  • Page 9: Safety And Compliance

    2 Safety and compliance 2.1 General safety considerations • Use only the cables and cords supplied with the projector or original replacement cables. Using other cables or cords may lead to malfunction and permanent damage to the unit. • Always use 3-prong (grounded) power cord to ensure proper grounding of the unit. Never use 2-prong power cords, as this is dangerous and could lead to electrical shock.

  • Page 10: Information/Warning - Potential Mercury Vapour Health Issues

    2.2 Information/Warning - Potential Mercury Vapour Health Issues This projector uses a very powerful UHP™ lamp for illumination to produce an extremely bright image. This technology is similar to other high-pressure discharge lamps that are extensively used in cars, street lights and other lighting appliances today. These lamps, like fluorescent lighting, contain small amounts of mercury.
