Replacing the
Lamp (s)
The lamps used as a light source are a
consumable product. Thus replace the
exhausted lamp (Lamp 1 or 2) with a new
one in the following cases.
• When the lamp has burnt out or dims
• When the message for replacement of the
lamp appears.
• The LAMP/COVER indicator flashes.
(Repetition rate of 3 flashes)
The lamp life varies depending on
conditions of use.
Use an LMP-F271 Projector Lamp as the
replacement lamp.
Use of any other lamps than the
LMP-F271 may cause damage to the
projector.
Caution
The lamp remains hot after the projector is turned
off with the ?/1 key. If you touch the lamp, you
may burn your finger. When you replace the
lamp, wait for at least an hour for the lamp to
cool.
Notes
• If the lamp breaks, consult with qualified
Sony personnel.
• Pull out the lamp by holding the knob. If you
touch the lamp, you may be burned or
injured.
• When removing the lamp, make sure it
remains horizontal, then pull straight out. Do
not tilt the lamp. If you pull out the lamp
while it is tilted and if the lamp breaks, the
pieces may scatter, causing injury.
1
Turn off the projector, and disconnect the
AC power cord from the AC outlet.
Note
When replacing the lamp after using the
projector, wait for at least an hour for the
lamp to cool.
2
Open the lamp cover by loosening the four
screws with a Phillips screwdriver.
3
Put your fingers in the slit under the side
panel of the projector, pull it, and then tip
the lamp cover up.
Tip it up until it clicks to fix the cover.
