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 a
•
malfuntion, and shorten the life of the projector.
Avoid locations with oil or cigarette smoke. These environments 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.
In a high altitude location where air is thin, cooling efficiency is reduced so use the
•
projector with [Fan mode] set to [High].
Only plug the power cord into outlets rated for use within 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 serious injury and/or damage to the product.
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 on the unit.
