2 Safety and compliance
2.1 General safety considerations
•
Use only the cables and cords supplied with the projector or original replacement
cables. Using other cables or cords may lead to malfunction and permanent damage to
the unit.
•
Always use 3-prong (grounded) power cord to ensure proper grounding of the unit.
Never use 2-prong power cords, as this is dangerous and could lead to electrical shock.
•
Never open the unit. The projector contains no user serviceable parts. Refer all repairs to
qualified personnel only. Make sure that no objects enter into the vents and openings of
the set.
•
Do not spill any liquids on the projector or into the vents or openings of the unit.
•
Always remove lens cap before switching on the projector. If the lens cap is not re-
moved, it may melt due to the high energy light emitted through the lens. Melting the
lens cap may permanently damage the surface of the projection lens.
•
Do not look into the projection lens when the projector is switched on. The strong light
may permanently damage sight.
•
Only place the projector on a stable surface, or mount it securely using an approved
ceiling-mount.
•
Do not drop the projector.
•
Always operate the projector according to the rotation guidelines. Operating the unit in
other positions may reduce lamp life significantly, and may lead to overheating, resulting
in malfunctioning.
•
Always allow ample airflow through the projector. Never block any of the air vents. Never
cover the unit in any way while running. Allow for sufficient distance to walls and ceilings
to avoid overheating.
•
Minimum safety distance to any side of the unit is 50cm / 20” in any direction (15 cm/ 6”
to ceiling).
•
Hot air is exhausted from the rear vent. Do not place objects that are sensitive to heat
nearer than 50cm / 20” to the exhaust vent.
•
The projector is designed for indoor use only. Never operate the unit outdoors.
•
Do not operate the projector outside its temperature and humidity specifications, as this
may result in overheating and malfunctioning.
•
Only connect the projector to signal sources and voltages as described in the technical
specification. Connecting to unspecified signal sources or voltages may lead to malfunc-
tion and permanent damage of the unit.
•
In order to prevent damage to the projector caused by over-voltages (e.g. lightning), we
recommend connection to a line (mains) circuit which has over voltage protection.
•
Allow lamp to cool down for at least 60 minutes before changing.
USE ONLY ORIGINAL LAMPS.
•
Connecting sources to a powered projector may result in product failure. It is recom-
mended that the power cable connector (projector-end) or the mains power socket is
accessible whilst the product is in use to enable mains power to be disconnected or
switched off when connecting source devices. This should be considered during product
installation.
