About the keys on the control panel of

commander. You can also use the keys on the projection TV if
they have the same name as those on the remote commander.

Precautions
This projection TV operates on extremely high voltage. To
prevent fire or electric shock, please follow the precautions
below.
Safety
•
Operate the projection TV only on 120 V AC.
•
One blade of the plug is wider than the other for safety
purposes and will fit into the power outlet only one way.
If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet,
contact your dealer.
•
Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet,
unplug the projection TV and have it checked by
qualified personnel before operating it further.
•
Unplug the projection TV from the wall outlet if you are
not going to use it for several days or more. To
disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull
the cord itself.
For details concerning safety precautions, see the supplied
leaflet ”IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS.”
Installing
•
To prevent internal heat build-up, do not block the
ventilation openings.
•
Do not install the projection TV in a hot or humid place,
or in a place subject to excessive dust or mechanical
vibration.
•
Avoid operating the projection TV at temperatures below
5
°
C (41
°
F).
•
If the projection TV is transported directly from a cold to
a warm location, or if the room temperature has changed
suddenly, the picture may be blurred or show poor color.
This is because moisture has condensed on the mirror or
lenses inside. If this happens, let the moisture evaporate
before using the projection TV.
•
To obtain the best picture, do not expose the screen to
direct illumination or direct sunlight. It is recommended
to use spot lighting directed down from the ceiling or to
cover the windows that face the screen with opaque
drapery. It is desirable to install the projection TV in a
room where the floor and walls are not of reflecting
material. If necessary, cover them with dark carpeting or
wall paper.
Note on cleaning
Clean the cabinet of the projection TV with a dry soft cloth.
To remove dust from the screen, wipe it gently with a soft
cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth slightly
dampened with a solution of mild soap and warm water.
Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzine for
cleaning.
If the picture becomes dark after using the projection TV for a
long period of time, it may be necessary to clean the inside of
the projection TV. Consult qualified service personnel.
