Installation
Connecting the AC Power Cord
This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100-120 V or 200-240 V AC. This projector automatically selects the correct input voltage. It is designed to work with singlephase power systems having a grounded neutral conductor. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not plug into any other type of power system.
Consult your authorized dealer or service station if you are not sure of the type of power being supplied.
Connect the projector with all peripheral equipment before turning the projector on. (See pp. 16-18 for connection)
CAUTION
For safety, unplug the AC power cord when the projector is not in use. When this projector is connected to an outlet with the AC power cord, it is in Stand-by mode and consumes a little electric power.
Connect the AC power cord (supplied) to the projector.
The AC outlet must be near this equipment and must be easily accessible.
NOTE ON THE POWER CORD
AC power cord must meet requirement of the country where you use the projector. Confirm the AC plug type with the chart below and proper AC power cord must be used. If supplied AC power cord does not match your AC outlet, contact your sales dealer.
