Lamp: The projector uses a Cermax® Xenon lamp to deliver its high brightness. A lamp should 
be  replaced  when  it  has  reached  its  end  of  life  or  if  a  noticeable  change  in  brightness  occurs. 
Keep  track  of  the  number  of  hours  the  lamp  has  been  in  use  (Lamp  Menu)  and  be  aware  of 
any  changes  to  brightness. These  indicators  will  help  you  effectively  maintain  operation  of  the
