4. Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall,
causing serious damage to the product.
5. Unplug the unit from the wall socket if it is not to be used for several days. To
disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
6. The wall socket should be near the unit and easily accessible.
7. Do not place the projector where the cord can be stepped on as this may result in
fraying or damage to the lead or the plug. Be alert to tripping hazards.
8. Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is switched on as the bright light
can damage your eyes. Never let children look into the lens when it is on.
9. Do not place your hand or objects near the ventilation holes. The air coming out is hot.
