Setting Up
Cautions During Set-Up
Please make sure to obey the following when setting up the projector.
• Please do not set up the projector in locations subject to vibration or shocks.
Vibrations and shocks can damage the Projector and cause it to malfunction.
Please set up the projector in a location that is not exposed to vibrations or shocks.
• Please do not set up the projector near high voltage wires or power sources.
Setting the projector up near high voltage wires or power sources may cause interference with the operation of the
projector.
• Please do not set up the projector on top of a tablecloth or carpet.
This may interfere with circulation to the air filter and cause the internal temperature of the projector to rise, which will
cause the protection circuit to operate and cut off the power.
• If you intend to mount the projector on the ceiling or a wall, please discuss this
with the dealer from which you purchased the projector.
Cautions During Use
To display the highest quality in images;
Do not shine external light or illumination on the screen surface. This will prevent you from seeing high contrast and high
quality images. Cover windows with curtains and blinds, and turn off fluorescent lamps near the screen surface. Moreover,
flooring or wails that reflect lights should be covered by carpets or wallpaper.
Do not touch the projection lens or the reflecting surface on the mirror section
with your bare hands.
Fingerprints or dust on the projection lens surface will be magnified and projected on the screen. Therefore please do not
touch the lens or mirror surface with your hand. If the projector is not being used, the lens should be covered with the lens
cap, and the mirror unit section should be folded and stored.
*The lens cap cannot be put on with the mirror unit attached.
• Do not hang on objects or a step-ladders on it.
The unit may drop which may lead to injuries.

interference that can distort images and sound.
■Cautions for Use
Do not Short Circuit the Interval Between
Opposing Poles of the Batteries (Interval
Between (-1-) Pole and (-) Pole).
This can cause the batteries to become unusable.
Leave space around the Projector
• Air circulation will reduce the amount of dust adhering
to wails and other surfaces.
• Use the designated units when mounting on a wall or
the ceiling.
If Battery Leakage Occurs (for the Remote
