	a ceiling. 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.
	• Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed. At the lamp
	replacing, make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose
	screws could result in damage or injury.
	• Use only the lamp of the specified type. Use of a lamp that does not
	meet the lamp specifications for this model could cause a fire, damage or
	shorten the life of this product.
	• 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, consult your local dealer or a service representative.
	• Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst during use.
	• Using the lamp for long periods of time, could cause it dark, not to light
	up or to burst. When the pictures appear dark, or when the color tone
	is poor, please replace the lamp as soon as possible. Do not use old
	(used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.

Réglementations

À propos des interférences électro-magnétiques

Le présent appareil est un produit de classe A. En environnement domestique, ce produit est susceptible de provoquer des interférences radio-électriques, auquel cas l’utilisateur devra prendre les mesures adéquates.

Ce produit peut provoquer des interférences s’il est utilisé dans une zone résidentielle. Une telle utilisation doit être évitée à moins que l’utilisateur ne prenne des mesures spéciales pour réduire les émissions électromagnétiques afin

d’empêcher les interférences nuisibles à la réception d’émissions radio et télévisées.

Au Canada

Cet appareil numerique de la classe A est conforme a la norme NMB-003 du Canada.

Aux États-Unis et les pays soumis aux réglementations de la FCC

Cet appareil est conforme à la partie 15 des règles de la FCC. Le fonctionnement est sujet aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) Cet appareil ne causera pas d’interférences dangereuses (2) cet appareil doit accepter toute interférence reçue, y compris les interférences pouvant entraîner un dysfonctionnement.

Cet équipement a été testé et est conforme aux limites d’un dispositif numérique de catégorie A, selon la Partie 15 de la réglementation FCC.

FRANÇAIS

Ces limites ont pour vocation d’assurer une protection raisonnable contre les interférences nuisibles lorsque l’équipement est utilisé en environnement commercial.

Cet équipement génère, utilise et est susceptible d’émettre des radiofréquences. S’il n’est pas installé et utilisé conformément au manuel d’instruction, il risque donc de provoquer des interférences nuisibles aux radiocommunications. L’utilisation de cet équipement en zone résidentielle est susceptible de provoquer des interférences nuisibles. Il incombe alors à l’utilisateur de corriger ces interférences.

INSTRUCTIONS AUX UTILISATEURS: Certains câbles doivent être utilisés avec l’ensemble des noyaux. Utilisez le câble accessoire ou un câble du type désigné pour le branchement. Pour les câbles n’ayant qu’un noyau à une extrêmité, branchez le noyau au projecteur.

ATTENTION: Les changements ou modifications non expressément approuvés par la partie responsable de la conformité peuvent interdire l’utilisation de l’équipement.
