Safety Precautions
WARNING
5 Heat from the illuminator
During and immediately after a period of
illumination, the lamp and the periphery of the lamp
(including the lamphouse) are very hot if the light
source of the illumination device is a mercury lamp.
● Do not touch the lamp or the periphery of the
lamp during or immediately after a period of
illumination. There is a risk of burn if you touch
the hot area.
● Always attach the lamphouse cover when using
this product.
● Make sure the lamp and the periphery of the
lamp have cooled sufficiently (which may take
approximately 30 minutes) before replacing the
lamp.
● Do not place fabric, paper, or highly flammable
volatile materials (i.e. gasoline, petroleum
benzine, paint thinner, and alcohol) near the
lamphouse while the lamp is on or for about
thirty minutes after it was turned off. Because
the lamp is very hot, ignition or fire may be
induced.
