Do not place combustibles behind the cooling fan. For example, cloth, paper, matches, aerosol cans or gas lighters that present special hazards when over heated. Do not look into the projection lens while the illumination lamp is turned on. Exposure of your eyes to the strong light can result in impaired eyesight. Do not look into the inside of this unit through vents (ventilation holes), etc. Do not look at the illumination lamp directly by opening the cabinet while the illumination lamp is turned on. The illumination lamp also contains ultraviolet rays and the light is so powerful that your eyesight can be impaired. Do not drop, hit, or damage the light-source lamp (lamp unit) in any way. It may cause the light-source lamp to break and lead to injuries. Do not use a damaged light source lamp. If the light-source lamp is broken, ask your dealer to repair it. Fragments from a broken light-source lamp may cause injuries. The light-source lamp used in this projector is a high pressure mercury lamp. Be careful when disposing of the light-source lamp. If anything is unclear, please consult your dealer. Do not ceiling-mount the projector to a place which tends to vibrate; otherwise, the attaching fixture of the projector could be broken by the vibration, possibly causing it to fall or overturn, which could lead to personal injury. Use only the accessory cord designed for this product to prevent shock. For health reasons, please take a break of about 5-15 minutes every 30-60 minutes and let your eyes rest. Please refrain from watching any 3D-images when you feel tired, unwell or if you feel any other discomfort. Moreover, in case you see a double image, please adjust the equipment and software for proper display. Please stop using the unit if the double image is still visible after adjustment. Once every three years, please perform an internal test. This unit is provided with replacement parts needed to maintain its function (such as cooling fans). Estimated replacement time of parts can vary greatly depending on frequency of use and the respective environment. For replacement, please consult your dealer, or the nearest authorized JVC service center. When fixing the unit to the ceiling, Please note that we do not take any responsibility, even during the warranty period, if the product is damaged due to use of metal fixtures used for fixation to the ceiling other than our own or if the installation environment of said metal fixtures is not appropriate. If the unit is suspended from the ceiling during use, please be careful in regard to the ambient temperature of the unit. If you use a central heating, the temperature close to the ceiling will be higher than normally expected. Video images can burn into the electronic component parts. Please do not display screens with still images of high brightness or high contrast, such as found in video games and computer programs. Over a long period of time it might stick to the picture element. There is no problem with the playback of moving images, e.g. normal video footage.

Not using the unit for a long time can lead to malfunction. Please power it on and let it run occasionally. Please avoid using the unit in a room where cigarettes are smoked. It is impossible to clean optical component parts if they are contaminated by nicotine or tar. This might lead to performance degradation. Please watch from a distance three times the height of the projected image size. Persons with photosensitivity, any kind of heart disease, or weak health should not use 3D glasses. Watching 3D-images might be cause of illness. If you feel any change in your physical condition, please stop watching immediately and consult a physician if necessary. When watching 3D images, it is recommended to take regular breaks. As the length and frequency of the required breaks differ for every person, please judge according to your own condition. If your child watches while wearing 3D glasses, it should be accompanied by its parents or an adult guardian. The adult guardian should be careful to avoid situations where the child’s eyes might become tired, as responses to tiredness and discomfort, etc., are hard to detect, and it is possible for the physical condition to deteriorate very quickly. As the visual sense is not yet fully developed in children under the age of 6, please consult a physician in regard to any problem concerning 3D-images if necessary. Note that when using the 3D feature, the video output may appear different from the original video image due to image conversion on the device.
* DO NOT allow any unqualified person to install the unit.
Be sure to ask your dealer to install the unit (e.g.attaching it to the ceiling) since special technical knowledge and skills are required for installation. If installation is performed by an unqualified person, it may cause personal injury or electrical shock.

Do not use optical instruments (such as magnifying glass or reflector) viewing the laser output. It may pose an eye hazard. When turning on the projector, ensure that no one is looking into the projection lens. Do not look into the lens and openings when the light is on. Doing so would have serious effects on the human body. Do not detach or attach the projection lens with the power connected. Attempting to disassemble, repair or modify the projector yourself may lead to serious safety issues. Using a faulty product not only results in electrical shock or fire hazard, it can cause visual impairment. When abnormality occur, stop using the projector immediately and send it to your authorized dealer for repair.
