Follow these safety instructions when setting up and
using the projector:
Do not
look into the lens when the projector is on. The bright light can
damage your eyes. Avoid standing in front of the projector so
you do not block the projected image and the bright
light does not shine into your eyes. Be especially careful if
children are around.Do not look into the lens using a
magnifying glass or telescope.
Do not mount the projector on a ceiling or wall.
Do not install or place the projector vertically. Doing so may
cause a malfunction.
When turning on the projector at a distance using the remote
control, make sure there is no one looking into the lens.
Do not
place the projector on an unstable cart, stand, or table or
on a surface that is unable to support its weight. Otherwise, it
could fall or topple causing an accident and injury.
Route any cords or cables so that they are out of the way;
otherwise people may trip and fall or injure themselves.
Do not
operate the projector on its side, or while tilted to one
side.
When installing the projector in a high position, take measures
to prevent it from falling by using wires to ensure safety in an
emergency, such as an earthquake, and to prevent accidents. If the
projector is not installed correctly, the projector could fall.
This may result in injury or accidents. Contact your dealer to
carry out the installation work.
Do not install in locations where salt damage could occur, or
in locations subject to corrosive gas such as sulphuric gas from
hot springs. Otherwise, corrosion could cause the projector to
fall. It could also cause the projector to malfunction.
Do not install the projector in locations exposed to high
humidity and dust, such as on a kitchen counter, in the kitchen, or
near a humidifier, or in locations exposed to oil smoke or steam.
Doing so could cause fire or electric shock.
Do not use
the projector near water, sources of heat, high-voltage electrical
wires, or sources of magnetic fields.
Do not use the device near any medical equipment or equipment
that is automatically controlled, such as automatic doors or fire
alarms. Electromagnetic interference from the device may cause such
equipment to malfunction and cause an accident.
Use the
type of power source indicated on the projector. Use of a different
power source may result in fire or electric shock. If you are not
sure of the power available, consult your dealer or power
company.
Place the
projector near a wall outlet where the plug can be easily
unplugged.
Take the
following precautions when handling the plug: Do not hold the plug
with wet hands. Do not insert the plug into a dusty outlet. Insert
the plug firmly into the outlet. Do not pull the power cord when
disconnecting the plug; always be sure to hold the plug when
disconnecting it. Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or
power strips. Failure to comply with these precautions could result
in fire or electric shock.
Do not
place the projector where the cord can be walked on. This may
result in fraying or damage to the plug.
Unplug the
projector from the wall outlet and allow to cool before cleaning.
This avoids electric shock during cleaning. Use a dry
cloth (or, for stubborn dirt or stains, a moist cloth that has been
wrung dry) for cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners, any
sprays containing flammable gas, or solvents such as alcohol, paint
thinner, or benzine.
Do not
block the slots and openings in the projector case. They provide
ventilation and prevent the projector from overheating. If
the vents are covered, the internal temperature could rise and
cause a fire. Do not place the projector in locations subject to
high temperatures, such as near heating equipment. Do not
operate the projector on a sofa, rug, or other soft surface, or set
it on top of loose papers. Do not cover the projector with a
blanket, curtain, or tablecloth. If you are setting up the
projector near a wall, leave at least 11.8 inches (30
cm) of space between the wall and the projector. On
the side where hot air is exhausted from the projector, leave at
least 11.8 inches (30 cm) of space between the wall
and the projector.
Do not
operate the projector in a closed-in cabinet unless proper
ventilation is provided.
Do not cover the projector's air intake or air exhaust vents.
If the vents are covered, the internal temperature could rise and
cause a fire.
Never
allow objects of any kind to enter any openings in the projector.
Do not leave objects, especially flammable objects, near the
projector. Never spill liquid of any kind into the projector.
You may
need to clean the air filter and vent. A clogged air filter or vent
can block ventilation needed to cool the projector. Do not use
canned air, or the gases may leave a residue.
Do not use or store the projector in locations where it will be
subject to dust or dirt. Otherwise, the quality of the projected
image may decline, or the air filter may become clogged, resulting
in a malfunction or fire.
Follow the maintenance schedule for this projector. If the
interior of the projector has not been cleaned for a long time,
dust may build up, which could cause the internal temperature of
the projector to rise, resulting in malfunctions, early
deterioration of optical parts, and even fire or electric shock.
Replace your air filter periodically and contact your dealer to
clean the interior of the projector, as needed.
Do not
store the projector outdoors for an extended length of time.
