Precautions when replacing lamps that stop working
If the illumination suddenly stops when the projector is in use or after
you turn it on, the lamp may be broken. In this case, never attempt to
replace the lamp by yourself. Always request service from the Canon
Customer Support Center. Additionally, with ceiling-mounted projectors,
the lamp may fall out when you open the lamp cover or while you are
attempting to replace it. During replacement, stand to the side of the
lamp cover, not directly under it. If the lamp breaks and any glass shards
or other pieces get in your eyes or mouth, consult a doctor immediately.
When replacing the lamp, turn off the projector, wait until the cooling
fan stops, disconnect the power plug from the electrical outlet, and let
the projector stand for at least 1 hour. Otherwise, you may get burned
because the main unit is very hot immediately after the projector is
turned off.
• Be sure to use the specified lamp.
• Contact the Canon Customer Support Center for further information.
This can also be purchased from the Canon website.
• Do not touch the inner glass surface when you replace the lamp.
Doing so may cause deterioration to the projector’s performance.
• Be sure to handle the lamp carefully and correctly since it may break
during use if it has been scratched or subjected to impact. If the
lamp breaks, contact the Canon Customer Support Center or follow
the instructions on P26 and P27.
• When replacing the lamp, do not remove any screws other than
those specified.
