Lamp Information

Use and Replacement of the Lamp

When the Lamp Indicator lights up red or a message appears suggesting the time of

lamp replacement, please install a new lamp or consult your dealer. An old lamp could

For more detailed information, please refer to "LED Indicator Status & Illustration" on

page 24.

Caution

The Lamp and Temp indicators will light up if the lamp becomes too hot.

Turn off the power and let the projector cool for 45 minutes. If the Lamp or

Temp indicator still lights up when turning the power on, please contact

your dealer.

Lamp Replacement

Caution

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, always turn off the projector and dis-

connect the power cord before changing the lamp.

To reduce the risk of severe burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 45

minutes before replacing the lamp.

To reduce the risk of injuries to fingers and damage to internal components,

use caution when removing lamp glass that has shattered into sharp pieces.

To reduce the risk of injuries to fingers and/or compromising image quality

by touching the lens, do not touch the empty lamp compartment when the

lamp is removed.

This lamp contains mercury. Consult your local hazardous waste regula-

tions to dispose of this lamp in a proper manner.

Maintenance

BenQ PB7200/ PB7220/ PB7100 User’s Manual

Step 1. Turn off the projector. Disconnect the power cord from the outlet and the

projector.

Step 2. Loosen the screw and remove the lamp

cover. If the lamp is hot, avoid burns by

waiting 45 minutes until the lamp has

cooled.

Step 3. Loosen the 3 screws. (It is strongly

recommended that you use a

magnetic-head screwdriver.) Pull the

handle to remove the lamp housing. If

the screws are not loosened

completely, they could injure your

fingers. Do not insert your hand into

the box after the lamp is removed. If

you touch the optical components

inside, this could cause color

unevenness in projected images.

Step 4. Replace the lamp with a new one.

Insert it into the projector, and tighten

the screws firmly. Loose screws may

cause a bad connection, which may

result in malfunction.

Step 5. Re-install the lamp cover and tighten

the screw. Do not turn on the

power with the lamp cover

removed. Whenever the lamp is

replaced, reset the total lamp

operation time. Do not reset if the

lamp is not replaced as this could

cause damage.
