Outdoor Antenna Grounding
• If an outdoor antenna is installed,
follow the precautions below. An outdoor antenna system should
ENGLISH
not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can come in contact with such power lines or circuits as death or serious injury can occur. Be sure the antenna system is grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) in the U.S.A. provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements for the grounding electrode.
Antenna grounding according to the National Electrical Code, ANSI/ NFPA 70
For USA
NOTE TO CABLE/TV INSTALLER
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820 - 40 of the National Electric Code (U.S.A.). The code provides guidelines for proper grounding and,
in particular, species that the cable
ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of the cable entry as practical.

Installation

Installation Precautions
• Place the projector in a well-
ENGLISH
ventilated environment.
- To prevent internal overheating, install the projector in a well­ventilated place. Do not place anything near the projector. That may block its air vents. If the air vents are blocked, the internal temperature of the projector will increase.
- Do not place the projector on a carpet or rug. If the projector’s inlet vent is on the bottom, be careful not to block the vent and always use the projector on a solid, level surface.
- Be sure to prevent foreign objects such as paper debris from entering the projector.
- Leave an adequate open area (30 cm (11.8 inches) or more) around the projector.
• Do not place the projector in a hot,
cool, or humid environment.
• Do not place the projector in a place
where it will easily attract dust.
- This may result in re.
• Never open any cover on the
projector. There is a high risk of electric shock.
• The projector is manufactured using
high-precision technology. You may, however, see tiny black dots and/ or bright colored dots (red, blue or green) that continuously appear on the projector screen. This is a normal result of the manufacturing process and does not indicate a malfunction.
• The remote control may not work
in an environment where a lamp equipped with electronic ballasts or a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp is installed. Replace the lamp with an international standard lamp for the remote control to work normally.
• To install to the ceiling, attach the
ceiling-type bracket to the projector with M4 x 8 mm screws.
• Do not overtighten the screws. It
may damage the case, causing the projector to fall and cause a serious injury. (Recommended Torque: 4.34 ~ 6.94 ibf-in (5~8 kgf·cm))

Projection Distance per Screen Size
1 Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface, together with the PC or audio/
video source.
2 Place the projector an appropriate distance away from the screen. The distance
ENGLISH
between the projector and the screen determines the actual size of the image.
3 Position the projector so that the lens is at a right angle to the screen. If the
projector is not at a right angle, the projected image will look distorted. To correct the distortion, use the Edge Adjustment function.
