Important information
Before you install and use your SMART Board™ 480i5 interactive whiteboard system, read and
understand the safety warnings and precautions in this user’s guide and the included warnings
document. 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, “SMART Board 480i5 interactive whiteboard system” refers to your SMART Board
480 interactive whiteboard and its SMART UF75 projector, accessories and optional equipment.
The SMART UF75 projector included with your system is designed to work only with certain SMART
Board interactive whiteboard models. Contact your authorized SMART reseller
(smarttech.com/wheretobuy) for more information.
Safety warnings, cautions and important
information
W W A R N I N G
lFailure to follow the installation instructions shipped 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 maneuver.
When you lift your interactive whiteboard, you and your assistant should stand on either side
of the screen, supporting its weight at the bottom while balancing the top with your other
hands.
lWhen mounting the projector boom on a framed or hollow wall, attach both the mounting
bracket and the safety tether to a stud to safely support the projector’s weight. If you use only
drywall anchors, the drywall can fail, resulting in product damage and possible personal
injury.
i

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 color. Handle cables carefully and avoid excessive
bending.
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 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 stabilize 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.
lDo not block the projector’s ventilation slots and openings.
lAvoid putting the projector into Standby mode during the lamp ignition phase because this
can lead to premature lamp failure. Keep the projector lamp on for a minimum of 15 minutes
before putting it into Standby mode to preserve the lamp life.
lCycling power to the projector repeatedly can lock or damage your SMART product. After
you put the product into Standby mode, wait at least 15 minutes for cooling before starting
the product again.
I M P O R T A N T I N F O R M A T I O N
ii

lDo not adjust any settings in the service menu other than those listed in the following
procedures. Changing other settings might damage or affect the operation of your projector
and invalidates your warranty.
lIf dust or small items prevent pen tray buttons from being pressed or cause constant button
contact, remove the obstructions carefully.
lBefore you clean the SMART UF75 projector, press the Power button twice on the remote
control or projector to put the system into Standby mode, and then allow the lamp to cool for
45 minutes.
lDo not spray cleaners, solvents or compressed air near any part of the projector because
they can damage or stain the unit. Spraying the system could spread a chemical mist on
some of the projector’s components and lamp, resulting in damage and poor image quality.
lDo not allow liquids or commercial solvents of any kind to flow into the projector.
lWhen transporting your SMART product, repack it with as much of the original packaging as
possible. This packaging was designed with optimal shock and vibration protection.
lIf your SMART product requires replacement parts, make sure the service technician uses
replacement parts specified by SMART Technologies or parts with the same characteristics
as the original.
I I M P O R T A N T
lUse the instructions included with your SMART UF75 projector to install your interactive
whiteboard and projector. The instructions in your SMART Board interactive whiteboard box
do not include instructions for installing the SMART UF75 projector.
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.
lIf you have peripheral devices that do not use a 4-pin mini-DIN connector or an RCA
composite video jack, or if your device has an audio connection that does not use RCA
jacks, you may need to purchase third-party adapters.
lKeep your remote control in a safe place because there is no other way to access menu
options.
lPut your SMART product into Standby mode before cleaning it.

lFollow these guidelines to clean the projector:
oWipe the exterior of the projector with a lint-free cloth.
oIf necessary, use a soft cloth moistened with a mild detergent to clean the projector
housing.
oDo not use abrasive cleaners, waxes or solvents.
oAvoid touching the lens. If it is necessary to clean the lens:
oUse liquids or commercial solvents (such as glass cleaners) to clean the lens,
but do not spray them directly on the system.
oUse protective gloves and dip a lint-free cloth (such as Purestat PW2004) in an
anti-static solvent (such as Hyperclean EE-6310).
oGently wipe the lens from the center to the edge.
lDisconnect the product from its power source when it’s not used for a long period.
