Safety Precautions
• Dewcondensation
• Abruptlymovingtheunittoaplacewherethereisagreattemperaturedifferencecausesdewcondensationonthemain
unit.
Projection under a dew condensed state causes a failure.
• Servicingandcleaning
• Have the internal components cleaned by aretailer aboutoncea year.Thereis a risk ofre or faulty operation ifthe
inside of the projector gets dusty and is not cleaned for a long time. For best results, the projector should be serviced
before the wet season brings damp conditions. Cleaning charges are at the discretion of the retailer.
• Ifnotusingtheprojectorforalongperiod:
• Ifyoudonotplantousetheprojectorforalongtime,disconnectthepowercableforsafety.
• Disposal
• Followtherecommendationsofyourlocalauthoritywhendisposingoftheprojector.
• Transportingtheprojector
• Usethespecialpackagingwhentransportingtheprojector.Themanufacturercannotacceptresponsibilityintheeventof
damage or accident if other packaging is used.
• Usethespecialpackagingnomorethantwotimes.Repeatedusagereducestheshockabsorbencyofthepackagingand
can lead to damage or accident.
• Transporttheprojectorafterthetiltstandiscompletelystored.
• Contacttheretailerifyourequirenewpackaging.
• Lampimplosion

also designed to forcibly turn off the lamp because there is a high possibility that the lamp will break if it is used beyond
thelampusageof2000hours(RefertopagesE-46andE-47).
Note the following things
• Therewillbealoudsoundwhenalampexplodes.Theloudsoundisduetotheveryhighpressureinsidethehigh-pres-
sure mercury lamp.
At this time, there is a risk that ne particles of glass and other material that result from the lamp explosion may be re-
leased to the outside from the ventilation slots.
 Duringuse,donotbringyourfaceclosetothevicinityoftheventilationslots(attheprojectorfront,side,andrear).
• Whenalampexplodes,thegasfromwithinthelampisreleasedtotheoutsidefromtheventilationslotsandresemblesa
white smoke; however, this is not produced from heat generation or a re. Note that mercury is contained in the gas inside
the lamp, and because of this, when a lamp has exploded, appropriate action should be taken including the opening of
windows and doors. Also, in the event that someone has inhaled the gas, please contact a doctor immediately.
Remedy
• Aproductcontainingalampthathasexplodedduringusemayhavelampfragmentsscatteredwithintheproduct;there-
fore, without replacing the lamp please request repair service from the store of purchase, the dealer, or elsewhere.
Lamp replacement must not be undertaken by the customer when a lamp has exploded. Doing so will result in injury from
the lamp fragments, etc.
• Replacingthelamp
• Besuretoturnthelampoffanddisconnectthepowercablewhenthefanstops,andwaitanhourormorebeforereplac-
ing the lamp.
Replacing the lamp during operation or just after the power is turned off may cause burns due to heat.
Refer to “Replacement of the Lamp Unit” on page E-46 for the procedure.
• Inregardtothedisposalofthelampunit,followthedisposalmethodofyourmunicipalityforthesametypeofwasteas

• Cleaningtheventilationinletsandoutlets
• Tocleantheventilationinletsandoutlets,unplugthepowerplugfromthepoweroutletafterthecoolingfanstops.
Removal while the cooling fan is rotating may cause injury.
Please read “Cleaning the Air Intake/Ventilation Slots” on Page E-49 for information about the cleaning steps for the venti-
lation inlets and outlets.
• Avoidingmalfunctionsandaccidents
• AdjusttheAdjustablefeettokeeptheprojectorhorizontally.
Using the projector in a tilted status may cause injury if it rolls over. Refer to
“Adjusting the Tilt” on page E-24 for the adjusting procedure.
