Maintenance and Cleaning

Cleaning the Filters

Filter prevents dust from accumulating on the optical elements inside the projector. Should the filters become
clogged with dust particles, it will reduce cooling fans’ effectiveness and may result in internal heat buildup
and adversely affect the life of the projector. If a “Filter warning” icon appears on the screen, clean the filters
immediately. Clean the filters by following the steps below.

Turn off the projector, and unplug the AC power cord

CAUTION

CAUTION

When replacing the lamp because it has stopped illuminating, there is a possibility that the lamp may be
broken.
If replacing the lamp of a projector which has been installed on the ceiling, you should always assume that
the lamp is broken, and you should stand to the side of the lamp cover, not underneath it. Remove the
lamp cover gently. Small pieces of glass may fall out when the lamp cover is opened. If pieces of glass get
into your eyes or mouth, seek medical advice immediately.

Follow these steps to replace the lamp.

Unplug the AC power cord. Let the projector cool for at

1

least 45 minutes.

Loosen the screw and open the lamp cover.

ORDER REPLACEMENT LAMP

Replacement lamp can be ordered through your dealer. When ordering a projection lamp, give the following
information to the dealer:

●

Model No. of projector

● Replacement Lamp Type No. : 1300046500

: BX27C-SL / BX30C-SL

LAMP HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

This projector uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly.
Improper handling may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.

● Lamp life may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no guarantee

of the same life for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period of time
than other similar lamps.

● If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if the LAMP REPLACE indicator lights

up, replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the projector has cooled down.
(Follow carefully the instructions in the Lamp Replacement section of this manual.) Continuous use of
the lamp with the LAMP REPLACE indicator lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.

● A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its

lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or conditions in
which the projector and lamp are being used.

IF A LAMP EXPLODES, THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN .

If a lamp explodes, disconnect the projector’s AC plug from the AC outlet immediately. Contact an
authorized service station for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp. Additionally, check
carefully to ensure that there are no broken shards or pieces of glass around the projector or coming out
from the cooling air circulation holes. Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully. No one
should check the inside of the projector except those who are authorized trained technicians and who
are familiar with projector service. Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those
who are not appropriately trained to do so, may result in an accident or injury caused by pieces of broken
glass.
