medical attention if unusual health conditions occur after a lamp rupture, explosion, such as headache, fatigue,
shortness of breath, chest-tightening coughing or nausea.
To prevent fire hazard
Do not place flammable or combustible materials near the projector!
y
Barco large screen projection products are designed and manufactured to meet the most stringent safety regu-
y
lations. This projector radiates heat on its external surfaces and from ventilation ducts during normal operation,
which is both normal and safe. Exposing flammable or combustible materials into close proximity of this projec -
tor could result in the spontaneous ignition of that material, resulting in a fire. For this reason, it is absolutely
necessary to leave an “exclusion zone” around all external surfaces of the projector whereby no flammable or
combustible materials are present. The exclusion zone must be not less than 50 cm (20”) for all DLP projectors.
The exclusion zone on the lens side must be at least 5 m. Do not cover the projector or the lens with any mate -
rial while the projector is in operation. Keep flammable and combustible materials away from the projector at
all times. Mount the projector in a well-ventilated area away from sources of ignition and out of direct sun light.
Never expose the projector to rain or moisture. In the event of fire, use sand, CO2 or dry powder fire extinguish -
ers. Never use water on an electrical fire. Always have service performed on this projector by authorized Barco
service personnel. Always insist on genuine Barco replacement parts. Never use non-Barco replacement parts
as they may degrade the safety of this projector.
Slots and openings in this equipment are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the projector
y
and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never
be blocked by placing the projector too close to walls, or other similar surface. This projector 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.
y
Let the projector cool down completely before storing. Remove cord from the projector when storing.
y
Heat sensitive materials should not be placed in the path of the exhausted air or on the lamp house.

To prevent projector damage
This projector has been designed for use with a specific lamp (house) type. See installation instructions for its
y
correct type.
The air filters of the projector must be cleaned or replaced on regular base (a “clean” booth would be monthly-
y
minimum). Neglecting this could result in disrupting the air flow inside the projector, causing overheating. Over -
heating may lead to the projector shutting down during operation.
The projector must always be installed in a manner which ensures free flow of air into its air inlets and unim -
y
peded evacuation of the hot air from its cooling system.
In order to ensure that correct airflow is maintained, and that the projector complies with Electromagnetic Com -
y
patibility (EMC) requirements, it should always be operated with all of its covers in place.
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product and
y
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 unplug
y
the mains supply immediately. Do not operate the projector again until it has been checked by qualified service
personnel.
Do not block the projector cooling fans or free air movement around the projector. Loose papers or other objects
y
may not be nearer to the projector than 30 cm (12”) on any side.
Do not use this equipment near water.
y
Special care for Laser Beams: Special care should be used when DLP projectors are used in the same room as
y
high power laser equipment. Direct or indirect hitting of a laser beam on to the lens can severely damage the
Digital Mirror Devices™ in which case there is a loss of warranty.
Never place the projector in direct sun light. Sun light on the lens can severely damage the Digital Mirror De-
y
vices™ 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
y
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
y
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 deter-
gent solution.
