handled while hot, or worn over time. Note that each lamp has a different lifetime,
and some may rupture or burn out soon after you start using them. In addition, if the
bulb ruptures, it is possible for shards of glass to fly into the lamp housing, and for
gas containing mercury and dust containing fine particles of glass to escape from the
projector's vent holes.

it in a trash. Dispose of it in accordance with environmental laws.

• 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

• Never unscrew except the designated screws (marked by an arrow).
• 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. When reinstalling
the lamp cover, make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose
screws could result in damage or injury.
• Use only specified lamps. Lamps which do not meet lamp specifications for
this model could cause a fire, damage or shorten the life of this product.
• If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, it is possible that
there are electrical problems elsewhere besides the lamp. If this happens,
consult your local dealer or service representative.
• Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to
rupture during use.
• Using the lamp for long periods of time can cause the lamp to become
dim, not to light up or to rupture. 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.
