Maintenance
A lamp is a consumable item. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and
the lamp could burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The
lifetime of the lamp depends on condition of use.) If this happens, replace it with a new one.
WARNING
If the projector is mounted on the ceiling, it is strongly recommended that you
contact your sales representative when the lamp has to be exchanged. Do not
attempt to replace the lamp by yourself.
If you uncover the lamp while the projector is mounted on a ceiling, there may be
a danger of damage from falling pieces of glass if the lamp is broken, resulting
in possible injury. In addition, working at high elevations can also be potentially
hazardous. Do not attempt to replace the lamp by yourself.
Always use lamp “PJ Replacement Lamp Type1” (sold separately) when
replacing the lamp.
Using a lamp other than the one specified may cause a malfunction or damage to
the unit due to the difference in the connector shape or the lamp rate.
CAUTION
If you have been using the projector, the lamp will be very hot, and may cause
burn injuries.
Wait 1 hour or longer for the lamp to cool before replacing it.
If the lamp should break, please handle with care to avoid injury due to broken
pieces and contact your sales representative for repair service.
