The projector is overheating, which turns the lamp off automatically.
Wait until the projector switches to standby mode (about 5 minutes). Make
sure there is plenty of space around and under the projector for ventilation.
The air filter may be clogged. Clean or replace the air filter as described on
pages 76 to 77.
If you’re using the projector above an altitude of 4,900 feet (1,500 meters),
turn on High Altitude Mode in the Operation menu (see page 66).
If the projector continues to overheat after you clean the air filter, stop
using the projector, disconnect the power cord, and contact Epson for help
as described on page 96.

The lamp may be burnt out. First make sure the lamp cover is securely
installed. If that’s not the problem, the air filter may be clogged. Clean or
replace the air filter as described on pages 76 to 77.
If this does not resolve the problem, let the lamp cool and then remove it. If
the lamp is cracked, replace it as described on page 78. If the lamp is not
cracked, reinstall it. If reinstalling doesn’t work, replace the lamp.
If you’re using the projector above an altitude of 4,921 feet (1,500 meters),
turn on High Altitude Mode in the Operation menu (see page 66).
If none of these suggestions resolves the problem, contact Epson as
described on page 96.
