IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
Save Original Packing Materials
The original shipping carton and packing materials will come in handy if you ever have to ship your
projector. For maximum protection, repack the set as it was originally packed at the factory.
Moisture Condensation
Never 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 may condense on the crucial internal
parts. To prevent the unit from possible damage, do not use the unit for at least 2 hours when there is
an extreme or sudden change in temperature
.
Place and Manner of Installation
•Do not place in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could cause malfunction,
and shorten the life of the projector.
•Avoid locations with oil or cigarette smoke. Doing so will dirty the optical parts, shortening their
lives, and darkening the screen.
• Do not use the product vertically in any upright position or slantwise in an angle of 20 degrees or
more.
•Using this instrument near a TV or radio may cause interference to the images or audio sound. If this
happens, move it away from the TV or radio.
•Moving the projector from a low-temperature room to a high-temperature room may cause
condensation on the lens or internal parts in the instrument. If you continue to use it in that situation,
the malfunction may result. Ensure to wait until the condensation naturally disappears.
•In a high altitude location where air is thin, cooling efficiency is reduced so use it with the ambient
temperature being lowered.

projector on a ceiling requires special ceiling brackets (sold separately) and specialized knowledge.
Improper mounting could cause the projector to fall, resulting in an accident.
•If the projector is ceiling-mounted, install the breaker for turning off the power in case of anomaly. Let
everyone involved with the use of the projector know that fact.
