1. For best results, use your projector in a darkened room.
2. Place the projector on a flat, level surface in a dry area away from
dust and moisture.
3. Do not place your projector in direct sunlight, near heaters or heat
radiating appliances.
4. Exposure to direct sunlight, smoke or steam can harm internal com-
ponents.
5. Handle your projector carefully. Dropping or jarring can damage in-
ternal components.
6. Do not place heavy objects on top of the projector.
7. If you wish to have the projector installed on the ceiling:
a. Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
b. The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order
to ensure proper operation and reduce the risk of bodily injury.

projector and the installation must be in accordance with any
local building codes.
d. Please consult your dealer for more information.
Important Information
CAUTION
•Avoid displaying stationary images for a prolonged pe-
riod of time.
Doing so can result in these images being temporarily
sustained on the surface of the LCD panel.
If this should happen, continue to use your projector. The
static background from previous images will disappear.
•Do not put the projector on its side when the lamp is
turned on.
Doing so may cause damage to the projector.

E-3
Fire and Shock Precautions
1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unob-
structed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your projector. Allow
at least 3 inches (10 cm) of space between your projector and a
wall.
2. Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from
falling into your projector.
Do not attempt to retrieve any objects that might fall into your pro-
jector. Do not insert any metal objects such as a wire or screwdriver
into your projector. If something should fall into your projector, dis-
connect it immediately and have the object removed by a qualified
NEC service personnel.
3. Do not place any liquids on top of your projector.
4. Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage
to your eyes could result.
5. Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the
projector. The light being projected from the lens is extensive, there-
fore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out
of the lens, can cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury
to the eyes.
6. Do not cover the lens with the supplied lens cap or equivalent while
the projector is on. Doing so can lead to melting of the cap and
possibly burning your hands due to the heat emitted from the light
output.
7. The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-120
or 200-240 V 50/60 Hz AC. Ensure that your power supply fits this
requirement before attempting to use your projector.
8. Handle the power cable carefully and avoid excessive bending.
A damaged cord can cause electric shock or fire.
9. If the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time,
disconnect the plug from the power outlet.
10. Do not touch the power plug during a thunderstorm. Doing so can
cause electrical shock or fire.
CAUTION
1. Do not try to touch the ventilation outlet on the front as it can be-
come heated while the projector is turned on.
2. Do no use the tilt-foot for purposes other than originally intended.
Misuses such as gripping the tilt-foot or hanging on the wall can
cause damage to the projector.
3. When carrying the projector by the carrying handle, make sure the
two screws that attach the carrying handle to the projector cabinet
are tight.
Insufficient tightening of the two screws could result in the projector
falling and causing injury.
4. Enable High-Speed Fan mode if you continue to use the projector
for consecutive days. (From the menu, select [Advanced] →[High
Speed Fan Mode].)
5. Do not unplug the power cable from the wall outlet under any one of
the following circumstances.
Doing so can cause damage to the projector:
*While the Hour Glass icon appears.
*While the cooling fans are running. (The cooling fans continue
to work for 60 seconds after the projector is turned off).
Lamp Replacement
•To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page E-30.
•Be sure to replace the lamp when the message "The lamp has
reached the end of its usable life. Please replace the lamp."
appears. If you continue to use the lamp after the lamp has reached
the end of its usable life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of
glass may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the
pieces of glass may cause injury.
If this happens, contact your NEC dealer for lamp replacement.
•Allow a minimum of 60 seconds to elapse after turning off the pro-
jector. Then turn off the main power switch, disconnect the power
cable and allow 60 minutes to cool the projector before replacing
the lamp.

Reflecting the Image
Using a mirror to reflect your projector's image enables you to enjoy a
much larger image. Contact your NEC dealer if you need a mirror. If
you're using a mirror and your image is inverted, use the MENU and
SELECT buttons on your projector cabinet or your remote control to
correct the orientation. (See page E-27.)
WARNING
*Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done by a quali-
fied technician. Contact your NEC dealer for more information.
*Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
•Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If the projector falls
to the ground, you can be injured and the projector severely dam-
aged.
•Do not use the projector where temperatures vary greatly. The pro-
jector must be used at temperatures between 32˚F (0˚C) and 95˚F
(35˚C).
•Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or smoke. This will
harm the screen image.
•Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your projector so
heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents on the side or the front of
the projector.
