Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
As the owner of a new Multimedia Projector, you are probably eager to try out your new projector. Before you do, we suggest that your spend a little time reading this manual to familiarize yourself with the operating procedures so that you will receive maximum satisfaction from the many features included in your new projector. This owner's manual will acquaint you with your projector's features. Reading it will help us too. Through the years, we have found that many service requests were not caused by problems with our projectors. They were caused by problems that could have been prevented, if the owner had followed the instructions in the manual. You can often correct operating problems yourself. If your projector fails to work properly, see "TROUBLESHOOTING" section on pages 35 ~ 36 and try the solution marked for each problem.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
This Projector has a grounding-type AC line plug. This is a safety feature to be sure that the plug will fit into the power outlet. Do not try to defeat this safety feature. This projector produces intense light from the projection lens. Do not stare directly into the lens as possible eye damage could result. Be especially careful that children do not stare directly into the beam. The Remote Control Unit, supplied to this projector, emits the laser beam as the Laser Pointer function from the Laser Light Window while pressing the LASER button (for 1 minute). Do not look into the Laser Light Window or shine the laser beam on yourself or other people. Eye damage may result. This projector should be set in the way indicated. If not, It may result in fire hazard. If the projector will not be used for an extended time, unplug the projector from the power outlet.

Use only with a cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the projector. Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturer's instructions, and should use a mounting kit approved by the manufacturers.
Do not expose this unit to rain or use near water... for example, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, etc...
Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided for ventilation, to insure reliable operation of the equipment and to protect it from overheating.
The openings should never be covered with cloth or other materials, and the bottom opening should not be blocked by placing the projector on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This projector should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register.
This projector should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a book case unless proper ventilation is provided.
This projector should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied, consult your authorized dealer or local power company.
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in fire or electric shock. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this projector where the cord may be damaged by persons walking on it.
Never push objects of any kind into this projector through cabinet slots as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the projector.
Do not attempt to service this projector yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Unplug this projector from wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: a. When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed. b. If liquid has been spilled into the projector. c. If the projector has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the projector does not operate normally by following the
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the projector to normal operation.
e. If the projector has been dropped or the cabinet has been
damaged.
f. When the projector exhibits a distinct change in
performance-this indicates a need for service.
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
Upon completion of any service or repairs to this projector, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks to determine that the projector is in safe operating condition.
This projector is equipped with a grounding type AC line plug. Should you be unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician. Do not defeat the safety purpose of this grounding
type plug. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the projectors. For added protection to the projector during a lightning storm,
or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet. This will prevent damage due to lightning and power line surges.
An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
If the projector is to be built into a compartment or similarly enclosed, the minimum distances must be maintained. Do not cover the ventilation slot on the projector. Heat build-up can reduce the service life of your projector, and can also be dangerous.
