Precautions for the batteries of the remote control
When handling the lamp, pay attention to the following points.
• Be sure not to handle the lamp immediately after it has been used. Be sure to switch
off the power and wait for approximately 1 hour for the lamp and the projector to cool
down sufficiently. Failure to do so could result in a burn or personal injury due to heat
from the lamp or projector.
• When an instruction to replace the lamp has been displayed (LAMP Indicator Dis-
plays ( P39 )), the possibility of the lamp breaking will increase. Replace the lamp with
a new one as soon as possible.
• If the lamp is damaged, gas inside the lamp (containing mercury) and dust may be
emitted from the exhaust vents. If this happens, immediately open the windows and
doors to provide ventilation to the room. If you inhale any gas emitted from the lamp
or it has come into contact with your eyes or mouth, consult a doctor immediately.
• When disposing of a used mercury lamp, dispose of it in the same way as a fluores-
cent lamp and in accordance with the local regulations where you live.
Pay attention to the following points regarding handling of batteries. Failure to do so
could result in a fire or injury.
• Do not place the batteries in a fire or apply heat to, short circuit or disassemble the
batteries.
• Do not attempt to recharge the batteries that are included with the remote control.
• Remove the batteries when they have been fully used, or if they will not be used for a
long period of time.
• When replacing the batteries, replace both at the same time. Also, do not use two
batteries of a different type at the same time.
• Insert the batteries in the correct + / - positions.
• If any liquid leaks from the batteries and comes into contact with skin, wash off thor-
oughly with water.
