The lamp in the projector has a finite service life. The lamp operating life differs, depending on the usage
environment. It is recommended that the lamp be replaced after 4,000 cumulative hours of use. The lamp usage
time can be checked at the On-Screen display. (See page 26.)

• Replace the lamp when the picture starts becoming dark and the color contrast deteriorates.
