Replacing the lamp (continued)
HIGH VOLTAGE
WARNING ►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, if the
bulb bursts, shards of glass can fly into the lamp housing, and gas containing
mercury and dust containing fine particles of glass can escape from the
projector's vent holes.
►About disposal of a lamp: This projector contains a mercury lamp; do not
put it in a trash. Dispose of it in accordance with environmental laws.
• For lamp recycling, go to www.lamprecycle.org (in the US).
• For projector disposal, consult your local government agency
or www.eiae.org (in the US) or www.epsc.ca (in Canada).
For more information, consult your dealer.
• If the lamp breaks (it makes a loud bang), unplug the power cord from
the outlet, and request a replacement lamp from your local dealer. Note
that shards of glass could damage the projector's internals, or cause
injury during handling. Do not try to clean the projector or replace the
lamp yourself.
• If the lamp should break (it makes a loud bang), ventilate the room

• Before replacing the lamp, turn the projector off and unplug the power
cord, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool sufficiently.
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 because shards fall out when the cover is open
after a lamp's bulb has broken. 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. During lamp
replacement, make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose
screws could result in damage or injury.
• Use only the lamp of the specified type. Use of a lamp that does not
meet the lamp specifications for this model could cause a fire, damage or
shorten the life of this projector.
• If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, there may be
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 to darken, not
to light up or to burst. When the pictures appear dark, or when the color
tone is poor, replace the lamp as soon as possible. Do not use old
(used) lamps as this cause breakage.
