Lamp

WARNING

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, when the bulb bursts, it is possible for shards of glass to fly into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercury to escape from the projector’s vent holes.

About disposal of a lamp

This product contains a mercury lamp; do not put in trash. Dispose of in accord with environmental laws.

For more information, call your dealer.

If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), 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 please do not try to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.

If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), ventilate

Disconnect the the room well, and make sure not to breathe the gas that comes out of

plug from the the projector vents, or get it in your eyes or mouth.

power outlet

Before replacing the lamp, make sure the power switch is off and the power cable is not plugged in, 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.

Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is suspended from above. This is dangerous, since if the lamp’s bulb has broken, the shards will fall out when the cover is opened. In addition, 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 only.

If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, it is possible that there are electrical problems elsewhere besides the lamp. If this happens, contact your local dealer or a service representative.

Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst during use.

If the indicators or a message prompts you to replace the lamp (see the section “Related Messages” and “Regarding the indicator Lamps”), replace the lamp as soon as possible. Using the lamp for long periods of time, or past the replacement date, could cause it to burst. Do not use old (used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.
