The WARNING indicator shows the state of the function which protects the projector. Check the state of the
WARNING indicator and the POWER indicator to take proper maintenance.
✔ Note:
After the temperature inside the projector returns
to normal, the WARNING indicator still continues
to blink. When the projector is turned on again, the
WARNING indicator stops blinking.
Then check the matters below:
– Did you provide appropriate space for the projector to
be ventilated? Check the installing condition to see if
ventilation slots are not blocked.
– Is the projector not installed near the ventilation duct of
air-conditioning equipment which may be hot? Install
the projector away from the ventilation duct of air-
conditioning equipment.
– Is the air filter clean? Clean the air filter periodically.

Maintenance and Cleaning
RECOMMENDATION
We recommend avoiding dusty/smoky
environments when operating the projector. Usage
in these environments may cause a poor image
quality.
When using the projector under dusty or smoky
conditions, dust may accumulate on a lens, LCD
panels, or optical elements inside the projector. This
condition may degrade the quality of a projected image.
When the symptoms above are noticed, contact your
authorized dealer or service station for proper cleaning.

Lamp Replacement
When the life of the projection lamp of this projector draws Top Control
to an end, the LAMP REPLACE indicator emits a yellow
light. If this indicator lights yellow, replace the lamp with a
new one promptly.
CAUTION
Allow a projector to cool, for at least 45 minutes before you open the Lamp cover. The inside of the
projector can become very hot.
CAUTION
For continued safety, replace with a lamp of the same type. Do not drop a lamp or touch a glass
bulb! The glass can shatter and may cause injury.
CAUTION
When replacing the lamp because it has stopped illuminating, there is a possibility that the lamp may
be broken.
If replacing the lamp of a projector which has been installed on the ceiling, you should always
assume that the lamp is broken, and you should stand to the side of the lamp cover, not underneath
it. Remove the lamp cover gently. Small pieces of glass may fall out when the lamp cover is opened.
If pieces of glass get into your eyes or mouth, seek medical advice immediately.

Maintenance and Cleaning
● Lamp life may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no guarantee of
the same life for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period of time than other
similar lamps.
● If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if the LAMP REPLACE indicator lights up,
replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the projector has cooled down. (Follow carefully the
instructions in the Lamp Replacement section of this manual.) Continuous use of the lamp with the LAMP
REPLACE indicator lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.
● A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its lifetime
draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or conditions in which the projector
and lamp are being used.

Appendix
Troubleshooting
Before calling your dealer or service center for assistance, check the items below once again.
– Make sure you have properly connected the projector to peripheral equipment as described on
pages15-17.
– Make sure all equipment is connected to AC outlet and the power is turned on.
– When you operate the projector with a computer and it does not project an image, restart the computer.
