of life, the Lamp replacement icon appears on the screen

CAUTION
When replacing the lamp because it has stopped illuminating, there is a possibility that the lamp may be

If replacing the lamp of a projector which has been installed on the ceiling, you should always assume that
the lamp is broken, and you should stand to the side of the lamp cover, not underneath it. Remove the
lamp cover gently. Small pieces of glass may fall out when the lamp cover is opened. If pieces of glass get
into your eyes or mouth, seek medical advice immediately.
