If the image is still stretched, adjust the aspect ratio as follows: • If you are playing a 16:9 DVD, select 4:3 aspect ratio type on your DVD player (if capable). • If you cannot select 4:3 aspect ratio type on your DVD player, select 4:3 aspect ratio in the Image Settings menu in the OSD. Select Management from the OSD and adjust the projection mode. When the lamp reaches its end of life, it may burn out and may make a loud popping sound. If this occurs, the projector does not turn back on, and displays Lamp Defective in the LCD display until the lamp is replaced. To replace the lamp, see "Changing the Lamp" on page 46. If LAMP light is solid orange, replace the lamp. If the LAMP light is blinking orange, the lamp cover is not closed properly. Close the lamp cover properly. If the problem persists, contact Dell.
