•This projector is equipped with the power cords for both U.S. and Europe. Use the appropriate power cord for your country.

•A three-pin grounding type power plug is used with the projector. Do not remove the grounding pin on the power plug. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your A/C outlet.

•The supplied power cord for U.S. is used for 120V only. Never connect to any outlet or power supply having a different voltage or frequency. If you connect to the power supply having a different voltage, please use the appropriate power cord.

•Use 100-240V AC 50/60Hz correct voltage other- wise it may lead to fire or electric shock.
