Timing of replacing the lamp
When the Lamp indicator lights up red or a message appears suggesting it is time to replace the lamp, please install a new lamp or consult your dealer. An old lamp may cause a malfunction in the projector and in some instances the lamp may explode.
The Lamp indicator light and Temperature warning light will light up if the lamp becomes too hot. See "Indicators" on page 59 for details.
The following lamp warning displays will remind you to change the lamp.

lamp time. |

significantly diminished. If the lamp is not |
|
replaced beforehand, it must be replaced after |
|
4000 hours usage. |

The lamp MUST be replaced before the projector |
|
will operate normally. |
