    							REPLACING THE LAMP (FOR SERVICE ONLY)

    ■ The light-source lamp and its lamp time
    The light-source lamp has a service life. The life of lamps currently used for this projector is about 2000 hours.
    [Average lamp life: 2000 hours]
    When  the  light-source  lamp  approaches  the  end  of  its  service  life,  deterioration  progresses  rapidly.  Please  contact  your 
    Vidikron  dealer  to  install  a  new  lamp  when  the  accumulated  lamp  time  exceeds  1900  hours.  Depending  on  the  operating 
    conditions, the lamp may have to be changed earlier. If the image remains dark or the tone, unusual, even after adjustment, 
    please replace the lamp as soon as possible. You can check the accumulated used hours of the lamp via the “Lamp time” 
    item in the “Signal Info” menu.
    • When lamp time exceeds 1000 hours:
     When the accumulated lamp time reaches 1000, a message indicating “1000h” will appear on the projected  
     screen.
     - Press [EXIT] button to delete the message.
    • When lamp time exceeds 1900 hours:
     - When the accumulated lamp time reaches 1900 hours:
     The [LAMP] indicator on the projector lights up.
     - When the accumulated lamp time exceeds 1900 hours:
     “Lamp replacement” appears on the screen.
     * Press [EXIT] button to delete the message.
    • When the lamp time exceeds 2000 hours:
     The lamp indicator on the projector blinks.
     “Warning” and “Lamp replacement” appear on the screen; the word “Warning” blinks.
     - To cancel the message, press the [EXIT] button.
     However, the same message will appear again every one hour.
     - Once the lamp time exceeds 2000 hours, and the projector is either put into the standby state or turned  
     off, projection will not be possible again until the lamp is replaced and the lamp time is reset.
    • When the lamp time exceeds 2010 hours:
     The projector quits and shuts down.
     The [LAMP] and [OPERATE] indicators blink on the projector.
     - The projector does not turn on unless the lamp (lamp unit) is replaced and the lamp time is reset. 
    						
    							■ After installing a new lamp, reset the lamp time counter inside the projector when this is done. A new count will start.
    If the display of the accumulated lamp time has reached 2000 hours, the projector will not work (lamp does not light up) 
    unless the lamp time is reset.
    RESETTING THE LAMP TIME (FOR SERVICE ONLY)
    1. Insert the power cord into the wall outlet
    • The [STAND BY] indicator lights up when the main power is inputted.
    2.  Press  the  [EXIT],  [MUTE],  [KEY  RESET]  buttons  on  the  remote  control  sequentially,  then  press  SVC  for  2 
    seconds or more
    • The [STAND BY] and [ON] indicators alternately blink about every approximately 3 seconds. After blinking stops, lamp time resets 
    and the projector returns to the stand-by state ([STAND BY] indicator lights up).

    To ensure the lamp hours have been reset
    The lamp time can be checked via the “Lamp hours” item in the “Signal Info” menu.
    Caution for reset work
    Reset the lamp hours only when you have replaced the lamp.
    Never reset it while the lamp is still in use, otherwise the approximate standard for gauging replacement time may 
    be inaccurate, lamp performance may suffer and lamp blow-out may also occur.
