Replacing the Lamp and Air Filter
The life span of the projection lamp is about 2000 hours if
Brightness Control in the Setting menu is set to High (default), and
3000 hours if
Brightness Control is set to Low.
It is time to replace the lamp when:
■ The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.
■ The message Replace the lamp appears on the screen when the
lamp comes on and the lamp warning light flashes orange. To
maintain projector brightness and image quality, replace the lamp
as soon as possible.
■ The lamp warning light flashes red (the lamp is burnt out).

lamp is extremely hot immediately after use.
note
When you get a replacement
lamp for your projector, you
should replace the filter.
To check how long the lamp
has been in use, see
page 157.
Turn off this product when
not in use to prolong the life
of the projector.
warning
Let the lamp cool fully
before replacing it.
In the unlikely event that
the lamp has broken, small
glass fragments may be
present and should be
removed carefully to avoid
injury.
If the lamp is used after the
replacement period has
passed, the possibility that
the lamp may break
increases. When a lamp
replacement message
appears, replace the lamp
with a new one as soon as
possible, even if it is still
working.
