Remote Control (continued)
Operating The Remote Control
ATTENTION • Do not drop or otherwise expose the remote control to physical
impact.
• Do not get the remote control wet or place it on wet objects. Doing so may result in
malfunction.
• Remove the batteries from the remote control and store them in a safe place if you
won’t be using the remote control for an extended period.
• Replace the batteries whenever the remote control starts to malfunction.
• When strong lights, such as direct sunlight or light from an extremely close range
(such as from an inverter fluorescent lamp), hit the projector’s remote sensor, the
remote control may cause to function. Adjust the direction of the projector to keep light
from directly hitting the projector’s remote sensor.
• The remote control works with the projector’s remote
sensor.
• The range of the remote sensor is 3 meters with a 60degree range (30 degrees to the left and right of the
remote sensor).
Also a remote signal reflected in the screen etc. may be
available. If it is difficult to send a remote signal to the
sensor directly, please try.
• Since the remote control uses infrared light to send
signals to the projector (Class1 LED), be sure to use the
remote control in an area free from obstacles that could
block the remote control’s output signal to the projector.

Lamp
WARNING
The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp can break with a
loud bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, handled while hot, or worn over time.
Note that each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or burn out soon after
you start using them. In addition, when the bulb bursts, it is possible for shards ofglass to fly into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercury to escape from the
projector’s vent holes.
About disposal of a lamp • This product contains a mercury lamp; do not put in
trash. Dispose of in accord with environmental laws.
For lamp recycling, go to www.lamprecycle.org. (in USA)
For product disposal, contact your local government agency or www.eiae.org (in the
US) or www.epsc.ca (in Canada).
For more information, call your dealer.
• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), unplug
the power cord from the outlet, and make sure to request a replacement
lamp from your local dealer. Note that shards of glass could damage the
projector’s internals, or cause injury during handling, so please do not try
to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.
Disconnect the
plug from the
power outlet
• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), ventilate
the room well, and make sure not to breathe the gas that comes out of
the projector vents, or get it in your eyes or mouth.
• Before replacing the lamp, make sure the power switch is off and the
power cable is not plugged in, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp
to cool sufficiently. Handling the lamp while hot can cause burns, as well
as damaging the lamp.
• Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is suspended from
above. 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.
HIGH VOLTAGE HIGH TEMPERATURE HIGH PRESSURE
• Use only the lamp of the specified type DT00621
• 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, contact your local dealer or a service representative.
• Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to
burst during use.
• If the indicators or a message prompts you to replace the lamp (see the
section “Related Messages” and “Regarding the indicator Lamps”),
replace the lamp as soon as possible. Using the lamp for long periods of
time, or past the replacement date, could cause it to burst. Do not use
old (used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.
• When you replace the lamp, please replace also the air filter. The air filter may be
attached when you buy a replacement lamp for this projector. Please ask your dealer.
If the indicators or a message prompts you to replace the lamp, replace the lamp as soon
as possible. Using the lamp for long periods of time, or past the replacement date, could
cause it to burst. If the projector is mounted on the ceiling, or if the lamp has broken, do
not try to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.
Turn off the projector, and unplug the power cord. Allow the lamp
1
bulb to cool for at least 45 minutes.
Contact your local dealer to prepare a new lamp. Tell the dealer
2
your lamp type number. If the projector is mounted on the ceiling,
or if the lamp has broken, also ask the dealer to replace the lamp.
In the case of replacement by yourself,
After making sure that the projector
3
has cooled adequately, slowly flip
over the projector, so that the bottom
is facing up.
Hold the release button while sliding

• Before replacing the air filter, make sure the power switch is off and the power cable
is not plugged in.
• Use the air filter of the specified type only. Type number:
• Do not use the projector with the air filter and filter cover removed. The use without
the air filter could result in damage.
CAUTION
• If the air filter becomes clogged by dust or the like, internal temperature rises and
could cause malfunction. The power is automatically turned off in order to prevent the
projector from overheating internally.
• When you replace the lamp, please replace also the air filter. The air filter may be
attached when you buy a replacement lamp for this projector. Please ask your dealer.
• Do not reset the filter timer without cleaning or replacing the air filter.
Caring For The Air Filter
The air filter should be cleaned about every 100 hours. If the indicators or a message
prompts you to clean the air filter (see the section “Related Messages” and “Regarding
The Indicator Lamps”), clean the air filter as soon as possible. If the air filter becomes
clogged by dust or the like, internal temperature rises and could cause malfunction.
Turn off the projector, and unplug the power cord.

• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), unplug
the power cord from the outlet, and make sure to request a replacement
lamp from your local dealer. Note that shards of glass could damage the
projector’s internals, or cause injury during handling, so please do not try
to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.
Disconnect the
plug from the
power outlet
• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does),
ventilate the room well, and make sure not to breathe the gas that comes
out of the projector vents, or get it in your eyes or mouth.
• Before replacing the lamp, make sure the power switch is off and the
power cable is not plugged in, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp
to cool sufficiently. Handling the lamp while hot can cause burns, as well
as damaging the lamp.
HIGH VOLTAGE HIGH TEMPERATURE HIGH PRESSURE
• Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is suspended from above.
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 the lamp of the specified type only.
• 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,
contact your local dealer or a service representative.
• Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst
during use.
• If the indicators or a message prompts you to replace the lamp (see the
section “Related Messages” and “Regarding the indicator Lamps”),
replace the lamp as soon as possible. Using the lamp for long periods of
time, or past the replacement date, could cause it to burst. Do not use old
(used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.
