Turn Lamp Message ON
In the Lamp Menu (
), set
LAMP MESSAGE
to “
On
”. This permits a
warning message to appear upon power-up once your lamp limit setting expires.
NOTES: 1) It is recommended that the Lamp Message always remain set to
“
On
”. 2) When a lamp warning message appears, press
to temporarily
cancel the message. The message will continued to appear with each power-up
until you replace the lamp.
Dispose of old lamp
Locate the relief stem on the end opposite the glass window of the lamp. With a
pair of side cutters, make a tiny cut on the stem surface.
DO NOT COMPLETELY
CUT THIS STEM OFF. DIRECT THE STEM AWAY FROM ANYONE OR ANY NEARBY
SURFACE.
Using a pair of pliers, grasp the relief stem firmly and bend the stem sufficiently
to break the seal and allow the xenon gas to escape. Xenon gas is harmless and
can be allowed to escape into the atmosphere.
You can now dispose of the lamp module with regular waste. Note that the
integral lamp timer contains a small amount of mercury. This mercury must be
treated as hazardous waste if discarded in volume.
NOTE: If you do not feel comfortable with the above disposal procedure, ship
the old lamp module back to your closest Electrohome Service depot. Use the
same container that the new lamp module came in.
There are two identical air filters installed within the projector. Air drawn from
the environment passes through these filters before circulating throughout the
rest of the projector for cooling purposes. It is a good idea to replace both of
these filters whenever the lamp is replaced, or more frequently if your operating
environment is exceptionally dusty.
Follow the instructions below to replace the filters.
WARNING
Only use filters supplied by Electrohome.
Follow Steps 1-3 in the lamp procedure (see 4.4, Replacing the Lamp) to power
down the projector, unplug it and (where applicable) remove the lid.
