Installation

Connecting to the AC power cord

This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100­240 V AC and it automatically selects the correct input voltage. It is designed to work with a single­phase power system having a grounded neutral conductor. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not plug into any other type of power system. If you are not sure of the type of power being
supplied, consult your authorized dealer or service
center. Connect the projector with all peripheral equipment before turning it on.
The AC outlet should be near this equipment and must be easily accessible.
√ Note: Unplug the AC power cord when the projector is not in use. When the projector is connected to an outlet with AC power cord, it is in stand-by mode and consumes a little electric power.
Note on the power cord
AC power cord must meet the requirements of the country where you use the projector. Conrm the AC
plug type with the chart below and proper AC power cord must be used.
