Replacing the Lamp
The lamp used as a light source is
consumable product. Thus replace the 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 lights up
(repeats flashing three times)
The lamp life varies depending on
conditions of use.
Use an LMP-E190 Projector Lamp as the
replacement lamp.
Use of any other lamps than the LMP-E190
may cause damage to the projector.
• If the lamp breaks, ask qualified Sony
personnel to replace the lamp and to check
inside.
• Pull out the lamp by holding the handle.
• When removing the lamp, make sure it
remains horizontal, then pull straight up. Do
not tilt the lamp. If you pull out the lamp
while 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.
When you replace the lamp after using the
projector, wait for at least an hour for the
lamp to cool.
2
Place a protective sheet (cloth)
beneath the projector. Turn the
projector over so you can see its
underside.
Be sure that the projector is placed on a
stable surface.

Loosen the screw with a Phillips
screwdriver, then open the lamp
cover.
For safety reasons, do not loosen any other
screws.
