might look the same, they have not been safety-tested with the 610 or 620. Never
use the power cord if it’s damaged or frayed. When you disconnect the projector,
always remove the power cord from the electrical outlet first, then from the pro-
jector.
Don’t Defeat The Purpose Of The Grounding Plug
The projector is grounded through the grounding conductor on the power cord.
To avoid electric shock, plug the power cord into a properly wired receptacle.
Avoid Liquid Spills
Don’t set drinks on top of the projector. Spilled liquids can flow insidecausing
damage.
Don’t Block Ventilation
Openings in the case provide ventilation to protect the projector from overheat-
ing. Keep loose papers and other objects away from the bottom, top and side
grills. Don’t place the projector on top of or close to a computer or other heat-pro-
ducing equipment.
