About the Temperature Monitor Function:

If the projector starts to overheat due to set-up problems or a dirty air filter, “TEMP.” will flash in the upper-left corner of the picture. If the temperature continues to rise, then the lamp will turn off, the TEMPERATURE WARNING indicator will flash, and after a 90-second cooling-off period the power will shut off. Refer to page 31, “Maintenance Indicators,” when the “TEMP.” warning appears in the picture.

The cooling fan regulates the internal temperature, and its performance is automatically controlled. The sound of the fan may change during operation due to changes in the fan speed.

About the Lamp Monitor Function:

If the lamp is used for more than 1900 hours, “LAMP” will flash in yellow letters on the screen for 60 seconds, as shown on the right, when you turn the projector on. This is to alert you that it is time to replace the lamp. Replace the lamp according to the procedure given on page 32.

When the number of hours the lamp is used reaches 2000, the power automatically turns off and the projector enters the standby condition.

Refer to page 27, “Maintenance Indicators,” when the “LAMP” warning appears on the screen.
