Do not look into the lens while the projector is being used.

B

Strong light is emitted from the projector’s lens. If you look directly into this
light, it can hurt and damage your eyes.

B

Be especially careful not to let young children look into the lens. In
addition, turn off the power and disconnect the mains plug when you are
away from the projector.

Do not place your skin into the light beam while the projector is being used.

B

Strong light is emitted from the projector’s lens. If you place directly into
this light, it can hurt or damage your skin.

Do not place your hands or other objects close to the air outlet port.

B

Heated air comes out of the air outlet port. Do not place your hands or
face, or objects which cannot withstand heat close to this port [allow at
least 10cm (4”) of space], otherwise burns or damage could result.

Replacement of the lamp should only be carried out by a qualified
technician.

B

The lamp has high internal pressure. If improperly handled, explosion
might result.

B

The lamp can easily become damaged if struck against hard objects or
dropped, and injury or malfunctions may result.

When replacing the lamp, allow it to cool for at least one hour before
handling it.

B

The lamp cover gets very hot, and touching it can cause burns.

Before replacing the lamp, be sure to disconnect the mains plug from
the mains socket.

B

Electric shocks or explosions can result if this is not done.

Do not allow infants or pets to touch the remote control unit.

B

The accessory remote control unit can be used to operate not only the
projector but also other appliances such as air conditioners and electrical
device by programming them using the learning function. If the remote
control unit operated inappropriately, fire or injury may result.

B

Keep the remote control unit out of the reach of infants and pets after
using it.

Caution

Do not cover the air inlet port or the air outlet port.

B

Doing so may cause the projector to overheat, which can cause fire or
damage to the projector.

B

Do not place the projector in narrow, badly ventilated places such as
closets or bookshelves.

Do not set up the projector in humid or dusty places or in places where
the projector may come into contact with smoke or steam.

B

Using the projector under such conditions may result in fire or electric
shocks.

When disconnecting the mains lead, hold the plug, not the lead.

B

If the mains lead itself is pulled, the lead will become damaged, and fire,
short-circuits or serious electric shocks may result.

Always disconnect all cables before moving the projector.

B

Moving the projector with cables still attached can damage the cables,
which could cause fire or electric shocks to occur.

Do not place any heavy objects on top of the projector.

B

Failure to observe this may cause the projector to become unbalanced
and fall, which could result in damage or injury.

Do not short-circuit, heat or disassemble the batteries or place them
into water or fire.

B

Failure to observe this may cause the batteries to overheat, leak, explode
or catch fire, and burns or other injury may result.

When inserting the batteries, make sure the polarities (+ and -) are
correct.

B

If the batteries are inserted incorrectly, they may explode or leak, and fire,
injury or contamination of the battery compartment and surrounding area
may result.

Use only the specified batteries.

B

If incorrect batteries are used, they may explode or leak, and fire, injury or
contamination of the battery compartment and surrounding area may
result.

Do not mix old and new batteries.

B

If the batteries are inserted incorrectly, they may explode or leak, and fire,
injury or contamination of the battery compartment and surrounding area
may result.

Do not put your weight on this projector.

B

You could fall or the projector could break, and injury may result.

B

Be especially careful not to let young children stand or sit on the projector.

Disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket as a safety
precaution before carrying out any cleaning.

B

Electric shocks can result if this is not done.

Ask an Authorised Service Centre to clean inside the projector at least
once a year.

B

If dust is left to build up inside the projector without being cleaned out, it
can result in fire or problems with operation.

B

It is a good idea to clean the inside of the projector before the season for
humid weather arrives. Ask your nearest Authorised Service Centre to
clean the projector when required. Please discuss with the Authorised
Service Centre regarding cleaning costs.

We are constantly making efforts to preserve and maintain a clean
environment. Please take non repairable units back to your dealer or a
recycling company.
