Warning and Cautions on Installation
An optional ceiling mount is required when suspending the projector from
a ceiling.
s"Optional Accessories" p.171
Warning
•Do not use or install the projector where it may be subject to water or rain,
or high humidity, such as outdoors, in a bathroom, or shower room, and so
on. Otherwise, it could cause a fire or electric shock.
•A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector
from a ceiling (ceiling mount). If installation work is not carried out
correctly, the projector could fall down. This may result in injury or
accidents. Contact your local dealer or the nearest address provided in the
Epson Projector Contact List.
sEpson Projector Contact List
•If you use adhesives on the ceiling mount fixing points to prevent the screws
from loosening, or if you use things such as lubricants or oils on the
projector, the projector case may crack causing it to fall from its ceiling
mount. This could cause an accident or injury to anyone under the ceiling
mount.
When installing or adjusting the ceiling mount, do not use adhesives to
prevent the screws from loosening and do not use oils or lubricants and so
on.
•Do not cover the projector's air intake vent or air exhaust vent. If either of
the vents are covered, the internal temperature could rise and cause a fire.
•Do not place flammable objects in front of the lens. If you set the schedule to
turn on the projector automatically, any flammable objects placed in front of
the lens could cause a fire.
•Do not tie the power cord and other connection cables together. Otherwise, it
could cause a fire.
•Only use the specified power-supply voltage. Otherwise, it could cause a fire
or electric shock.
Safety Warning and Cautions
3

Warning
•Be careful when handling the power cord. Otherwise, it could cause a fire or
electric shock. Note the following when handling the power cord.
- Do not plug multiple power cords in a single electric outlet.
- Do not plug in the power cord if there are any foreign substances, such
as dust, stuck to it.
- Make sure you insert the power cord all the way in.
- Do not plug in or unplug the power cord with wet hands.
- Do not pull the cord when unplugging the power cord. Make sure you
hold it by the plug.
•Do not use a damaged power cord. Otherwise, it could cause a fire or electric
shock. Note the following when handling the power cord.
- Do not alter the power cord.
- Do not place any heavy objects on the power cord.
- Do not bend, twist, or pull the power cord forcibly.
- Do not layout the power cord near a heating device.
Caution
Do not place the projector on an unstable surface, such as on an unstable table
or tilted surface. When projecting vertically, install the projector appropriately
to prevent the projector from falling.
Otherwise it may cause an injury.
Attention
•Do not install the projector in a location that is subject to vibration or
shock.
•Do not install the projector near a high-voltage line or object that generates
magnetism. Otherwise the projector may not work correctly.
•Do not use or store the projector in a location that is subject to extreme
temperatures. Also, avoid sudden temperature changes.
Make sure you use or store the projector in a place that is within the
following operating or storage temperature ranges.
- Operating temperature range: 0 to +45˚C
*
(No condensation)
- Storage temperature range: -10 to +60˚C (No condensation)
*At an altitude of 0 to 1,499 m, the operating temperature is 0 to
+45˚C when Power Consumption is set to ECO or Temp
Interlock, and 0 to +40˚C when it is set to Normal.
At an altitude of 1,500 to 3,048 m, the operating temperature is
0 to +40˚C when Power Consumption is set to ECO or Temp
Interlock, and 0 to +35˚C when it is set to Normal.
•When using at an altitude of 1,500 m or more, set High Altitude Mode to
On.
sExtended - Operation - High Altitude Mode p.112
Safety Warning and Cautions

