Warnings
Lamp replacement MUST be performed by a qualified service technician.
Cool the lamp completely and handle by the housing only.
Install the correct wattage lamp supplied by Christie (Refer to Table 1. Projector
Models) and read the Lamp Replacement Procedure in its entirety before proceeding.
Do not touch the glass surface of the lamp. Fingerprints left on the surface can lead
to an intense accumulation of heat known as a “hotspot”, which could potentially
result in the lamp shattering. It is recommended to wear clean, lint-free gloves and a
face shield when working with the lamp.

Lamp Replacement Procedure
Please read before proceeding.
WARNING
Always power down and unplug the projector prior to servicing.
Allow the lamps to cool before handling.
STEP 1 - TURN THE LAMP OFF
Press (power) to turn the projector off. Allow the cooling fans to stop automatically
(approximately five minutes) before proceeding with Step 2. This wait period is also
required to allow the lamp to sufficiently cool before handling.
STEP 2 - UNPLUG THE PROJECTOR
When the cooling fans have stopped, turn the
projector’s main switch off and unplug from the
main power source.
STEP 3 - OPEN THE LAMP DOOR
WARNING
Protective gear required. Wear a face shield.
Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver to loosen the ¼-turn
lock screws (2) securing the lamp door, located at
the rear of the projector below the input panel.
Refer to Figure 1.
STEP 4 - REMOVE LAMP RETAINING BAR
Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver to remove the two screws that secure the retaining bar along
the bottom edge of the lamp module. Refer to Figure 2. Swing the bar to the side - it is
hinged on the left.

STEP 5 - REMOVE THE LAMP MODULE
Firmly grasp the handle and pull the lamp module straight out of the projector, as shown in
Figure 3. Discard the lamp using safe disposal/recycling practices.
STEP 6 - INSERT THE NEW LAMP MODULE
WARNING
Improper installation could cause a
serious meltdown inside the projector.
NOTE
The lamp module must make full contact with the lamp connectors.
Increased resistance indicates initial contact with the connectors –
push firmly at this point to make full contact.
Align the base plate of the new lamp module under
both side alignment guides. Refer to Figure 4. Slide
the module fully into the projector in the same
orientation the old lamp module was removed.
Push with normal force until the resistance
increases and then firmly push the module another
½ inch.

The tightening order of the screws is
critical for proper lamp contact and alignment.

STEP 10 - RECORD THE SERIAL NUMBER OF THE NEW LAMP
IMPORTANT
Neglecting to enter a serial number causes the lamp timer to NOT
reset to “0” and may cause the lamp life limit to expire prematurely.
(a) Plug in the projector and power it up.
(b) In the Lamp menu, select “Change Lamp”. Refer to Figure 6, shown below.
(c) In the Lamp S/N text box, enter the serial number.
(d) Press ENTER to record the number and to reset the lamp timer. The timer will now
begin to log time for the new lamp.

Filter Replacement Procedure
NOTE
This procedure should be undertaken immediately
after Step 8 of the Lamp Replacement Procedure.
The filter, located at the front side of the projector, should be changed whenever the lamp
is replaced. If operating in an extremely dusty environment the filter may have to be
replaced sooner. Use the filter provided in the Christie approved Lamp and Filter Kit for the
specific projector model. For more information, refer to Table 1. Projector Models.
STEP 1 — TURN OFF THE PROJECTOR, COOL and UNPLUG
Before removing or installing a filter, turn off the projector and allow it to cool for five
minutes before unplugging.
STEP 2 - REMOVE FILTER DOOR
NOTE
When operating a Roadster S+20K
also remove the triangular metal filter brace.
Loosen the ¼-turn screw at the top of the filter grille/door. Lift the door away from the
projector. Refer to Figure 7.
