(minus) end of the battery first.
Precautions for Using Batteries
If batteries are incorrectly used, they may crack or leak. This
could cause fire, burn, malfunction, and staining or damaging of the surroundings.
Beware of the following:
• Do not mix new and old batteries.
• Do not mix different type of batteries as they are different in
characteristics.
• Insert batteries according to the marks on the battery case.
• Be sure to insert the minus end in first to prevent short circuit.
• Do not put batteries into fire or recharge them.
• Use only designated batteries.
• Remove the batteries if the remote control is not to be used for a
prolonged period.
Battery Life
Batteries last for 6 months to 1 year under normal use. However,
batteries provided are for confirming operation and may not last
that long. When the remote control fails to operate properly, replace the batteries with new ones.
Battery Leakage
When the batteries are totally exhausted and can no longer be
used, replace them immediately.
Leaving the batteries in the battery compartment causes leakage,
which may in turn lead to malfunction.
In cases where the leakage comes to contact with the skin, wipe it
away with a cloth. Otherwise, skin problems may occur.

About Lamp Replacement
● If this unit is installed in a constricted place, attempting to replace the lamp in that place may cause injury. Move this unit
to a place large enough to perform the work.
● Use only genuine replacement parts for the lamp unit. Otherwise, malfunction may occur. Also, never attempt to re-use an
old lamp unit. This may cause marked performance deterioration or lamp blowout, thus leading to
Broken pieces of the lamp outside this unit may also cause injuries during lamp unit exchange.
● Do not replace the lamp immediately after this unit has been used. The temperature of the lamp unit is still high and this
may cause a burn. Allow a cooling period of 1 hour or more before replacement.
● Before replacing the lamp unit, pull out the power plug from the outlet while the [STAND BY] indicator is still on. Replacing
a lamp with the plug connected to the outlet may cause injuries or electric shocks.
