2. Check the following matters and perform the countermeasure properly.
Fault Protection
Is the ambient temperature 
in excess of 35°C (95°F)?
Please  use  the  projector  in  an  operation  ambient  temperature 
of 0°C (32°F) to 35°C (95°F).
Are  the  ventilation  vents 
blocked?
Rearrange the setup location of the projector and separate the 
projector  from  surrounding  objects.  See  "Do  Not  Block  the  air 
vents" on Page E-4.
Breakdown of an internal cir-
cuit could be the problem.Please request repair at your dealer of purchase.
* The projector is running properly when the TEMP LED turn off.
* When the LAMP/COVER LED is lit red at the same time, please replace the lamp. See Page E-43 for information about 
the replacement method.
* The flashing of the TEMP LED is a warning of a high temperature.
 When  the  usage  circumstances  have  not  changed  after  10  seconds  have  elapsed  since  the  start  of  the  flashing,  the 
TEMP LED changes to be lit steady and the lamp goes off.

Replacement of the Lamp Unit
The  projection  lamp  used  on  this  projector  should  be  replaced  after  about  the  number  of  hours  indicated  below  (or  sooner,  de-
pending on the usage conditions).
When the usage time exceeds 2000 hours*, the possibility for explosion increases, so the lamp is forcibly shut off.
When the usage time exceeds 1900 hou rs, replace the lamp unit (sold separately) before the usage time reaches 2000 hours.  
Also, if the picture is dark, the lamp has reached the end of its service life. Replace it with a new lamp unit.
When the lamp usage time reaches 1900 hours
- Message projected by the projector - 
This is displayed when the lamp usage time exceeds 1900 hours.
- Main unit control panel –
The lamp/cover LED flashes red.
The lamp usage time can be checked at the “Installation settings” menu.
When the lamp usage time exceeds 2000 hours
- Message projected by the projector –
The lamp does not light and nothing can be projected.
- Main unit control panel –
The lamp/cover LED lights red.
* The lamp usage time indicated on the menu screen is the time calculated by converting the usage times in the high brightness 
and eco modes to the equivalent in the high brightness mode.
 Because of this, if you always use the eco mode, the lamp should be replaced after an actual usage time of between 3900 and 
4000 hours, but the approximate time the lamp should be replaced is when the lamp usage time indicated on the menu screen 
is between 1900 and 2000 hours.
Maintenance
ON/STANDBYLAMP/COVERTEMP
INPUTPOWER
•  Do not replace the lamp unit immediately after using the projector.
 The  lamp  is  high  temperature  and  you  could  get  burned.  Disconnect  the  power  plug  from  the  outlet 
and wait one hour or longer before replacing the lamp.
• Do not touch the glass portion of the lamp unit with your hands. Doing so could lower the brightness 
and shorten the life of the lamp.
• There  is  a  large  number  of  glass  parts  such  as  the  lamp  and  mirrors  that  are  used  inside  the  pro-
jector.  If  a  glass  part  breaks,  please  exercise  due  caution  in  handling  so  that  you  are  not  injured  by 
fragments. Please request repair from the store of purchase or an AVIO customer support center.
WARNING
• Please specify the dedicated lamp unit (Model: IPLK-G1). CAUTION

1Remove the lamp unit cover
Using  a  minus  screwdriver,  loosen  the  screws  of  the 
lamp  unit  cover,  pull  in  the  direction  of  the  arrow,  and 
remove the cover.
2Loosen the mounting screws of the lamp unit
Using  a  minus  screwdriver,  loosen  the  2  screws  of 
the lamp unit.
3Pull out the lamp unit
Hold the handle of the lamp unit and pull it up and out.
4Install a new lamp unit
❶ Take the lamp unit and press it into the projector.
❷ Check that the two positioning prongs on the bottom of the 
lamp unit are securely fit into the two holes.
❸ Tighten the 2 mounting screws of the lamp unit.
❹ Align  the  2  tabs  located  on  the  lamp  unit  cover  with  the 
projector  and  attach  from  the  side  of  the  tabs.  Tighten  the 
mounting screws of the lamp unit cover.
Lamp Unit Replacement Procedure
To  prevent  burns,  wait  one  hour  or  longer  after  the  lamp 
has  been  switched  off  before  performing  the  following  pro-
cedure.

