Replacing the Lamp

The projection lamp typically lasts for about 2000 hours of use

(in high brightness mode) or 3000 hours (in low brightness mode). It is time to replace the lamp when:

■The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.

■The lamp light is flashing orange.

■The message Replace the Lamp appears on the screen when the lamp comes on. To maintain projector brightness and image quality, replace the lamp as soon as possible.

2.If the projector has been on, allow it to cool down for at least an hour (or until the lamp is cool).

3.Use the screwdriver included with the replacement lamp to loosen the screw holding the lamp cover (the lamp cover is located on top of the projector).
