Do not attempt to mount the projector on a ceiling yourself.
The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure proper operation and reduce the
risk of bodily injury.
In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the installation must be in accor-
dance with any local building codes. Please consult your dealer for more information.
