Introduction
Usage Guidelines
•
Do not look directly into the projection lens when the lamp is
turned on. The bright light may harm your eyes.
•
Do not block the grills on the projector. Restricting the air flow
can cause it to overheat and turn off. If this happens, you must
wait a minute before attempting to turn it back on.
•
Handle the projector as you would any product with glass
components. Be especially careful not to drop it.
•
Avoid leaving the projector in direct sunlight or extreme cold
for extended periods of time. If this happens, allow it to reach
room temperature before use.
•
Transport the projector in a vendor-approved hard or soft case.
Part numbers for these cases are listed on page 45.
