4.1 Safety
This device complies with relevant safety regulations for data processing equipment for use in
an office environment. Before using the projector for the first time, please read the safety and
warning instructions thoroughly.
4.2 Warnings
Always use 3-prong power cord to ensure proper grounding of the unit. Never use 2-prong
power cords, this is dangerous and could lead to electrical shock.
Never open the unit. The projector contains no user serviceable parts. Refer all repairs to
qualified personnel only.
Make sure that no objects enter into the vents and openings of the unit.
Do not spill any liquids on the projector or into the vents or openings of the unit.
Always remove the lens cap before switching on the projector. If the lens cap is not removed, it
may melt due to the high energy light emitted through the lens. Melting the lens cap may
permanently damage the surface of the projection lens.
Do not look into the projection lens when the projector is switched on. The strong light may
permanently damage your eyesight.
Do not look into the laser beam when activated on the remote control. Laser light may
permanently damage your eyesight.
Do not point the laser beam at people.
Only place the projector on a stable surface, or mount it securely using an approved ceiling-
mount.
Do not drop the projector.
Always allow sufficient airflow through the projector. Never block any of the air vents. Never
cover the unit in any way while it is operation. Allow sufficient distance to walls and ceilings in
order to avoid overheating. Minimum safety distance to any side of the unit is 50 cm (20") in any
direction.
CAUTION! Hot air is exhausted from the side vent. Do not place objects that are sensitive to
heat nearer than 50cm (20") to the exhaust vent.

The projector is designed for indoor use only. Never operate the unit outdoors.
Do not operate the projector outside its temperature and humidity specifications, as this may
result in overheating and malfunctioning.
Only connect the projector to signal sources and voltages as described in the technical
specification chapter. Connecting to unspecified signal sources or voltages may lead to
malfunction and permanent damage of the unit.
Allow the unit to cool down for 60 minutes before lamp change.

4.3 Mercury Vapour
The following information and warnings about potential health issues relate to mercury vapour.
This projector is using an extremely bright UHP™ lamp for illumination to attain the desired high
brightness image.
This technology is similar to other high-pressure discharge lamps that are extensively used in
cars, street lights and other lighting appliances today. These lamps, like fluorescent lighting,
contain small amounts of mercury. The amount of mercury present in a lamp is far below the
limits of danger set by the authorities.
It is very important that lamps containing mercury are treated properly to minimize potential
health hazards.
The UHP™ lamp, like any other high brightness projector lamp, is under high-pressure when
operating. While the lamp and the projector are carefully designed to minimize the probability of
lamp rupture, the lamp may break while operating and small amounts of mercury vapor may be
emitted from the projector. The probability of rupture increases when the lamp reaches its
nominal life. It is therefore highly recommended that the lamp is replaced when the rated lifetime
is reached.
As a general precaution, secure good ventilation in the room when operating the projector. If
lamp rupture occurs, evacuate the room and secure good ventilation. Children and pregnant
women in particular should leave the room.
When replacing a worn lamp, dispose of the used lamp carefully by proper recycling.
Mercury is a naturally occurring, stable metallic element that may pose a safety risk to people
under certain conditions. According to the Public Health Statement for Mercury published by the
Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry ("ATSDR", part of the United States
Public Health Service), the brain, central nervous system and kidneys are sensitive to the
effects of mercury, and permanent damage can occur at sufficiently high levels of exposure.
5
Page 11
3D perception C
Revision 3 User Manual
Acute exposure to high concentrations of mercury vapor can cause conditions such as lung and
airway irritation, tightness in the chest, a burning sensation in the lungs, coughing, nausea,
vomiting and diarrhea. Children and fetuses are particularly sensitive to the harmful effects of
metallic mercury to the nervous system.
Seek medical attention if any of the above symptoms are experienced or if other unusual
conditions are experienced following lamp rupture.

any warranties. Refer all service and repair work to qualified personnel.
Only the exterior of the projector may be cleaned. Use a damp cloth. Make sure no liquids enter
the inside of the projector
Vacuum-clean all the air vents regularly to
maintain sufficient air flow.
The projection lens is sensitive to
scratches. Use lens-cleaning tissue,
available at all photographic shops when
cleaning the projection lens. Use lens cap
when not in use.

FCC Statement
A C
OMPACTVIEW
SX25+ projector has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
'Class A' digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when it is operated in a commercial
environment. A
C
OMPACTVIEW
SX25+
projector generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of a
C
OMPACTVIEW
SX25+
projector in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference at own expense.
