RF Interference
WARNING
The Federal Communications Commission does not allow any
modifications or changes to the unit EXCEPT those specified
by Dukane Corporation AV Division in this manual. Failure to comply with this government regulation could void your right to
operate this equipment. This equipment has been tested and
found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses,
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio
or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio / TV technician for
help.
In UK, a BS approved power cable with moulded plug has a Black (five
Amps) fuse installed for use with this equipment. If a power cable is not
supplied with this equipment please contact your supplier.
Important Safeguards
These safety instructions are to ensure the long life of your projector
and to prevent fire and shock. Please read them carefully and heed all
warnings.
Installation
1. For best results, use your projector in a darkened room.
2. Place the projector on a flat, level surface in a dry area away from
dust and moisture.
To avoid premature lamp failure, do not tilt the front of the projector
up or down by more than 75° from level. Tilting the front of the projector up or down from 15° to 75° might reduce lamp life by up to
25%.
3. Do not place your projector in direct sunlight, near heaters or heat
radiating appliances.
4. Exposure to direct sunlight, smoke or steam can harm internal components.
5. Handle your projector carefully. Dropping or jarring can damage internal components.
6. Do not place heavy objects on top of the projector.
7. If you wish to have the projector installed on the ceiling:
a. Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
b. The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order
to ensure proper operation and reduce the risk of bodily injury.
c. In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the
projector and the installation must be in accordance with any
local building codes.
d. Please consult your dealer for more information.
WARNING TO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS:
Handling the cables supplied with this product, will expose you to
lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
E-2
Fire and Shock Precautions
1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your projector. Allow
at least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between your projector and a
wall.
2. Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from
falling into your projector.
Do not attempt to retrieve any objects that might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal objects such as a wire or screwdriver
into your projector. If something should fall into your projector, disconnect it immediately and have the object removed by a qualified
Dukane service personnel.
3. Do not place any liquids on top of your projector.
4. Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage
to your eyes could result.
5. Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the
projector. The light being projected from the lens is extensive, therefore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out
of the lens, can cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury
to the eyes.
6. Do not cover the lens with the supplied lens cap or equivalent while
the projector is on. Doing so can lead to melting of the cap and
possibly burning your hands due to the heat emitted from the light
output.
7. The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-240
V 50/60 Hz AC. Ensure that your power supply fits this requirement
before attempting to use your projector.
8. Handle the power cable carefully and avoid excessive bending.
A damaged cord can cause electric shock or fire.
9. If the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time,
disconnect the plug from the power outlet.
10. Do not touch the power plug during a thunderstorm. Doing so can
cause electrical shock or fire.
• Allow a minimum of 90 seconds to elapse after turning off the projector. Then turn off the main power switch, disconnect the power
cable and allow 60 minutes to cool the projector before replacing
the lamp.

WARNING
* Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done by a quali-
fied technician. Contact your Dukane dealer for more information.
* Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
•To avoid premature lamp failure, do not tilt the front of the projector
up or down by more than 75° from level. Tilting the front of the projector up or down from 15° to 75° might reduce lamp life by up to 25%.
• Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If the projector falls
to the ground, you can be injured and the projector severely damaged.
• Do not use the projector where temperatures vary greatly. The projector must be used at temperatures between 32˚F (0˚C) and 95˚F
(35˚C).
• Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or smoke. This will
harm the screen image.
• Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your projector so
heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents on the side or the front of
the projector.
Reflecting the Image
Using a mirror to reflect your projector's image enables you to enjoy a
much larger image. Contact your Dukane dealer if you need a mirror. If
you're using a mirror and your image is inverted, use the MENU and
SELECT buttons on your projector cabinet or buttons on your remote control to correct the orientation. (See page E-46.)
E-13
Making Connections
NOTE: When using with a notebook PC, be sure to connect between the projector and the notebook PC before turning on the power to the notebook PC. In most
cases signal cannot be output from RGB output unless the notebook PC is turned on after connecting with the projector.
* If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer's screen-saver or power management software.
* If you accidentally hit the POWER button on the remote control, wait 90 seconds and then press the POWER button again to resume.
When Viewing a DVI Digital Signal:
To project a DVI digital signal, be sure to connect the PC and the projector using a DVI-D signal cable (not supplied) before turning on your PC or
projector. Turn on the projector first and select DVI (DIGITAL) from the source menu before turning on your PC.
Failure to do so may not activate the digital output of the graphics card resulting in no picture being displayed. Should this happen, restart your PC.
Do not disconnect the DVI-D signal cable while the projector is running. If the signal cable has been disconnected and then re-connected, an image
may not be correctly displayed. Should this happen, restart your PC.
NOTE:
