							Lamp Handing Precautions
DANGERThis SHP uses a high voltage glass mercury vapor
lamp. The lamp can break or fail to light if handled
wrongly during replacement or because of the
projector’s surrounding temperature.
Lamp life also varies according to the lamp with
some even breaking or failing to light as soon as
they are used the first time. If the lamp breaks,
glass fragments may be scattered inside the lamp
unit and projector, and gas inside the lamp bulb
that contains mercury vapor may be emitted from
the projector’s vent.
Before use, carefully read the projector user guide
and the lamp replacement instructions. Remember
to handle the lamp with care. In the event of
serious trouble, call for Marantz authorized dealer.
• Do not look directly into the lamp with bare
eyes while lit. The bright light can cause sore
eyes and impair vision.
• Do not directly expose skin to the light of the
lamp. Direct exposure can inflame the skin.
• Do not drop, impact, subject to excessive force
or otherwise damage the lamp.
• Replacing the lamp runs the risk of burns and
electric shock, therefore shut OFF power
supply, unplug the AC power cord from AC
power outlet and wait at least 60 minutes for
the lamp to cool down before attempting to
replace it.
• If the lamp breaks, unplug the AC power cord
from AC power outlet and call for Marantz
authorized dealer to replace it. Do not replace
the lamp yourself or clean up broken glass
inside the projector as this can result in cuts
and burns to you or damages inside the
projector.
• If the projector is hung from a ceiling or
installed in a high place, it is extremely
dangerous to replace the lamp. In this case, do
not replace or handle the damaged lamp
yourself.
CAUTION• The chance of the lamp breaking is high after
extended use. It is recommended to replace
the lamp when near the end of its designed
life. Do not use a lamp beyond the maximum
lighting time.
• Use only Marantz original lamp units. Check
the model code of the lamp unit matches that
in the user guide.
• Before replacing the lamp, read carefully
“Lamp Unit Replacement” in the user guide.
Replace the lamp as explained therein.
• Entrust disposal of a used lamp to a licensed
industrial waste handler or return it to the place
of purchase. Do not break the lamp or discard
with general waste.
• If the lamp breaks, leave the area immediately
and stay away for at least 30 minutes, and
ventilate the room so as not to inhale the
mercury vapor.
• If you inhale the mercury vapor, see a
physician immediately and follow his
instructions.

rompe, los fragmentos de cristal se pueden
desparramar por el interior de la unidad de la
lámpara y del proyector, y el gas con vapor de
mercurio contenido en la bombilla se puede
escapar a través del sistema de ventilación del
proyector. 
Antes de usar el aparato, lea con cuidado la guía
de usuario del proyector y las instrucciones de
recambio de la lámpara. No olvide manipular con
cuidado la lámpara. En caso de producirse
problemas serios, avise a un distribuidor
autorizado de Marantz.
• No mire directamente a la lámpara sin
protección en los ojos cuando ésta esté
encendida. La luz brillante puede irritar los ojos
e impedir la visión.
• No exponga directamente la piel a la luz de la
lámpara. La exposición directa puede inflamar

