replacement of the lamp unit is necessary. When the projection lamp of the projector reaches its end of life, the 
lamp replacement icon appears on the screen and <LAMP> indicator lights yellow. Replace the lamp with a new 
one promptly.

eco x 0.75

normal     

: used time in the Normal  and Auto mode
