Safety Precautions
WARNING:
• THIS APPARATUS MUST BE GROUNDED.
• TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLI-
ANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
• This projector produces intense light from the projection lens. Do not stare directly into the lens,
otherwise eye damage could result. Be especially careful that children do not stare directly into the
beam.
• Install the projector in a proper position. Otherwise it may result in a fire hazard.
• Allowing the proper amount of space on the top, sides, and rear of the projector cabinet is critical for
proper air circulation and cooling of the unit. The diagram shown here indicates the minimum space
required. If the projector is to be built into a compartment or similarly enclosed, these minimum
distances must be maintained.
• Do not cover the ventilation slots on the projector. Heat build-up can reduce the service life of your
projector, and can also be dangerous.
• If the projector is unused for an extended time, unplug the projector from the power outlet.
• Do not project the same image for a long time.
An afterimage may remain on the DMD panel due to the characteristics of the panel of the projector.
CAUTION ON HANGING FROM THE CEILING
When hanging the projector from the ceiling, clean the air intake vents and top of the projector
periodically with a vacuum cleaner. If you leave the projector unclean for a long time, the cooling fans can
be clogged with dust, and it may cause a breakdown or a disaster.
DO NOT SET THE PROJECTOR IN GREASY, WET, OR SMOKY CONDITIONS SUCH AS IN
A KITCHEN TO PREVENT A BREAKDOWN OR A DISASTER. IF THE PROJECTOR COMES
IN CONTACT WITH OIL OR CHEMICALS, IT MAY BECOME DETERIORATED.
