Indication of monitor lamp Three monitor lamps are provided at the top of main unit front to inform the user of the lamp replacement time and unusual internal temperature. These lamps indicate the degree of abnormality by combination of blinking and/or lighting lamps.
Cleaning and replacement of air filter If too much dust is deposited in the air filter, temperature inside the main unit will rise and the temperature monitor (TEMP) lamp blinks, eventually turning off the power supply. Clean the air filter section once every 100 hours or so as a guideline depending on the location of projector operation.
Replacement of lamp unit CAUTION Wait until the lamp is cooled sufficiently before replacing the lamp unit. Precautions on lamp unit replacement Be careful when handling a light source lamp. The lamp unit has high internal pressure. If improperly handled, failure might result. A used lamp unit may burst if it is handled violently.
Procedure of lamp unit replacement Caution • After 1 500 hours (4 000 hours when Long Life Lamp Units are used) of operating the same lamp, it is only possible to operate the unit for approximately 10 minutes. Steps 9 to 15 must be completed within ten minutes.
