The lamp is fragile, and can easily break. If the lamp breaks, handle the projector with extreme care to avoid injury from broken glass, and contact Epson for repairs (see page 57). Particular care should be taken when the projector is installed to a ceiling, as small pieces of glass may fall down when the lamp cover is removed. Be very careful not to allow such pieces of glass to get into the eyes or mouth.

Material or paper may get stuck against the air filter underneath the projector while it is in use. Remove anything from underneath the projector that might get stuck against the air filter in this way.

Never try to remove the lamp immediately after use. Doing so will result in serious burns. Before removing the lamp, turn off the power supply and wait the time specified in the User’s Guide to allow the lamp to cool completely.

A mercury lamp with high internal pressure is used as the projector's light source. Mercury lamps may make a loud noise when they break. Handle the lamp with extreme care while observing the following. If the following points are not observed, injury or poisoning may result.

Do not damage the lamp or subject it to any impacts.

Do not use the lamp after the lamp replacement period has elapsed. Once the lamp replacement period has elapsed, the possibility of the lamp breaking becomes greater. When the lamp replacement message appears, replace the lamp with a new one as soon as possible.

The gases inside mercury lamps contain mercury vapor. If the lamp breaks, immediately ventilate the room to prevent the gases that are released when the lamp breaks from being inhaled or coming into contact with the eyes or mouth.

Do not bring your face close to the projector while it is in use, in order to prevent the gases that are released when the lamp breaks from being inhaled or coming into contact with the eyes or mouth.

If the lamp breaks and needs to be replaced with a new lamp, contact Epson for information on replacement (see page 57). If the lamp breaks, pieces of broken glass may get scattered around inside the projector.

Particular care should be taken when the projector is installed to a ceiling, as small pieces of glass may fall down when the lamp cover is removed. If cleaning the projector or replacing the lamp yourself, be very careful not to allow such pieces of glass to get into the eyes or mouth. In addition, consult your local regulations regarding proper disposal and do not place in the trash.

If the lamp breaks and gas from the lamp or fragments of broken glass are inhaled or get into the eyes or mouth, or if any other ill effects are noticed, immediately seek medical advice.
