About the Lamp Indicator

The lamp indicator illuminates to indicate the status of the lamp.

Green: The lamp is on.

Blinking in green: The lamp is warming up

or shutting down.

Red:The lamp is shut down abnormally or the lamp should be replaced.

When switching on the projector, a slight flick- ering of the image may be experienced within the first minute after the lamp has been illumi- nated. This is normal operation as the lamp’s control circuitry is stabilising the lamp output characteristics. It should not be regarded as faulty operation.

If the projector is put into standby mode and immediately turned on again, the lamp may take some time to start projection.
