when projection starts

.

A message will be displayed.

When the (Warning) indicator is flashing red at 0.5-second intervals

Flashes red at 0.5-second intervals

The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate

Tip :

The replacement warning message is set to appear after about 1400 hours of lamp use in order to maintain the brightness and quality of the projected images. If you continue to use the lamp after this period, the possibility of the lamp breaking becomes greater. When the lamp replacement message appears, replace the lamp with a new one as soon as possible, even if it is still working.

The warning message appears after about 1400 hours of use, but the actual life of each individual lamp will vary depending on the characteristics of the lamp and on the way it has been used. Some lamps may stop operating before 1400 hours of use, so you should always have a spare lamp ready in case.

Contact your dealer for a spare lamp.
