3. OTHER PRECAUTIONS
• Visually check for damage or dirt on the power connectors and cable. If dirty, clean
it, and if bent or damaged, replace the cable to prevent firing by the flush over
phenomenon.
• When connecting the internal connector cables or interface cables, be sure to plug
them into the connector fully, until they are attached to the connector edge.
• Be sure to remove the connector lock before removing the FPC cable for the light
bulb. Unlock the connector lock by pulling up both ends simultaneously with
tweezers.
• Whenever removing parts or repairing the product, work in a clean room, free of
dust and dirt, to keep the optical elements away from dirt.
