Notes
 Always allow the lamp to cool 
for 5 minutes before: 
- disconnecting the power 
- moving the projector 
- changing the lamp
 There are no user-serviceable 
parts inside the lamp module. 
The whole module should be 
replaced.
 Only lamps supplied by 
Digital Projection and 
intended for this projector 
should be used. Fitting any 
other lamp could damage 
both projector and lamp, and 
will invalidate the warranty.
  At the end of life, the lamp 
will not strike, and the Issue 
indicator on the control panel 
will flash red. (Typical lamp life 
is 2000 hours)
 Do not use the lamp for more 
than 2000 hours, as this may 
cause serious lamp failure, 
damage the lamp module 
and cause extra cost on 
replacement. 
 Take care not to touch the 
glass surface of the lamp 
module. If you do accidentally 
touch the glass, it should be 
cleaned before use.
 HID lamps produce high 
intensity light. Do not look 
directly at the light coming 
from the lamp housing or the 
lens.
  Opening the lamp door will 
switch the projector OFF. The 
projector cannot be operated 
until the door is fully closed.

cleaning may be necessary.
