Always allow ample airflow through the projector. Never block any of the air vents. Never cover
the unit in any way while running. Allow for sufficient distance to walls and ceilings to avoid
overheating. Minimum safety distance to any side of the unit is 50 cm / 20” in any direction.
CAUTION! Hot air is exhausted from the rear vent. Do not place objects that are sensitive to
heat nearer than 50cm / 20” to the exhaust vent.
NOTE: The projector is designed for indoor use only. Never operate the unit outdoors.
Do not operate the projector outside its temperature and humidity specifications, as this may
result in overheating and malfunctioning.
Only connect the projector to signal sources and voltages as described in the technical
specification. Connecting to unspecified signal sources or voltages may lead to malfunction and
permanent damage of the unit.
Allow the unit to cool down for 60 minutes before lamp change.

This projector uses a very powerful UHP™ lamp for illumination to produce an extremely bright
image.
This technology is similar to other high-pressure discharge lamps that are extensively used in
cars, street lights and other lighting appliances today. These lamps, like fluorescent lighting,
contain small amounts of mercury. The amount of mercury present in a lamp is far below the
limits of danger set by the authorities.
It is very important that lamps containing mercury are treated properly to minimize potential
health hazards.
The UHP™ lamp, like any other high brightness projector lamp, is under high-pressure when
operating. While the lamp and the projector are carefully designed to minimize the probability of
lamp rupture, the lamp may break while operating and small amounts of mercury vapor may be
emitted from the projector. The probability of rupture increases when the lamp reaches its
nominal life. It is therefore highly recommended that the lamp is replaced when the rated lifetime
is reached.
As a general precaution, secure good ventilation in the room when operating the projector. If
lamp rupture occurs, evacuate the room and secure good ventilation. Children and pregnant
women in particular should leave the room.
When replacing a worn lamp, dispose of the used lamp carefully by proper recycling.
Mercury is a naturally occurring, stable metallic element that may pose a safety risk to people
under certain conditions. According to the Public Health Statement for Mercury published by the
Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (“ATSDR”, part of the United States Public
Health Service), the brain, central nervous system and kidneys are sensitive to the effects of
mercury, and permanent damage can occur at sufficiently high levels of exposure. Acute
exposure to high concentrations of mercury vapor can cause conditions such as lung and
