Changing the Lamp
The projector’s lamp life is approximately 1500 hours of use. The 
projector automatically monitors the lamp life. After 1500 hours of 
use, the projector displays a message that the lamp life is over and 
the lamp needs to be replaced.
When you see the message, please change the lamp as soon as 
possible.
Warning—The lamp module is the only user-replaceable part in 
the projector. To prevent electric shock, do not open the projector 
case.
Warning—To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not drop the 
lamp module or touch the lamp bulb. The high-pressure lamp 
module may explode if handled incorrectly, and may shatter and 
cause injury if dropped.
Warning—The lamp compartment is hot! Allow the projector to 
cool down at least thirty minutes.
To change the lamp module
1. Turn off the projector’s power.
2. Disconnect the power cord.
3. Let the projector lamp cool completely, at least thirty minutes.
4. Use a screwdriver to remove the cover screw.

Troubleshooting
If you try the troubleshooting procedures described in this section 
and the problem persists, you may have a malfunctioning projector. 
Refer to the technical support card that you received with your 
projector or contact the retailer where you purchased your 
projector. Also visit our web site at www.xeroxprojectors.com for 
additional technical information. 
Problem: No image appears on the screen.
Check for one of these possible problems:
•Is the video adapter loose? Make sure the video adapter is 
properly secured at the back of the projector with the two 
thumbscrews.
•Are the cables loose or not plugged in securely? Inspect 
the cable connections. Make sure the cables are plugged in 
securely.
•Are any of the pins on the cables bent or broken? Inspect 
the pins on the cable plugs to make sure none of the pins are 
bent or broken.
•Is the projection lamp securely installed? Check that the 
projection lamp is securely installed, especially if you just 
changed it. See the section “Changing the Lamp” on page 27 
for details about the lamp installation.
•Is the power on? Check that the projector’s power switch is 
turned on and that the power cord is plugged in securely to a 
working power outlet. If you are using a power strip, make sure 
it is turned on and plugged in.
•Is the lens cap still on? Make sure you have removed the 
lens cap from the lens at the front of the projector.
•Are the Brightness and Contrast set incorrectly? Adjust the 
Brightness and Contrast until a picture appears. See “Adjust 
the Projector Image” on page 21.
If none of the above solves the problem, press the Source button 
on the remote control to select the correct video source.
Problem: The image is incorrectly displayed, or scrolls, 
or is only partially displayed.
Press the Auto button on the remote control, or the
Auto/Enter button on the projector control panel.
If the image is still not projected correctly, the resolution setting of 
your computer screen is too high (greater than 1024 x 768) and 
you must reset it.

Maintenance
Problem: When the projector is connected to a DVD 
player, playing a film with a 16:9 aspect ratio makes the 
image looks stretched out.
Try one of these possible solutions:
• Reset your DVD player to display at a 4:3 aspect ratio. See the 
DVD player user’s guide for the steps to adjust its aspect ratio.
• Using the OSD Menus, go to the Display Menu page and select 
a new Proportion. Change the Proportion to 4:3.
Problem: The colors of the projected image look different 
than the colors of the image on the computer screen.
Use the OSD Image and Display menus to adjust the colors.
Problem: Image is reversed.
Use the OSD Management Menu to change the projection 
direction to display the image properly.
Problem: No sound.
Make sure the audio cables and other cables are connected 
properly.
Problem: Remote control does not work.
Check for one of these possible problems:
•Are you too far from the projector? The remote control has a 
range of 29.5 ft (9m). Move closer to the projector and try the 
remote control again
•Is anything blocking the infrared sensors on the projector? 
Make sure the infrared sensors are not covered or blocked 
from receiving signals from the remote control.
•Are the batteries in the remote control dead? Replace the 
batteries in the remote control.
Problem: Lamp burns out or make a popping sound.
When the lamp reaches its end of life, it will burn out and may 
make a loud popping sound. If this happens, the projector will not 
turn on until the lamp module has been replaced. See “Changing 
the Lamp” on page 27 to replace the lamp. If the lamp burns out 
while in the projector, it may crack and scatter glass shards into the 
projector which can block a blower fan and stop it from turning.
