If problems occur during use
If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound), or if smoke or an abnormal odor starts to come out from the projector, immediately pull the power cord plug out from the wall outlet.
If you continue to use the projector in this condition, fire or electric shocks could result. After checking that the smoke has stopped coming out, contact an Authorized Service Center so that the necessary repairs can be made. Repairing the projector yourself is extremely dangerous, and it should never be done.
If water or foreign objects get inside the projector, if the projector is dropped, or if the cabinet becomes damaged, disconnect the power cord plug immediately.
A short may occur, which could cause fire. Contact an Authorized Service Center for any repairs that need to be made.
CAUTION
When using the projector
Do not use the projector in places which are subject to humidity, dust, oil fumes or steam.
Fire or electric shocks could result.
Do not place any heavy objects on top of the projector.
Doing so can cause the projector to become unbalanced and fall, which could result in damage and/or injury.
Do not look into the lens while the projector is being used.
Strong light is emitted from the projector’s lens. If you look directly into this light, it can hurt and damage your eyes.
Do not bring your hands or other objects close to the air outlet port.
Heated air comes out of the air outlet port. Do not bring your hands or face, or objects which cannot withstand heat close to this port, otherwise burns or deformation could result.
When disconnecting the power cable, hold the plug, not the cable.
If the power cable itself is pulled, the cable will become damaged, resulting in the possibility of fire or serious electric shocks.
Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the projector.
If the projector is moved while some of the cables are still connected, the cables may become damaged, and fire or electrical shocks could result.
Cleaning and maintenance
Take particular care when replacing the lamp unit.
The metal halide lamp contains gas under high pressure. If it is dropped or hit against other objects, it may break, which could cause injury or problems with operation.
Ask an Authorized Service Center to clean inside the projector at least once a year.
If dust is left to build up inside the projector without being cleaned out, it can cause fire or problems with operation to occur. Ask your nearest Authorized Service Center to clean the projector when required. Consult your Authorized Service Center for details regarding cleaning costs.
Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet as a safety precaution before carrying out any cleaning.
Electric shocks can result if this is not done.
