User Guide SAFETY & WARNINGS

SAFETY & WARNINGS

This user guide contains important information about safety precautions and the set-up and use of the projector. Please read the manual carefully before you operate the projector.

SAFETY

This device complies with relevant safety regulations for data processing equipment for use in an office environment. Before using the projector for the first time, please read the safety instructions thoroughly.

WARNING

Use only the cables and cords supplied with the projector or original replacement cables. Using other cables or cords may lead to malfunction and permanent damage of the unit.

Always use 3-prong power cord to ensure proper grounding of the unit. Never use 2-prong power cords, as this is dangerous and could lead to electrical shock.

Never open the unit. The projector contains no user serviceable parts. Refer all repairs to qualified personnel only.

Make sure that no objects enter into the vents and openings of the set. Do not spill any liquids on the projector or into the vents or openings of the unit.

Always remove lens cap before switching on the projector. If the lens cap is not removed, it may melt due to the high energy light emitted through the lens. Melting the lens cap may permanently damage the surface of the projection lens.

Do not look into the projection lens when the projector is switched on. The strong light may permanently damage sight.

Do not look into the laser beam when activated on the remote control. Laser light may permanently damage sight. Do not point laser beam on people.

MGP D5 5
SAFETY & WARNINGS User Guide

Only place the projector on a stable surface, or mount it securely using an approved ceiling-mount.

Do not drop the projector.

Always operate the projector horizontally, within the range of the adjustable rear feet. Operating the unit in other positions may reduce lamp life significantly, and may lead to overheating, resulting in malfunctioning.

Always allow ample airflow through the projector. Never block any of the air vents. Never cover the unit in any way while running. Allow for sufficient distance to walls and ceilings to avoid overheating. Minimum safety distance to any side of the unit is 50 cm/20" in any direction.

CAUTION! Hot air is exhausted from the side vent. Do not place objects that are sensitive to heat nearer than 50 cm/20" to the exhaust vent.

The projector is designed for indoor use only. Never operate the unit outdoors.

Do not operate the projector outside its temperature and humidity specifications, as this may result in overheating and malfunctioning.

Only connect the projector to signal sources and voltages as described in the technical specification. Connecting to unspecified signal sources or voltages may lead to malfunction and permanent damage of the unit.

Allow the unit to cool down for 60 minutes before lamp change.

INFORMATION AND WARNING ABOUT POTENTIAL HEALTH ISSUES RELATED TO MERCURY VAPOR

This projector is using an extremely bright UHP™ lamp for illumination to attain the desired high brightness image.

This technology is similar to other high-pressure discharge lamps that are extensively used in cars, street lights and other lighting appliances today. These lamps, like fluorescent lighting, contain small amounts of mercury. The amount of mercury present in a lamp is far below the limits of danger set by the authorities.

It is very important that lamps containing mercury are treated properly to minimize potential health hazards.

The UHP™ lamp, like any other high brightness projector lamp, is under high-pressure when operating. While the lamp and the projector are carefully designed to minimize the probability of lamp rupture, the lamp may break while operating and small amounts of mercury vapor may be emitted from the projector. The probability of rupture increases when the lamp reaches its nominal life. It is therefore highly recommended that the lamp is replaced when the rated lifetime is reached.

As a general precaution, secure good ventilation in the room when operating the projector. If lamp rupture occurs, evacuate the room and secure good ventilation. Children and pregnant women in particular should leave the room.

When replacing a worn lamp, dispose of the used lamp carefully by proper recycling.

Mercury is a naturally occurring, stable metallic element that may pose a safety risk to people under certain conditions. According to the Public Health Statement for Mercury published by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry ("ATSDR", part of the United States Public Health Service), the brain, central nervous system and kidneys are sensitive to the effects of mercury, and permanent damage can occur at sufficiently high levels of exposure. Acute exposure to high concentrations of mercury vapor can cause conditions such as lung and airway irritation, tightness in the chest, a burning

SAFETY & WARNINGS User Guide
sensation in the lungs, coughing, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Children and fetuses are particularly sensitive to the harmful effects of metallic mercury to the nervous system.

Seek medical attention if any of the above symptoms are experienced or if other unusual conditions are experienced following lamp rupture.

STATUS User Guide

STATUS

POWER
STATUS

PERMANENT GREEN LIGHT

The projector is turned on and in normal operation.

PERMANENT YELLOW LIGHT

The unit is in standby mode; no source(s) connected, or the source(s) connected are inactive or switched off, thereby activating the power-save function (DPMS). You may enable or disable the power save function in the SET UP sub menu, DPMS on or off.

FLASHING YELLOW LIGHT

Please wait. The yellow light will flash a period after power cord is connected (10-15 sec.), and a period after going to standby mode while lamp is cooling down (approximately 45 sec.). The projector may not be turned on again until the light has turned to permanent yellow.

PERMANENT RED LIGHT

Lamp life has expired. Please change projection lamp immediately. Failing to change lamp may lead to lamp explosion.

FLASHING RED LIGHT

Projector is overheated. Turn off immediately! Check if air inlets are covered or if ambient temperature is outside specifications. The projector can not be restarted unless the power cord is disconnected and reconnected again. If the projector continues to flash red, you will need to return the unit for service.
