• The projector uses a high-voltage mercury lamp that contains high
internal pressure. This lamp may break, emitting a large sound, or
fail to illuminate, due to impact or extended use. The length of time
that it takes for the lamp to break or fail to illuminate varies greatly
depending on individual lamp characteristics and usage conditions.
• The brightness of the lamp will gradually decrease with use.
• The lamp, LCD panel, polarizing plate, and polarizing beam splitter
(PBS) are consumable parts. These parts may need to be replaced
during the guarantee period if the projector is used for six or more
hours per day.
• The replacement cycle of the LCD panel, polarizing plate, and polar-
izing beam splitter (PBS) will be shortened if the projector is subject-
ed to continuous use for six or more hours. Likewise, the replace-
ment cycle of the lamp will be shortened if the power is frequently
turned on and off or the projector is subjected to continuous use for
10 or more hours.
• Interruptions may occur in the wireless connection due to signal
interference or PC conditions.
*1: In AI mode.
*2: Legs and protruding parts not included.
*3: Operation range differs depending on the environment.
Ecology-Conscious Design
Panasonic works from every angle to minimize environ-
mental impact in the product design, production and
delivery processes, and in the performance of the prod-
uct itself over its life cycle. The PT-LB50 Series reflects
the following ecological considerations.
• Lead-free solder is used to mount components to the
printed circuit boards.
• No halogenated flame retardants are used in the cab-
inet.
• No styrofoam is used in the packing materials.
• Lead-free glass is used for the lens.
• The packing case and operating manual are made
from recycled paper.
