  • Page 21 PJ-TX300(C11H2) 6-4 Putting batteries WARNING Always handle batteries with care and use them only as directed. Batteries may explode if mishandled. Mishandling may also result in cracking or leakage, which could in turn result in fire, injury and/or pollution of the surrounding environment.
  • Page 22 PJ-TX300(C11H2) 6-5 Air filter WARNING • Do not take care of the projector during use or immediately after use. Handling while the projector is hot could cause burn and/or projector malfunction. Before maintaining, make sure that the power switch is off, that the power cord is unplugged, and that the projector is adequately cool.
  • Page 23 PJ-TX300(C11H2) 6-6 Lamp WARNING HIGH VOLTAGE HIGH TEMPERATURE HIGH PRESSURE ● The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp can break with a loud bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, handled while hot, or worn over time. Note that each lamp has a different life- time, and some may burst or burn out soon after you start using them.
  • Page 24 PJ-TX300(C11H2) Replacing the Lamp A lamp has a finite product life. Using the lamp for long periods of the time could cause the picture to become darker or the color tone to become poor. Note that each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or burn out soon after you start using them.
  • Page 25 PJ-TX300(C11H2) 6-7 Other care WARNING Before caring, make sure the power switch is off and the power cable is not plugged in, and then allow the projector to cool sufficiently. The care in a high temperature state of the projector could cause a burn and/ or malfunction to the projector.
  • Page 26 PJ-TX300(C11H2) 6-8 Notice of AUTO adjustment Use of AUTO adjustment with the image through RGB input optimizes V_POSI, H_POSI, H_SIZE and H_PHASE automatically. In case that projected image has dark tone around its peripheral, AUTO operation sometimes makes artifacts in the image, shifts capture area and so on. Those failures are caused by period of image data is not exactly distinguished to period of blanking on signal processing.
