Front projection, ceiling mounting

For ceiling mounting, you need the ceiling mount kit designed for this projector. Ask a specialist for instal- lation. For details, con- sult your dealer.

The warranty on this projector does

not cover any damage caused by use of any non- recommended ceiling mount kit or installation of the ceiling mount kit in an improper location.

When using the projector mounted on the ceiling, set IMAGE REVERSE in the INSTALLATION menu to MIRROR INVERT. See page 25.

When the projector is mounted on the ceiling, im- ages 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.

Rear projection

Ask a specialist for installation. For details, consult your dealer.

• For rear projec-

tion, set IMAGE REVERSE in the

INSTALLATION menu to MIRROR. See page 25.

Caution:

Placing the projector directly on a carpet impairs ventilation by the fans, causing damage or failure. Put a hard board under the projector to facilitate ventilation.

Place the projector at least 50 cm (or 20 inch) away from the wall to prevent the air inlet grille and the air outlet grilles that emit hot air from being blocked.

Do not use the projector in the following locations and manners, which may cause fire or electric shock.

In a dusty or humid place.

In a sideways or upside-down position.

Near a heater.

In an oily, smoky, or damp place such as a kitchen.
