Fire and Shock Precautions

• Ensure that there is sufcient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your projector. Allow at least 4 inches (10cm) of space between your projector and a wall.

• Do not try to touch the exhaust vent as it can become heated while the projector is turned on and immediately after the projector is turned off.

• 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 qualied service personnel.

• Do not place any objects on top of the projector.

• Do not touch the power plug during a thunderstorm. Doing so can cause electrical shock or re.

• The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-240V AC 50/60 Hz. Ensure that your power supply ts this requirement before attempting to use your projector.

• Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result.

• Keep any items (magnifying glass etc.) out of the light path of the projector. The light path being projected from the lamp is extensive, therefore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out of the lamp, can cause unpredictable outcome such as a re or injury to the eyes.

• Do not block the light path between the light source and the lamp with any objects. Doing so could cause the object to catch on re.

• Do not place any objects, which are easily affected by heat, in front of the projector lamp or a projector exhaust vent.

Doing so could lead to the object melting or getting your hands burned from the heat that is emitted from the light output and exhaust.

• Handle the power cord carefully. A damaged or frayed power cord can cause electric shock or re.

- Do not use any power cord other than the one supplied.

- Do not bend or tug the power cord excessively.

- Do not place the power cord under the projector, or any heavy object.
