l
Replace the lamp module when the interactive projector becomes dim or displays its lamp life
warning message. If you continue to use the interactive projector after this message appears,
the lamp can shatter or burst, scattering glass throughout the projector.
l
If the lamp shatters or bursts, leave the room. Ventilate the area by opening windows and
doors.
Next, do the following:
o
Avoid touching the glass fragments because they can cause injury.
o
Wash your hands thoroughly if you have come into contact with lamp debris.
o
Thoroughly clean the area around the interactive projector, and discard any edible items
placed in that area because they could be contaminated.
o
Call your authorized SMART reseller for instructions. Do not attempt to replace the lamp.
l
Replacing the lamp module in a wall-mounted projector can result in a fall or injury. Use
caution when climbing a ladder, and consider removing the interactive projector from the wall-
mount bracket to replace the lamp module.
l
Uncovering the lamp while the interactive projector is mounted on the wall-mount bracket can
lead to product damage or personal injury from falling pieces of glass if the lamp is broken.
l
When replacing the interactive projector lamp module:
o
Put the interactive projector into Standby mode and wait 30 minutes for the lamp to cool
completely.
o
Do not remove any screws other than those specified in the lamp replacement
instructions.
o
Wear protective eyewear while changing the lamp module. Failure to do so can cause
injuries including loss of eyesight if the lamp shatters or bursts.
o
Use only replacement lamp modules approved by SMART Technologies. Contact your
authorized SMART reseller for replacement parts.
o
Never replace the lamp module with a previously used lamp module.
o
Always handle the fragile lamp assembly with care to prevent premature lamp failure or
exposure to mercury. Use gloves when touching the lamp module. Do not touch the lamp
with your fingers.
o
Recycle or dispose of the lamp module as hazardous waste in accordance with local
regulations.
