    Interval of lamp replacementThe recommended interval of lamp replacement is about 5000 hours*1*2 of consecutive use. Such interval differs depending on the operating environment and may be shorter than 5000 hours*1*2.
    Decrease in luminescence and/or color brightness indicates that the lamp needs to be replaced. When the lamp operation time exceeds 3750 hours*1, the indicator will blink alternately between green and red (while the lamp is lit; when the lamp is not lit, the indicator will be lit red only) and the lamp replacement message will appear on the screen for one minute everytime the lamp is turned on. When the lamp has been used for about 4750 hours*1, the replacement message (LAMP EXCHANGE) will appear on the screen for one minute every 25 hours*1 thereafter. When the lamp operation time exceeds 5000hours*1*2, the projector automatically shuts off and can’t be used until the lamp is replaced and the lamp operation time is reset.*1:  Duration when LAMP MODE in the QUICK MENU or the INSTALLATION menu or the EFFICIENT MODE menu is set to LOW. When it is set to STANDARD, this duration will be shorted.*2: When LAMP MODE is set to STANDARD, this duration will beshorted to 3000 hours.

    •	 When	an	extension	cord	is	being	used,	replace	it	with	the	supplied	cable	and	check	
    whether images are projected correctly. If images are projected correctly, use an RGB 
    signal amplifier along with the extension cord.
    Images are not displayed correctly. 
    ProblemSolution
    Projected images are 
    shaking.
    Projected images are 
    displaced. 
    •	 Check	that	the	cable	connected	to	the	external	device	isn’t	intermittent.
    •	 Connect	the	cable’s	plug	with	the	external	device’s	connector	firmly.
    •	 Press	the	AUTO	POSITION	button.
    •	 Some	computers	output	out-of-spec	signals	on	rare	occasion.	Adjust	the	SIGNAL

    Afterimages persist on 
    the screen.
    • This phenomenon is improved by keeping projecting an evenly bright image. (Such 
    “image burn-in” phenomenon where afterimages persist on the screen may occur if a 
    stationary image is kept displayed on the screen for a long time.)
    White dots are seen 
    on projected images. 
    Black dots are seen 
    on projected images. 
    •	 This	phenomenon	is	normal	for	a	DLP™	projector	and	is	not	a	malfunction.	(A	very	
    small number of pixels may visibly or invisibly be persistent all the ti\
    me, but they are 
    not	a	sign	of	system	malfunctions.	Over	99.99%	of	the	pixels	are	effective.)
    Fine streaks are seen 
    on projected images.
    •	 This	is	due	to	interference	with	the	screen	surface	and	is	not	a	malfunction.	Replace	
    the screen or displace the focus a little.
    •	 Vertical	or	horizontal	streak	noise	may	appear	on	the	projected	image,	depending	on	
    the type of the DVD player, game console or computer you use. In such a case, you 
    can reduce such streak noise by enabling the LPF.
    Projected images 
    become wavy. 
    •	 Connect	the	plugs	of	the	cables	to	external	devices	securely.
    •	 Keep	the	projector	away	from	equipment	generating	interfering	radio	waves.
    •	 When	the	keystone	adjustment	is	carried	out,	the	image	may	not	be	displayed	
    correctly because of the type of input signal. This isn’t a product malfunction. In this 
    case, readjust the keystone so that the amount of keystone correction is as small as 
    possible.
