Epson Powerlite Tw100 Users Guide

							66Appendix B: Notices

Never push objects of any kind through the cabinet slots. Never spill 
liquid of any kind into the projector.

Except as specifically explained in this User’s Guide, do not attempt to 
service this product yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel. 
Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltages and 
other hazards.

Unplug the projector during lightning storms or when it will not be used 
for extended periods.

Do not place the projector and/or remote control on top of 
heat-producing equipment or in a hot location.

Unplug the projector from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified 
service personnel under the following conditions: 

When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed. 

If liquid has been spilled into the projector, or if it has been exposed 
to rain or water. 

If it does not operate normally when you follow the operating 
instructions, or if it exhibits a distinct change in performance, 
indicating a need for service. 

If it has been dropped or the housing has been damaged.

If you use the projector in a country other than where you purchased it, 
use the correct power cord for that country.

Do not stand on the projector or place heavy objects on it.

Do not use the projector outside of the required temperature range of 
41 to 95 °F (5 to 35 °C). Doing so may cause an unstable display and 
could lead to projector damage.

Do not store the projector outside of the required temperature range of 
14 to 140 °F (–10 to 60 °C) or in direct sunlight for long periods of 
time. Doing so may cause damage to the case.

The projector contains many glass parts such as the lens and projection 
lamp. The lamp is fragile and can easily break. If the lamp breaks, handle 
the projector very carefully to avoid injury from broken glass, and 
contact your dealer or service representative for repair. Be careful to 
avoid getting pieces of glass in the eyes or mouth.

Be particularly careful if the projector is installed against the ceiling, as 
small pieces of glass may fall down when the lamp cover is removed. 

Never try to remove the lamp immediately after use, as this will cause 
serious burns. Follow the instructions in Chapter 3 to replace the lamp. 
						

							Appendix B: Notices67

A mercury lamp with high internal pressure is used as the projector’s 
light source. Mercury lamps may make a loud noise when they break. To 
avoid injury or poisoning, handle the lamp with extreme care while 
observing the following:

Do not damage the lamp or subject it to any impacts.

Do not use the lamp after the lamp replacement period has elapsed, 
as the possibility of breaking the lamp increases. Replace the lamp 
with a new one as soon as possible after receiving the lamp 
replacement message.

The gases inside mercury lamps contain mercury vapor which is 
released when the lamps break. If the lamp breaks, immediately 
ventilate the room to prevent the gases from being inhaled or 
coming into contact with the eyes or mouth.

Do not bring your face close to the projector while it is in use.

If the lamp breaks and gas from the lamp or fragments of broken 
glass are inhaled or get into the eyes or mouth, or if any other ill 
effects are noticed, immediately seek medical attention.

Please consult your state and local regulations regarding proper 
disposal of the lamp and do not place in a waste stream.

Remote Control Information
You can operate the projector by remote control via a line-of-sight infrared 
(IR) receiver at the front and rear of the projector. The projector may not 
respond to remote control commands under the following conditions:

There is an object between the remote control IR emitter and the IR 
receiver on the projector.

Ambient light is too bright.

Certain types of fluorescent lighting are used.

A strong light source shines into the IR receiver.

Other equipment that emits infrared energy, such as a radiant room 
heater, is in the room.
These conditions commonly cause problems for most infrared-controlled 
equipment. Try the following:

The remote control unit’s batteries may be low on power; replace them.

Dim the ambient lighting and/or turn off any fluorescent lights.

Close any window coverings and/or move the projector out of direct 
sunlight.

Turn off other equipment that emits infrared energy.
If the remote control still does not work properly, remember you can always 
control your computer-based presentation directly from the computer, even 
in an environment containing one of the conditions listed above.

Warranty
Epson America, Inc. Limited Warranty
Basic Two-Year Warranty and 90-Day Lamp Warranty
What Is Covered: Epson America, Inc. (“EPSON”) warrants to the first end 
user customer of the EPSON product enclosed with this limited warranty 
statement that the product, if purchased and used in the United States or 
Canada, conforms to the manufacturer’s specifications and will be free from 
defects in workmanship and materials for a period of two (2) years from the 
date of original purchase (except that the warranty period is 90 days for 
projector lamps). 
What EPSON Will Do To Correct Problems: If you elect carry-in warranty 
service, please bring the product securely packaged in its original container or 
an equivalent, along with proof of the date of original purchase, to your 
EPSON Dealer or EPSON Customer Care Center. EPSON will, at its 
option, repair or replace on an exchange basis the defective unit, without 
charge for parts or labor. When warranty service involves the exchange of the 
product or of a part, the item replaced becomes EPSON property. The 
exchanged product or part may be new or previously repaired to the EPSON 
standard of quality. Exchange or replacement products or parts assume the 
remaining warranty period of the product covered by this limited warranty. 
However, each replacement lamp carries the limited 90-day warranty stated 
above.
What This Warranty Does Not Cover: This warranty covers only normal 
consumer use in the United States and Canada. For lamps, 24-hour-per-day 
use causes unusual strain and is not considered normal use. This warranty 
does not cover consumables (e.g., fuses), other than lamps. EPSON is not 
responsible for warranty service should the EPSON label or logo or the rating 
label or serial number be removed or should the product fail to be properly 
maintained or fail to function properly as a result of misuse, abuse, improper 
installation, neglect, improper shipping, damage caused by disasters such as 
fire, flood, and lightning, improper electrical current, software problems, 
interaction with non-EPSON products, or service other than by an EPSON 
Authorized Servicer. Postage, insurance, or shipping costs incurred in 
presenting your EPSON product for carry-in warranty service are your 
responsibility. If a claimed defect cannot be identified or reproduced in 
service, you will be held responsible for costs incurred.
THE WARRANTY AND REMEDY PROVIDED ABOVE ARE 
EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED 
WARRANTIES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE 
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS

FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SOME LAWS DO NOT ALLOW 
THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES. IF THESE LAWS 
APPLY, THEN ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARE 
LIMITED TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD IDENTIFIED ABOVE. 
UNLESS STATED HEREIN, ANY STATEMENTS OR 
REPRESENTATIONS MADE BY ANY OTHER PERSON OR FIRM 
ARE VOID. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THIS WRITTEN 
WARRANTY, NEITHER EPSON AMERICA, INC. NOR ITS 
AFFILIATES SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS, INCONVENIENCE, 
OR DAMAGE, INCLUDING DIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR 
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, RESULTING FROM THE USE OR 
INABILITY TO USE THE EPSON PRODUCT, WHETHER 
RESULTING FROM BREACH OF WARRANTY OR ANY OTHER 
LEGAL THEORY. IF THE REMEDY ABOVE FAILS, EPSON’S 
ENTIRE LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO A REFUND OF THE 
PRICE PAID FOR THE EPSON PRODUCTS COVERED BY THIS 
LIMITED WARRANTY.
In Canada, warranties include both warranties and conditions.
Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty 
lasts and some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of 
incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations and exclusions
