Timing of replacing the lamp
When the Lamp indicator lights up red or a message appears suggesting it is time to
replace the lamp, please install a new lamp or consult your dealer. An old lamp may
cause a malfunction in the projector and in some instances the lamp may explode. Go to
http://lamp.BenQ.com for a replacement lamp.
The LAMP indicator light and TEMPerature warning light will light up if the lamp becomes too
hot. Turn the power off and let the projector cool for 45 minutes. If the Lamp or Temp indicator
still lights up after turning the power back on, please contact your dealer. See "Indicators" on
page 57 for details.
The following Lamp warning displays will remind you to change the lamp.
