(VPL-ES2) Projector Lamp as the replacement
lamp. Use of any other lamps than the LMP-
E180 or the LMP-E150 may cause damage of
the projector.

disconnect the AC power cord from the AC
outlet before replacing the lamp.

The lamp becomes a high temperature after
turning off the projector with the I/1 key. If you
touch the lamp, you may scald your finger.
When you replace the lamp, wait for at least
an hour for the lamp to cool.

service center.
• Pull out the lamp by holding the handle. If you
touch the lamp, you may be burned or injured.

scatter, causing injury.
