[Important Safety Information] Always follow these precautions.

WARNING: Do not disassemble the lamp unit.

If the lamp breaks, it could cause injury.

Lamp replacement

• The lamp has high internal pressure. If improperly handled, an explosion and severe injury or accidents will result.
• The lamp can easily explode if struck against hard objects or dropped.
• Before replacing the lamp, be sure to disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet. Electric shocks or explosions can result if this is not done.
• When replacing the lamp, turn the power off and allow it to cool for at least 1 hour before handling it, otherwise it can cause burns.

CAUTION: Do not use the old lamp unit.

If used, it could cause lamp explosion.

If the lamp has broken, ventilate the room immediately. Do not touch or bring your face close to the broken pieces.

Failure to observe this will cause the user to absorb gas released when the lamp broke, which contains nearly the same amount of mercury as fluorescent lamps, and the broken pieces will cause injury.

• If you believe that you have absorbed the gas or that the gas has got into your eyes or mouth, seek medical advice immediately.
• Ask your dealer about replacing the lamp unit and check the inside of the projector.

WARNING:

[UV Lamp Warning] TURN OFF THE UV LAMP BEFORE OPENING THE LAMP COVER.

[Note] Notes on replacing the lamp unit

• The light source lamp is a glass component. If it is hit on a hard object or dropped, breakage may occur. Be careful when handling a light source lamp.
• A Phillips screwdriver is necessary when replacing the lamp unit. Hold the screwdriver firmly.
• Grip the handle when you remove the lamp unit. Some parts of the lamp unit are sharpened and may cause injury.
• The lamp contains mercury. Contact the local government office or distributor for the correct disposal of the old lamp unit.
• If you continue to use a lamp after the replacement time, the lamp may break.
• Do not disassemble the lamp unit.
• When replacing the lamp because it has stopped illuminating, there is a possibility that the lamp may be broken. If replacing the lamp of a projector which has been installed on the ceiling, you should always assume that the lamp is broken, and you should stand to the side of the lamp cover, not underneath it. Remove the lamp cover gently. Small pieces of glass may fall out when the lamp cover is opened. If pieces of glass get into your eyes or mouth, seek medical advice immediately.
