HIGH VOLTAGE HIGH TEMPERATURE HIGH PRESSURE
►The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp can break with a
loud bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, handled while hot, or worn over time.
Note that each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or burn out soon
after you start using them. In addition, when the bulb bursts, it is possible for shards of
glass to y into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercury to escape from the
projector’s vent holes.
•
If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does),
Unplug the power cord from the outlet, and make sure to request a
replacement lamp from your local dealer. Note that shards of glass could
damage the projector’s internals, or cause injury during handling, so please
do not try to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.
Ventilate the room well, and make sure not to breathe the gas that comes
out of the projector vents, or get it in your eyes or mouth.
•
Before replacing the lamp, turn the projector off and unplug the power
cord, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool sufciently.
Handling the lamp while hot can cause burns, as well as damaging the
lamp.
•
Never unscrew except the appointed (marked by an arrow) screws.
•
Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is suspended from a
ceiling. 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 rmly. Loose screws
could result in damage or injury.
•
Use only the lamp of the specied type.
•
If the lamp breaks soon after the rst time it is used, it is possible that there
are electrical problems elsewhere besides the lamp. If this happens, consult
your local dealer or a service representative.
•
Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst
during use.
•
Using the lamp for long periods of time, could cause it dark, not to light up
or to burst. When the pictures appear dark, or when the color tone is poor,
please replace the lamp as soon as possible. Do not use old (used) lamps;
this is a cause of breakage.
