Installation

Using the ferrite core

Before using the AC Power Cord, attach the ferrite core (supplied) as shown in the figure. The Power Cord with ferrite core must be used for RF interference suppression.

Connecting the AC Power Cord

This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100-120 V or 200-240 V AC. This projector 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.

Consult your authorized dealer or service station if you are not sure of the type of power being supplied. 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.
