Precautions with regard to safety
Do not set up the projector in humid or dusty places or in places where the projector may
come into contact with oily smoke or steam.
• Using the projector under such conditions may result in fire, electric shocks or plastic deterioration. The plastic
deterioration may cause the falling down of the projector which is mounted in the ceiling.
Do not place the projector on soft materials such as carpets or sponge mats.
• Doing so may cause the projector to overheat, which can cause burns, fire or damage to the projector.
During a thunderstorm, do not touch the projector or the cable.
• Electric shocks can result.
Do not place your hands or other objects close to the air outlet port.
• Heated air comes out of the air outlet port. Do not place your hands or face, or objects which cannot withstand
heat close to this port [allow at least 50 cm of space], otherwise burns or damage could result.
Do not use or handle the batteries improperly.
• Failure to observe these precautions may cause the batteries to leak, overheat, explode or catch fire.
- Do not disassemble the dry cell batteries.
- Do not heat, or disassemble the batteries or place them into fire or liquids such as water.
- Do not connect the + and - terminals with wire or other metallic objects.
- Do not store batteries together with metallic objects such as necklaces or hairpins.
- Make sure the polarities (+ and -) are correct when inserting the batteries.
- Do not use a new battery together with an old battery or mix different types of batteries.
- Do not use batteries with the outer covering peeling away or removed.
- Do not use rechargeable batteries in place of the dry cell batteries.
- The batteries have a protective outer covering. Do not remove this covering, as this may result in a short
circuit.
If the battery fluid leaks, do not touch it with bare hands, and take the following
measures if necessary.
• Battery fluid entering your eyes may result in loss of sight. In this case, do not rub your eyes. Rinse with clean
water and seek medical advice immediately.
• Battery fluid on your skin or clothing may result in skin inflammation or injury. Rinse with clean water and seek
medical advice immediately.
Remove empty batteries from the remote control at once.
• Do not leave empty batteries inside the equipment, as this may cause the batteries to leak, overheat or explode.
Before replacing the lamp, be sure to disconnect the power cord plug from the wall
outlet.
• Electric shocks or explosions can result if this is not done.
When replacing the lamp, allow it to cool for at least one hour before handling it.
• The lamp cover gets very hot, and touching it can cause burns.
Do not disassemble the lamp unit.
• If the lamp section breaks, it may cause injury.
When disconnecting the power cord, hold the plug, not the cord.
• If the power cord itself is pulled, the cord will become damaged, and fire, short-circuits or serious electric shocks
may result.
Always disconnect all cables before moving the projector.
• Moving the projector with cables still attached can damage the cables, which could cause fire or electric shocks
to occur.
Do not place a projector or other heavy object on top of the unit.
Do not put your weight on this projector.
• Failure to observe this may cause the projector to become unbalanced and fall, which could result in damage or
injury.
• The projector may be damaged or deformed.
Do not prevent heat loss.
• Doing so may cause the projector to overheat, which can cause fire or damage to the projector.
• Do not place the projector in narrow, badly ventilated places such as closets or bookshelves.
• Do not place the projector on cloth or papers, as these materials could be drawn into the air inlet port.
