■Lamp Unit Replacement
The target replacement time of the lamp used on this projector is 950 hours. (This may be
shortened depending on the conditions of use.)
Since there is a high possibility of lamp explosion if the cumulative usage time exceeds
more than 1000 hours, the power to the lamp is cut off at 1000 hours.
In the following instances where the cumulative usage time of the lamp is more than 950
hours, replace the lamp unit (sold separately). When the projected image becomes dark or
projected colors are unsatisfactory, the lamp has reached the end of its life. In this case,
replace the lamp unit.
● When the message shown below is displayed while the lamp is lit (This appears when the
cumulative usage time of the lamp is more than 950 hours.)
● When "Lamp usage time" on the menu display screen has reached 950 hours, the LAMP
LED blinks.
The lamp usage time is displayed in the “Lamp setting” menu for confirmation. (For
details, see page 36.)
● When the LAMP LED is lit without the lamp lighting.
(When the cumulative usage time of the lamp is more than 1000 hours.)
WARNING
• Do not replace the lamp unit immediately after you have turned the projector off.
The lamp becomes very hot and may cause a burn injury. Turn off the lamp, unplug the plug from the power outlet,
and then wait at least one hour before replacing the lamp.
• Do not touch the lamp with your hands. This may result in reduced brightness or reduced lamp life.
• This projector contains many glass components (e.g. a lamp and mirrors). If these glass components break,
handle them with care to prevent personal injury from glass fragments. Contact your dealer or a Nippon Avionics
service center for repair.
