The lamp is designed to project the image on the LCD pan- els. When the lamp no longer functions, replace it with a new one.

For lamp replacement, press the power button to power off, then wait for 60 seconds in stand-by mode to allow the lamp and LCD panels to cool. Then turn off the main switch, unplug the power cord from the outlet, and wait one hour so that the lamp is cooled to the touch.

How to reset the operation time meter

Caution:

Do not spill liquid on the lamp or place it near flam- mable objects or where children can touch it. Other- wise, it could cause injury or fire.

Be sure that the projector guide is firmly inserted be- tween the right and left lamp guides.

Important:

If the 3 buttons was not pressed at the same time, the lamp time may not be reset.

Please confirm the TEMP indicator illuminates about 2 seconds and the lamp time has been reset.

The projector will not turn on if you do not secure the lamp lid.

You must reset the operation time meter after you replace the lamp.

Do not reset the operation time meter unless the lamp has been replaced.

Interval of the lamp replacement

The recommended interval of the lamp replacement is about 1,500- 2,000 hours of consecutive use. However, the replacement inter- val may be shorter than such hours depending on the operating conditions. Decreases in the luminescence and/or the color bright- ness will also indicate that the light source lamp needs to be re- placed. When the lamp operation time exceeds the time elapsed until the lamp shutdown notice*1 is issued, the indicator will blink green and red alternately while the lamp is in operation (and while the lamp is not in operation, the indicator will blink red only). In addition, the lamp replacement message will appear on the screen for one minute every time the power is turned on. When the lamp operation time exceeds the time elapsed until the lamp shutdown warning*2 is issued, the replacement message*4 will appear on the screen for one minute every 10 hours of operation. When the lamp operation time exceeds the time elapsed until the lamp shutdown*3, the projector will automatically shut off for safety purposes and the power indicator will illuminate red. The projector can’t start operating again until the lamp is replaced and the operation timer is reset.

The projector automatically shuts off when the lamp op- eration time exceeds the time elapsed until the lamp shut- down*3. It can’t start operating again until the lamp is re- placed and the operation timer is reset.
