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
