Replacing the Light-Source Lamp
■ Light-source lamp and lamp use time
The light-source lamp has a service life of approximately 1000 hours.
[Average lamp life: 1000 hours (brightness half-life)]
When the light-source lamp approaches the end of its service life, degradation progresses rapidly. In NORMAL MODE,
arrange for a new lamp (lamp unit) or replace the lamp after 900 hours. Depending on the usage conditions, the replacement
time may be shorter.
(In LOC and LPC modes, the brightness of the lamp is electrically controlled and the replacement time is extended. Arrange
for a new lamp (lamp unit) or replace the lamp after 1900 hours. Depending on the usage conditions, the replacement time
may be shorter.)
If, even after adjusting the brightness or color, the video image is dark or the color is not correct, replace the lamp early.
The lamp use time can be checked. Look at the “Lamp time” which is displayed with the “Information” option in the menu.
(Refer to page 40, 42.)
Contact the store from where you purchased the projector or the JVC service center for details about purchasing
replacement lamps.
