•When using the projector mounted on the ceiling, set IMAGE REVERSE in the INSTALLATION menu to MIRROR INVERT. See page 32.
•When the projector is mounted on the ceiling, images may appear darker than those projected in the case of tabletop mounting. This isn’t a product malfunction.
•Ask your installation specialist to provide an A/C power switch. When you do not use the projector, be sure to shut down the main power by the switch.
•Do not install the projector where the exhaust vents are exposed to air emitted by an air conditioning. Such installation may cause a breakdown.
•Do not install the projector near a fire alarm because it emits hot air from its exhaust vents.
•Near a heater.
•In an oily, smoky, or damp place such as a kitchen.
•In direct sunlight.
•Where the temperature rises high, such as in a closed car.
•Where the temperature is lower than +41ºF (or +5ºC) or higher than +95ºF (or +35ºC ).
•Keep foliage plants and pets away from the projector. The temperature around the exhaust vents and that of the cabinet on the top of the exhaust vents become high. Take special care for small children.
Important:
•We don’t recommend using the projector at an altitude of 1500 meters or higher. Use at an altitude of 1500 meters or higher may affect the projector’s life.
