Guide
User’s
manual
1.
Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unob­structed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your projector. Allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between your projector and a wall.
2. Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from falling into your projector.
Do not attempt to retrieve any objects that might fall into your projec­tor. Do not insert any metal objects such as a wire or screwdriver into your projector. If something should fall into your projector, dis­connect it immediately and have the object removed by a qualified NEC service personnel.
3. Do not place any liquids on top of your projector.
4. Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result.
5. Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the projector. The light being projected from the lens is extensive, there­fore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out of the lens, can cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury to the eyes.
6. Do not cover the lens with the supplied lens cap or equivalent while the projector is on. Doing so can lead to melting of the cap and possibly burning your hands due to the heat emitted from the light output.
7. The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-120 or 200-240 V 50/60 Hz AC. Ensure that your power supply fits this requirement before attempting to use your projector.
8. Handle the power cable carefully and avoid excessive bending. A damaged cord can cause electric shock or fire.
9. If the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time, disconnect the plug from the power outlet.
10. Do not touch the power plug during a thunderstorm. Doing so can cause electrical shock or fire.
• Allow a minimum of 90 seconds to elapse after turning off the pro­jector. Then turn off the main power switch, disconnect the power cable and allow 60 minutes to cool the projector before replacing the lamp.
