altitude of 7500 feet (2286 m) to 9842 feet (3000 m)
Doing so may cause an unstable display and could lead to projector damage. Do not use or store the
projector where it may be exposed to sudden changes in temperature.
• Do not store the projector outside of the required temperature range of 14 to 140 °F (–10 to 60 ° C) or
in direct sunlight for long periods of time. Doing so may cause damage to the case.
• Do not place anything that can become warped or damaged by heat near the exhaust vents. Do not
bring your hands or face close to the vents while projection is in progress. Do not bring your face close
to the projector while it is in use.
• Before you move the projector, make sure its power is turned off, the plug is disconnected from the
outlet, and all cables are disconnected.
• Do not place the source of an open flame, such as a lit candle, on or near the projector.
• 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 Blank function, or turn off the projector.
• Do not modify the power cord. Do not place heavy objects on top of the power cord or bend, twist, or
pull it excessively. Keep the power cord away from hot electrical appliances.
