In such cases, replace the lamp with a new one as soon as possible. Be sure to replace the lamp with a new lamp sold separately that is exclusive to this projector. Contact your dealer for purchase of the lamp.

Warning:
•Be careful not to drop the lamp fixing screws inside of the projector. Don’t put a metal piece or flammable object into the projector. Using the projector with any foreign object present inside may result in electric shock or fire. When you can’t remove the foreign object from the inside, contact your dealer for removal.
•Be sure to install the lamp securely. When the lamp isn’t installed properly, it won’t illuminate. Improper installation may also result in fire.
•Don’t shake the removed lamp or don’t lift it above your face. Your eyes may be injured by flying or falling glass fragments.
•Don’t replace the lamp immediately after use because the lamp cover will be very hot. You may get burned. Turn off the power using the POWER button. After the lamp goes out, wait about two minutes until the intake and exhaust fans for cooling the lamp stop rotating. Then unplug the power cord, and wait at least one hour to allow the lamp to cool down enough to the touch.
•Do not touch the lamp directly. It may break and cause injury or burn.
Interval of lamp replacement
The recommended interval of lamp replacement is about 3000 hours*1*2 of consecutive use. Such interval differs depending on the operating environment and may be shorter than 3000 hours*1*2. Decrease in luminescence and/or color brightness indicates that the lamp needs to be replaced. When the lamp operation time exceeds 2250 hours*1, the indicator will blink alternately between green and red (while the lamp is lit; when the lamp is not lit, the indicator will be lit red only) and the lamp replacement message will appear on the screen for one minute everytime the lamp is turned on. When the lamp has been used for about 2850 hours*1, the replacement message (LAMP EXCHANGE) will appear on the screen for one minute every 15 hours*1 thereafter.
When the lamp operation time exceeds 3000 hours*1*2, the projector automatically shuts off and can’t be used until the lamp is replaced and the lamp operation time is reset.