Except as
specifically explained in this manual, do not attempt to service
this product yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel.
Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltages and
other hazards.
Never open
any covers on the projector except as specifically explained in
this manual. Never attempt to disassemble or modify the projector.
Refer all repairs to qualified service personnel.
Unplug the
projector from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified
service personnel under the following conditions: if it does not
operate normally when you follow the operating instructions, or
exhibits a distinct change in performance; if smoke, strange odors,
or strange noises come from the projector; if the power cord or
plug is damaged or frayed; if liquid or foreign objects get inside
the projector, or if it has been exposed to rain or water; if it
has been dropped or the housing has been damaged. Continuing
to use the projector under these conditions may result in fire,
electric shock, or even damage to your eyesight. Do not try to
repair this projector yourself. Place the projector near an easily
accessible outlet so that the plug can be unplugged immediately
when an error occurs.
Do not
touch the plug during an electrical storm. Otherwise, you may
receive an electric shock.
Unplug the
projector when it will not be used for extended periods. The
insulation may deteriorate, which may result in fire.
Do not use
the projector where it may be exposed to rain, water, or excessive
humidity. Fire or electric shock may result.
Do not install the projector in locations where it may be
subject to salt damage or corrosive gas. Doing so may result in
malfunction and the corrosion may cause the projector to fall.
Do not use
or store the projector where it may be exposed to smoke, steam,
corrosive gases, excessive dust, vibration, or shock.
Do not use or store the projector in places where smoke from
oil or cigarettes may be present, as it can adversely affect the
quality of the projected images.
Do not use
the projector where flammable or explosive gases may be
present.
Do not use
or store the projector or remote control in a hot location, such as
near a heater, in direct sunlight, or in a closed vehicle.
If you use
the projector in a country other than where you purchased it, use
the correct power cord for that country.
Do not
stand on the projector or place heavy objects on it. You may
fall over, resulting in injury and damage to the
projector.
If you are using the projector at altitudes above 4,921 feet
(1,500 m), enable the High Altitude
Mode setting in the projector's menu to ensure the
projector's internal temperature is regulated properly.
Do not use
the projector outside of the required temperature range below
(20 to 80% humidity, no condensation):
Doing so may cause an unstable display and could lead to
projector damage. Do not use or store the projector where it may be
exposed to sudden changes in temperature.
Do not
store the projector outside of the required temperature range of 14
to 140 °F (–10 to 60 °C) or in direct sunlight for long periods of
time. Doing so may cause damage to the case.
Store the projector in a dry location.
Do not
place anything that can become warped or damaged by heat near the
exhaust vents. Do not bring your hands or face close to the vents
while projection is in progress. Do not bring your face close to
the projector while it is in use. Hot air from the exhaust
vents could cause burns, warping, or other damage to
property.
Before you
move the projector, make sure its power is turned off, the plug is
disconnected from the outlet, and all cables are disconnected.
Fire or electric shock may result.
Do not
place the source of an open flame, such as a lit candle, on or near
the projector.
During projection, do not block the light from the projector
with a book or other objects. If the light from the projector is
blocked, the area on which the light shines becomes hot which could
cause it to melt, burn, or start a fire. Also, the lens may get hot
due to the reflected light which could cause the projector to
malfunction. To stop projection, use the Blank function, or turn
off the projector.
Do not
modify the power cord. Do not place heavy objects on top of the
power cord or bend, twist, or pull it excessively. Keep the power
cord away from hot electrical appliances. Do not tie the power cord
to other cables.
Incorrect battery usage may cause leakage of battery fluid and
battery rupture, which could result in fire, injury, or corrosion.
When replacing batteries, take the following precautions: insert
batteries so that the polarities (+ and -) are correct; do not use
batteries of different types or mix old and new batteries; do not
use any batteries other than those specified in this manual; if
batteries leak, wipe away battery fluid with a soft cloth and
replace them with new batteries; if battery fluid gets on your
hands, wash them immediately; replace the batteries as soon as they
run out; remove the batteries if you will not be using the
projector for a long period of time; do not expose batteries to
heat or flame and do not put them in water; dispose of used
batteries according to local regulations; keep batteries out of the
reach of children. Batteries are choking hazards and are very
dangerous if swallowed. If a battery is swallowed, seek
medical attention immediately.
Remove the batteries from the remote control before storing the
projector. If the batteries are left in the remote control for long
periods, they may leak.
Do not disassemble the projector when disposing of it. Dispose
of the projector according to your local or national laws and
regulations.
