English

The lightning ash with arrow head within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous
voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufcient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert
the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance
(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS

APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. DANGEROUS HIGH VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT INSIDE THE
ENCLOSURE. DO NOT OPEN THE CABINET. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY.

restricts air ow.

2. Do not use the projector near water or moisture. To reduce the risk of re and/or electric shock,
do not expose the projector to rain or moisture.

3. Do not install near heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves or any other apparatus such
as ampliers that emits heat.

4. Clean only with dry cloth.

5. Only use attachments/accessories specied by the manufacturer.

6. Do not use the unit if it has been physically damaged or abused.
Physical damage/abuse would be (but not limited to):
