You can place the projector on almost any at sur
face to project an image.
You can also install the projector in a ceiling mount if you want to use it in
a xed location. An optional ceiling mount is required when suspending the
projector from a ceiling.
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.
•
Place the projector so it squarely faces the screen, not at an angle.
If you cannot install the projector squarely facing the screen, correct
any r
esulting keystone distortion using the projector controls. For the
best quality images, we recommend adjusting the installation position
of the projector to achieve the correct image size and shape.
Warning
•
Yo
u must install a ceiling mount when suspending the projector from a ceiling. If
you do not install the projector correctly, it could fall and cause damage or injury.
•
Do not use adhesives on the ceiling mount xing 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 ceiling mount. is could cause
serious injury to anyone under the ceiling mount and could damage the projector.
•
Failure to install the ceiling mount and projector may cause the projector to fall.
Secure the mount to all of the projector's ceiling mount xing points as specied
in the projector's User's Guide. Also, secure the projector and the mount using
wires that are strong enough to hold their weight. Be sure to use a mount specied
by Epson that is compatible with this projector.
•
Do not install the projector in a location subject to high levels of dust or humidity,
or in a location subject to smoke or steam. Otherwise, it could cause a re
or electric shock to occur. e projector's case could also deteriorate and be
damaged causing the projector to fall from the mount.
Examples of environments that could cause the projector to fall due to case
deterioration
•
Locations subject to excessive smoke or airborne oil particles, such as factories
or kitchens
•
Locations containing volatile solvents or chemicals, such as factories or
laboratories
•
Locations where the projector could be subjected to detergents or chemicals,
such as factories or kitchens
•
Locations in which aroma oils are oen used, such as relaxation rooms
•
Near devices that produce excessive smoke, airborne oil particles, or foam at
events

Warning
•
Do n
ot cover the projector's air intake or air exhaust vents. If the vents are
covered, the internal temperature could rise and cause a re.
•
Do not use or store the projector in locations where it will be subject to dust or
dirt. Otherwise, the quality of the projected image may decline, or the air lter
may become clogged, resulting in a malfunction or re.
•
Do not install the projector on an unstable surface or in a location beyond the
weight specications 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.
•
Do not install in locations where salt damage could occur, or in locations subject
to corrosive gas such as sulphuric gas from hot springs. Otherwise, corrosion
could cause the projector to fall. It could also cause the projector to malfunction.
Attention
•
Do n
ot operate the projector on its side. is may cause the projector to
malfunction.
•
If you are using the projector at altitudes above 1,500 m, set the High Altitude
Mode setting to On in the projector's menu to ensure the projector's internal
temperature is regulated properly.
s Extended > Operation > High Altitude Mode

Turning On the Projector
Warning
•
Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is on. is 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 re. Also,
the lens may get hot due to the reected light which could cause the projector
to malfunction. To stop projection, use the A/V Mute function, or turn o 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 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.
