This projector uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly.
Improper handling may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.
●  Lamp  life may  differ from lamp  to lamp  and according  to the environment of use.  There is no guarantee 
of the same life for each lamp.  Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period of time than 
other similar lamps.
●  If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if the LAMP REPLACE indicator lights up, 
replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the projector has cooled down.  (Follow carefully the 
instructions in the Lamp Replacement section of this manual.)  Continuous use of the lamp with the LAMP 
REPLACE indicator lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.
●  A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its lifetime 
draws  to  an  end.    Risk  of  explosion  may  differ  according  to  the  environment  or  conditions  in  which  the 
projector and lamp are being used.
IF A LAMP EXPLODES, THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN.
If a lamp explodes, disconnect the projector's AC plug from the AC outlet immediately.  Contact an authorized 
service station for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp.  Additionally, check carefully to ensure 
that  there  are  no  broken  shards  or  pieces  of glass  around  the  projector or  coming  out  from the  cooling  air 
circulation holes.  Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully.  No one should check the inside of 
the projector except those who are authorized trained technicians and who are familiar with projector service.  
Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those who are not appropriately trained to do 
so, may result in an accident or injury caused by pieces of broken glass.
