Warning and Cautions on Installation

An optional ceiling mount is required when suspending the projector from a ceiling.
s
"Optional Accessories" p.203
Warning
Do not use or install the projector where it may be subject to water or rain, or high humidity, such as outdoors, in a bathroom, or shower room, and so on. Otherwise, it could cause a fire or electric shock.
A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a ceiling (ceiling mount). If installation work is not carried out correctly, the projector could fall down. This may result in injury or accidents. Contact your local dealer or the nearest address provided in the Epson Projector Contact List. s Epson Projector Contact List
If you use adhesives on the ceiling mount fixing points to prevent the screws from loosening, or if you use things such as lubricants or oils on the projector, the projector case may crack causing it to fall from its ceiling mount. This could cause an accident or injury to anyone under the ceiling mount. When installing or adjusting the ceiling mount, do not use adhesives to prevent the screws from loosening and do not use oils or lubricants and so on.
Do not cover the projector's air intake vent or air exhaust vent. If either of the vents are covered, the internal temperature could rise and cause a fire.
Do not place flammable objects in front of the lens. If you set the schedule to turn on the projector automatically, any flammable objects placed in front of the lens could cause a fire.
Do not tie the power cord and other connection cables together. Otherwise, it could cause a fire.
Only use the specified power-supply voltage. Otherwise, it could cause a fire or electric shock.
Safety Warning and Cautions
4
Warning
Be careful when handling the power cord. Otherwise, it could cause a fire or electric shock. Note the following when handling the power cord.
- Do not plug multiple power cords in a single electric outlet.
- Do not plug in the power cord if there are any foreign substances, such as dust, stuck to it.
- Make sure you insert the power cord all the way in.
- Do not plug in or unplug the power cord with wet hands.
- Do not pull the cord when unplugging the power cord. Make sure you hold it by the plug.
Do not use a damaged power cord. Otherwise, it could cause a fire or electric shock. Note the following when handling the power cord.
- Do not alter the power cord.
- Do not place any heavy objects on the power cord.
- Do not bend, twist, or pull the power cord forcibly.
- Do not layout the power cord near a heating device.
Caution
Attention
Do not install the projector in a location that is subject to vibration or shock.
Do not install the projector near a high-voltage line or object that generates magnetism. Otherwise the projector may not work correctly.
Do not use or store the projector in a location that is subject to extreme temperatures. Also, avoid sudden temperature changes.
Make sure you use or store the projector in a place that is within the following operating or storage temperature ranges.
- Operating temperature range 0 to +45˚C (Altitude of 0 to 1,500 m, no condensation) 0 to +40˚C (Altitude of 1,501 to 3,048 m, no condensation)
- Storage temperature range: -10 to +60˚C (No condensation)
When using at an altitude that exceeds 1,500 m, set High Altitude Mode to On.
Extended - Operation - High Altitude Mode p.122
s
Do not place the projector on an unstable surface, such as on an unstable table or tilted surface. When projecting vertically, install the projector appropriately to prevent the projector from falling. Otherwise it may cause an injury.
Safety Warning and Cautions
5
Attention
When projecting with the projector tilted, do not tilt it at more than the specified angle. This may cause malfunctions or accidents to occur.
Angle of tilt
Vertical: Tilt up to ±30˚. If you use the projector tilted at an angle of more than 30˚ it could be damaged and cause an accident.
30
30
Horizontal: Can be tilted within the range of expansion and contraction for the rear feet.
Using the projector at an improper angle or setting the Configuration menu incorrectly causes malfunctions and shortens the operating life of optical parts.
30
30
Attention
Make sure there is a gap as shown in the following illustration between the wall and the air exhaust vent and the air intake vent.
Air exhaust vent Air intake vent
When setting up multiple projectors, make sure there is a gap of at least 50 cm between the projectors. Also, make sure that the heat from the air exhaust vent does not go into the air intake vent.
Do not place the projector directly on top of another projector.
a
The image is unstable immediately after turning on the projector. After starting projection, do not touch the projector for at least 30 minutes, and then adjust the focus, zoom, and lens shift.
When adjusting the image height with the vertical lens shift, adjust by moving the image from the bottom to the top. If it is adjusted from the top to the bottom, the image position may move down slightly after adjusting.
Safety Warning and Cautions

