t lift it above your face. You may be injured in your eye by fl ying or falling glass fragments. • Don’t replace the lamp immediately after use because the lamp cover is very hot. You may get burned. Turn off the power using the POWER button. After the lamp goes out, wait about 2 minutes until the intake and exhaust fans for cooling the lamp stop rotating. Then turn off the main power switch, unplug the power cord, and wait at least 1 hour to allow the lamp to cool down enough to the touch. • Do not touch the lamp directly. It may break and cause injury or burn. Interval of lamp replacement The recommended interval of lamp replacement is about 4000 hours*1*2 of consecutive use. Such interval differs depending on the operating environment and may be shorter than 4000 hours*1*2. Decrease in luminescence and/or color brightness indicates that the lamp needs to be replaced. When the lamp operation time exceeds 3000 hours*1, the indicator will blink alternately between green and red (while the lamp is lit; when the lamp is not lit, the indicator will be lit red only) and the lamp replacement message will appear on the screen for 1 minute everytime the lamp is turned on. When the lamp has been used for about 3800 hours *1, the replacement message (LAMP EXCHANGE) will appear on the screen for 1 minute every 20 hours*1 thereafter. When the lamp operation time exceeds 4000 hours*1*2, the projector automatically shuts off and can’t be used until the lamp is replaced and the lamp operation time is reset. *1: Duration when LAMP MODE of the INSTALLATION menu is set to LOW. When it is set to STANDARD, this duration will be shorted. *2: When LAMP MODE is set to STANDARD, this duration will be shorted to 2000 hours. Caution: • Don’t remove the lamp for any purpose other than replacement. Unnecessary removal of the lamp may result in a breakdown. • This projector uses a high-pressure mercury lamp as the light source. The high-pressure mercury lamp may explode or fail to illuminate permanently because of an impact, scratch, or deterioration through use. The period of time until explosion or permanent failure to illuminate varies considerably from lamp to lamp, depending on operation conditions. Therefore, the lamp may explode soon after the start of use. • The possibility of explosion of the lamp increases if you use it beyond its replacement period. When the instruction of lamp replacement appears, replace it with a new one immediately even if the lamp is still lighting normally. • When the high-pressure mercury lamp explodes, glass fragments will scatter inside or outside the lamp box and the gas charged inside the lamp will diffuse inside or outside the projector. The gas inside the lamp contains mercury. Be careful not to breathe it or avoid it from entering your eye or mouth. If you should breathe it or if it should enter your eye or mouth, see a doctor immediately. • In the event that the high-pressure mercury lamp exploded, glass fragments may have been scattered inside the projector. Ask your dealer to replace the lamp and to inspect the inside of the projector. When you clean or replace the lamp by yourself, be sure to hold the handle of the lamp. You may get injured by glass fragments. • Don’t replace the lamp while the projector is installed on the ceiling. Glass fragments may fall from the projector, entering your eye or mouth causing injury. • When placing the projector upside down to replace the lamp or conduct maintenance, ensure that the projector is securely placed before working with it. • Be sure to use the lamp exclusive to this projector, VLT-XL6600LP. Use of other lamps may cause a failure of the projector.

Pull out the lamp box by the handle while holding the projector. Pull the lamp box out of the projector slowly. If it is pulled out quickly, the lamp may break scattering glass fragments. Do not spill liquid on the removed lamp box or do not place it near any ammable object or where children can reach to prevent injury or re. 7. Load a new lamp box securely into the projector in the right orientation. 8. Put the handle back to the original position. Make sure that the handle is locked. 9. Tighten up the screws (c) using a Phillips screwdriver (+). 10. Tighten up the screw (a) using a Phillips screwdriver (+) to secure the lamp cover. Reset of the lamp operation time 11. Plug the power cord into the wall outlet and turn on the main power switch. 12. Hold down the W, X, and POWER buttons on the control panel at the same time about 3 seconds. Important: Unless these 3 buttons are held down at the same time, the lamp operation time isn’t reset. Make sure that the STATUS indicator is lit twice and the lamp operation time is reset successfully. The projector doesn’t turn on if the lamp cover isn’t attached securely. Be sure to reset the lamp operation time whenever you replace the lamp. Do not reset the lamp operation time unless you replace the lamp. The lamp is fragile. If it is broken, be careful not to cut yourself with glass fragments. Contact your dealer for a new lamp. Caution: This projector uses a lamp that contains mercury. Disposal of the lamp or the projector with the lamp may be regulated due to environmental considerations.
