80 Replacing the Lamp
Replacing the Lamp
Replace the lamp with a new one if a message displayed on the projected image (page 90).
Use an LMP-E220 projector lamp (not supplied) for replacement.
• The lamp remains hot after the projector is
turned off. If you touch the lamp, you may
burn your finger. When you replace the
lamp, wait for at least an hour after
turning off the projector for the lamp to
cool sufficiently.
• Do not allow any metallic or inflammable
objects into the lamp replacement slot after
removing the lamp, otherwise it may cause
electrical shock or fire. Do not put your
hands into the slot.
•If the lamp breaks, contact qualified
Sony personnel. Do not replace the lamp
yourself.
• When removing the lamp, be sure to pull it
out straight, by holding the designated
location. If you touch a part of the lamp other
than the designated location, you may be
burned or injured. If you pull out the lamp
while the projector is tilted, the pieces may
scatter if the lamp breaks any may cause
injury.
1Turn off the projector, and disconnect
the AC power cord from a wall outlet.
2When the lamp has cooled
sufficiently, open the lamp cover by
loosening 1 screw.

information, including, but not limited to,
the geographic location of the DEVICE. You
acknowledge that for the purpose of
providing such services, SONY, the THIRD-
PARTY SUPPLIERS or their partners may
collect, archive, process and use such
location data, and that such services are

policies applicable to such services and
consent to such activities.
SONY, its affiliates, partners and agents will
not intentionally use Information to
personally identify the owner or user of the

consent. Any use of Information will be in
accordance with the privacy policies of
SONY or such third party. Please contact
applicable contact address of each area or

you may have fewer legal rights in relation to
Information processed and stored in, or
transferred to, such countries. SONY will
use reasonable efforts to take appropriate
technical and organizational steps to prevent
unauthorized access to or disclosure of
Information, but does not warrant it will
eliminate all risk of misuse of such

AUTOMATIC UPDATE FEATURE
From time to time, SONY or the THIRD-
PARTY SUPPLIERS may automatically
update or otherwise modify the
SOFTWARE, including, but not limited to,
for purposes of enhancement of security
functions, error correction and improvement

including, but not limited to, functions you
may rely upon. You acknowledge and agree
that such activities may occur at SONY’s
sole discretion and that SONY may
condition continued use of the SOFTWARE
upon your complete installation or
acceptance of such update or modifications.
Any updates/modifications shall be deemed

such update/modification.
ENTIRE AGREEMENT, WAIVER,
SEVERABILITY
This EULA and SONY’s privacy policy,
each as amended and modified from time to
time, together constitute the entire
agreement between you and SONY with
respect to the SOFTWARE. The failure of
SONY to exercise or enforce any right or
provision of this EULA shall not constitute a
waiver of such right or provision. If any part
of this EULA is held invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable, that provision shall be
enforced to the maximum extent permissible
so as to maintain the intent of this EULA,
and the other parts will remain in full force
and effect.

and jurisdiction of such courts.
EQUITABLE REMEDIES
Notwithstanding anything contained in this
EULA to the contrary, you acknowledge and
agree that any violation of or non-
compliance with this EULA by you will
cause irreparable harm to SONY, for which
monetary damages would be inadequate,

injunctive or equitable relief that SONY
deems necessary or appropriate in such
circumstances. SONY may also take any
legal and technical remedies to prevent
violation of and/or to enforce this EULA,
