Precautions when replacing lamps that stop working
If the illumination suddenly stops when the projector is in use or after
you turn it on, the lamp may be broken. In this case, never attempt to
replace the lamp by yourself. Always request service from the Canon
Customer Support Center. Additionally, with ceiling-mounted
projectors, the lamp may fall out when you open the lamp cover or
while you are attempting to replace it. During replacement, make sure
no one is under the projector, and stand to the side of the lamp cover,
not directly under it. If the lamp breaks and any glass shards or other
pieces get in your eyes or mouth, consult a doctor immediately.
Before replacing the lamp, always turn off the projector, unplug it after
the cooling fan stops, and wait at least one hour. Do not touch the
lamp immediately after turning the projector off. It is very hot initially
and poses a risk of burns.
• Be sure to use the specified lamp.
• Contact the Canon Customer Support Center for further information.
This can also be purchased from the Canon website.
• Do not touch the inner glass surface when you replace the lamp.
Doing so may cause deterioration to the projector's performance.
• Handle lamps with care. Impact or abrasion may cause lamps to
rupture while they are in use.
• When replacing the lamp, do not remove any screws other than
those specified.
