Appendix C - Notices, Warranties, Safety Precautions

Safety

To prevent accidents caused by improper handling or operation, please

Precautions

take note of the following precautions.

 

Be careful when handling UHP lamps.

 

There is a serious risk of eye damage from the intense illumination

 

provided by the UHP lamp. Avoid direct viewing or unprotected viewing

 

back into the projection lens.

 

While operating, UHP lamps are under very high internal pressure.

 

Even after you turn off the lamp, the pressure remains high until the lamp

 

cools down. At room temperature the internal pressure drops to about one

 

atmosphere.

 

Handle the UHP lamp by the metal parts only. Do not get fingerprints on

 

the glass of the lamp. This could adversely affect its operation. If

 

fingerprints get on the glass, clean it with alcohol and a clean, lint free

 

cloth or tissue. Clean the lamp before turning it on. A hot lamp will etch

 

the fingerprint permanently into the glass and affect performance.

 

Do not attempt to repair the product yourself. Opening the case may

 

expose the user to dangerous voltage or other hazards.

 

Keep the product away from dirt and dust, and periodically wipe its

 

surface with a soft, dry cloth. You can remove stubborn marks by using a

 

soft cloth moistened with a mild detergent.

 

Avoid condensation that is caused by moving the projector from a cold

 

environment to a warm, humid environment. If condensation occurs,

 

allow the projector to dry out completely before powering it up.

 

If the product will not be in use for a long period of time, disconnect the

 

power plug from the AC outlet.

Avoid using the product under the following conditions:

Extremely hot, cold or humid environments

Areas susceptible to dust

Near an appliance that generates a strong magnetic field

In direct sunlight
