Important Operating Considerations for Safety
Place the projector in a horizontal position no greater than 15 degrees
off axis.
Locate the projector in a well-ventilated area without any obstructions
to intake or exhaust vents. Do not place the projector on a tablecloth or other soft covering that may block the vents.
Locate the projector at least 4' (1.2 m) away from any heating or cooling
vents.
Use only InFocus-approved ceiling mounts.
Use only the power cord provided. A surge-protected power strip is
recommended.
Refer to this manual for proper startup and shutdown procedures.
In the unlikely event of the lamp rupturing, discard any edible items
placed in the surrounding area and thoroughly clean the area along all sides of the projector. Wash hands after cleaning the area and handling the ruptured lamp. This product has a lamp which contains a very small amount of mercury. Dispose of it as required by local, state or fed­eral ordinances and regulations. For more information see
www.eiae.org
.
Follow these instructions to help ensure image quality and lamp life over the life of the projector. Failure to follow these instructions may affect the warranty. For complete details of the warranty, see the Warranty section at the end of this user's guide.

Connecting a computer

Required computer connections

Connect one end of the computer cable to the Computer 2 connector on the projector. Connect the other end to the video port on your computer. If you are using a desktop computer, you first need to disconnect the monitor cable from the computer’s video port. Some Macintosh computers do not have a standard VESA-out video port. If the supplied computer cable will not connect to your computer, purchase the appropriate adapter from your Apple reseller.
Connect the black power cable to the connector on the back of the projector and to your electrical outlet.
NOTE: Always use the power cable that shipped with the projector.
