• 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 | |

| • 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 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. |
