The life of light-source lamps used for this unit
is about 2000 hours.
• The lamp life of 2000 hours is merely the aver-
age life span of light-source lamps and we do
not provide any guarantee for this figure. The
lamp life may not reach 2000 hours depend-
ing on the operating conditions. Deterioration
progresses rapidly when the remaining lamp
usage time is short. Get ready or replace with
a new lamp unit when the accumulated usage
time exceeds 1900 hours. Depending on the
operating conditions, the lamp may have to be
exchanged earlier. If the image is dark or colour
tone abnormal, replace the lamp as soon as
possible.
• You can also check the accumulated hours of
usage. Please refer to ‘Lamp Time’ in the ‘Infor-
mation’ menu.
• Setting ‘Power Save’ in the ‘Options’ menu to
‘On’ does not affect the usage time of the light-
source lamp.
Please consult your authorised dealer
when purchasing a new lamp unit.
Replacement Lamp (Lamp Unit) Part No.:
BHL5008-S
IMPORTANT: The lamp unit resembles
that used in other projectors of this
type. However the lamps are quite
different and the lamp housings
are not interchangeable. Install
only the correct lamp assembly for
this projector: attempting to force
a different lamp unit to fit may
permanently damage the projector
or cause a serious malfunction. It will
also void your warranty.
When the lamp usage time exceeds
1900 hours (but is under 2000 hours)
The LAMP indicator lights up and the TEMP
indicator starts blinking upon turning on the
power (standby mode).
A ‘Lamp replacement’ message will be dis-
played on the screen when projection starts.
• The message can be cleared by pressing any
button on the remote control or this unit.
When the lamp usage time exceeds
2000 hours (but is under 2010 hours):
The LAMP indicator lights up and the FAN
indicator starts blinking upon turning on the
power (standby mode).
When the lamp usage time exceeds 2000
hours during projection, a ‘Lamp replacement’
message will be displayed on the screen when
projection starts and the ‘Warning’ mark will
appear blinking.
• Press the [EXIT] button to clear the display.
However, the same Warning and Lamp re-
placement messages will be displayed after 1
hour.
• When the unit is switched to the standby mode
or turned off after the lamp usage time exceeds
2000 hours, it cannot be switched back to the
projection mode again.
In this case, replace with a new lamp unit and
reset the lamp time.
When the lamp usage time reaches
2010 hours
The unit exits from the projection mode (operating
mode) and switches into cool down mode.
• The LAMP indicator will light up and the TEMP
and FAN indicators will appear blinking.
• The projection mode (operating mode) cannot
be restored until a new lamp unit is installed
and the lamp time reset.
About Lamp Replacement
• If this unit is installed in a constricted place,
attempting to replace the lamp in situ may be
difficult or even cause injury. Move this unit to a
place large enough to perform the operation.
• Use only genuine replacement parts for the
lamp unit. Otherwise, malfunction may occur.
• Never attempt to re-use an old lamp unit. This
may cause marked performance deterioration or
lamp blowout, which may be explosive. Broken
pieces of the lamp outside the projector may
also be dangerous during lamp unit exchange.
• Do not replace the lamp immediately after the
projector has been in use. The temperature of
the lamp is still high and this may cause a burn.
Allow a cooling period of 1 hour or more before
replacement.
• Before replacing the lamp unit, pull out the
power plug from the outlet on the rear of the
unit while the Standby indicator is still on. Re-
placing a lamp with the plug connected to the
outlet may cause injuries or electric shocks.
