Replacing the Lamp

The projection lamp typically lasts for about 1500 hours of use. It is time to replace the lamp when:

■The projection image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.

■The lamp warning light is flashing red or orange.

■The message LAMP REPLACE appears on the screen when the projector lamp comes on (after about 1400 hours of use). To maintain projector brightness and image quality, replace the lamp as soon as possible.

Contact your dealer or call EPSON at (800) 873-7766 in the United States and Canada for a replacement lamp. Request part number ELPLP12.
