Notes on use
In order to get the best picture quality
Draw curtains or blinds over any windows and turn off any fluorescent lights
near the screen to prevent outside light or light from indoor lamps from
shining onto the screen.
Do not touch the surfaces of the lens with your bare hands.
If the surface of the lens becomes dirty from fingerprints or anything else, this
will be magnified and projected onto the screen. Moreover, when not using
the projector, retract the lens and then cover it with the accessory lens cover.
Screen
Do not apply any volatile substances which may cause discoloration to the
screen, and do not let it become dirty or damaged.
Lamp
The lamp may need to be replaced earlier due to variables such as individual
lamp characteristics, usage conditions and the installation environment,
especially when the projector is subjected to continuous use for more than
10 hours or the power is frequently turned on and off.
Liquid crystal panel
B Do not project the same image for long periods of time, as this may remain
as an afterimage on the liquid crystal panel.
B The liquid crystal panel of the projector is built with very high precision
technology to provide fine picture details. Occasionally, a few non-active
pixels may appear on the screen as fixed points of blue, green or red.
Please note that this does not affect the performance of your LCD.
