Warning, Notices and Safety Instructions
cleaned routinely to prolong the projector's lifecycle. Cleaning of the projector's interior should only
be performed by qualified service personnel dispatched by your local dealer and you should not
attempt to clean the inside of the projector by yourself.
If other light source is directly projected onto the projector screen, the color of the image from the
projector will appear to be pale and the image quality will be lower. In addition, your eyes would
be more prone to fatigue. Therefore, it is recommended that the projector be installed in places
without direct exposure to sunlight or other sources of intense light.
The ideal operating temperature range for the projector is between 32°F ~ 104°F (0°C ~ 40°C)
The ideal storage temperature range for the projector is between -4°F ~ 104°F (0ºC ~ 40°C)

Can’t >15°
Can’t >15°
Configurations for projector operation at high altitudes
When operating the projector at higher altitudes, be sure to manually set the fan mode to "High"
or it could shorten the life of the optical system in the projector.High altitude is defined as
places being 1500 meters (4900 feet) or higher.
Please refer to Chapter VI on OSD Menu Lamps High Altitude Mode.
Keep the projector's ventilation inlets and outlets free from obstructions
Be sure to keep objects for no less than 30cm away from the ventilation inlets and outlets of the
projector and note the direction of air flow at the designated spot of installation. Do not let the
hot air released from the outlet flow back to the inlet as it will prevent proper cooling and lead to
damage of the projector's internal structure.
In the event of high temperature due to malfunctioning of the internal cooling fan caused by
clogging at the ventilation inlets and outlets, the projector will activate its automatic protection
mode and shutdown. When this happens, it does not necessary mean that the equipment is
malfunctioning. Try to unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and wait for approximately 15
minutes before operating the projector again (remember to remove the objects that have caused
poor ventilation so that the projector will not go into the protection mode again).Please refer to the
chapter on “LED STATUS”.
Description: The regulation of temperature inside the projector by the cooling fan is automatic. And
as such, the sound of cooling fan changing its operating speed does not imply that a problem has
occurred with the projector.
Protect the projector with care
When placing the projector at a high position, be sure to secure the projector firmly so that
it would not fall and cause injuries.Take care to protect the projector's lens from collision,
abrasion or other damages.Be sure to close the lens cover or cover the projector with a dust
cover if you need to store the projector or if it will not be used for an extended time.
