The “Lamp Failure” message appears
If the “Lamp Failure” message appears, one of the following issues is occurring:
l The lamp is overheating, likely due to blocked air vents.
l The lamp has reached the end of its life.
l The projector has an internal problem.
To resolve the “Lamp Failure” error
1. Restart the projector (see Your projector stops responding on the previous page).
2. Check the remaining lamp hours using the on-screen menu (see Adjusting projector settings on
page 73).
If the lamp has more than 2000 hours of use in Standard mode or 3000 hours of use in Economy
mode, it’s near the end of its lifespan.
3. Replace your lamp as described in Removing and replacing the projector lamp module on page
27.
4. If replacing the lamp module doesn’t resolve the issue, put the projector into Standby mode,
disconnect the power cable, and then contact your authorized SMARTreseller.
