Precautions with regard to safety

NGLISH - 10
Important 
Information
Do not mix old and new batteries.
 
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.
Remove the used batteries from the remote control 
promptly.
 
If you leave used batteries in the remote control for 
an extended period of time, it may cause liquid 
leaking, abnormal internal temperature rising or 
explosion.
If not using the projector for an extended period of 
time, disconnect the mains plug from the mains 
socket and remove the batteries from the remote 
control.
 
If dust builds up on the mains plug, the resulting 
humidity may damage the insulation, which could 
result in fire.
 
Keeping or leaving the remote control with batteries 
inside may cause insulation deterioration, electrical 
leakage or explosion which could result in fire.
Do not put your weight on this projector.
 
You could fall or the projector could break, and injury 
may result.
 
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.
 
Electric shocks can result if this is not done.
If the lamp has broken, ventilate the room 
immediately. Do not touch or bring your face close 
to the broken pieces.
 
Failure to observe this may cause the user to absorb 
the gas which was released when the lamp broke and 
which contains nearly the same amount of mercury 
as fluorescent lamps, and the broken pieces may 
cause injury.
 
If you believe that you have absorbed the gas or that 
the gas has got into your eyes or mouth, seek 
medical advice immediately.
 
Ask your dealer about the replacement of the lamp 
unit and check the inside of the projector.
Ask an Authorised Service Centre to clean inside the 
projector at least once a year.
 
If dust is left to build up inside the projector without 
being cleaned out, it can result in fire or problems 
with operation.
 
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.
Do not subject the projector to excessive vibration 
or shocks.
 
The projector lens need to be handled with care.
Be sure to use the accessory carrying bag when 
moving the projector.
 
When placing the projector inside the carrying bag, 
position it so that the lens is facing upward. Do not 
place the projector with its adjustable legs extended 
and do not put anything else in the bag other than the 
projector, cables and the remote control unit.
Avoid setting up in places which are subject to 
vibration or shocks.
 
The internal parts can be damaged, which may cause 
malfunctions or accidents.
Avoid setting up in places which are subject to 
sudden temperature changes, such as near an air 
conditioner or lighting equipment.
 
The life of the lamp may be shortened or the projector 
may be turned off. See “TEMP indicator” on page 40.
Do not set up the projector near high-voltage power 
lines or near motors.
 
The projector may be subject to electromagnetic 
interference.
If installing the projector to the ceiling, ask a 
qualified technician to carry out all installation work.
 
You will need to purchase the separate installation kit 
(Model No. ET-PKB50). Furthermore, all installation 
work is should only be carried out by a qualified 
technician.
If using this projector at high elevations 
(above 1 400 m), set the HIGHLAND to ON. See 
“HIGHLAND” on page 38.
 
Failure to observe this may result in malfunctions or 
the life of the lamp or the other components may be 
shortened.
