If the lamp fails to ignite, the projector will automatically re-try ignition using 100%
of the maximum power acceptable for the lamp. If this re-try also fails, and there is
no error code indicating a specific problem such as an open lamp door or an over-
temperature condition, the lamp size may be incorrectly defined. For instance, the
defined "Lamp Size" may be 2 kW when a 6 kW lamp is present. To check the
"Lamp Size" setting, press
the rear of the projector will show a "Lamp Size" of 2000, 3000, 4500 or 6000 watts,
depending on its most recent setting (factory default=6000). Enter password (unless it
has been turned off) and select the lamp that is currently installed. If the lamp still
will not ignite, a qualified service technician should check all lamp connections and,
if OK, replace the lamp.
