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.

Do not attempt to replace the lamp yourself. Contact the qualified service personnel for replacement.

The Lamp indicator light and Temperature warning light will light up if the lamp becomes too hot. See "Indicators" on page 65 for details.

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

The warning messages below are for reference only. Please follow the actual on-screen instructions to prepare and replace the lamp.

Status

Message

Install a new lamp for optimal performance. If the

 

projector is normally run with Economic

 

selected ("Setting Lamp mode eco function as

 

Economic or Smart Eco mode" on page 60), you

 

may continue to operate the projector until the

 

next lamp warning appears.

 

 

 

A new lamp should be fitted to avoid the

 

inconvenience when the projector runs out of

 

lamp time.

 

 

 

It is strongly recommended that you replace the

 

lamp at this stage. The lamp is a consumable item.

 

The lamp brightness diminishes with use. This is

 

normal lamp behavior. You can replace the lamp

 

whenever you notice that the brightness level has

 

significantly diminished.

 

 

 

The lamp MUST be replaced before the projector

 

will operate normally.

 

 

 

"XXXX" shown in the above messages are numbers that vary depending on different models.
