3. Design Alteration Warning - Do not alter or add to the mechanical or electrical design of this apparatus.
Design alterations and additions, including, but not limited to, circuit modifications and the addition of
items such as auxiliary audio and/or video output connections, might alter the safety characteristics
of this apparatus and create a hazard to the user. Any design alterations or additions may void the
manufacturer’s warranty and may make you, the servicer responsible for personal injury or property
damage resulting therefrom.
4. Lamp explosion Protection Warning – The lamp in this projector operates with a high internal pressure
and there is a slight risk that the lamp may explode, particularly if it is used beyond its rated life. Do
not remove, install, or otherwise handle the lamp in any manner without first putting on shatterproof
goggles equipped with side shields. People not so equipped must be kept safely away while lamps
are handled. Keep the lamp away from your body. For continued explosion protection, replace the
lamp only with one of the same type number. Always replace the lamp before the rated life time.
5. Hot Chassis Warning - This projector chassis has two ground systems: the primary ground system
is formed by the negative voltage of the rectified mains (power) and is only used as a reference in
primary circuits; the secondary ground system is connected to earth ground via the earth conductor
in the mains (power) lead. Separation between primary and secondary circuits is performed by the
safety isolation transformers. Components bridging these transformers are also safety components
and must never be defeated or altercated. All user-accessible conductive parts must b
e connected to
earth ground, or are kept at SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage).
6. Observe original lead dress. Always inspect in all areas for pinched, out-of-face, or frayed wiring. Do
not change spacing between components, and between components and the printed-circuit board.
Check AC power cord for damage. Take extra care to assure correct lead dress in the following areas:
a) near sharp edges
b) near thermally hot parts - be sure that leads and components do not touch thermally hot parts
c) the AC supply
d) high voltage
7. Components, parts, and/or wiring that appear to have overheated or are o
therwise damaged should
be replaced with components, parts, or wiring that meet original specifications. Additionally, deter-
mine the cause of overheating and/or damage and, if necessary, take corrective action to remove any
potential safety hazard.
8. PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE - Many electrical and mechanical parts have special safety-related char-
acteristics some of which are often not evident from visual inspection, nor can the protection they give
necessarily be obtained by replacing them with components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc. Use
of a substitute replacement that does not have the same safety characteristics as the recommended
replacement part in BARCO service data parts list might create shock, fire, and/or other hazards.
Product Safety is under review continuously and new instructions are issued whenever appropriate.
For the latest information, always consult the appropriate current BARCO service literature.
