floor and walls are not of light-reflecting material. If
the floor and walls are of reflecting material, it is
recommended that the carpet and wall paper be
changed to a dark color.
On preventing internal heat build-up
The projector is equipped with ventilation holes
(intake) at the bottom and ventilation holes (exhaust)
at the rear. Do not block or place anything near these
holes, or internal heat build-up may occur, causing
picture degradation or damage to the projector.
On cleaning
• To keep the cabinet looking new, periodically clean
it with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed
with a cloth lightly dampened with a mild detergent
solution. Never use strong solvents, such as thinner,
benzene, or abrasive cleansers, since these will
damage the cabinet.
• Avoid touching the lens. To remove dust on the lens,
use a soft dry cloth. Do not use a damp cloth,
detergent solution, or thinner.
• Clean the filter at regular intervals.
On repacking
• Save the original shipping carton and packing
material; they will come in handy if you ever have to
ship your unit. For maximum protection, repack your
unit as it was originally packed at the factory.
