Caution
- When replacing the lamp, turn off the projector, wait until the cooling fan stops, remove the power plug from the AC outlet, and let the projector stand for at least 1 hour. Otherwise, you may get burned because the main unit is very hot immediately after the projector is turned off.
- Do not touch the inner glass surface when you replace the lamp. Otherwise, the projector's performance may degrade.
- Make sure to handle the lamp carefully and correctly since it may explode if it is scratched or shocked.
- Do not remove screws unless specified.
