HIGH VOLTAGE
HIGH TEMPERATURE
HIGH PRESSURE
►The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp
can break with a loud bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, handled while hot, or
worn over time. Note that each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or
burn out soon after you start using them. In addition, if the bulb bursts, shards of glass
can fly into the lamp housing, and gas containing mercury and dust containing fine
particles of glass can escape from the projector’s vent holes.
►
About disposal of a lamp:
This projector contains a mercury lamp; do not put
it in a trash. Dispose of it in accordance with environmental laws.
• For lamp recycling, go to www.lamprecycle.org (in the US).
• For projector disposal, consult your local government agency
or www.eiae.org (in the US) or www.epsc.ca (in Canada).
For more information, call your dealer.
WARNING
• If the lamp breaks (it makes a loud bang), unplug the power cord from
the outlet, and make sure to request a replacement lamp from your local
dealer. Note that shards of glass could damage the projector’s internals,
or cause injury during handling, so do not try to clean the projector or
replace the lamp yourself.
• If the lamp should break (it makes a loud bang), ventilate the room well,
and make sure not to inhale the gas or fine particles that come out from the
projector's vent holes, and not to get them into your eyes or mouth.
• Before replacing the lamp, turn the projector off and unplug the power
cord, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool sufficiently.
Handling the lamp while hot can cause burns, as well as damaging the lamp.
• Never unscrew screws except the appointed (marked by an arrow) screws.
• Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is suspended from a
ceiling. This is dangerous, because if the lamp’s bulb has broken, the
shards falls out when the cover is opened. Working in high places is
dangerous, so ask your local dealer to have the lamp replaced even if
the bulb is not broken.
• Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed. At the lamp
replacing, make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose
screws could result in damage or injury.
• Use only the lamp of the specified type. Use of a lamp that does not
meet the lamp specifications for this model could cause a fire, damage or
shorten the life of this projector.
• If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, there may be
electrical problems elsewhere besides the lamp. If this happens, consult
your local dealer or a service representative.
• Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst during use.
• Using the lamp for long periods of time, could cause it to darken, not to light up or to
burst. When the pictures appear dark, or when the color tone is poor, replace the lamp
as soon as possible. Do not use old (used) lamps; this causes breakage.
