electric shocks could result.
BCheck that no more smoke is coming out, and then contact an Authorized
Service Center for repairs.
Bo not attempt to repair the projector yourself, as this can be dangerous.
Do not install this projector in a place which is not strong enough to
take the full weight of the projector.
BIf the installation location is not strong enough, it may fall down or tip over,
and severe injury or damage could result.
Installation work (such as ceiling suspension) should only be carried
out by a qualified technician.
BIf installation is not carried out correctly, there is the danger that injury or
electric shocks may occur.
If foreign objects or water get inside the projector, or if the projector is
dropped or the cabinet is broken, disconnect the power cord plug from
the wall outlet.
BContinued use of the projector in this condition may result in fire or electric
shocks.
BContact an Authorized Service Center for repairs.
Do not overload the wall outlet.
BIf the power supply is overloaded (for example, by using too many
adapters), overheating may occur and fire may result.
Do not remove the cover or modify it in any way.
BHigh voltages can cause fire or electric shocks.
BFor any inspection, adjustment and repair work, please contact an
Authorized Service Center.
Clean the power cord plug regularly to prevent it from becoming
covered in dust.
BIf dust builds up on the power cord plug, the resulting humidity can
damage the insulation, which could result in fire. Pull the power cord plug
out from the wall outlet and wipe it with a dry cloth.
BIf not using the projector for an extended period of time, pull the power
cord plug out from the wall outlet.
6-ENGLISH

any hot objects, bend it excessively, twist it, pull it, place heavy objects on
top of it or wrap it into a bundle.
BIf the power cord lead is used while damaged, electric shocks, short-
circuits or fire may result.
BAsk an Authorized Service Center to carry out any repairs to the power
cord that might be necessary.
Do not handle the power cord plug with wet hands.
BFailure to observe this may result in electric shocks.
Insert the power cord plug securely into the wall outlet.
