• 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 it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.

• 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.

Attention

• Do not use the projector on its side. This may cause malfunctions to occur.

• 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.

• An optional Ceiling mount is required when suspending the

projector from a ceiling. s "Optional Accessories" p.124
