Before operating the machine, please read the entire manual thoroughly. The 3M™ Multimedia Projector 8635
was designed, built and tested for use indoors, using 3M™ brand lamps, 3M™ brand ceiling mount hardware and
nominal local voltages. The use of other replacement lamps, outdoor operation, environments containing heavy
cigarette smoke or different voltages have not been tested and could damage the projector or peripheral
equipment and/or create a potentially unsafe operating condition.
