For details concerning safety precautions, see the supplied leaflet "IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS."

Note on cleaning

Clean the cabinet of the projection TV with a dry soft cloth. To remove dust from the screen, wipe it gently with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth slightly dampened with solution of mild soap and warm water. Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzine for cleaning.
If the picture becomes dark after using the projection TV for a long period of time, it may be necessary to clean the inside of the projection TV. Consult qualified service personnel.

Installing

• To prevent internal heat buildup, do not block the ventilation openings.
• Do not install the projection TV in a hot or humid place, or in a place subject to excessive dust or mechanical vibration.
• If fhe projection TV is transported directly from a cold to a warm location, or if the room temperature has changed suddenly, the picture may be blurred or show poor color. In this case, let the moisture evaporate before using the projection TV.
• To obtain the best picture, do not expose the screen to direct illumination or direct sunlight. It is recommended to use spot lighting directed down from the ceiling or to cover the windows that face the screen with opaque drapery. It is desirable to install the projection TV in a room where the floor and walls are not of reflecting material.
