Adhesion to the lens, mirrors or other optical parts may reduce image quality.
• Near high-voltage power lines or sources of electrical power
This may cause malfunction.
• On soft surfaces such as carpets or cushioned mats
Heat may build up inside the projector and damage it.
• Locations with excessive temperature or humidity
This may damage the projector. Acceptable ranges for operating and storage
temperature and humidity are as follows.
*
Operating temperature and humidity applies to when the projector is projecting
or in standby mode.
Prepare the projector as described below before carrying it.
• Disconnect the cables connected to the projector. Carrying the
projector with the cables attached may cause an accident.
• Retract the adjustable feet before moving the projector. Leaving
the feet extended may cause damage.
• Do not strike the projector
or subject it to impact. Doing
so may cause a malfunction.
• Do not install the projector
so that it is inclined or
standing vertically. The
projector may be damaged if
it tips over.
• Do not block the air intake or
exhaust vents of the cooling
fan. Blocking the vents may trap heat inside the projector, which
may shorten the useful life of the lamp or damage the projector.
