Timing Of Replacing The Lamp - InFocus X17 Reference Manual

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.
CAUTION
The Lamp indicator light and 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
page 49 for details.
The following lamp warning displays will remind you to change the lamp.
Status
The lamp has been in operation for 3000
hours. Install a new lamp for optimal
performance. If the projector is normally run
with Economic selected (See
mode as Economic" on page
continue to operate the projector until the
3950 hour lamp warning appears.
The lamp has been in operation for 3950
hours. A new lamp should be fitted to avoid
the inconvenience when the projector runs
out of lamp time.
The lamp has been in operation for 4000
hours.
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. If the lamp is not
replaced beforehand, it must be replaced
after 4000 hours usage.
The lamp MUST be replaced before the
projector will operate normally.
