Important information
Before you install and use your SMART Board® M600i6 interactive whiteboard system, read and
understand the safety warnings and precautions in this user’s guide and the important information
document included. These safety warnings and precautions describe the safe and correct
operation of your interactive whiteboard system and its accessories, helping you to prevent
injuries and equipment damage. Ensure that your interactive whiteboard system is always being
used correctly.
In this document, “interactive whiteboard system” refers to the following:
lSMARTBoard M600 series interactive whiteboard
lSMARTUF70 or SMARTUF70w projector
lAccessories and optional equipment
The projector included with your system is designed to work only with certain SMARTBoard
interactive whiteboard models. Contact your authorised SMART reseller (smarttech.com/where)
for more information.
Safety warnings, cautions and important
information
Installation
WARNING
lFailure to follow the installation instructions included with your SMART product could
result in personal injury and damage to the product.
lTo reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the SMART product to rain or
moisture.
lTwo people are required to mount your SMART product because it may be too heavy for
one person to safely manoeuvre.
When you lift your interactive whiteboard, you and your assistant should stand on either
side of the screen, supporting its weight at the bottom whilst balancing the top with your
other hands.

I M P O R T A N T I N F O R M A T I O N
ii
lWhen mounting the projector boom on a framed or hollow wall, attach the mounting
bracket to a stud to safely support the projector’s weight. If you use only drywall anchors,
the drywall can fail, resulting in possible personal injury, and damage to the product which
may not be covered by your warranty.
lDo not leave cables on the floor where they can be a tripping hazard. If you must run a
cable over the floor, lay it in a flat, straight line and secure it to the floor with tape or a cable
management strip of a contrasting colour. Handle cables carefully and avoid excessive
bending.
C A U T I O N
lDo not operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a warm
location. When the unit is exposed to such a change in temperature, moisture can
condense on the lens and crucial internal parts. Allow the system to stabilise to room
temperature before operation to prevent possible damage to the unit.
lDo not place the unit in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could
cause a malfunction and shorten the life of the projector.
lAvoid setting up and using the SMART product in an area with excessive levels of dust,
humidity and smoke.
lDo not place your SMART product in direct sunlight or near any appliance that generates a
strong magnetic field.
lYou must connect the USB cable that came with your SMARTBoard interactive
whiteboard to a computer that has a USB compliant interface and that bears the USB
logo. In addition, the USB source computer must be compliant with CSA/UL/EN 60950
and bear the CE mark and CSA and/or UL Mark(s) for CSA/UL 60950. This is for operating
safety and to avoid damage to the SMARTBoard interactive whiteboard.
I M P O R T A N T
lMake sure an electrical socket is near your SMART product and remains easily
accessible during use.
lUsing your SMART product near a TV or radio could cause interference to the images or
sound. If this happens, move the TV or radio away from the projector.
Operation
WARNING
lIf you are using an external audio system, use only the power supply included with that
product. Using the wrong power supply might create a safety hazard or damage the
equipment. If in doubt, refer to the specification sheet for your product to verify the power

I M P O R T A N T I N F O R M A T I O N
iii
supply type.
lDo not climb (or allow children to climb) on a wall- or stand-mounted SMARTBoard
interactive whiteboard.
Do not climb on, hang from or suspend objects from the projector boom.
Climbing on the interactive whiteboard or projector boom could result in personal
injury or product damage.
C A U T I O N
lDo not block the projector’s ventilation slots and openings.
I M P O R T A N T
lKeep your remote control in a safe place because there is no other way to access menu
options.
lDisconnect the product from its power source when it’s not used for a long period.
Other precautions
If you own a SMARTproduct other than a SMARTBoard M680i6 and M685i6 series interactive
whiteboard system, refer to the installation manual for your product for relevant warnings and
maintenance instructions.

About your interactive whiteboard system

SMARTBoardM600i6 interactive whiteboard
system features
Your SMARTBoardM600i6 interactive whiteboard
system uses the short-throw, high-offset
SMARTUF70 or SMARTUF70w projector. The
throw distance of the SMARTUF70 and
SMARTUF70w projectors is half that of the
SMARTUF65 projector, resulting in a shorter
boom and reduced shadows on the projected
image.
When the projector displays an image from your
computer on the touch-sensitive interactive
whiteboard, you can do everything that you can do
at your computer—open and close applications,
scroll through files, conference with others, create
new documents or edit existing ones, visit
websites, play video clips and more—by touching
the screen. You can use an array of gestures within applications.
This projector also supports video and audio connections from a variety of devices, including
DVD/Blu-ray™ players, VCRs, document cameras and digital cameras, and can project media
from these sources onto the interactive screen.
When you use SMART software with your SMARTBoardM600i6 interactive whiteboard system,
you can write or draw over the projected computer image in digital ink using a pen tray pen or your
finger, and then save these notes to a .notebook file or directly into any Ink Aware application.
SMARTBoard M600 series interactive whiteboard
Your SMARTBoard M600 series interactive whiteboard, featuring SMART’s proprietary DViT®
(DigitalVisionTouch) technology, is the most intuitive touch-sensitive front projection interactive
whiteboard in the world.
The SMARTBoard M600 series interactive whiteboard performs best with the SMARTUF70
projector because of its exceptional colour performance, aspect ratio, input response and short-
throw image distance.
