1. Safety
To prevent projector damage
• Always remove lens cap before switching on the projector. If the lens cap is not removed, 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.
• The air fi lters of the projector must be cleaned or replaced on a regular basis. Cleaning the booth area 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.
• If more than one projector is installed in a common projection booth, the exhaust air fl ow requirements are valid for EACH
individual projector system. Note that inadequate air extraction or cooling will result in decreased life expectancy of the projector
as a whole as well as causing premature failure of the lasers.
• 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.
• Do not use this equipment near water.
• 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.
• Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for
cleaning. Never use strong solvents, such as thinner or benzine, or abrasive cleaners, since these will damage the cabinet.
Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with mild detergent solution.
• 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. For lens cleaning follow the
instructions precisely as stipulated in the projector manual.
• Only connect the projector to signal sources and voltages as described in the technical speci fi cation. Connecting to unspeci fi ed
signal sources or voltages may lead to malfunction and permanent damage of the unit.
• Allowed ambient temperature range: t
a
= 10°C (50°F) to 40°C (104°F)
• Rated humidity = 20% RH to 80% RH Non-condensed.
• Do not operate the projector outside its temperature and humidity speci fi cations as this may result in overheating and malfunc-
tion.
On servicing
• Do not attempt to service this product yourself. This product contains no user serviceable parts except parts describe in the User
manual. Attempts to modify/replace mechanics or electronics inside the housing or compartments will violate any warranties
and may expose you to dangerous voltage potentials, risk of electric shock and retinal eye injury.
• Refer all servicing to Barco authorized repair centers.
• 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 Barco authorized repair center 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.
