14 PREPARATION

Installation

Installation Precautions

Place the projector in a well-ventilat- ed environment.

-To prevent internal heat from building up, install the projector in a wellventilated place.

Do not place anything near the projector as this may block its air vents. If the air vents are blocked, the internal temperature will increase.

-Do not place the projector on a carpet or rug. If a projector model has its inlet vent on its bottom, do not block the vent and use the projector on a leveled solid surface.

-Be sure to prevent foreign objects such as paper debris from entering the projector.

Do not place the projector in a hot or humid environment.

- Do not place the projector in a hot, cold, or humid environment. (See 57 Page regarding operating temperature and humidity.)

Do not place the projector in a place where it will easily attract dust.

- This may cause a fire.

Do not remove any covers except for the lens cap. 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 internationally standardized lamp for the remote control to work normally.

-Leave an adequate distance (30 cm or more) around the projector.

PREPARATION 15

Projection Distance per Screen Size

1Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface, together with the PC or audio/video source.

2 Place the projector at an appropriate distance from the screen. The distance between the projector and the screen determines the actual size of the image.

3 Position the projector so that the lens is set at a right angle to the screen. If the projector is not set at a right angle, the image on the screen will be tilted and the image quality will be poor. If the screen image is crooked, use the Keystone function. (see page21)

4 Connect the power cords of the projector and the connected devices to the wall outlet.
