Safety Instructions: Dell™ 2300MP Projector CAUTION
Use the following safety guidelines to help protect your projector from potential damage and to ensure your own
personal safety:
To reduce the risk of fire from the intense light emitted by the lens, do not put any object in front of or
near the lens during operation.
Lamp(s) inside this product contain mercury and must be recycled or disposed of according to local,
state or Federal Laws. Or contact the electronic industries alliance: www.eiae.org for more information.
The surface beneath the projector might be hot with use. Be careful in handling the unit.
The lamp becomes very hot with use. Do not attempt to replace the lamp after use until the projector
has been allowed to cool down for at least 30 minutes, and follow all instructions in "Changing the
Lamp."
Do not touch the bulb or the lamp glass at any time. The bulb may explode due to improper handling,
including the touching of the bulb or the lamp glass.
Remove lens cap before turning on projector. Failure to do so may cause the lens cap to reach high
temperatures.
To avoid damaging the projector and lamp, allow the cooling fan to run for 2 minutes before turning off
the projector.
Do not block the ventilation slots and openings on the projector.
Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet if the projector is not used for a long period of time.
Do not use the projector in an extremely hot, cold, or humid environment.
Do not use the projector in areas susceptible to excessive dust and dirt.
Do not use the projector near any appliance that generates a strong magnetic field.
Do not place the projector in direct sunlight.
Do not look into the lens while the projector is on; the bright light may hurt your eyes.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the projector to rain or moisture.
To prevent electric shock, do not open or disassemble the projector further than what is needed for lamp
replacement.
To avoid damaging the projector, ensure that the zoom lens and elevator foot are fully retracted before
moving the projector or placing the projector in its carrying case.
Turn off the projector and disconnect it from the electrical outlet before cleaning it. Use a soft cloth
moistened with mild detergent to clean the display housing. Do not use abrasive cleaners, waxes, or
solvents.
