5. Align the new lamp with the top and bottom guides on the left side of the lamp

compartment; see

Figure 5-4. Slide the lamp all the way in. A slightly harder push may

6. Pull (out) and turn the lamp lock lever (turned up in Step 3) a quarter turn clockwise to

“lock” the lamp in place.

7. Replace the lamp door and secure it with the screws.

8. Re-attach the power cord to the projector and power it up.

9. Record the New Lamp Serial Number: Perform the steps listed in Lamp Hours

Reset on page 73.

If you can’t turn the lamp lock into position, the lamp may not be

fully inserted. In this case, partially remove the lamp and try pushing

it back in again. Then, try switching the lock lever to the “lock”

position.

Always record the serial number of a new lamp. Do this only if you

have just installed a new lamp. This will ensure that the lamp timer

is not reset on an old lamp and that the number of hours logged on

the lamp is accurate.
