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

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,

Turn on the computer or video equipment you want to use after you turn on
the projector.
Connect the power cord to the projector's power inlet and plug it into
a
an electrical outlet.
The projector's power indicator turns blue. This indicates that the
projector is receiving power, but is not yet turned on (it is in standby
mode).
Press the power button on the control panel or remote control to turn
b
on the projector.
The projector beeps and the status indicator flashes blue as the
projector warms up. Once the projector is warmed up, the status
indicator stops flashing and turns blue.
Try the following if you do not see a projected image.
• Turn on the connected computer or video device.
• Change the screen output from the computer when using a laptop
computer.
• Insert a DVD or other video media, and press play (if necessary).
• Press the [Source Search] button on the control panel or remote control to
detect the source.
• Press the button for the desired video source on the remote control.
• If the Home screen is displayed, select the source you want to project.
Warning
• Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is on. This can damage your
eyes and is especially dangerous for children.
• When turning on the projector at a distance using the remote control, make sure
there is no one looking into the lens.
• During projection, do not block the light from the projector with a book or other
objects. 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 or 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 wall or
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.
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.

Safety Instructions for Interactive Features
The interactive feature operates by infrared communication. Note the
following important points when using this feature.
• Make sure there is no strong light or sunlight shining on the interactive pen
receiver and the projection screen.
• If there is any dust stuck to the interactive pen receiver, it could interfere
with infrared communication and you may not be able to use the features
normally. Clean the receiver if it is dirty.
• Do not put paint or any stickers on the cover of the interactive pen receiver.
• Do not use an infrared remote control or infrared microphone in the same
room because the interactive pen may malfunction.
• Do not use devices that generate powerful noise, such as rotary devices or
transformers, near the projector. You may not be able to operate the
interactive features.