Attention
•When projecting with the projector tilted, do not tilt it at more than the
specified angle. This may cause malfunctions or accidents to occur.
Angle of tilt
Vertical: Can be installed at any angle in a complete 360 degrees.
90
45
0
135
180
-135
-90
-45
Horizontal: Can be tilted within the range of expansion and contraction for
the rear feet. The feet can be attached and removed. Note that the feet will
detach if they are extended more than 10 mm.
•Once installation is complete, make sure you set the Direction. Otherwise the
lamp's operating life may be reduced significantly.
s"Setting the direction" p.26
•Using the projector at an improper angle or setting the Configuration menu
incorrectly causes malfunctions and shortens the operating life of optical
parts.
Attention
•Make sure there is a gap as shown in the following illustration between the
wall and the air exhaust vent and the air intake vent.
Air exhaust vent Air intake vent
•When setting up multiple projectors, make sure there is a gap of at least
50 cm between the projectors. Also, make sure that the heat from the air
exhaust vent does not go into the air intake vent.
•Do not place the projector directly on top of another projector.
•Do not project the image putting the projector longitudinally.
Safety Warning and Cautions
5

a
•We recommend setting the focus, zoom, and lens shift at least
30 minutes after you start the projection, because images are not
stable right after turning on the projector.
•When adjusting the image height with the vertical lens shift dial,
adjust by moving the image from the bottom to the top. If it is
adjusted from the top to the bottom, the image position may move
down slightly after adjusting.
Warning and Cautions on Usage
Warning
•Do not cover the projector's air intake vent or air exhaust vent. If either of
the vents is covered, the internal temperature could rise and cause a fire.
•Do not look into the lens while projecting.
•During projection, do not block the light from the projector with the lens
cover (removable) or a book and so on.
If the light from the projector is blocked, the area on which the light shines
becomes hot which could cause it to melt, burn, or start a fire. Also, the lens
may get hot due to the reflected light which could cause the projector to
malfunction. To stop projection, use the A/V Mute function, or turn off the
projector.
•A mercury lamp with high internal pressure is used as the projector's light
source. If the lamp is subjected to vibrations, shocks, or if it is used for an
overly extended length of time, the lamp may break or it may not turn on. If
the lamp explodes, gases may escape and small fragments of glass may be
scattered which could cause an injury. Be sure to observe the instructions
below.
- Do not disassemble or damage the lamp or subject it to any impacts.
- Do not bring your face close to the projector while it is in use.
- Particular care should be taken when the projector is installed to a
ceiling, as small pieces of glass may fall down when the lamp cover is
removed.
When cleaning the projector or replacing the lamp yourself, be very
careful not to allow such pieces of glass to get into the eyes or mouth.
If the lamp breaks, ventilate the area immediately, and contact a doctor if any
fragments of broken glass are inhaled or get into the eyes or mouth. In
addition, consult your local regulations regarding proper disposal and do not
place in the trash.
Safety Warning and Cautions
6

Caution
Do not place objects that may become warped or otherwise affected by heat
near the air exhaust vent and do not put your face or hands near the vent
while projection is in progress.
Attention
•Do not repeatedly turn off the power and immediately back on. Turning the
power on and off frequently may shorten the lamp's operating life.
•Only remove the lens unit when necessary. If dust or dirt enter the projector,
projection quality deteriorates and it could cause a malfunction.
•Try not to touch the lens section with your hand or fingers. If fingerprints or
oils are left on the surface of the lens, projection quality deteriorates.
•Store the projector with the lens unit installed.
If the projector is stored without the lens unit, dust and dirt may get inside
the projector and cause malfunctions or lower the quality of projection.
•When storing, make sure you remove the batteries from the remote control.
If the batteries are left in the remote control for an extended period of time,
they may leak.
Notes on Transporting
There are many glass parts and precision components inside the projector.
To prevent damage due to impacts when transporting, handle the projector
as follows.
Caution
Do not carry the projector by one person. Two people are needed to unpack or
carry the projector.
Attention
•Moving Nearby
- Turn off the power to the projector and disconnect all cables.
- Attach the cover to the lens.
•When Transporting
After checking the points in "Moving Nearby", prepare the following and then
pack up the projector.
- Remove the lens unit if an option lens, other than the standard zoom
lens, is installed. Attach the standard zoom lens if the projector has a
built-in lens. If the projector does not have a lens, attach the cover that
was on the lens mount when you purchased the projector.
- The vertical and horizontal lens shifts are positioned in the center.
- Enclose the projector securely in packaging material to protect it from
shock, and place it into a strong cardboard container. Be sure to notify
the carrier company that it is precision equipment.
