• Epson takes no responsibility for loss or damage caused by damage to the
projector or lamp failures outside service warranty conditions.
• When a still image is displayed for a long period of time, image retention may
occur on the screen. Do not display images in the exact same position for
long periods.
Projection Lamp
A mercury lamp with high internal pressure is used as the projector's light source.
The characteristics of the mercury lamp are:
• The intensity of the lamp decreases with use.
• When it is time for replacement, the lamp will no longer
light or may break with
a loud noise.
• The interval of lamp replacement may v
ary greatly depending on the individual
lamp characteristics and the operating environment. You should always have a
spare lamp ready in case it is needed.
• Do not turn the projector on immediately after turning it off. Turning the
pro
jector on and off frequently may shorten the life of the lamp.
• Once the lamp replacement period has elapsed,
the possibility of the lamp
breakage becomes greater. When the lamp replacement message appears, replace
the lamp with a new one as soon as possible.
LCD Panel
The LCD panel is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology.
However, black dots may appear on the panel, or some red
, blue or green dots may
light up extremely brightly at times. Furthermore, sometimes striped color
irregularities or brightness irregularities may also appear. They are caused by the
characteristics of the LCD panel, and are not a sign of a malfunction.
Notes on Carrying the Projector
• Turn off the projector power and then disconnect the power cable from the
outlet.
Furthermore, check that all other cables have been disconnected.
• Attach the lens cover to the lens.
• Retract the adjustable foot.
• If your model of projector has a handle, hold the projector by the handle when
carr
ying it.
