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
.
Before Using
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.

Dry-cell batteries
• Before using the batteries, be sure to observe the Safety Precautions described in
previous pages.
• Remove batteries from remote control when not using for extended periods.
• If the remote control stops working, or if its range decreases, replace all the batteries with
new ones.
The remote control
• The remote control may fail to operate if the infrared remote sensor is exposed to bright
sunlight or fluorescent lighting.
• Do not drop or bang.
• Do not leave in hot or humid locations.
• Do not get wet or place on top of wet objects.
• Do not take apart.
• In rare cases, ambient conditions could impede the operation of the remote control. If this
happens, point the remote control at the main unit again, and repeat the operation.
Placement Styles
As shown in the figures below, this device can be placed in 4 different styles.
The factory setting is “floor-mounted front projection.” Set the Projection mode in the
p.32

Floor-mounted front projection
, in accordance with your needs.
Floor-mounted rear projection
Ceiling-mounted front projection Ceiling-mounted rear projection
WARNING
• Always obey the instructions listed in IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS when placing the unit.
Attempting to clean/replace the lamp at a high site by yourself may cause you to drop down, thus
resulting in injury.
• If you wish to mount the projector on the ceiling, be sure to ask your dealer to do so. Mounting the
projector on a ceiling requires special ceiling brackets (sold separately) and specialized knowledge.
Improper mounting could cause the projector to fall, resulting in an accident.
• If the projector is ceiling-mounted, install the breaker for turning off the power in case of anomaly. Let
everyone involved with the use of the projector know that fact.
Projection Distance and Size
Use the figures, tables, and formulas below to determine the projection size and projection distance.
(Projection sizes are approximate values for full-size picture with no keystone adjustment.)

H
a is the distance (m) between the lens and the

the power cord or turn off the main power switch if you will not be using the projector for
an extended period.
PRECAUTION
• If the power cord is unplugged before cooling is complete, give the lamp time (about 5
