Decreases in luminescence and/or color brightness will indicate that the light source lamp needs to be replaced.

When the lamp has been used for about 1,900 hours, the message “LAMP!!.” will appear on the screen for one minute. When the lamp has been used for about 2,000 hours, the projector will automati- cally shut off for the safety of the lamp and the power indicator light will be red. The projector cannot be used until the lamp has been replaced and operation timer has been reset.

The replacement span of the lamp depends on the environment. For replacement lamps, please con- tact your dealer.
