IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Fire and Shock Precautions
1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your projector. Allow at
least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between your projector and a wall.
2. Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from
falling into your projector.
Do not attempt to retrieve any objects that might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal objects such as a wire or screwdriver into
your projector. If something should fall into your projector, disconnect
it immediately and have the object removed by a qualified NEC service personnel.
3. Do not place any liquids on top of your projector.
4. Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to
your eyes could result.
5. Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the
projector. The light being projected from the lens is extensive, therefore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out of
the lens, can cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury to
the eyes.
6. Do not cover the lens with anything other than the built-in lens shutter
while the projector is on. Doing so can lead to melting of the cover
and possibly burning your hands due to the heat emitted from the
light output.
7. The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-120 or
200-240 V 50/60 Hz AC. Ensure that your power supply fits this requirement before attempting to use your projector.
8. Handle the power cable carefully and avoid excessive bending.
A damaged cord can cause electric shock or fire.
9. If the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time, disconnect the plug from the power outlet.
10. Do not touch the power plug during a thunderstorm. Doing so can
cause electrical shock or fire.
11. Do not handle the power plug with wet hands.
Lamp Replacement
•To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page E-35.
• Be sure to replace the lamp when the message "The lamp has
reached the end of its usable life. Please replace the lamp." appears. If you continue to use the lamp after the lamp has reached the
end of its usable life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass
may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the pieces
of glass may cause injury.
If this happens, contact your NEC dealer for lamp replacement.
• Allow a minimum of 60 seconds to elapse after turning off the projector. Then disconnect the power cable and allow 60 minutes to cool
the projector before replacing the lamp.
