Lamp
The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp can break with aloud bang, or burn out,if jolted or scratched, handled while hot, or worn over time.
Note that each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or burn\
 out soon after
you start using them. In addition, when the bulb bursts, it is possible \
for  shards of
glassto fly into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercuryto escape from the
projector’s vent holes.
• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), unpl\
ug the power cord from the outlet, and make sure to request a replacement lamp from y\
our local
dealer. Note that shards of glass could damage the projector’s intern\
als, or cause
injury during handling, so please do not try to clean the projector or r\
eplace the lamp
yourself.
• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), vent\
ilate the room well, and make sure not to breathe the gas that comes out of the project\
or vents, or
get it in your eyes or mouth.
• Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is suspended from above. \
This is dangerous, since if the lamp’s bulb has broken, the shards will fall \
out when the cover
is opened. In addition, working in high places is dangerous, so ask your\
 local dealer
to have the lamp replaced even if the bulb is not broken
• If the indicators or a message prompts you to replace the lamp (see the\
 section “Related Messages” and “Regarding the indicator Lamps”), re\
place the lamp as soon
as possible. Using the lamp for long periods of time, or past the replac\
ement date,
could cause it to burst. Do not use old (used) lamps; this is a cause \
of breakage.
• If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, it is possible \
that there are electrical problems elsewhere besides the lamp. If this happens, contact\
 your local
dealer or a service representative.
• Use the lamp of the specified type only. See the section “ACCESSORIES\
”.
• Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb t\
o burst during use.
• Before replacing the lamp, make sure the power switch is off and the pow\
er cable is not plugged in, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool suffi\
ciently. Handling
the lamp while hot can cause burns, as well as damaging the lamp.
• Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed. At the lamp replac\
ing, make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose screws could result in\
 damage or
injury.
• Obey local ordinances when disposing of used lamps. In most cases, it is\
 possible to dispose of used bulbs in the same manner as used glass bottles, but in s\
ome cases,
bulbs are sorted separately.
