1. Safety Instructions
Always have service performed on this projector by authorized BARCO service personnel.
Always insist on original BARCO replacement parts. Never use non-BARCO replacement parts as they may degrade the safety of
this projector.
Slots and openings in the cabinet and the sides are provided for ventilation; to ensure reliable operation of the projector 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.
This projector should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
Projection rooms must be well ventilated or cooled in order to avoid build up of heat.
Safety On Installation
•
Do not place this equipment on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall, causing serious damage to it.
•
Do not use this equipment near water.
•
Use only the power cord supplied with your projector. While appearing to be similar, other power cords have not been safety
tested at the factory and may not be used to power the projector. For a replacement power cord, contact your dealer.
•
Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom 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 projector should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
•
Do not block the projector cooling fans or free air movement under and around the projector. Loose papers or other objects
may not be nearer to the projector than 4" on any side.
•
Consult a professional structural engineer prior to suspending the ceiling mount from a structure not intended for that use.
Always ensure the working load limit of the structure supporting the projector.
•
When mounting the projector to the ceiling or to a rigging system, always mount security chains.
To prevent personal injury
Caution : High pressure lamp may explode if improperly handled. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel. The customer
should never attempt to disassemble the lamp casing or to dispose of the lamp casing other than by returning it to BARCO.
To prevent injuries and physical damage, always read this manual and all labels on the system before inserting the lamp casing or
connecting to the wall outlet, adjusting the projector.
To prevent injuries, take note of the weight of the projector.
Warning : high intensity light beam. NEVER look into the lens ! Due to the high luminance damage to the eye can happen.
Before attempting to remove any of the projector’s covers, you must turn off the projector and disconnect from the wall outlet.
When performing set up work at a ceiling mounted projector, to prevent injury caused by falling objects or the system, set out a keep
out area.
To prevent projector damage
If the Air Filters are not regularly replaced, the air flow inside the projector could be disrupted, causing overheating. Overheating
may lead to the projector shutting down during operation.
In order to ensure that correct airflow is maintained, and that the projector complies with Electro-Magnetic Compatibility require-
ments, it should always be operated with all of it’s covers in place.
Ensure that nothing can be spilled on, or dropped inside the projector. If this does happen, switch off and unplug the mains supply
immediately. Do not operate the projector again until it has been checked by qualified service personnel.
The projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures free flow of air into its air inlets and unimpeded evacuation of the
hot air exhausted from its cooling system. Heat sensitive materials should not be placed in the path of the exhausted air.
Special Care for Laser Beams
Special care should be used when 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 to the optical engines in which case there is a loss of warranty
Environment condition check
A projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures the free flow of clean air into the projectors ventilation inlets. For
installations in environments where the projector is subject to airborne contaminants such as that produced by smoke machines or
similar (these deposit a thin layer of greasy residue upon the projectors internal optics and imaging electronic surfaces, degrading
performance), then it is highly advisable and desirable to have this contamination removed prior to it reaching the projectors clean
air supply. Devices or structures to extract or shield contaminated air well away from the projector are a prerequisite, if this is not a
feasible solution then measures to relocate the projector to a clean air environment should be considered.
Only ever use the manufactures recommended cleaning kit which has been specifically designed for cleaning optical parts, never
use industrial strength cleaners on a projectors optics as these will degrade optical coatings and damage sensitive optoelectronics
components. Failure to take suitable precautions to protect the projector from the effects of persistent and prolonged air contami-
nants will culminate in extensive and irreversible ingrained optical damage. At this stage cleaning of the internal optical units will be
