    Replacing the lamp
    This projector is equipped with a lamp to project images. This lamp is a consumable. It may burn out or its
    brightness may decrease during use. In such cases, replace the lamp with a new one as soon as possible. Be sure
    to replace the lamp with a new lamp separately sold that is exclusive to this projector. Contact your dealer for
    purchase of the lamp.
    WARNING:
    •Be careful not to drop the lamp fixing screws into the inside of the projector. Don’t put a metal piece or flam-
    mable object into the projector. Using the projector with any foreign object present inside may result in elec-
    tric shock or fire. When you can’t remove the foreign object from the inside, contact your dealer for removal.
    •Be sure to install the lamp securely. When the lamp isn’t installed properly, it won’t illuminate. Improper
    installation may also result in fire.
    •Don’t shake the removed lamp or don’t lift it above your face. You may be injured in your eye by flying or
    falling glass fragments.
    •Don’t replace the lamp immediately after use because the lamp cover is very hot. You may get burned. Turn off
    the power using the POWER button. After the lamp goes out, wait about two minutes until the intake and
    exhaust fans for cooling the lamp stop rotating. Then unplug the power cord, and wait at least one hour to
    allow the lamp to cool down enough to the touch.
    Interval of lamp replacement
    The recommended interval of lamp replacement is about 2000 hours*
    1 *2 of consecutive use. Such interval differs
    depending on the operating environment and may be shorter than 2000 hours*1 *2. Decrease in luminescence
    and/or color brightness indicates that the lamp needs to be replaced. When the lamp operation time exceeds 1500
    hours*
    1, the indicator will blink alternately green and red while the lamp is lit (while the lamp is not lit, the
    indicator will blink red only) and the lamp replacement message will appear on the screen for one minute
    everytime the lamp is turned on. When the lamp has been used for about 1900 hours*
    1, the replacement message
    (LAMP EXCHANGE) will appear on the screen for one minute every 10 hours*1 thereafter.
    When the lamp operation time exceeds 2000 hours*
    1 *2, the projector automatically shuts off and
    can’t be used until the lamp is replaced and the lamp operation time is reset.
    *
    1When LAMP MODE of the INSTALLATION menu is set to STANDARD. When it is set to LOW, this duration
    will be extended.
    *
    2When LAMP MODE is set to LOW, this duration will be extended up to 3000 hours.
    Caution:
    •Don’t remove the lamp for any purpose other than replacement. Unnecessary removal of the lamp may result
    in a breakdown.
    •This projector uses a high-pressure mercury lamp as the light source. The high-pressure mercury lamp may
    explode or fail to illuminate permanently because of an impact, scratch, or deterioration through use. The
    period of time until explosion or permanent failure to illuminate varies considerably from lamp to lamp,
    depending on operation conditions. Therefore, the lamp may explode soon after the start of use.
    •The possibility of explosion of the lamp increases if you use it beyond its replacement period. When the in-
    struction of lamp replacement appears, replace it with a new one immediately even if the lamp is still lighting
    normally.
    •When the high-pressure mercury lamp explodes, glass fragments will scatter inside or outside the lamp box
    and the gas charged inside the lamp will diffuse inside or outside the projector. The gas inside the lamp
    contains mercury. Be careful not to breathe it or avoid it from entering your eye or mouth. If you should
    breathe it or if it should enter your eye or mouth, see a doctor immediately.
    •In the event that the high-pressure mercury lamp has exploded, glass fragments may have been scattered
    inside the projector. Ask your dealer to replace the lamp and to inspect the inside of the projector. When you
    clean or replace the lamp by yourself, be sure to hold the handle of the lamp. You may get injured by glass
    fragments.
    •Don’t replace the lamp with the projector installed on the ceiling. Glass fragments may fall from the projector,

    Asking for installation
    To view images projected by the ceiling-
    mounted projector from the front:
    When the projector is installed on the ceiling, the
    special ceiling mount bracket, which is separately
    sold, is required. Be sure to ask a certified installa-
    tion specialist for installation of the projector. Con-
    tact your dealer for details.
    •Mitsubishi assumes no responsibilities for any
    damage caused by use of other manufacturer’s
    ceiling bracket and by inadequate installation
    conditions even within the warranty period.
    •When installing the projector on the ceiling, set
    IMAGE REVERSE in the INSTALLATION menu
    to MIRROR INVERT.
    •Ask your installation specialist to provide a
    breaker. When you do not use the projector, be
    sure to shut down the main power by the breaker.
    •When the projector is installed on the ceiling,
    projected images may appear darker than those
    projected when the projector is installed on the
    floor. This symptom is not a malfunction.
    •Do not install the projector where the exhaust
    vents are exposed to air emitted by an air condi-
    tioning. Such installation may cause a break-
    down.
    •Do not install the projector near a fire alarm
    because it emits hot air from its exhaust vents.To view images projected on the translucent
    screen from behind:
    Be sure to ask a certified installation specialist for
    installation of the projector. Contact your dealer for
    details.
    •To view images projected from behind the screen,
    set IMAGE REVERSE in the INSTALLATION
    menu to MIRROR.
