WARNING:
The chassis of this projector is isolated (COLD) from AC line by using the converter transformer. Primary side of
the converter and lamp power supply unit circuit is connected to the AC line and it is hot, which hot circuit is
identified with the line ( ) in the schematic diagram. For continued product safety and protection of person­nel injury, servicing should be made with qualified personnel.

The following precautions must be observed.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1: An isolation transformer should be connected in the

power line between the projector and the AC line
before any service is performed on the projector.

2: Comply with all caution and safety-related notes

provided on the cabinet back, cabinet bottom, inside
the cabinet or on the chassis.

3: When replacing a chassis in the cabinet, always

be certain that all the protective devices are
installed properly, such as, control knobs, adjust­ment covers or shields, barriers, etc.

DO NOT OPERATE THIS PROJECTOR WITHOUT
THE PROTECTIVE SHIELD IN POSITION AND
PROPERLY SECURED.

4: Before replacing the cabinet cover, thoroughly

inspect the inside of the cabinet to see that no
stray parts or tools have been left inside.

Before returning any projector to the customer, the
service personnel must be sure it is completely safe
to operate without danger of electric shock.

SERVICE PERSONNEL WARNING

Eye damage may result from directly viewing the light produced by the Lamp used in this equipment. Always

turn off Lamp before opening cover. The Ultraviolet radiation eye protection required during this servicing.

Never turn the power on without the lamp to avoid electric-shock or damage of the devices since the stabilizer

generates high voltages(approx.8kV) at its starts.

Since the lamp is very high temperature during units operation replacement of the lamp should be done at least

45 minutes after the power has been turned off, to allow the lamp cool-off.

PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE

Product safety should be considered when a component replacement is made in any area of the projector.
Components indicated by mark in the parts list and the schematic diagram designate components in which
safety can be of special significance. It is, therefore, particularly recommended that the replacement of there
parts must be made by exactly the same parts.

This projector uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly. Improper handling
may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.

● Lamp lifetime may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no

guarantee of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their lifetime in a shorter
period of time than other similar lamps.

● If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if the LAMP REPLACE INDICATOR lights

up, replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the projector has cooled down.
( Follow carefully the instructions in the LAMP REPLACEMENT section of owner's manual. ) Continuous
use of the lamp with the LAMP REPLACE INDICATOR lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.

● A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its

lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or conditions in which
the projector and lamp are being used.

IF A LAMP EXPLODES, THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN.

If a lamp explodes, disconnect the projector’s AC plug from the AC outlet immediately. Contact an
authorized service station for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp. Additionally, check
carefully to ensure that there are no broken shards or pieces of glass around the projector or coming out
from the cooling air circulation holes. Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully. No one
should check the inside of the projector except those who are authorized trained technicians and who are
familiar with projector service. Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those who
are not appropriately trained to do so, may result in an accident or injury caused by pieces of broken glass.

LAMP HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

The LAMP REPLACE indicator will light yellow when
the total lamp used time (corresponding value) reaches
2,500 hours

- (✽). This is to indicate that lamp replace­ment is required.
The total lamp used time is calculated by using the
below expression;

Total lamp used time =

Teco + Tnormal x 1.25 - (✽)
Teco : used time in the Eco mode
Tnormal : used time in the Normal and Auto mode

You can check the lamp replacement counter following
to below procedure.

1 Press and hold POWER ON-OFF button on the side

control of the projector or the remote control unit for
more than 20 seconds.
