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.

Go to http://lamp.benq.com for a replacement lamp.

The Lamp indicator light and Temperature warning light will light up if the lamp becomes too hot. See "Indicators" on page 55 for details.

The following lamp warning displays will remind you to change the lamp.
