Various Setting Methods

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, lubricants, or oil on the ceiling mount fixing points to prevent 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 projector and also damage the
projector.

•

Do not install it on an unstable shelf or in a place out of load range. Otherwise, it could fall or topple causing
an accident and injury.

•

When installing it in a high position such as on a shelf, take measures against falling by using wires to ensure
the safety in an emergency, such as an earthquake, and prevent accidents. If it is not installed correctly, it
could fall causing an accident and injury.

•

Do not block the air intake vent and air exhaust vent of the projector. Blocking its air intake vent and air
exhaust vent may trap heat inside causing fire.

Attention

•

Do not setup the projector in locations subject to high humidity and dust, or in locations subject to smoke
from fires or tobacco smoke.

•

Do not use the projector installed vertically. Doing so could cause a malfunction.

•

Clean the air filter once every three months. Clean it more often if the environment is particularly dusty.

Warnings Regarding Viewing 3D Images

43

Useful Functions

Caution

Viewing Time

•

When viewing 3D images, always take periodic breaks during extended viewing.
Long periods of viewing 3D images may cause eye fatigue.
The amount of time and frequency of such breaks varies from person to person. If your eyes still feel tired or
uncomfortable even after taking a break from viewing, stop viewing immediately.

Caution

Watching 3D Images

•

If your eyes feel fatigued or uncomfortable when viewing 3D images, stop viewing immediately.
Continuing to view the 3D images could cause you to feel unwell.

•

When viewing 3D images be sure to always wear 3D Glasses. Do not attempt to view 3D images without 3D
Glasses.
Doing so could cause you to feel unwell.

•

Do not place any breakable or fragile objects around you when using 3D Glasses.
3D images may cause you to move your body involuntarily, resulting in damage to nearby items or personal
injury.

•

Only wear 3D Glasses when viewing 3D images. Do not move around while wearing 3D Glasses.
Your vision may appear darker than normal, causing you to fall or injure yourself.

•

Try to stay as level with the viewing screen as possible when viewing 3D images.
Viewing 3D images at an angle reduces the 3D effect and may cause you to feel unwell due to unintended
color changes.

•

If using 3D Glasses in a room with fluorescent or LED lighting, you may see flashing or flickering throughout
the room. If this should occur, reduce the lighting until the flickering goes away or turn off the lights completely
when viewing 3D images. In some very rare cases, this flickering could trigger seizures or fainting for some
individuals. If you begin to feel uncomfortable or unwell at any time when viewing 3D images, stop
immediately.

•

Stay at least three times the height of the screen away from the screen when viewing 3D images.
The recommended viewing distance for an 80-inch screen is at least 3 meters, and at least 3.6 meters for a
100-inch screen.
Sitting or standing any closer than the recommended viewing distance may result in eye fatigue.

Caution

Health Risks

•

You should not use 3D Glasses if you are sensitive to light, have a heart condition, or are unwell.
Doing so could aggravate your pre-existing conditions.

Caution

Recommended Age of Use

•

The minimum recommended age to view 3D images is six years old.

•

Children under the age of six are still developing and viewing 3D images may cause complications. Consult
your doctor if you have any concerns.

•

Children viewing 3D images through 3D Glasses should always be accompanied by an adult. It is often difficult
to tell when a child is feeling tired or uncomfortable, which could result in them feeling suddenly unwell.
Always check with your child to ensure that they are not experiencing any eye fatigue during viewing.

Maintenance

Cleaning the Parts

You should clean the projector if it becomes dirty or if the quality of projected images starts to deteriorate.

Warning

Do not use sprays that contain flammable gas to remove dirt and dust from the projector's lens, air filter,
and so on. The projector may catch fire due to the high internal temperature of the lamp.

Cleaning the air filter

Clean the air filter if dust has accumulated on the air filter or when the following message is displayed.

"The projector is overheating. Make sure nothing is blocking the air vent, and clean or replace the air
filter."

Attention

•

If dust collects on the air filter, it can cause the internal temperature of the projector to rise, and this can lead
to problems with operation and shorten the optical engine's service life. It is recommended that you clean
the air filter at least once every three months. Clean them more often than this if using the projector in a
particularly dusty environment.

•

Do not rinse the air filter in water. Do not use detergents or solvents.

•

Lightly brush the air filter to clean it. If it is brushed too strongly, dust will be ground into the air filter and
cannot be removed.

•

Do not use an air duster. Combustible material may remain, and dust may enter the precision parts.

Remove the air filter.

Cleaning the main unit

Before cleaning, make sure you unplug the charging adapter from the outlet.

Clean the projector's surface by wiping it gently with a soft cloth.

If it is particularly dirty, moisten the cloth with water containing a small amount of neutral detergent, and
then firmly wring the cloth dry before using it to wipe the surface.

Attention

Do not use volatile substances such as wax, alcohol, or thinner to clean the projector's surface. The quality
of the case may change or the paint may peel off.

85

Maintenance

Cleaning the lens

Before cleaning, make sure you unplug the charging adapter from the outlet.

After manually opening the lens shutter, carefully wipe away any dirt on the lens with a cloth for cleaning
glasses and so on.

After cleaning, close the lens shutter.

Attention

Do not rub the lens with harsh materials or handle the lens too roughly as it can easily become damaged.
