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 Temperature warning light will light up if the lamp becomes too
hot. See
"Indicators" on page 64
for details.
The following lamp warning displays will remind you to change the lamp.
The warning messages below are for reference only. Please follow the actual on-screen
instructions to prepare and replace the lamp.
Status
Message
Install a new lamp for optimal performance. If
the projector is normally run with
Economic
selected (See
"Setting Lamp mode as Economic
or SmartEco" on page 59
), you may continue to
operate the projector until the next lamp
warning appears.
A new lamp should be fitted to avoid the
inconvenience when the projector runs out of
lamp time.
It is strongly recommended that you replace
the lamp at this age. The lamp is a consumable
item. The lamp brightness diminishes with use.
This is normal lamp behavior. You can replace
the lamp whenever you notice that the
brightness level has significantly diminished.
The lamp MUST be replaced before the
projector will operate normally.
