The temperature light is red.
The projector is overheating, which turns the lamp off
automatically. Let the projector cool for a few minutes, then turn
it back on. Make sure there is plenty of space around and under
the projector for ventilation. If it continues to overheat, you may
need to change the air filter.
The air filter may be clogged. Clean it as described in Chapter 4
and then let the projector cool for awhile. If this does not work,
you may need to change the air filter. See Chapter 4.
If the projector continues to overheat after you clean the air filter,
the problem may be caused by damage to the cooling fan or
internal circuits. Contact EPSON for help.
