Note the following precautions during lamp replacement or when a lamp has ruptured.
Failure to do so could result in an electric shock or personal injury.
•
Before replacing the lamp, always unplug the projector and wait at least an
hour.
•
Ruptured lamps may scatter shards of glass inside the projector. Contact the
Canon Customer Support Center for cleaning and inspection of the projector
interior and lamp replacement.
Precautions when replacing lamps that stop working
•
If illumination suddenly stops, either when you turn the projector on or after it
has been on for a while, the lamp may have ruptured. In this case, never
attempt to replace the lamp by yourself. Always request service from the
Canon Customer Support Center.
•
With ceiling-mounted projectors, the lamp may fall out when you open the
lamp cover, or during replacement. During replacement, stand to the side of
the lamp cover, not directly under it.
•
If the lamp ruptures, dust and gas (containing mercury vapor) may come out
of the exhaust vents. If this happens, immediately open the windows and
doors to provide ventilation to the room.
•
If you accidentally inhale gas from the lamp or get any pieces in your eyes or
mouth, consult a doctor immediately.
Precautions for the Batteries of the Remote
Control
Pay attention to the following points regarding handling of batteries. Failing to do so
could result in a fire or personal injury.
•
Do not heat, short circuit or disassemble the batteries, or place them in a fire.
•
Do not attempt to recharge the batteries that are included with the remote
control.
•
Remove the batteries when they are flat or when the remote control will not
be used for a long period of time.
•
When replacing the batteries, replace both at the same time. Also, do not
use two batteries of a different type at the same time.
•
Insert the batteries with the + and - terminals in the correct directions.
•
If any liquid from inside the batteries leaks out and contacts your skin, be
sure to wash the liquid off thoroughly.
