If this state continues, the lamp will turn off, the cooling fan will run and then the projector will enter standby mode. When you find the temperature warning indicator blinking, be sure to perform the measures described on page 61.
About the lamp indicator
When the remaining lamp life becomes 5% or less, (yellow) and “Change The Lamp” will be displayed on the screen. When the percentage becomes 0%, it will change to (red), the lamp will automatically turn off and then the projector will automatically enter standby mode. At this time, the lamp indicator will illuminate in red.
If you try to turn on the projector a fourth time without replacing the lamp, the projector will not turn on.
