When should I replace the projection lamp?

• It's time to replace the lamp when:
  • The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.
  • The projector's lamp light flashes orange at half-second intervals.
  • The message Replace the lamp appears on the screen when you start projecting.
  You can purchase a lamp (part number V13H010L69) from your dealer or the Epson Store.
  
  Note: Lamp life results will vary depending on mode selected, environmental conditions, and usage.
  
  Warning: Let the lamp cool fully (about 1 hour) before replacing it. In the unlikely event that the lamp has broken, small glass fragments may be present and should be removed carefully to avoid injury.
  
  Caution: Never touch the glass portion of the lamp with your bare hands; the invisible residue left by the oil on your hands may shorten the lamp life. Use a cloth or glove to handle the new lamp.
