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.

The Video / Audio connection between components can

be made with shielded video and audio cables. For best performance, video cables should utilize 75 _ 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

components require. Also determine the length of cable

you'll need.

Keep the unit at least 100 mm (4-) away from the

wall to provide proper ventilation because warm air

is discharged. Blocking the ventilation opening of

the cooling fan may damage the unit.
