Note that the condition of the environment where you use the projector greatly affects its
performance. Make sure that the following are the conditions of projector setup whenever you
use it.

Use a conveniently located power outlet that you can reach easily when you need to
unplug the projector.

Do not place any objects within the area indicated by the dashed line in the illustration

30 cm (11.8 inches) away from the exhaust vents.

hands. Also, the areas near the exhaust vents also become quite hot. Never locate
objects made of plastic or other heat-sensitive materials near or under the projector. Doing
so creates the risk of deformation and discoloration of the object.

place the projector on top of a carpet, blanket, towel, or other soft material.