Maintenance
5Reset the lamp usage time
Please perform the operation indicated below in the standby mode (*).
6Check  that  the  indication  of  the  lamp  us-
age  time  has  become  "0  H"  as  illustrated 
in the diagram to the right.
If  the  usage  time  has  not  been  reset,  please  reset  it 
by following Step 5 again.
Check  the  lamp  usage  time  by  pressing  the  menu  button  of 
the  remote  control  to  display  the  menu,  then  use  the  scroll 
◀▶ button to display the setup setting.
Operation with the Projector
Press  the  INPUT,  PORTRAIT,  FREEZE  OFF  and  FREEZE/CAPTURE  buttons  si-
multaneously, then press the input selector and still picture buttons simultaneously.
Operation with the Remote Control
Resetting of the lamp usage time cannot be performed with the remote 
control.
The LAMP/COVER LED will flash green following this and projection will start.
* The power plug is plugged into a power outlet and only the ON/STANDBY LED is lit red.
• Do not reset the lamp usage time without replacing the lamp.
 The  likelihood  of  the  lamp  rupturing  becomes  higher  when  the  lamp  has  been  used  in  excess  of 
2000 hours.
CAUTION
If  the  lamp  is  used  without  resetting  the  usage  time,  the  correct  lamp  usage  time  will  not  be  known; 
therefore,  be  sure  to  reset  the  usage  time  after  lamp  replacement.  When  the  indication  exceeds  2000 
hours, the projector will be forced to turn off the projection lamp.
CAUTION
NOTE:
• In the interest of safety, the lamp will not light when the lamp unit cover is off.
• The lamp units that are available separately are sold together with an air filter as a set in a lamp kit; therefore, please also re-
place the air filter at the same time as lamp unit replacement. (See Page E-46.)
• Lamp units can be disposed of using the same disposal method as household fluorescent lamps in accordance with the regu-
lations of your region.

Air Filter Cleaning Procedure
Cleaning the Air Filter
The  air  filter  is  an  important  part  that  prevents  the  intrusion  of  dust  onto  the  optical  parts  and  other  parts  inside 
the projector. When the air filter becomes blocked, the internal temperature will rise and the rotation of the fan will 
also increase leading to a reduction of the service life or causing breakdown. In view of this, the air filter should be 
cleaned regularly (about once a month, when the projector is used 4 hours per day).
Note that the air filter should be replaced with a new one when it becomes difficult to clean out the dust.
2Remove the air filter cover B.
Press the hooks of the air filter cover B and lift to de-
tach it.
4Attach.
Follow  the  removal  procedure  in  opposite  order  to 
attach.
• Press  the  air  filter A  firmly  in  all  the  way  to  the 
back.
• Press the air filter cover B in until a click is heard.
NOTE: The air filter can be purchased together with the lamp unit in the separately sold lamp kit (model name IPLK-G1).
3Vacuum off the dust.
Use  a  vacuum  cleaner  to  vacuum  off  the  dust  from 
the front and back of the air filter.

Air filter care and precautions
•  Do not wash with water nor with hot water. Doing so will cause blockage.
• Do not wipe with a cloth or damp rag. Doing so will cause blockage.
• Be careful not to forget to install the air filter. Leaving the projector without a filter installed will allow 
dust to enter the inside of the projector and the image quality may worsen.
• When  the  air  filter  is  damaged,  be  sure  to  replace  it  with  a  new  air  filter.  Use  of  the  projector  with 
a  damaged  filter  will  result  in  dust  entering  the  inside  of  the  projector  and  this  will  cause  the  image 
quality to worsen.
