1. Safety & Environmental Information
•
Exposure to UV radiation
: Some medications are known to make individuals extra sensitive to UV radiation. The American
Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) recommends occupational UV exposure for an-8 hour day to be
less than 0,1 micro-watts per square centimeters of effective UV radiation. An evaluation of the workplace is advised to assure
employees are not exposed to cumulative radiation levels exceeding these government guidelines.
To prevent
fi
re hazard
•
Do not place
fl
ammable or combustible materials near the projector!
•
Projection rooms must be well ventilated or cooled in order to avoid build up of heat. It is necessary to vent hot exhaust air from
console to the outside of the building.
•
Heat sensitive materials should not be placed in the path of the exhaust air or on the lamp house.
To prevent projector damage
•
The air
fi
lters of the projector must be cleaned or replaced on a regular basis (a "clean" booth would be monthly-minimum).
Neglecting this could result in disrupting the air
fl
ow inside the projector, causing overheating. Overheating may lead to the
projector shutting down during operation.
•
The projector must always be installed in a manner which ensures free
fl
ow of air into its air inlets.
•
In order to ensure that correct air
fl
ow is maintained, and that the projector complies with Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
and safety requirements, it should always be operated with all of it’s covers in place.
•
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from
overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product
on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. The
device should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
•
Ensure that nothing can be spilled on, or dropped inside the projector. If this does happen, switch off and remove all power
from the projector. Do not operate the projector again until it has been checked by quali
fi
ed service personnel.
•
Do not block the projector cooling fans or free air movement around the projector. Loose papers or other objects may not be
nearer to the projector than 10 cm (4") on any side.
•
Do not use this equipment near water.
•
Proper operation of the projector can only be guaranteed in table mounting. It is not permitted to use the projector in another
position. See installation procedure for correct installation. A ceiling mount will be supported in the future.
•
Special care for Laser Beams
: Special care should be used when DLP projectors are used in the same room as high power
laser equipment. Direct or indirect hitting of a laser beam on to the lens can severely damage the Digital Mirror Devices
TM
in
which case there is a loss of warranty.
•
Never place the projector in direct sunlight. Sunlight on the lens can severely damage the Digital Mirror Devices
TM
in which
case there is a loss of warranty.
•
Save the original shipping carton and packing material. They will come in handy if you ever have to ship your equipment. For
maximum protection, repack your set as it was originally packed at the factory.
•
To ensure the highest optical performance and resolution, the projection lenses are specially treated with an anti-re
fl
ective
coating, therefore, avoid touching the lens. To remove dust on the lens, use a soft dry cloth. Do not use a damp cloth, detergent
solution, or thinner.
•
Rated maximum ambient temperature, t
a
= 35°C (95°F).
On servicing
•
Do not attempt to service this product yourself, as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage potentials
and risk of electric shock.
•
Refer all servicing to quali
fi
ed service personnel.
•
Attempts to alter the factory-set internal controls or to change other control settings not specially discussed in this manual can
lead to permanent damage to the projector and cancellation of the warranty.
•
Remove all power from the projector and refer servicing to quali
fi
ed service technicians under the following conditions:
-
When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
-
If liquid has been spilled into the equipment.
-
If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
-
If the product does not operate normally when the operating instructions are followed. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions since improper adjustment of the other controls may result in damage and will often
require extensive work by a quali
fi
ed technician to restore the product to normal operation.
-
If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
-
If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.
•
Replacement parts: When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used original Barco replacement
parts or authorized replacement parts which have the same characteristics as the Barco original part. Unauthorized substitu-
tions may result in degraded performance and reliability,
fi
re, electric shock or other hazards. Unauthorized substitutions may
void warranty.
•
Safety check: Upon completion of any service or repairs to this projector, ask the service technician to perform safety checks
to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.
•
Possible explosion hazard: Always keep in mind the caution below:
