Precautions with regard to safety WARNING If a problem occurs (such as no image) or if you notice smoke or a strange smell coming from the projector, turn off the power and disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet. • Do not continue to use the projector in such cases, otherwise fire or electric shocks could result. • Check that no more smoke is coming out, and then contact an Authorized Service Center for repairs. • Do not attempt to repair the projector yourself, as this can be dangerous.
Precautions with regard to safety Do not place liquid containers on top of the projector. • If water spills onto the projector or gets inside it, fire or electric shocks could result. • If any water gets inside the projector, contact an Authorized Service Center. Do not insert any foreign objects into the projector. • Do not insert any metal objects or flammable objects into the projector or drop them onto the projector, as doing so can result in fire or electric shocks.
Do not look into the lens while the projector is being used. • Strong light is emitted from the projector’s lens. If you look directly into this light, it can hurt and damage your eyes. Do not bring your hands or other objects close to the air outlet port. • Heated air comes out of the air outlet port. Do not bring your hands or face, or objects which cannot withstand heat. Do not use the old lamp unit. • The lamp section may break.
Precautions on handling Precautions on transport The projection lens is susceptible to vibrations and impacts. Care should be taken to protect the lens from vibrations and impacts when transporting. Precautions on installation Be sure to observe the following precautions when installing the product. Avoid installing the product in a place exposed to vibrations or impacts.

Procedure of cleaning Turn off the main power and remove the power plug from the receptacle.
Replacement of lamp unit CAUTION Wait until the lamp is cooled sufficiently before replacing the lamp unit. Precautions on lamp unit replacement Be careful when handling a light source lamp. The lamp unit has high internal pressure. If improperly handled, explosion might result. A used lamp unit may burst if it is handled violently. For disposition of used lamps, request an industrial waste disposal contractor. Do not reset the cumulative time, except when the lamp unit has been replaced with a new unit.
Procedure of lamp unit replacement Caution • After 1 500 hours (4 000 hours when Long Life Lamp Units are used) of operating the same lamp, it is only possible to operate the unit for approximately 10 minutes. Steps 9 to 15 must be completed within ten minutes. 1. Turn the power off by following the steps on pages 39 ~ 40, remove the power plug and confirm that the surroundings of the lamp unit have cooled off. 2.
