Care and maintenance 44-E NGLISH ENGLISH -45 When the TEMP indicator and the LAMP indicator are illuminatedThere are two indicators on the control panel of the projector which give information about the operating condition of the projector. These indicators illuminate or flash to warn you about problems that have occurred inside the projector, so if you notice that one of the indicators is on, turn off the power and check the table below for the cause of the problem.LAMP indicator TEMP indicatorProblem Indicator display Flashing (red) (Lamp unit on) The surrounding temperature or the temperature inside the projector has become unusually high.Illuminated (red) (Lamp unit on) The temperature inside the projector has become dangerously high, or the temperature has suddenly changed. BThe ventilation holes may be covered. BThe ambient temperature in the place of use may be too high. BThe air filter may be blocked. BUncover the ventilation holes. BSet up the projector in a place where the temperature is between 0 °C (32 °F) and 40 °C (104 °F) and the humidity is between 20% and 80% (with no condensation). [If you set the “FAN CONTROL” to “HIGH” (page 43), set up the projector in a place where the temperature is between 0 °C (32 °F) and 35 °C (95 °F) and the humidity is between 20% and 80% (with no condensation).] BTurn off the MAIN POWER switch by following the procedure on page 24, and then clean the air filter. (Refer to page 46.) Possible causeRemedyThe surrounding temperature or the temperature inside the projector has become dangerously high, causing the lamp unit to automatically shut off.Flashing (red) (Lamp unit off) TEMP indicator RemedyProblem Indicator display Flashing (red) It is nearly time to replace the lamp unit.Illuminated (red) An abnormality has been detected in the lamp circuit. BDoes “REPLACE LAMP” appear on the screen after the projector is turned on? BThis occurs when the operation time for the lamp unit is nearing 1 800 hours (when “LAMP POWER” has been set to “HIGH”). Ask your dealer or an Authorized Service Center to replace the lamp unit. Possible cause BThe power may have been turned on straight away after it was turned off. BWait for a while until the lamp unit cools down before turning the power back on again.BThere may be an abnormality in the lamp circuit. BTurn off the MAIN POWER switch by following the procedure given on page 24, and then contact an Authorized Service Center. LAMP indicator NOTE: BBe sure to turn off the MAIN POWER switch by following the procedure given in “Turning off the power” on page 24 before carrying out any of the procedures in the “Remedy” column. BIf the main power turns off after the TEMP indicator starts flashing, it means that an abnormality has occurred. Please contact an Authorized Service Center so that the necessary repairs can be made.
Care and maintenance ENGLISH -47 46-E NGLISH NOTE: BPlace the projector on top of a soft cloth so that it will not become scratched. NOTE: BBe sure to install the air filter before using the projector. If the projector is used without the air filter installed, dust and other foreign particles will be drawn into the projector, and malfunctions will result. BIf the dust cannot be removed by cleaning, it is time to replace the air filter. Please consult your dealer. Furthermore, if the lamp unit is being replaced, replace the air filter at this time also. Cleaning and replacing the air filterIf the air filter becomes clogged with dust, the internal temperature of the projector will rise, the TEMP indicator will flash and the projector power will turn off. The air filter should be cleaned after every 100 hours of use. #Turn off the MAIN POWER switch and disconnect the power cord plug from the wall outlet. Turn off the MAIN POWER switch according to the procedure given in “Turning off the power” on page 24 before disconnecting the plug from the wall outlet. $Gently turn the projector upside down. %Remove the air filter. Put your fingernails under the air filter and pull the air filter out of the projector.&Clean the air filter. Soak the air filter in water and wash out dirt by hand. 'Dry the air filter and install it to the projecter. NOTE: BDo not use detergent. BBe careful not to separate the air filter cover from the frame when washing the air filter. Air filter Replacing the lamp unitWarningWhen replacing the lamp, allow it to cool for at least one hour before handling it. BThe lamp cover gets very hot, and contact with it can cause burns.Notes on replacing the lamp unitBThe light generating lamp is made of glass, so dropping it or allowing it to hit hard objects may cause it to burst. Be careful when handling the lamp. BDispose of the removed old lamp with the same care that would be taken with a fluorescent light. BA Phillips screwdriver is necessary for removing the lamp unit.Lamp unit replacement periodThe lamp is a consumable product. Even when the full life of the bulb has not been exhausted, the brightness of the light will gradually decline. Therefore periodic replacement of the lamp is necessary. The intended lamp replacement interval is 2 000 hours, but it is possible that the lamp may need tobe replaced earlier due to variables such as a particular lamp’s characteristics, usage conditions and the installation environment. Early preparation for lamp replacement is encouraged. The lamp will automatically shut off when 2 000 hours of use have been reached because of a much greater chance of it exploding after this time. NOTE: BThe usage hours explained above are for use when the “HIGH” setting has been selected for “LAMP POWER” in the “OPTION” menu. If the “LOW” setting is selected, the brightness of the lamp will be less and life of the lamp can be extended. BWhile 2 000 hours is the intended replacement interval, it is not a period of time covered by warranty. NOTE: BIf you need the lamp replacement, please purchase the lamp unit from our customer service. Lamp unit product no.: ET-LAE500 CAUTION: BDo not use any lamp unit other than the one with the product number indicated above.
