This unit is a precision device. Do not install it at the following places. Doing so may cause fire or malfunction of the unit.

•Where there is water, humidity or dust

•Where the unit may be subjected to oily or cigarette smoke

•On a soft surface such as carpet or cushion

•Where the unit may be subjected to high temperature due to direct sunlight

•Where temperature is high or low

Allowable operation temperature range: 41–95ºF, (5–35 °C)

Allowable relative humidity range: 20% to 80% (no condensa- tion)

Any room in which there is cigarette smoke or grease Even where smoke and grease levels are minimal, prolonged exposure will affect this unit. This unit emits heat and optical components are cooled down by taking in large amount of air. The optical path may be soiled by grease/dirt, thus causing images to become dark or color projection to deteriorate. When soiling on the opti- cal components occurs, complete removal of grease/dirt will not be possible.

Precaution for Usage

This unit uses a light-source lamp which reaches high tem- perature when projecting. Please do not use it in the follow- ing ways. Doing so may cause fire or malfunction of the unit.

•Projecting the image while the unit is on its side

•Projecting images outside the specified angle

Do not use this unit by setting it beyond ±5° horizontally (left/ right) or ±25° vertically (up/down). This may cause color varia- tion or shorten the lamp life.

•Projecting images at places where the air inlets and exhaust vents are blocked
