Pay attention to the following points when installing or using the projector.

• Be careful of condensation.
If the projector is abruptly taken to a warmer location, or if the room
temperature rises abruptly, moisture in the air may condense on the lens or
mirror and affect projected images. In this case, wait a while and make sure
the moisture has evaporated before resuming use.

• Do not install the projector in a location where the temperature is high or low.
Doing so may cause a malfunction. Ranges for the environment of use and
storage are as follows.

• Environment of use: 0°C (32°F) to 40°C (104°F), 20% to 85% RH

• Storage temperature: -20°C (-4°F) to 60°C (140°F)

• When using the projector at altitudes above 2,300 m (7,545.8'):

Adjust projector installation settings from the menu (P147). Failure to adjust
the settings may shorten the lamp life or damage the lamp.

• Do not install the projector facing the wrong direction. Install the projector so
that it is not tilted left or right by more than 10°. Failure to do so may shorten
the lamp life or damage the lamp.

• Do not block the air intake or exhaust vents. Blocking the vents may trap
heat inside the projector, which may shorten the useful life of optical
components or other parts and damage the projector.

• Install the projector leaving at least 50 cm (1.6') between air intake/exhaust
vents and walls on each side of the projector. Leave a gap of at least 2 cm
(0.8") from the bottom of the projector. There is an air intake underneath the
projector. Failure to leave enough space may trap heat inside the projector
and damage it.

For Safe Use

• Do not place any objects on top of the projector that may change shape or
color due to heat.

• Do not install the projector near high-voltage electrical power lines or an
electrical power source. This may cause malfunction.

• Clean the air filter regularly (P207). Dust that accumulates inside over long
periods without cleaning may eventually damage the projector or affect
picture quality.

• Afterimages may occur when the image changes after the same image has
been projected for some time. This is due to the nature of the LCD panels
and does not indicate a problem. The afterimage will dissipate after a while
during normal projection.

Precautions When Carrying / Shipping the Projector

Prepare the projector as described below before carrying it.

• Disconnect the cables connected to the projector. Carrying the
projector with the cables attached may cause an accident.

• Retract the adjustable feet before moving the projector. Leaving
the feet extended may cause damage.

• Do not subject the projector to strong impacts or vibrations.

Precautions for Installation

Be sure to read “Safety Instructions” and “For Safe Use” (P7 – P22). Also
take the following precautions during installation.

• Do not strike the projector or subject it to impact. Doing so may
cause a malfunction.

• Do not install the projector standing on one side or in other
unsteady positions. The projector may be damaged if it tips
over.

■ Do Not Use in the Following Environments

• Locations with excessive humidity, dust, oily smoke or tobacco
smoke

Adhesion to the lens, mirrors or other optical parts may reduce image
quality.

• Near high-voltage power lines or sources of electrical power

This may cause malfunction.

• On soft surfaces such as carpets or cushioned mats

This may cause a fire or damage the projector.

• Locations with excessive temperature or humidity

• Locations subject to vibration or impact

• Near heat or smoke detectors

• Near the ocean, or near air conditioner vents

• Locations where corrosive gases occur, such as sulfur gas from
hot springs

This may damage the projector. Acceptable ranges for operating and
storage temperature and humidity are as follows.
* Operating temperature and humidity applies to when the projector

is projecting or in standby mode.

■ Do Not Touch the Lens with Bare Hands

Do not touch the lens with bare hands. Any smudges or
fingerprints on the lens may affect image quality.

■ Allow a 30 Min. Warm Up before Focus Adjustment (P46),
if Possible

The focus position may not stabilize immediately after startup, due to lamp heat.
When adjusting focus, it is also helpful to use the test pattern (10) (P105, P152).

■ Install at a Sufficient Distance from Walls and Other Obstructions

If the air intake or exhaust
vent is blocked, heat will
accumulate inside the
projector, possibly resulting
in a shortened projector
lifetime or a malfunction.
Similarly, do not install in
narrow, enclosed spaces
with poor ventilation. Install
in a well-ventilated location.
Ensure a minimum
clearance of 50 cm (1.6')
above, on both sides, and behind the projector. Also ensure a
minimum clearance of 2 cm (0.8") below the projector.

Before Installation

■ Be Careful of Condensation

If the temperature of the room rises suddenly, moisture in the air may condense on
the projector lens and mirror, causing the image to become blurred. Wait until the
condensation has evaporated for the image projected to return to normal.

■ At Altitudes above 2,300 m (7,545.8'), Adjust the Settings

Projector settings must be adjusted when using the projector at altitudes of 2,300 m
(7,545.8') or higher. Specifically, refer to instructions for [High altitude] (P147) in the
[Install settings] menu.

25

Before Installation

■ When Using Mounted on the Ceiling

When the projector is used mounted on
the ceiling or installed in a high
location, it is necessary to periodically
clean the air intake and exhaust vents,
and the area around the air filter. Dust
that accumulates in intake or exhaust
vents may impair ventilation, raising the
temperature inside and posing a risk of
damage or fire. Use a vacuum cleaner
or similar means to remove dust from
the intake vent and exhaust vent.
