Replacement of the Lamp Unit
The projection lamp used on this projector should be replaced after about the number of hours indicated below (or sooner, de-
pending on the usage conditions).
When the usage time exceeds 2000 hours*, the possibility for explosion increases, so the lamp is forcibly shut off.
When the usage time exceeds 1900 hou rs, replace the lamp unit (sold separately) before the usage time reaches 2000 hours.
Also, if the picture is dark, the lamp has reached the end of its service life. Replace it with a new lamp unit.
When the lamp usage time reaches 1900 hours
- Message projected by the projector -
This is displayed when the lamp usage time exceeds
1900 hours.
- Main unit control panel –
The lamp/cover LED flashes red.
The lamp usage time can be checked at the “Installation settings” menu.
When the lamp usage time exceeds 2000 hours
- Message projected by the projector –
The lamp does not light and nothing can be projected.
- Main unit control panel –
The lamp/cover LED lights red.
* The “Lamp usage time” that is displayed on the menu screen displays the usage time when the Eco mode is both ON and OFF
as a value converted to usage time when the Eco mode is OFF.
It is for this reason that when the projector has been used with the Eco mode always ON, the lamp replacement time guideline
will be at a lamp usage time of 1900 to 2000 hours on the menu screen, although the guideline for lamp replacement is 2900
to 3000 hours in terms of the actual usage time.
Maintenance
• Do not replace the lamp unit immediately after using the projector.
The lamp is high temperature and you could get burned. Disconnect the power plug from the outlet
and wait one hour or longer before replacing the lamp.
• Do not touch the glass portion of the lamp unit with your hands. Doing so could lower the brightness
and shorten the life of the lamp.
• There is a large number of glass parts such as the lamp and mirrors that are used inside the projec-
tor. If a glass part breaks, please exercise due caution in handling so that you are not injured by frag-
ments. Please request repair from the store of purchase.
WARNING
• Please specify the dedicated lamp unit (Model: IPLK-J1).
