When replacing the projector's lamp, it is important to

Disassemble the lamp reflector
Leave the lamp housing on the projector
Clean it with alcohol
Wait a few minutes after it is turned off

The correct answer is: Wait a few minutes after it is turned off

When replacing the projector's lamp, it is important to wait a few minutes after it is turned off before handling the lamp. The lamp can become very hot during operation, and allowing it to cool down for a few minutes before removing it reduces the risk of burns or damage to the lamp housing. This safety precaution is crucial when dealing with high-temperature components to ensure a safe and successful replacement process. Options A, B, and C are incorrect because disassembling the lamp reflector, leaving the lamp housing on the projector, and cleaning it with alcohol are not necessary steps and may even cause damage or problems during the replacement process.
