Leave the front area of the unit unblocked.
If there is any obstructing object in front of the exhaust
vent, hot air will flow back to the unit and cause it to heat
up. Hot air flowing out of the unit may cast shadows on
the screen (heat haze phenomenon).

This unit uses a projection lamp, which will heat up when
in use.
