Timing of replacing the lamp
When the
Lamp indicator
lights up red or a message appears suggesting it is time to
replace the lamp, please install a new lamp or consult your dealer. An old lamp may cause a
malfunction in the projector and in some instances the lamp may explode.
Go to
http://lamp.benq.com
for a replacement lamp.
The
LAMP indicator light
and
TEMP (Temperature) warning light
will light up if the lamp becomes
too hot. Turn the power off and let the projector cool for 45 minutes. If the Lamp or Temp indicator still lights
up after turning the power back on, please contact your dealer. See
"Indicators" on page 53
for details.
The following Lamp warning displays will remind you to change the lamp.
