A lamp has a finite product life. Using the lamp for long periods of time may cause the
pictures to darken or compromise the color tone. Note that each lamp has a different
lifetime, and some may burst or burn out soon after you start using them. Preparation of a
new lamp and early replacement are recommended. To prepare a new lamp, make contact
Teq with the lamp type number:
type number : dt01021
1. Turn off the projector, and unplug the power cord. Allow the
projector to cool for at least 45 minutes.

ceiling or if the lamp has broken, ask Teq to replace the lamp.
In case of replacement by yourself, follow the
