Replacing the lamp
The projector will detect the lamp life itself. It will show you a
warning message “Lamp is approaching the end of its useful life in
full power operation. Replacement Suggested!” When you see this
message, changing the lamp as soon as possible.
Make sure the projector has been cooled down for at least 30 minutes
before changing the lamp.
Do not operate the lamp longer than rated lifetime. Otherwise it
could be high possibility of lamp shattering. A compulsive putting-
out-lights function should operate by the projector side so that the
lamp after a life is not used after that for a long time. We recommend
attachment of a timer etc., and attachment of a lamp exchange display
function to a projector lighting time management of a lamp.
(Recommendation of a regular shutdown).
