Important Information
LAMP HANDLING
PRECAUTIONS
This projector uses a high-pressure mercury lamp which must be handled carefully and properly as mentioned below.• A lamp may explode with a loud sound or burn out due to a shock, scratch, or expiration of lifetime.
•  The  lamp  life  may  differ  from  lamp  to  lamp  and  according  to  the  environment  of  use.  There  is  not  guarantee 
of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period of time than 
other similar lamps.
•  A lamp gradually becomes darker with time of use.
•  If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced (i.e., the LAMP indicator blinks red rapidly), chanc
-
es of explosion become higher. Replace the lamp with a new one immediately.
•  Always keep your face away from the exhaust vent so that you do not suffer from the gas and broken shards 
of the lamp.
IF A LAMP EXPLODES
If a lamp explodes, the gas and broken shards may scatter inside the projector and they may come 
out of the exhaust vent. The gas contains toxic mercury.
Open windows and doors for ventilation.
If you inhale the gas or the shards of the broken lamp enter your eyes or mouth, consult the doctor 
immediately.
If  a  lamp  explodes,  its  shards  may  scatter  inside  the  projector.  Ask  the  Canon  service  representa-
tive to clean and check the inside of the projector and replace the lamp.
DISPOSAL OF WASTE LAMP
Dispose  of  the  mercury  lamp  of  the  projector  according  to  the  local  regulation  just  like  the  fluores-
cent lamp.
Lamp Replacement
•  To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page 58.
•  Be sure to replace the lamp when the message 
[Replace with the new lamp.] appears. If you continue to use 
the lamp after the lamp has reached the end of its usable life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass 
may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury.
  If this happens, contact your dealer for lamp replacement.
CAUTION
When removing the lamp from a ceiling-mounted projector, make sure that no one is under the pro-
jector. Glass fragments could fall if the lamp has been burned out.
NOTE FOR CUSTOMERS IN THE US
 Hg  LAMP(S)  INSIDE  THIS  PRODUCT  CONTAIN  MERCURY  AND  MUST  BE  RECY-
CLED OR DISPOSED OF ACCORDING TO LOCAL, STATE OR FEDERAL LAWS.

Important Information
• Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result.
•  Keep  any  items  such  as  magnifying  glass  out  of  the  light  path  of  the  projector.  The  light  being  projected 
from  the  lens  is  extensive,  therefore  any  kind  of  abnormal  objects  that  can  redirect  light  coming  out  of  the 
lens, can cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury to the eyes.
•  Do  not  cover  the  lens  with  the  black  lens  cap  or  equivalent  while  the  projector  is  on.  Doing  so  can  lead  to 
melting the cap and possibly burning your hands due to the heat emitted from the light output.
•  Do not place any objects, which are easily affected by heat, in front of the projector lens or a projector exhaust
  Doing  so  could  lead  to  the  object  melting  or  getting  your  hands  burned  from  the  heat  that  is  emitted  from 
the output and exhaust.
•  Handle the power cord carefully. A damaged or frayed power cord can cause electric shock or fire.
- Do not use any power cords than the supplied one.
-  Do not bend or tug the power cord excessively.
-  Do not place the power cord under the projector, or any heavy object.
-  Do not cover the power cord with other soft materials such as rugs.
-  Do not heat the power cord
-  Do not handle the power plug with wet hands.
•  Turn off the projector, unplug the power cord and have the projector serviced by a qualified service person
-
nel under the following conditions:
- When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
-  If liquid has been spilled into the projector, or if it has been exposed to rain or water.
-  If the projector does not operate normally when you follow the instructions described in this user's manual.
