Caution
• Do not use the Touch Unit near magnetic storage media such as magnetic cards, or precision electronic devices such as computers, digital watches, or cell phones. Data could be corrupted or a malfunction could occur.
• When installing the Touch Unit on a magnetic surface, be careful not to trap your fingers or any other part of your body between the magnet and the installation surface.
Attention
• Do not connect the Touch Unit to any devices except for EB-696Ui. The device could malfunction, or laser light could leak beyond the limit.
• Make sure you use the supplied Touch Unit connection cable. Operations are not possible with a commercially available cable.
• When disposing of the Touch Unit, do not disassemble it. Dispose according to your local or national laws and regulations.

Projector Placement

23
You can install the projector on a wall, or place it on a table to project images.
You need the optional mounts when suspending the projector from a ceiling, installing it on a wall, or placing it vertically on a table.
Note the following points when selecting a projector location:
• Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface or install it using a compatible mount.
• Leave plenty of space around and under the projector for ventilation, and do not place it on top of or next to anything that could block the vents.
• Position the projector within reach of a grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.
• Place the projector parallel to the screen.
If you cannot install the projector parallel to the screen, correct
a
keystone distortion using the projector controls.
Warning
• A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a wall or ceiling. If you do not install the projector correctly, it could fall and cause damage or injury.
• Do not use adhesives on the wall mount plate fixing points or the ceiling mount fixing points to prevent the screws from loosening, or use lubricants, oils, or similar substances 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.
• Do not cover the projector's air intake or air exhaust vents. If the vents are covered, the internal temperature could rise and cause a fire.
• Do not install the projector on an unstable surface or in a location beyond the weight specifications of the projector. Otherwise, it could fall or topple causing an accident and injury.
• When installing the projector in a high position, take measures to prevent falling by using wires to ensure safety in an emergency, such as an earthquake, and to prevent accidents. If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.
Attention
• If you are using the projector at altitudes above 1500 m, set the High Altitude Mode setting to On in the projector's Extended menu to ensure the projector's
internal temperature is regulated properly. s Extended > Operation > High Altitude Mode
• Try not to setup the projector in locations subject to high humidity and dust, or in locations subject to smoke from fires or tobacco smoke.

Settings when Using the Interactive Features

When using the interactive features, project from in front of the screen.
Set Projection to Front/Upside Down or Front.
Attention
The interactive features are operated using infrared communication. Note the following points when installing the projector.
• Make sure there is no strong light or sunlight shining on the interactive pen receiver, the projection screen, the projector itself, or the rear of the projector.
• Do not install the projector where it could be subjected to direct sunlight through a window. This could cause the interactive features to malfunction.
• Install the projector so that the interactive pen receiver is not too close to fluorescent lights. If the surrounding area is too bright, the interactive features may not operate correctly.
• If there is any dust stuck to the interactive pen receiver, it could interfere with infrared communication and the interactive features may not operate correctly. Clean the receiver if it is dirty.
• Do not put paint or any stickers on the cover of the interactive pen receiver.
• When using the interactive features, do not use an infrared remote control or microphone in the same room. The interactive pen could malfunction.
• Do not use devices that generate powerful noise, such as rotary devices or transformers, near the projector, as the interactive features may not operate correctly.
Make sure you select the correct Projection option in the projector's Extended menu according to the installation method being used.
• The default Projection setting is Front/Upside Down.

• Distortions may occur in the projected image depending on the material of the screen and the installation method.
• When using the interactive features, install the projector so that the projected screen is a rectangle without any distortion.
• When using the interactive features in the same room as multiple projectors, interactive pen operations may become unstable. In this case, connect the optional remote control cable set to the projectors, and change Sync of Projectors to Wired from the projector's Extended menu.