Warning and Cautions on Usage

Warning
Do not cover the projector's air intake vent or air exhaust vent. If either of the vents is covered, the internal temperature could rise and cause a fire.
Do not look into the lens while projecting.
During projection, do not block the light from the projector with the lens
cover (removable) or a book and so on. If the light from the projector is blocked, the area on which the light shines
becomes hot which could cause it to melt, burn, or start a fire. Also, the lens may get hot due to the reflected light which could cause the projector to malfunction. To stop projection, use the A/V Mute function, or turn off the projector.
A mercury lamp with high internal pressure is used as the projector's light source. If the lamp is subjected to vibrations, shocks, or if it is used for an overly extended length of time, the lamp may break or it may not turn on. If the lamp explodes, gases may escape and small fragments of glass may be scattered which could cause an injury. Be sure to observe the instructions below.
- Do not disassemble or damage the lamp or subject it to any impacts.
- Do not bring your face close to the projector while it is in use.
- Particular care should be taken when the projector is installed to a ceiling, as small pieces of glass may fall down when the lamp cover is removed.
When cleaning the projector or replacing the lamp yourself, be very careful not to allow such pieces of glass to get into the eyes or mouth.
Caution
Do not place objects that may become warped or otherwise affected by heat near the air exhaust vent and do not put your face or hands near the vent while projection is in progress.
Attention
Do not repeatedly turn off the power and immediately back on. Turning the power on and off frequently may shorten the lamp's operating life.
Try not to touch the lens section with your hand or fingers. If fingerprints or oils are left on the surface of the lens, projection quality deteriorates.
When storing, make sure you remove the batteries from the remote control. If the batteries are left in the remote control for an extended period of time, they may leak.
If the lamp breaks, ventilate the area immediately, and contact a doctor if any fragments of broken glass are inhaled or get into the eyes or mouth. In addition, consult your local regulations regarding proper disposal and do not place in the trash.
Safety Warning and Cautions

Notes on Transporting

There are many glass parts and precision components inside the projector. To prevent damage due to impacts when transporting, handle the projector as follows.
Attention
Moving Nearby
- Turn off the power to the projector and disconnect all cables.
- Attach the cover to the lens.
When Transporting After checking the points in "Moving Nearby", prepare the following and then pack up the projector.
- Upon purchase, attach the protective pad that is attached around the lens unit.
- Move the lens position to the home position. s "Adjusting the Position of the Projected Image (Lens Shift)"
p.28
- Enclose the projector securely in packaging material to protect it from shock, and place it into a strong cardboard container. Be sure to notify the carrier company that it is precision equipment.

Preparing the Projector

This chapter explains how to install the projector and connect projection sources.

Installation Settings

Changing the direction of the image (Projection)
The projector supports the following four different projection methods. Install the projector according to the conditions of the installation location.
Project images from in front of the screen. (Front projection)
Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from in front of a screen. (Front/Ceil‐ ing projection)
Project images from behind a translucent screen. (Rear projec‐ tion)
Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from behind a translucent screen. (Rear/Ceiling projection)
Warning
A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a ceiling (ceiling mount). If installation work is not carried out correctly, the projector could fall down. This may result in injury or accidents.
Contact your dealer or the nearest address provided in the Support and Service Guide if you want to use this installation method. s Epson Projector
Contact List
If you use adhesives on the Ceiling mount fixing points to prevent the screws from loosening, or if you use things such as lubricants or oils on the projector, the projector case may crack causing it to fall from its ceiling mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the ceiling mount and could damage the projector. When installing or adjusting the ceiling mount, do not use adhesives to prevent the screws from loosening and do not use oils or lubricants and so on.
Do not cover the projector's air intake vent or air exhaust vent. If either of the vents are covered, the internal temperature could rise and cause a fire.
Attention
Do not use the projector on its side. This may cause malfunctions to occur.
