SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Installation Precautions
Ensure that the projector is installed with a minimum distance of 1 m (3.3') from its left,
right, rear, and top panels to the neighboring object such as a wall.
Installation
Install the projector correctly. Incorrect installation may
cause troubles and accidents.
z Do not tilt the projector more than 20 degrees above
and below the horizontal.
z When you want to use your projector pointing up or down, make sure to place the pro-
jector straight up or down.
z Do not install the projector vertically.
Hot Air from Exhaust Vent
z Hot air is exhausted from the exhaust vent. Do not
place any object near the exhaust vent.
- Do not put any spray cans near the vent. The
internal pressure increases due to heat, such may
result in an explosion.
- Do not put any metallic object on the projector. It
may become hot, resulting in an accident or injury.
- Do not put anything such as a plant pot near the exhaust vent.
- Do not put anything near the exhaust vent that may deform or deteriorate due to heat.
- Do not seat anyone near the exhaust vent.
z The area around the exhaust vent and the cabinet above the exhaust vent become hot.
Do not touch these areas, or you may get burnt. In particular, keep children away from
these areas.
z Do not put anything that may deform or discolor due to heat on the projector.
Do Not Use in the Following Environments
z Do not install the projector in a humid or dusty location or a position where there is a lot
of oily or cigarette smoke. Optical parts such as a lens and mirror may be stained,
resulting in poor picture quality.
z Do not use the projector in a place subject to either very high or very low temperatures.
- Operating temperature: +5°C to +35°C
- Storage temperature: -10°C to +60°C
Condensation
z If the projector is carried from a cold place to a warm place or the room temperature is
raised rapidly, condensation may form on the lens and mirror due to the moisture in the
atmosphere, resulting in a blurred picture. Wait until condensation evaporates and nor-
mal picture is shown.
Using the Projector at 2300 Meters or More Above Sea Level
z If you use the projector at 2300 meters or more above sea level, the special configura-
tion is required to cool down the projector properly. Contact your dealer.
z The projector may be damaged if it is tilted more than 20 degrees above or below.
