Information
WARNING
POWER
The mains socket or the circuit breaker
shall be installed near the equipment and
shall be easily accessible when problems
occur. If the followings problems occur,
cut off the power supply immediately.
Continued use of the projector in these conditions will
result in fire or electric shock.
If foreign objects or water get inside the projector,
z
cut off the power supply.
If the projector is dropped or the cabinet is broken,
z
cut off the power supply.
If you notice smoke, strange smells or noise com-
z
ing from the projector, cut off the power supply.
Please contact an Authorised Service Centre for
repairs, and do not attempt to repair the projector
yourself.
During a thunderstorm, do not touch the
projector or the cable.
Electric shocks can result.
Do not do anything that might damage
the mains lead or the mains plug.
If the mains lead is used while damaged, electric
shocks, short-circuits or fire will result.
Do not damage the mains lead, make any modifi-
z
cations to it, place it near any hot objects, bend it
excessively, twist it, pull it, place heavy objects on
top of it or wrap it into a bundle.
Ask an Authorised Service Centre to carry out any
repairs to the mains lead that might be necessary.
Insert the mains plug securely into the
mains socket.
If the plug is not inserted correctly, electric shocks or
overheating will result.
Do not use anything other than the provided mains
z
lead.
Do not use plugs which are damaged or mains
z
sockets which are coming loose from the wall.
Clean the mains plug regularly to prevent
it from becoming covered in dust.
Failure to observe this will cause a fire.
If dust builds up on the mains plug, the resulting
z
humidity can damage the insulation.
If not using the projector for an extended period of
z
time, pull the mains plug out from the mains socket.
Pull the mains plug out from the mains socket and
wipe it with a dry cloth regularly.
Do not handle the mains plug with wet
hands.
Failure to observe this will result in electric shocks.
Do not overload the mains socket.
If the power supply is overloaded (ex., by using too many
adapters), overheating may occur and fire will result.
ON USE/INSTALLATION
Do not place liquid containers on top of
the projector.
If water spills onto the projector or gets inside it, fire or
electric shocks will result.
If any water gets inside the projector, contact an
Authorised Service Centre.
Do not place the projector on soft materi-
als such as carpets or sponge mats.
Doing so will cause the projector to overheat, which
can cause burns, fire or damage to the projector.
Do not set up the projector in humid or
dusty places or in places where the pro-
jector may come into contact with oily
smoke or steam, ex a bathroom.
Using the projector under such conditions will result
in fire, electric shocks or components deterioration.
Components deterioration (such as ceiling mount
brackets) may cause the projector which is mounted
on the ceiling to fall down.
Do not install this projector in a place
which is not strong enough to take the
full weight of the projector or on top of a
surface which is sloped or unstable.
Failure to observe this will cause projector to fall down
or tip over the projector, and severe injury or damage
could result.
Do not place another projector or other
heavy objects on top of the projector.
Failure to observe this will cause the projector to
become unbalanced and fall, which could result in
damage or injury. The projector will be damaged or
deformed.
Installation work (such as ceiling sus-
pension) should only be carried out by a
qualified technician.
If installation is not carried out and secured correctly it
can cause injury or accidents, such as electric shocks.
Do not use anything other than an Authorised ceil-
z
ing mount bracket.
Do not cover the air inlet port or the air
outlet port.
Doing so will cause the projector to overheat, which
can cause fire or damage to the projector.
Do not place the projector in narrow, badly venti-
z
lated places such as closets or bookshelves.
Do not place the projector on cloth or papers, as
z
these materials could be drawn into the air inlet port.
Do not place your hands or other objects
close to the air outlet port.
Doing so will cause burns or damage your hands or
other objects.
Heated air comes out of the air outlet port. Do not
z
place your hands or face, or objects which cannot
withstand heat close to this port.
