About the lamp
The product’s light source is a mercury lamp that lights at increased internal
pressure. Be sure to fully understand the following characteristics of the lamp and
handle it with extreme care.
• The lamp may burst with a loud noise due to impact or deterioration, or fail to
light at the expiration of its life.
• How long it takes before the lamp bursts or the life expires may vary greatly by
lamp. Some may burst shortly after first use.
• Burst is likely to happen if the lamp is used after the replacement period has
elapsed.
• When the lamp bursts, the broken pieces of glass may get inside the product
or be released outside from the openings for ventilation.
• When the lamp bursts, a slight amount of mercury gas enclosed in the lamp
along with glass dust may be released from the openings for ventilation.
Q Replace the lamp when a sign appears on the screen.
• When the replacement time approaches, the message will appear on the
screen.
• The risk of burst will increase if the lamp is continuously used without being
replaced.
• Frequently check the used hours and prepare spares when the replacement
time approaches.
Q When the lamp is broken
• If glass components, including a lamp and a lens, should break, handle the
broken pieces with care to avoid injury and contact your dealer for repair
service.
• In the event of lamp burst, unplug the product from the wall outlet, leave and
completely ventilate the room. Then, thoroughly clean the area around the
projector and discard any edible items placed in that area.
• When the lamp bursts, consult a doctor if glass dust or mercury gas gets into
your eyes or you breathe it.
