Replacing the Lamp Cartridge
NOTE: The projector lamp has its usable life.
The rated lamp life is about 1000 hours. How-
ever, it may become shorter depending on the
conditions of usage.
(The rated lamp life is the average life of the
lamps produced and tested, under the test con-
ditions of our company, for a long term.)
Ⅵ After the lamp has been operating for 1000 hours or longer, the STATUS indicator
will light and the message "Replace The Lamp" will appear on the screen. Should
this happen, turn off the projector and replace the lamp cartridge with a new one.
The projector will not turn on after 1100 hours.
