Turn off the power on the main unit. Wait several minutes, then unplug the power cord.
Wait at least 30 minutes after unplugging the power cord to allow the lamp to cool down before replacing it. To avoid being burned, do not touch the lamp receptacle once the lamp has been removed.
Take the new lamp out of the box. Do not touch the glass portion of the cover.
Remove the outside lamp cover.
Remove the lamp door. Turn the knob counterclockwise to OPEN and pull out the cover.
Pull out the lamp. Hook a finger through the loop of the lamp handle and pull the handle upwards. Then pull the lamp straight out.
Put the new lamp into its place. Mount the new lamp securely. Failure to do so may cause a fire or the screen to go dark.
Reattach the lamp door. Turn the knob back to CLOSE and secure the cover.
Put the outside lamp cover back in its place.
Select the Lamp Replacement option (Menu>Settings>Setup menu) and follow the on-screen procedure.
