Important Information
LAMP HANDLING
PRECAUTIONS
This projector uses a high-pressure mercury lamp which must be handled carefully and properly as mentioned below.
A lamp may explode with a loud sound or burn out due to a shock, scratch, or expiration of lifetime.
The lamp life may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is not guarantee
of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period of time than
other similar lamps.
A lamp gradually becomes darker with time of use.
If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced (i.e., the LAMP indicator blinks red rapidly), chanc
-
es of explosion become higher. Replace the lamp with a new one immediately.
Always keep your face away from the exhaust vent so that you do not suffer from the gas and broken shards
of the lamp.
IF A LAMP EXPLODES
If a lamp explodes, the gas and broken shards may scatter inside the projector and they may come
out of the exhaust vent. The gas contains toxic mercury.
Open windows and doors for ventilation.
If you inhale the gas or the shards of the broken lamp enter your eyes or mouth, consult the doctor
immediately.
If a lamp explodes, its shards may scatter inside the projector. Ask the Canon service representa-
tive to clean and check the inside of the projector and replace the lamp.
DISPOSAL OF WASTE LAMP
Dispose of the mercury lamp of the projector according to the local regulation just like the uores-
cent lamp.
Lamp Replacement
To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page 58.
Be sure to replace the lamp when the message [Replace with the new lamp.] appears. If you continue to use
the lamp after the lamp has reached the end of its usable life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass
may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury.
If this happens, contact your dealer for lamp replacement.
CAUTION
When removing the lamp from a ceiling-mounted projector, make sure that no one is under the pro-
jector. Glass fragments could fall if the lamp has been burned out.
