Epson 9300i - Manual (Page 103)

Maintaining the Projector 103
Replacing the Lamp
The projection lamp lasts up to 7000 hours. (Lamp life results will
vary depending upon environmental conditions and usage.) Turn the
projector off when not in use. Continuous 24-hour-a-day use may
reduce the overall life of this product.
When the lamp nears the end of its life (as determined from projector
usage), the message
LAMP REPLACE appears on the screen and the
lamp warning light flashes orange. To maintain projector
brightness and image quality, replace the lamp as soon as possible.
It is also time to replace the lamp when:
■ The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.
■ The lamp warning light flashes red (the lamp is burnt out).
