Important Safety Instructions
When operating your projector, always follow basic safety precautions:
1. Read and understand all instructions before operating your projector.
2. Before you switch on your projector, ensure that the mains voltage input is correct or is
correctly adjusted for Models 2000, 1500, and 1000! Incorrect voltage can lead to malfunction
in the projector.
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. 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 81).
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 projector from the electrical outlet before cleaning and servicing and when
it is not in use.
9. Allow the project to cool before storing.
10. Do not immerse this equipment in water or other liquids.
11. Do not 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. Connect this projector to a grounded outlet.
15. Keep the air-flow vents unobstructed.

Start-up Models 2000, 1500, and 1000 only
Caution
Before you turn on your new KODAK EKTALITE Slide Projector, it is
critical to set the voltage selector to the proper setting.
The voltage selector is located on the base of the projector. You can set
the voltage selector for the proper voltage (100, 115, 130, 220, 230, and
240 V, 50/60 Hz) by turning the selector until the arrow of your main
voltage lines up with the arrow on the projector housing.

Operation
A 220, 230, or 240 main requires a 2.5 A H/250 V fuse. The 100, 115
or 130 V main requires a 5 A slow blow/250 V fuse. To fit or check the
fuse, pull out the fuse holder located beneath the power main.
At manufacture, the voltage selector is set at 240 V with a 2.5A
slow blow/250 V fuse fitted in the fuse holder. A spare fuse for
replacement is provided in the first compartment of the fuse holder.
Important
Countrieswith100, 115, or 130 V main will require removalofthe two
fuses in the fuse holder. Use the 5 A slow blow/250 V fuse, provided.
Set the voltage selector for your main voltage.
After you have set the correct voltage and fitted the required fuse, you
can safely plug the projector into your power main and switch it on.

Operation
Loading the
Slide Tray
The KODAK EKTAPRO 80 Slide Tray (with transparent cover) and
the KODAK EKTAGRAPHIC Universal Slide Tray are designed to
hold up to 80 slides. Be sure that your slide mounts are in good
condition; frayed or bent mounts or mounts with loose tape 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.
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 slide tray does not drop easily, rotate the metal plate on the
bottom of the tray until it locks into position.
