Lamp
A lamp has finite product life. Using the lamp for long periods of time could cause 
the	pctures	darker	or	the	color	tone	poor.	Note	that	each	lamp	has	a	dfferent	
lfetme,	and	some	may	burst	or	burn	out	soon	after	you	start	usng	them.
	
Preparaton	of	a	new	lamp	and	early	replacement	are	recommended.	 To	prepare	
a	new	lamp,	contact	your	dealer	and	tell	the	lamp	type	number.
Type number = RLC-021
Replacing the lamp
1.	Turn	the	projector	off,	and	unplug	the	power	cord.	
Allow	the	projector	to	cool	for	at	least	45	mnutes.
2.	Prepare	a	new	lamp.		
If 	the 	projector 	s 	mounted 	on 	a 	ce lng, 	or 	f	the 	lamp 	
has 	broken, 	also 	ask 	the 	dealer 	to 	replace 	the 	lamp.
In case of replacement by yourself,
3.	Loosen 	the 	screw 	(marked 	by 	arrow) 	of 	the 	lamp 	cover 	
and 	then 	sl de 	the 	lamp 	cover 	to 	the 	s de 	to 	remove 	t.
4.	Loosen	the	3	screws	(marked	by	arrow)	of	the	
lamp,	and	slowly	pck	up	the	lamp	by	the	handles.
5.	Insert the new lamp, and retighten firmly the 3 
screws	of	the	lamp	that	are	loosened	n	the	prev
-
ous	process	to	lock	t	n	place.
6.	Slide the lamp cover back in place and firmly fas-
ten	the	screw	of	the	lamp	cover.
7.	Turn	the	projector	on	and	reset	the	lamp	tme	us-
ng	the	LAMP 	TIME	tem	n	the	OPTION	menu.	
(1)	Press	the	MENU	button	to	dsplay	a	menu.	
(2)	Pont	at	the	“Go	to	 Advanced	Menu	…”	n	the	menu	
using the ▼/▲ button, then press the ► button.

menu using the ▼/▲button, then press the ► but-
ton.
(4) Point at the “LAMP TIME” using the ▼/▲ button, then press the ► button. A  dalog	wll	appear.
(5) Press the ▲ button to select “RESET” on the dialog. It performs resetting the lamp	tme.

Please  check  and  clean  the  air  filter  periodically.  If  the  air  filter  becomes  clogged 
by  dust  or  the  like,  internal  temperatures  rise,  which  could  cause  a  fire,  a  burn  or 
malfuncton 	to 	the 	projector. 	When 	the 	 nd cators 	or 	a 	message 	prompts 	you 	to	
clean the air filter, comply with it as soon as possible. Note that the projector may 
shut	down,	when	the	projector	heats	too	much.
Please replace the air filter when it is damaged or too soiled. Preparation of a new 
air filter is recommended. To prepare a new air filter, contact with your dealer and 
tell the air filter type number.
Cleaning the air filter
1.	Turn	the	projector	off,	and	unplug	the	
power cord. Allow the projector to suffi-
cently	cool	down.
2.	Use	a	vacuum	cleaner	on	and	around	the	
filter cover.
3.	Hold the filter cover knobs while lifting it. 
The filter unit made up the filter cover and 
others	wll	come	off.
4.	Use a vacuum cleaner for the filter vent of 
the projector and the filter frame side of 
the filter unit.	
If the air filter is damaged or too soiled, re-
place	t	accordng	to	the	followng	procedure	
number	5	to	7.	Otherwse,	please	jump	to	
the	procedure	number	8.
5.	To remove the filter frame, hold the filter 
cover while holding and pulling the filter 
frame’s	knob	by	another	hand.
6.	Replace the air filter with new one. It is 
recommended that the fluted surface of 
the air filter faces the filter cover.
7.	Put the filter frame back. 
8.	Put the filter unit back into the projector.
