When the TEMP indicator and the LAMP indicator are illuminated

There are two indicators on the control panel of the projector which give information about the operating condition of the projector. These indicators illuminate or flash to warn you about problems that have occurred inside the projector, so if you notice that one of the indicators is on, turn off the power and check the table below for the cause of the problem.
