contains a large number of high-voltage
components that create the risk of
electric shock and burn injury.
Be sure to leave all internal inspection, adjustment,
and repair up to your original dealer or authorized
CASIO service center.

Safety Precautions
● Projector cabinet
Never open the projector’s cabinet.
Doing so creates the risk of electric
shock.
● Cleaning
Before cleaning the projector, be sure to
turn it off and unplug it from the power
outlet. Failure to do so creates the risk of
electric shock.
● Exhaust vents
The exhaust vents become very hot while the
projector is running. Never touch them. Doing so
creates the risk of burn injury. The areas near the
exhaust vents also become quite hot. Never locate
objects made of plastic or other heat-sensitive
materials near or under the projector. Doing so
creates the risk of deformation and discoloration of
the object.
● Lens cover
Be sure to remove the lens cover before turning on
the projector. Never leave the lens cover attached
while the projector is in use.
● Location
Never locate the projector in any of the following
types of locations. Doing so creates the risk of fire
and electric shock.
• Near an area subject to strong vibration
• An area subject to large amounts of moisture or
dust
• In a kitchen or other area exposed to oil smoke
• Near a heater, on a heated carpet, or in an area
exposed to direct sunlight
• An area subject to temperature extremes
(Operating temperature range is 5°C to 35°C
(41°F to 95°F)).
● Heavy objects
Never place heavy objects on the projector or
climb on top of the projector. Doing so creates the
risk of fire and electric shock.
● Water
Never locate the projector in a bathroom or
anywhere else there is the chance that it will be
splashed with water.
● Unstable location
Never place the projector on an unstable
surface or on a high shelf. Doing so can
cause it to fall, creating the risk of
personal injury.
● Using the projector on a base with
casters
Whenever using the projector on a base that has
casters, make sure that you lock the casters when
not moving the base.
● Lightening
During a lightening storm, do not touch the plug of
the projector’s power cord.
● Remote controller
Never try to take the remote controller
apart or modify it in any way. Doing so
creates the risk of electric shock, burn
injury, and other personal injury. Be sure
to leave all internal inspection,
adjustment, and repair up to your original
dealer or authorized CASIO service
center.
Never allow the remote controller to
become wet. Water creates the risk of fire
and electric shock.
● Radio waves emitted by the wireless
adapter (which is provided with or
built into some projector models)
Never use this product inside of an
aircraft or medical facility, or in any other
location where use of such devices is
prohibited. Radio waves can have an
effect on the operation of electronic
equipment and medical equipment, and
cause accidents.
Do not use this product in the vicinity of
high-precision electronic instruments or
electronic devices that handle weak radio
signals. Radio waves can have an effect
on the operation of such equipment, and
cause accidents.

Lens Cover
Warning
The lens cover of this Data Projector uses
a magnetic attachment. Because of this,
it should not be used in the vicinity of
anyone wearing a pacemaker or any
other electric medical device. Should any
problem arise, move the lens cover away
from the person experiencing the
problem and consult a physician.
Caution
Keep the lens cover away from floppy
disks, magnetic cards, magnetic tapes,
prepaid cards, checks, and any other
media that uses magnetic recording. The
lens cover can corrupt data recorded on
magnetic media.
Other
Caution
Allowing dust to build up inside the projector for
long periods without cleaning creates the risk of
fire and breakdown. Contact your original dealer or
authorized CASIO service center once a year about
having the interior of the projector cleaned. Note
that you will be charged for cleaning.
E-6
English
Operating Precautions
About the Lamp
The projector’s light source lamp uses a laser and LED.
The life of the light source lamp is rated at approximately 20,000 hours. The actual life will depend on
use conditions, the settings configured on the setup menu, and differences between each individual
lamp.
The light source lamp is warranted for the period noted on the warranty certificate or for 6,000 hours,
whichever comes first.
The failure of the light source lamp to light or a noticeable drop in lamp brightness indicates the end of
the lamp’s life. Contact your original dealer or authorized CASIO service center for replacement.
Other Precautions
This projector is made of precision components. Failure to observe the following precautions can result
in inability to correctly save data and malfunction.
● Never use or store the projector in the following locations. Doing so creates the
risk of malfunction of and damage to the projector.
Locations subjected to electrostatic charge
Locations subjected to temperature extremes
Locations where there is extreme moisture
Locations subjected to sudden temperature changes
Locations where there is a lot of dust
On a shaky, slanted, or otherwise unstable surface
Locations where there is the danger of getting wet
● Avoid using the projector under the following conditions. Such conditions
create the risk of malfunction of and damage to the projector.
Avoid areas subject to temperature extremes (operating temperature
range is 5°C to 35°C (41°F to 95°F)).
Never place heavy objects on the projector or climb on top of the
projector.
Never insert or allow foreign objects to drop into the projector.
Never place a vase or any other container of water on top of the
projector.
● Never leave a dead battery inside the remote controller for a long time.
A dead battery can leak, which leads to malfunction of and damage to the remote controller.
● Clean with a soft, dry cloth.
When very dirty, use a soft cloth that has been dampened in a weak solution of water and a mild neutral
detergent. Wring all excess water from the cloth before wiping. Never use thinner, benzine, or any other
volatile agent to clean the projector. Doing so can remove its markings and cause staining of the case.
● Missing Screen Dots
Though this projector is manufactured using the most advanced digital technology available today, some
of the dots on the screen may be missing. This is normal, and does not indicate malfunction.
E-7
Operating Precautions
● Never subject the projector to strong impact while it is projecting.
If the projector is accidentally subjected to strong impact, the projection image will momentarily go
blank. The image will reappear after some time, but it may be the wrong color or it may be accompanied
by an error message.
If the projected image is the wrong color, re-select the current input source. If this does not return the
projected image to its proper color, use the procedure under “To turn off the projector” on page E-20 to
turn projector power off and then back on again.
If the image reappears with an error message, correct the problem in accordance with the indicator
explanations under “Error Indicators and Warning Messages” in the User’s Guide on the CD-ROM that
comes with the projector.
● Keystone Correction and Image Quality
Performing keystone correction causes the image to be compressed before it is projected. This can
result distortion of the image or a loss of image quality. If this happens, change orientation of the
projector and/or screen so it conforms as much as possible to the illustration under “Setting Up the
Projector” on page E-14.
If image quality is the highest priority, turn off auto keystone correction and position the projector so it is
pointed straight at the screen.
Even if your projector is still within the warranty period, you will be charged for repair if a problem is
due to running the projector non-stop for very long periods (like 24 hours) or if the projector was set up
and used without following the “Setup Precautions” on page E-15 of this manual.
● Precaution when Handling the Projector after Use
The projector’s exhaust vents and the area around the vents
become very hot during operation, and will still be hot immediately
after turning off the projector. Because of this, you should hold the
sides of the projector as shown in the illustration whenever
moving it.
● Stowing the Projector in the Carrying Bag
Make sure the projector is no longer warm before stowing it in the carrying bag.
