Lamp Replacement - NEC LT260 Important Information Manual

Fire and Shock Precautions
1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the build-up of
heat inside your projector. Allow at least 3 inches (10 cm) of space between your projector and a wall.
2. Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from falling into your projector.
Do not attempt to retrieve any objects that might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal objects
such as a wire or screwdriver into your projector. If something should fall into your projector, discon-
nect it immediately and have the object removed by a qualified NEC service personnel.
3. Do not place any liquids on top of your projector.
4 Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result.
5 Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the projector. The light being pro-
jected from the lens is extensive, therefore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming
out of the lens, can cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury to the eyes.
6 Do not cover the lens with the supplied lens cap or equivalent while the projector is on. Doing so can
lead to melting of the cap and possibly burning your hands due to the heat emitted from the light
output.
7. The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-120 or 200-240 V 50/60 Hz AC. Ensure
that your power supply fits this requirement before attempting to use your projector.
8. Handle the power cable carefully and avoid excessive bending.
A damaged cord can cause electric shock or fire.
9. If the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time, disconnect the plug from the power
outlet.
CAUTION
1. Do not try to touch the ventilation outlet on the front as it can become heated while the projector is
turned on.
2. Do no use the tilt-foot for purposes other than originally intended. Misuses such as gripping the tilt-foot
or hanging on the wall can cause damage to the projector.
3. Enable Fan High-Speed mode if you continue to use the projector for consecutive days. (From the
Advanced menu, select [Projector Options] → [Setup] → [Page 4] → [Fan High Speed Mode].)
4. Do not unplug the power cable from the wall outlet under any one of the following circumstances.
Doing so can cause damage to the projector:
* While the Hour Glass icon appears.
* While the message "Please wait a moment." appears. This message will be displayed after the
projector is turned off.
* While the cooling fans are running. (The cooling fans continue to work for 90 seconds after the
projector is turned off).
5. Do not eject the PC card while its data is being accessed. Doing so can damage your PC card data.

Lamp Replacement

• To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page E-5.
• Be sure to replace the lamp when the message "The lamp has reached the end of its usable life.
Please replace the 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 NEC dealer for lamp replacement.
• Allow a minimum of 90 seconds to elapse after turning off the projector. Then turn off the main power
switch, disconnect the power cable and allow 60 minutes to cool the projector before replacing the
lamp.
