Disposal

To dispose of the product, ask your local authorities or dealer for correct methods of disposal.

The lamp contains mercury. When disposing of used lamp units, contact your local authorities or dealer for correct methods of disposal.

Cautions on use

■To get a good picture quality

In order to view a beautiful image in higher contrast, prepare an appropriate environment. Draw curtains or blinds over windows and turn off any lights near the screen to prevent outside light or light from indoor lamps from shining onto the screen.

■Do not touch the surface of the projection lens with your bare hands.

If the surface of the projection lens becomes dirty from fingerprints or anything else, this will be magnified and projected onto the screen. Please put the lens cover (accessory) on the projector when you do not use it.

■DLP chips

zzThe DLP chips are precision-made. Note that in rare cases, pixels of high precision could be missing or always lit. This is not a malfunction.

zzDirecting a high-power laser beam onto the lens surface can damage the DLP chips.

■Do not move the projector while it is operating or subject it to vibration or impact.

Doing so may shorten the service life of its internal components.

■Lamp

The luminous source of the projector is a high-pressure mercury lamp. A high-pressure mercury lamp has the following characteristics.

18 - ENGLISH

Precautions for use

zzThe luminance of the lamp will decrease by duration of usage.

zzThe lamp may burst with a loud sound or have its service life shortened because of shock, chipping, or degradation due to cumulative operating time.

zzThe lamp life varies greatly depending on individual differences and usage conditions. In particular, frequent on/off switching of the power greatly deteriorate the lamp and affect the lamp life.

zzContinuous use for over 1 week will deteriorate the lamp. The degradation of the lamp due to continuous usage can be reduced by lamp relay function. ( page 101)

zzIn rare cases, the lamps burst shortly after projection starts.

zzThe risk of bursting increases when the lamp is used beyond its replacement cycle. Make sure to replace the lamp unit regularly.

(“When to replace the lamp unit” ( page 148), “Replacing the lamp unit” ( page 148)) zzIf the lamp bursts, gas contained inside of the lamp is released in a form of smoke.

zzIt is recommended that you store replacement lamp units for contingency.

■Viewing 3D video (PT-DZ21KU and PT-DS20KU only)

The projector can display 3D video signals that are input by the “simultaneous”, “frame packing method”, and “side by side” methods. You are required to prepare external devices for viewing 3D video (such as 3D Eyewear, video signal output devices) which are suitable for your 3D system. For connections of the projector and external devices, see the instructions of external devices you use. Refer to “List of 3D compatible signals” ( page 169) for the types of 3D video signals that can be used with the projector.
