Replacing the Lamp
It’s time to replace the lamp when:
The projection image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.
The projector’s warning light flashes red at half second
intervals.
The message Replace the lamp appears on the screen
when you start projecting.
Contact your dealer or call Epson at (800) 873-7766 in the United States for a replacement
lamp. Request part number
V13H010L29. In Canada, call (800) 463-7766 for dealer referral.
Be sure to read the “Important Safety Information” on page 5 before replacing the lamp.
Warning: Let the lamp cool before replacing it. If the lamp breaks, handle the shards
carefully to avoid injury. If your projector is mounted on the ceiling, take it down before
beginning this procedure.
The lamp component contains mercury. Please consult your state and local regulations
regarding proper disposal or recycling, and do not place in the trash.
Caution: Never touch the lamp with your bare hands; the invisible residue left by the oil on
your hands may shorten the lamp life. Use a cloth or gloves to handle the new lamp.
Note: Although an air filter is included with the lamp, you cannot use it with the projector. If
you need to replace the air filter, ask for part number V13H134A04 when you contact your
dealer or Epson. See page 27 for details on ordering.
Follow these steps to replace the lamp:
1. Turn off the projector and wait for the P power light to stop flashing.
2. Unplug the power cord and any cables.
3. If the projector has been on, let it cool for at least an hour.
4. Press in on the two tabs and lift the lamp cover up and off.
