This symbol warns the user that uninsulated voltage within the unit may have sufficient magnitude to cause electric shock. Therefore, it is dangerous to make any kind of contact with any inside part of this unit.
This symbol alerts the user that important literature concerning the operation and maintenance of this unit has been included. Therefore, it should be read carefully in order to avoid any problems.
The pictorial representation of a hot surface within a triangle is intended to tell the user that parts inside the product are a risk of burns to persons.
Note to CATV System Installer:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

Before Using

Receiver Location
This Projection Display is intended to be used with an optional stand or entertainment center. Consult your dealer for available options. Situate for comfortable viewing. Avoid placing where sunlight or other bright light (including reflections) will fall on the screen. Use of some types of fluorescent lighting can reduce Remote Control transmitter range. Adequate ventilation is essential to prevent internal component failure. Keep away from areas of excessive heat or moisture.
Optional External Equipment
The Video / Audio connection between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables. For best performance, video cables should utilize 75 Ω coaxial shielded cables. Cables are available from your dealer or electronics store. Before you purchase any cables, be sure you know what type of output and input connectors your various com po nents require. Also determine the length of cable you’ll need.

Notes
The picture and audio input signals connected to a terminal specified in “Monitor out” (p. 50) cannot be output from “OUTPUT”
• terminals. However, audio output can be obtained from “DIGITAL AUDIO OUT” terminal.
To prevent howling and image oscillation, set the “Monitor out” setting when connecting the VCR with loop-connection. (p. 50)
• When equipment (STB, DVD, etc.) is connected to HDMI or COMPONENT terminals, only audio signals can be obtained. From the
• output terminals, no video signals can be passed.
When receiving digital channel signals, all digital formats are down-converted to composite NTSC video to be output through the
• OUTPUT terminals.
