Safety Instructions

Air Circulation

Openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered.
CAUTION
Hot air is exhausted from the exhaust vent. When using or installing the projector, the following precautions should be taken.
– Do not put any flammable object or spray can near
the projector, hot air is exhausted from the air vents.
– Keep the exhaust vent at least 3’ (1 m) away from
any objects.
– Do not touch peripheral parts of the exhaust vent,
especially screws and metallic parts. These areas will become hot while the projector is being used.
– Do not put anything on the cabinet. Objects put on
the cabinet will not only get damaged but also may
cause fire hazard by heat. – Do not cover vents with papers or other materials. – Make sure that there are no objects under the
projector. An object under the projector may prevent the projector from taking cooling air through bottom vent.
Cooling fans are provided to cool down the projector. The fans’ running speed is changed according to the temperature inside the projector.
IMPORTANT!
Filter Maintenance!!
The projector uses a lamp which generates significant heat. The cooling fans and air vents are provided to dissipate the heat by drawing air into the housing and the filter is located in the intake vents to prevent dust from getting inside of the projector.
In order to care for the projector appropriately, regular cleaning is required. Remove any dirt or dust that has accumulated on the projector.
If the projector reaches a time set in the timer setting, a Filter replacement icon (Fig. 1) appears on the screen and WARNING FILTER indicator on the top panel lights up (see below), indicating that the filter replacement is necessary.
If the projector detects that the filter is clogged and no scroll is left in the filter cartridge, a Filter cartridge replacement icon (Fig. 2) appears on the screen and WARNING FILTER indicator on the top panel lights up (see below). Stop using the projector immediately and replace the filter cartridge.
Blocking the air vents and leaving the projector uncleaned for a long time may not only damage the projector and may require costly repairs but may also cause accidents or fire.
For maintenance of the filter, refer to “Filter counter” on page 56 and “Maintenance and Care” on pages 57–59.

Connecting the AC Power Cord

This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100-120 or 200–240 V AC. It is designed to work with single-phase power systems having a grounded neutral conductor. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not plug into any other type of power system. If you are not sure of the type of power being supplied, consult your authorized dealer or service station. Connect the projector with all peripheral equipment before turning on the projector.
CAUTION
The AC outlet must be near this equipment and must be easily accessible.
Note:
Unplug the AC power cord when the projector is not in use.
When the projector is connected to an outlet with AC power cord, it is in stand-by mode and consumes a little electric power.
Connect the AC power cord (supplied) to the projector.
NOTE ON THE POWER CORD
AC power cord must meet the requirements of the country where you use the projector. Confirm the AC plug type with the chart below and proper AC power cord must be used. If the supplied AC power cord does not match your AC outlet, contact your sales dealer.
