IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
Save Original Packing Materials
The original shipping carton and packing materials will come in handy if you ever have to ship your projector.
For maximum protection, repack the set as it was originally packed at the factory.
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 crucial internal parts. To prevent the
unit from possible damage, do not use the unit for at least 2 hours when there is an extreme or sudden change
in temperature
.
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 the product vertically in any upright position or slantwise in an angle of 20 degrees or more.
• 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 in the instrument. If you continue to use it in that situation, the malfunction may result.
Ensure to wait until the condensation naturally disappears.
• In a high altitude location where air is thin, cooling efficiency is reduced so use it with the ambient temperature
being lowered.
E-VIII
IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS (Continued)
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. They will leave marks on the finish.
If cleaning with a chemically saturated cloth, be sure to follow the product's precautions.
In the spaces provided below, record the Model and Serial No. located at the bottom of your projector.

About DLP projectors
Though careful attention is paid to providing optimum quality, note that with DLP type projectors, in rare cases there may be black
spots or bright spots among the picture elements.
Note:
* Purchase a screen.
* A component cable, which is available separately, is required to connect a DVD player or other equipment with YCbCr connectors.
* A component cable, which is available separately, is required to connect high definition (HD) video equipment or other equipment with
YPbPr connectors.
