When using your projector, always follow basic safety precautions:
1. Read and understand all instructions before using this equipment.
2. Operate this projector with 110- to 125-volt 60 Hz current only. Incorrect voltage can cause projector
malfunction. See “Startup” on page 3 for Models III BR and III ABR, which feature a multi-voltage
selector.)
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children, or others who may not
understand the need for these precautions. Do not leave the projector unattended during use.
4. Be careful not to touch hot parts. For lamp replacement, allow the module to cool before touching the
lamp and the surrounding area. Do not place the lamp module on heat-sensitive surfaces.
5. Do not operate your projector if the cord is damaged or if the projector has been dropped or damaged
(see “How to Obtain Service” on page 30).
6. Position the cord so that it is not tripped over, pulled, or placed in contact with hot surfaces.
7. If an extension cord is necessary, use a cord with a current rating at least equal to that of the projector.
Cords rated for less amperage than the projector may overheat.
8. Always unplug the projectorfrom the electrical outlet before cleaning and servicing and when it is not
in use.
9. Allow the projector to cool before storing.
10. Do not immerse this equipment in water or other liquids.
11. Donot disassemble this projector. Use a qualified service technician when service or repair is required.
Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock the next time the projector is used.
12. Use only safety electrical low-voltage (SELV) devices.
13. The use of an accessory attachment not recommended by the manufacturer may increase risk of
damage.
14. Keep the air-flow vents unobstructed.

familiar with your KODAK EKTAGRAPHIC III Slide Projector and how to
operate it properly.
Operation
Startup
Models III BR
and ABR Only
Before you turn on your new KODAK EKTAGRAPHIC III BR or ABR Slide
Projector, it is critical to set the voltage selector to the proper setting. Use
the proper fuse for the voltage selection. See the fuse label on the back of the
projector.
The voltage selector on the KODAK EKTAGRAPHIC III BR or ABR Slide
Projector is located on the base of the projector. Using a small object, such as
a coin, you can set the voltage selector for the proper voltage (100, 115, 130,
220, 230, and 240 V).

detachable power cord that is packaged separately (not wound on the PowerCord Retainer).

Loading the Slide Tray
A KODAK EKTAGRAPHIC Universal Slide Tray is designed to hold up to
80 slides. Be sure that your slide mounts are in good condition; frayed or bent
mounts may fail to drop into the projector. A variety of slide trays are
available with capacity up to 140 slides. See your dealer in Kodak products
for a complete list of Kodak trays and accessories.
Note: Do not attempt to project slides mounted with sticky or loose tape.
Place the tray over the center post of the projector. Align the "0" slot with the
gate index; the tray will drop into position.
If your 80-slide tray does not drop easily, rotate the metal plate on the bottom
of the tray until it locks into position. For a 140-slide tray, secure the lock
ring, invert the tray, and align the index hole with the index notch. Slide and
hold the tray release latch in the direction of the arrow, and turn the bottom
plate until the index hole and notch align. Then release the latch.
