MAINTENANCE AND SECURITY 
Replacing the Projection Lamp 
The projection lamp should be replaced when it burns out. It should only be r eplaced with a certified 
replacement part, which you can order from your local dealer.  
Important: 
a.  The projection lamp used in this product contains a small amount of mercury. 
b.  Do not dispose this product  with general household waste. 
c. Disposal of this product must be carried out in a ccordance with the regulations of your local  
authority. 
Warning: 
Be sure to turn off and unplug the projector at least 60 minutes before replacing the lamp. Failure to 
do so could result in a severe burn. 
 
Caution: 
In rare cases the lamp bulb may burn out during  normal operation and cause glass dust or shards 
to be discharged outward from the rear exhaust vent. 
Do not inhale or touch glass dust or shar ds. Doing so could result in injury.  
Always keep your face away from the exhaust ve nt so that you do not suffer from the gas and

When removing the lamp from a ceiling-mounted projector, make sure that no one is under the 
projector. Glass fragments could fall if the lamp has burned out.  
！ IF A LAMP RUPTURES 
If a lamp ruptures, the gas and broken shards may scatter inside the  projector and may come out of 
the exhaust vent. The gas contains toxic mercury. 
Open windows and doors for ventilation. 
If you inhale the gas or the shards of the broken lamp enter your  eyes or mouth, consult a doctor 
immediately.  
1.  Loosen the single screw 
on the lamp compartment
