Replacing the Lamp
The lamp used as a light source is a
consumable product. Replace this lamp with
a new one in the following cases.
• When the lamp has burnt out or dims
• “Please replace the Lamp and clean the
Filter.” appears on the screen.
• The LAMP/COVER indicator flashes in
red. (Repetition rate of 3 flashes)
The lamp life varies depending on
conditions of use.
Use an LMP-C200 Projector Lamp as the
replacement lamp.
Use of lamps other than the LMP-C200 may
cause damage to the projector.
If the lamp breaks, consult with qualified Sony
personnel for replacing the lamp and internal
checking.

Turn off the projector, and disconnect
the AC power cord from the AC outlet.
When replacing the lamp after using the
projector, wait at least an hour for the lamp
to cool.

Open the lamp cover by loosening the
three screws with a Phillips
screwdriver.
If you work with the projector hung on the

fall when you release the screws.

cover and pull it up to remove the lamp
cover.
