Maintenance Indicators The warning lights (power indicator, lamp indicator and temperature warning indicator) on the projector indicate problems inside the projector. If a problem occurs, either the temperature warning indicator or the lamp indicator will illuminate red, and the projector will enter standby mode. After the projector has entered standby mode, follow the procedures given below.
Maintenance indicator Normal Abnormal Temperature Off Red blinks warning (On)/ indicator Red on (Standby) Lamp indicator Green on (Green blinks when the lamp is warming up.) Red on Red on (Standby) Power indicator Green on/ Red on Green blinks (Cooling) Red blinks Problem Cause The internal temperature is abnormally high. • Temperatures around the projector are high.
Regarding the Lamp Lamp It is recommended that the lamp (sold separately) be replaced when the remaining lamp life becomes 5% or less, or when you notice a significant deterioration in the picture and color quality. The lamp life (percentage) can be checked with the on-screen display. (See page 47.) Purchase a replacement lamp of type AN-K15LP from your place of purchase, nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center. IMPORTANT NOTE TO U.S.
Removing and Installing the Lamp Unit Warning! • Do not remove the lamp unit from the projector right after use. The lamp and parts around the lamp will be very hot and may cause burns or injury. Info • Do not touch the glass surface of the lamp unit or the inside of the projector. • To avoid injury to yourself and damage to the lamp, make sure you carefully follow the steps below. • Do not loosen other screws except for the lamp unit cover and lamp unit.
Regarding the Lamp (Continued) 4 Remove the lamp unit. 5 Insert the new lamp unit. 6 Securing screws • Loosen the securing screws from the lamp unit. Hold the lamp unit and pull it in the direction of the arrow. At this time, keep the lamp unit horizontal and do not tilt it. INTERLOCK • Press the lamp unit firmly into the lamp unit compartment. Fasten the securing screws. Warning! DO NOT DEFEAT THIS INTERLOCK Replace the lamp unit cover.

Troubleshooting Problem Check • Projector power cord is not plugged into the wall outlet. • Power to the external connected devices is off. • The lens shutter is closed. • The selected input mode is wrong. • Cables are incorrectly connected to the projector. • Remote control battery has run out. • External output has not been set when connecting notebook computer. No picture or projector does not start • The lamp unit cover is not installed correctly.
Problem The cooling fan becomes noisy. The lamp does not light up even after the projector turns on. Check • When temperature inside the projector increases, the cooling fan runs faster. • The lamp indicator is illuminating in red. Replace the lamp. • The lens shutter is opened fully. Page – 23, 60, 63 The lamp suddenly turns off during projection. The image sometimes flickers. The lamp needs much time to turn on.
Troubleshooting (Continued) Problem 3D images are not displayed. Check • Switch to 3D mode. • Is “3D Auto Change” set to “No”?
