Read this Safety Guide first. Projector User's Manual - Safety Guide Thank you for purchasing this projector. WARNING • Before using, read these user's manuals of this projector to ensure correct usage through understanding. After reading, store them in a safe place for future reference. Incorrect handling of this product could possibly result in personal injury or physical damage.
Safety Precautions WARNING Never use the projector if a problem should occur. Abnormal operations such as smoke, strange odor, no image, no sound, excessive sound, damaged casing or elements or cables, penetration of liquids or foreign matter, etc. can cause a fire or electrical shock. In such case, immediately turn off the power switch and then disconnect the power plug from the power outlet. After making sure that the smoke or odor has stopped, contact your dealer.
Safety Precautions (continued) WARNING Be cautious of High temperatures of the projector. High temperatures are generated when the lamp is lit. It could result in fire or burn. Use special caution in households where children are present. Do not touch about the lens, air fans and ventilation openings during use or immediately after use, to prevent a burn. Take care of ventilation. • Keep a space of 30 cm or more between the sides and other objects such as walls.
Safety Precautions (continued) WARNING Be careful in handling the light source lamp. The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp made of glass. The lamp can break with a loud bang, or burn out. When the bulb bursts, it is possible for shards of glass to fly into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercury to escape from the projector’s vent holes. Please carefully read the section “Lamp”. Be careful in handling the power cord and external connection cables.
Safety Precautions (continued) CAUTION Be careful in moving the projector. Neglect could result in an injury or damage. • Do not move the projector during use. Before moving, disconnect the power cord and all external connections, and close the slide lens door or attach the lens cap. • Avoid any impact or shock to the projector. • Do not drag the projector. • For moving the projector, use the enclosed case or bag if provided. Do not put anything on top of the projector.
Safety Precautions (continued) CAUTION Remove the power cord for complete separation. • For safety purposes, disconnect the power cord if the projector is not to be used for prolonged periods of time. • Before cleaning, turn off and unplug the projector. Neglect could result in fire or electrical shock. Disconnect the plug from the power outlet. Ask your dealer to cleaning inside of the projector about every year. Accumulations of dust inside the projector cause result in fire or malfunction.
Safety Precautions (continued) NOTE About consumables. Lamp, LCD panels, polarizors and other optical components, and air filter and cooling fans have a different lifetime in each. These parts may need to be replaced after a long usage time. • This product isn’t designed for continuous use of long time.
Lamp WARNING HIGH VOLTAGE HIGH TEMPERATURE HIGH PRESSURE The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp can break with a loud bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, handled while hot, or worn over time. Note that each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or burn out soon after you start using them. In addition, when the bulb bursts, it is possible for shards of glass to fly into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercury to escape from the projector’s vent holes.
