2 SAFETY
This device complies with safety regulations for Information Technology Equipment intended
to operate in “normal” environments (offices and homes). Before using the device for the first
time, please read the safety instructions thoroughly.
2.1 SAFETY
This user guide contains important information about safety precautions and the set-up and
use of the projector. Please read the manual carefully before you operate the projector.
This device complies with relevant safety regulations for data processing equipment for use
in an office environment. Before using the projector for the first time, please read the safety
instructions thoroughly.
2.2 WARNING
Use only the cables and cords supplied with the projector or original replacement cables. Using other cables or cords may lead to malfunction and permanent damage of the unit.
Always use 3-prong / grounded power cord to ensure proper grounding of the unit. Never
use 2-prong power cords, as this is dangerous and could lead to electrical shock.
Never open the unit. The projector contains no user serviceable parts. Refer all repairs to
qualified personnel only. Make sure that no objects enter into the vents and openings of the
set.
Do not spill any liquids on the projector or into the vents or openings of the unit.
Always remove lens cap before switching on the projector. If the lens cap is not removed,
it may melt due to the high energy light emitted through the lens. Melting the lens cap may
permanently damage the surface of the projection lens.
Do not look into the projection lens when the projector is switched on. The strong light may
permanently damage sight. Do not look into the laser beam when activated on the remote
control. Laser light may permanently damage sight.
Do not point laser beam at people or animals.
Only place the projector on a stable surface, or mount it securely using an approved ceilingmount.
Do not drop the projector.
Always operate the projector according to the rotation guidelines found on the web. Operating the unit in other positions may reduce lamp life significantly, and may lead to overheating,
resulting in malfunctioning.
Always allow ample airflow through the projector. Never block any of the air vents. Never
cover the unit in any way while running. Allow for sufficient distance to walls and ceilings to
avoid overheating.
Minimum safety distance to any side of the unit is 50 cm / 20” in any direction.
CAUTION! Hot air is exhausted from the rear vent. Do not place objects that are sensitive
to heat nearer than 50cm / 20” to the exhaust vent.
The projector is designed for indoor use only. Never operate the unit outdoors.
Do not operate the projector outside its temperature and humidity specifications, as this may
result in overheating and malfunctioning.

CAUTION! Connecting sources to a powered projector may result in product failure. It is
recommended that the power cable connector (projector-end) or the mains power socket
are accessible whilst the product is in use to enable mains power to be disconnected or
switched off when connecting source devices. This should be considered during product
installation.
Only connect the projector to signal sources and voltages as described in the technical
specification. Connecting to unspecified signal sources or voltages may lead to malfunction
and permanent damage of the unit.
Allow lamp to cool down before changing. One lamp may be changed while the other lamp
is operating (hot-swap).
2.2.1 INFORMATION AND WARNING ABOUT POTENTIAL HEALTH ISSUES RELATED TO MERCURY VAPOR (This section only applies to projectors with UHP lamps)
This projector uses a very powerful UHP™ lamp for illumination to produce an extremely
bright image.
This technology is similar to other high-pressure discharge lamps that are extensively used in
cars, street lights and other lighting appliances today. These lamps, like fluorescent lighting,
contain small amounts of mercury. The amount of mercury present in a lamp is far below the
limits of danger set by the authorities. It is very important that lamps containing mercury are
treated properly to minimize potential health hazards.
The UHP™ lamp, like any other high brightness projector lamp, is under high-pressure when
operating. While the lamp and the projector are carefully designed to minimize the probability of lamp rupture, the lamp may break while operating and small amounts of mercury
vapor may be emitted from the projector. The probability of rupture increases when the lamp
reaches its nominal life. It is therefore highly recommended that the lamp is replaced when
the rated lifetime is reached.
As a general precaution, secure good ventilation in the room when operating the projector. If
lamp rupture occurs, evacuate the room and secure good ventilation. Children and pregnant
women in particular should leave the room.
When replacing a worn lamp, dispose of the used lamp carefully by proper recycling.
Mercury is a naturally occurring, stable metallic element that may pose a safety risk to people
under certain conditions. According to the Public Health Statement for Mercury published by
the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (“ATSDR”, part of the United States
Public Health Service), the brain, central nervous system and kidneys are sensitive to the
effects of mercury, and permanent damage can occur at sufficiently high levels of exposure.
Acute exposure to high concentrations of mercury vapor can cause conditions such as
lung and airway irritation, tightness in the chest, a burning sensation in the lungs, coughing,
nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Children and fetuses are particularly sensitive to the harmful
effects of metallic mercury to the nervous system.
Seek medical attention if any of the above symptoms are experienced or if other unusual
conditions are experienced following lamp rupture.

3.2 Indicators
System status indicators are located right of the keypad on the back of the projector. Figure
3-4 shows the three status indicators – one for each lamp and one for the system status.
Figure 3-4. The lamp indicators
For the lamp indicators the following apply:
- PERMANENT GREEN LIGHT: The lamp is on and operating normally.
- PERMANENT YELLOW LIGHT: The lamp is off. The lamp may be disabled in the menu or
the system is in standby.
- PERMANENT RED LIGHT: Lamp life has expired, lamp is not igniting or lamp door is
open. If the lamp life has expired, please change projection lamp immediately. Failing to
change lamp may lead to lamp explosion. Please replace with original projectiondesign
equipment.
- FLASHING YELLOW LIGHT: The lamp is cooling down. The total cooling down time is
approx. 45 seconds.
- NO LIGHT: No lamp inserted.
NOTE! The replacement lamps must be purchased from an authorized projectiondesign
dealer for the warranty of the product to be valid.
3.2.1 The status indicator
- PERMANENT GREEN LIGHT: The projector is turned on and in normal operation.
- PERMANENT YELLOW LIGHT: The projector is in standby mode. If the projector was
powered off by the power saving feature (DPMS), it will automatically power on when you
connect a valid source.
- FLASHING YELLOW LIGHT: Please wait. The yellow light will flash a period after power
cord is connected (20-30 sec.), and a period after going to standby mode while lamp is
cooling down (approximately 45 sec.). The projector may not be turned on again until the
light has turned to permanent yellow.
- FLASHING RED LIGHT: Projector is overheated. Turn off immediately! Check if air inlets
are covered or if ambient temperature is outside specifications. The projector cannot be
restarted until the power cord is disconnected and reconnected again. If the projector
continues to flash red, you will need to return the unit for service.
