Lamp Replacement

When the projection lamp of the projector reaches its end of life, the Lamp replacement icon appears on the
screen and LAMP REPLACE indicator lights orange. Replace the lamp with a new one after it has cooled down.
The timing when the LAMP REPLACE indicator lights up is depending on the mode that you specified for the Lamp
control function.
