Lamp replacement (Continued)
Notes and Precautions
•The Lamp time item in the Status display menu indicates the time of lamp use (as a
rough guide).
• It is recommended that the lamp be replaced after 2,000 hours of use. When [Lamp
time]!reaches 2,000 hours, a message will appear. (After!2,000 hours, they will appear
when the power is on at the first time every 100 hours.) This!display disappears when
you press the [MENU] button.
• Attach the lamp cover correctly so that it is not loose. If it is not attached correctly,!the
projector may fail to be powered on or the lamp may fail to come on.
• Always replace the lamp with a new one.
• The lamp is made out of glass. Do not touch the glass surface with your bare hands,
bang it, or scratch it. (Dirt, jolts, scratches and the like could break the lamp.)
Used Lamps
