Use a 5 A fuse which is approved by ASTA or BSI to BSI362. Always replace the fuse cover after changing the fuse.

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 cr

ucial 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 malfunction, 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 upr

ight 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 [Fan mode] set to [High].

p.41

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.

•

Before Using

IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS (Continued) LCD Panel

If the air ﬁlter is stained or clogged, the main unit inner temperature rises. As a result, the life of the LCD is shortened and a malfunction may also occur. Clean the air ﬁlter from time to time and replace it regularly. It is recommended that you replace the ﬁlter at the time you replace the lamp. (Ask a dealer where the unit was purchased or your nearby service station about an air ﬁlter for replacement.)

REMOTE CONTROL BATTERIES

Warning

Never throw batteries into a ﬁre.

Using the batteries improperly may cause them to explode or leak and may result in serious injury. If battery-leaking ﬂuid contacts skin, wash the ﬂuid off immediately with clean water and consult a doctor. If the ﬂuid spills on an instrument, avoid contact and wipe it off using tissue paper. Then dispose of the used tissue paper as ﬂammable garbage after moistening the tissue with water.

Notes

Be sure to use AAA (LR03) size batteries. Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area. Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of battery disposal. Do not mix different battery types or combine used batteries with new ones. If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the operating range becomes reduced, replace both batteries with new ones. If the batteries are dead or if you will not be using the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.

Following information is only for EU-member states:

[Disposal of batteries and/or accumulators] The crossed out wheeled dust bin symbol indicates that batteries and/or

accumulators must be collected and disposed of separately from household waste. If the battery or accumulator contains more than the speciﬁed values of lead

(Pb), mercury (Hg), and/or cadmium (Cd) deﬁned in the Battery Directive (

2006/66/EC), then the chemical symbols for lead (Pb), mercury (Hg) and/or

cadmium (Cd) will appear below the crossed out wheeled dust bin symbol. By participating in separate collection of batteries, you will help to assure

the proper disposal of products and batteries and thus help to prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health.

For more detailed information about the collection and recycling programmes available in your country, please contact your local city ofﬁce or the shop where you purchased the product.

Operating the projector from the front

Approx.15°

Approx.5m

Note:

When operating the remote control from behind the projector, the infrared signal is reﬂected on the projecting surface. The operating range therefore may decrease depending on the shape and material of the projecting surface.

•

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 ne

w ones. (2 batteries (LR03 SIZE AAA)) Keep the batteries away from the reach of children. Batteries are choking hazards and can be very dangerous if swallowed. If the batteries are swallowed, seek medical assistance immediately.

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 allow it to get wet or place it on top of wet objects. Do not take it 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.

WARNING

Always obey the instructions listed in IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS when placing the unit. Attempting to clean and replace the lamp in a high location

by yourself may cause you to fall, 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 possible injury and unit damage.

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.)
