Preparing the Projector

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

Installing the Projector

Installation Methods

The projector supports the following six different installation methods. Install the projector according to the installation location.

Turn the projector off when installing the projector or changing the installation method. Turn the power back on after completing installation.

Warning

• A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a wall or ceiling. If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.

• If you use adhesives on the wall mount plate fixing points or 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 mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the mount and could damage the projector. When installing or adjusting the mount, do not use adhesives to prevent the screws from loosening and do not use lubricant or oil 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 use the projector in a location subject to combustible or explosive gas. The projector may catch fire because of the high temperature of the lamp inside the projector.

• We recommend using a smooth, board type screen without any
