IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

Moisture Condensation

Never operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a warm location. When the unit is exposed to such a change in temperature, moisture may condense on the lens and the crucial internal parts. Do not use the unit for at least 2 hours when there is an extreme or sudden change in temperature to prevent the unit from possible damage.

Place and Manner of Installation

Do not place in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could cause malfunction, and shorten the life of the projector.

Avoid locations with oil or cigarette smoke. Doing so will dirty the optical parts, shortening their lives, and darkening the screen.

Do not use this product in the upright position or tilt it up or down by more than 20° from level. Doing so may cause a failure or shorten the life of the product.

Using this instrument near a TV or radio may cause interference to the images or audio sound. If this happens, move it away from the TV or radio.

Moving the projector from a low-temperature room to a high-temperature room may cause condensation on the lens or internal parts. If you continue to use it in that situation it may malfunction. Wait until the condensation naturally disappears.

In a high altitude location where air is thin, cooling efficiency is reduced so use the projector with [High Altitude] set to [On]. p.34

The set of projector is hot after use. Handle with care.

Do not use the projector while holding it in your hands or lap.

Do not use the projector near a power source and the like, or in locations like a ship or vehicle that are subject to vibration or shock. Doing so may lead to a malfunction or shorten service life.

Only plug the power cord into outlets rated for use with the power cord’s specified voltage range. Do not overload extension cords or power strips as this can result in fire or electric shock.

Route the power cable or the connecting cable away from where people could trip over it. The projector may fall, which could result in severe injury.

Be sure the power cord is easily reached for unplugging in case of emergency. Do not place any obstacles near a wall outlet in which the cord is plugged.

Avoid Volatile Liquid

Do not use volatile liquids, such as an insect spray, near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products touching the unit for a long time, as they will leave marks on the finish. Do not use a chemically saturated cloth.
