LAMP HANDLING PRECAUTIONS:
DANGER
This projector uses a high voltage glass mercury vapor

or after extended use.
Lamp life also varies, and operating the lamp be-
yond its intended service life may cause it to break or
fail to light properly, with risk of resulting damage to
the projector or surrounding property or persons. Do
not exceed the stated lamp life, nor attempt to override
the projector’s lamp life timing system. The mercury
vapor gas inside the lamp bulb may be emitted from
the projector’s vent.
Before use, carefully read the projector Owner’s
Manual and the lamp replacement instructions. Re-
member to handle the lamp with care. In the event of
serious trouble, call a McIntosh Authorized Dealer.
1a. Do not directly expose skin to the light of the lamp
as it can cause inflammation.
2b. Do not drop, impact, subject to excessive force or
otherwise damage the lamp.

and electric shock, unplug the AC power cord

ceiling or installed in a high place, unplug the AC

Manual and the instructions supplied with the

8h. If the lamp breaks, leave the area immediately
and stay away for at least 30 minutes. Ventilate the
