The life span of the lamp is about 3000 hours if the Color Mode is consistently set to Theatre Black, and 2000 hours if any other Color Mode is used. If the number shown is close to the limit, make sure you have a spare lamp handy.

Note: Lamp life results vary depending on environmental conditions and usage. Turn the projector off when not in use. Continuous 24-hour-a-day use may reduce the overall life of the product.

After you change the lamp, you need to reset the lamp timer. See pages 27 to 29 for instructions on replacing the lamp and resetting the timer.

Note: The Lamp Hours shows 0H (zero hours) until you’ve used the lamp for at least 10 hours.
