may burn out and may make a loud  
popping sound. If this occurs, the  
projector does not turn back on. To  
replace the lamp, see "Changing the  
Lamp" on page 24.

NOTE: The lamp life rating for any projector is a measure of  
brightness degradation only, and is not a specification for the time it  
takes a lamp to fail and cease light output. Lamp life is defined as the  
time it takes for more than 50 percent of a lamp sample population to  
have brightness decrease by approximately 50 percent of the rated  
lumens for the specified lamp. The lamp life rating is not guaranteed  
in any way. The actual operating life span of a projector lamp will vary  
according to operating conditions and usage patterns. Usage of a  
projector in stressful conditions which may include dusty  
environments, under high temperatures, many hours per day, and  
abrupt powering-off will most likely result in a lamp’s shortened  
operating life span or possible lamp failure.
