work by a qualified technician to restore the projector
to normal operation.
e.If the projector has been dropped or the cabinet has
been damaged.
f.
When the projector exhibits a distinct change in
performance-this indicates a need for service.
When replacement parts are required, be sure the
service technician has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer that have the same
characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or injury
to persons.
Upon completion of any service or repairs to this
projector, ask the service technician to perform routine
safety checks to determine that the projector is in safe
operating condition.
This projector should not be placed in a builtin installation such as a book case unless proper

Installation
Connecting the AC Power Cord
This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100-120 V
or 200-240 V AC and it automatically selects the correct
input voltage. 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 the projector on. (See pages 15-17 for
connection.)
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 this projector is connected to an outlet with
the 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 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 supplied AC power cord does not match your AC outlet, contact your sales dealer.