Precauções para o manuseio da lâmpada
CUIDADOEsta lâmpada SHP é uma lâmpada feita de vidro
que contém vapor de mercúrio a alta pressão. A
lâmpada pode quebrar ou não acender caso seja
manuseada incorrectamente durante a
substituição ou devido à temperatura ambiente
onde se encontra o projector. 
A vida útil da lâmpada também varia conforme a
lâmpada, com casos de quebra ou falha em
acender na primeira vez que a lâmpada é utilizada.
Se a lâmpada quebrar, estilhaços de vidro podem
cair dentro do compartimento da lâmpada e do
projector, e o gás de dentro da lâmpada que
contém vapor de mercúrio poderá ser emitido
através da saída do projector. 
Antes de o utilizar, leia cuidadosamente o guia do
utilizador do projector bem como as instruções
para substituição da lâmpada. Lembre-se de
manusear a lâmpada com cuidado. No caso de
problemas, entre em contacto com o representante
autorizado da Marantz.
• Não olhar directamente na lâmpada acesa
sem protecção ocular. A luz forte pode causar
irritação nos olhos ou prejudicar a visão.
• Não expor a pele directamente à luz da
lâmpada. Exposição directa pode causar
inflamação na pele. 
• Não derrubar, bater, nem usar força excessiva,
pois pode danificar a lâmpada.
• Devido ao risco de queimaduras e choque
eléctrico ao substituir a lâmpada, desligue a
alimentação, desligue o cabo de alimentação da
tomada de CA e espere pelo menos 60 minutos
para arrefecer antes de substituir a lâmpada. 
• Se a lâmpada quebrar, desligue o cabo de
alimentação de CA da tomada e entre em
contacto com o representante autorizado da
Marantz para que faça a substituição. Não
tente fazer a substituição nem limpar os
estilhaços de vidro de dentro do projector, pois
pode resultar em cortes e queimaduras ou
ainda danos ao projector. 
• Se o projector estiver instalado no teto ou
qualquer lugar alto, é extremamente perigoso
substituir a lâmpada. Nesse caso, não tente
fazer a substituição nem manusear o lâmpada
danificada.  
AVISO• A probabilidade da lâmpada quebrar aumenta
depois de um longo período de utilização. É
recomendável substituir a lâmpada quando a
vida útil da mesma estiver próxima do fim.
Não utilizar a lâmpada além do tempo máximo
determinado. 
• Utilizar apenas lâmpadas genuínas Marantz.
Confirme que o código do modelo da lâmpada
corresponde com o listado no guia do
utilizador. 
• Antes de substituir a lâmpada, leia
cuidadosamente a secção “Substituição da
lâmpada” no guia do utilizador. Substitua a
lâmpada de acordo com as instruções dadas.
• Para jogar uma lâmpada usada, solicite os
serviços de uma companhia autorizada a
colectar lixo industrial ou devolva a lâmpada na
loja onde a adquiriu. Não quebrar a lâmpada
nem jogá-la com o lixo comum.
• Se a lâmpada quebrar, saia da sala
imediatamente, ventile o ambiente para evitar
inalar o vapor de mercúrio e não retorne por
pelo menos 30 minutos.
• Se inalar o vapor de mercúrio, consulte um
médico imediatamente e siga as suas
instruções.

Caution Concerning the Lamp UnitCaution Concerning the Lamp Replacement
For minimal servicing and to maintain high image quality, avoid humidity, dust and cigarette smoke.
When the projector is subjected to these environments,the lens and part of ventilation holes must be cleaned
more often than usual. As long as the projector is properly maintained in this manner, use in these
environments will not reduce the overall operation life. Please note that all internal cleaning must be
performed by an Marantz Authorized Dealer, or Service Center.
•Do not expose the projector to extreme heat or cold.
Operating temperature:41 °F to 95 °F (+5 °C to 35 °C)
Storage temperature:–4 °F to 140 °F (–20 °C to +60 °C)
•The exhaust ventilative hole, the lamp cage cover and adjacent areas may get extremely hot during
projector operation. To prevent injury,do not touch these areas until they have sufficiently cooled
down.
•Allow at least 1 foot (30 cm)of space between the exhaust ventilative hole and the nearest wall or
obstruction.
•If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a protection device will automatically turn off the projector lamp.
This does not indicate a malfunction. Remove the projector power cord from the wall outlet and wait at
least 10 minutes.
Then turn on the power by plugging the power cord back in. This will return the projector to the normal
operating condition.Notes on OperationCaution

Note: Pixel defectsDMD (Digital Micromirror Device) is one of the
most advanced technologies for consumer
products. The DMD made by high precision
technology, however some pixel defects may
be found on the projected image. We are
trying our best to control the quality in order to
reduce the number of defective pixels. It is
almost impossible to have zero pixel defects,
even using the most advanced technology.
This is not a problem only for Marantz, but all
DLP
TMprojector manufactures. Therefore we
have to note that the warranty does not cover
the DMD for pixel defects. We appreciate your
understandings.
Note: LampSHP lamp is one of the most advanced
technologies for consumer products. The
lamp made by high precision technology,
however some lamps might be failing before it
reaches its life. And projector’s brightness is
getting darker along with accumulated lamp
usage hours. We are trying our best to control
the quality in order to reduce lamp failures. It
is almost impossible to have zero failure, even
using the most advanced technology. This is
not a problem only for Marantz, but all
projector manufactures. Therefore we have to
note that the warranty does not cover the SHP
lamp for lamp failures: explosion, and non-
lighting except initial use. And also we have to
note that the warranty does not cover the SHP
lamp for lamp failures: flickering, and getting
darker along with accumulated lamp usage
hours. We appreciate your understandings.
