Important Information

Precautions with regard to safety

„„ON USE/INSTALLATION

Do not put your weight on this projector.

You could fall or the projector could break, and injury will result.

zz Be especially careful not to let young children stand or sit on the projector.

Do not place the projector in extremely hot locations.

Doing so will cause the outer casing or internal components to deteriorate, or result in fire.

zz Take particular care in locations exposed to direct sunlight or near stoves.

Always disconnect all cables before moving the projector.

Moving the projector with cables still attached can damage the cables, which will cause fire or electric shocks to occur.

„„ACCESSORIES

Do not use the old lamp unit.

If used, it could cause lamp explosion.

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 will 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 will 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 replacing the lamp unit and check the inside of the projector.

Do not place your hands in the openings beside the optical lens, while shifting the lens.

Failure to observe this could cause injury.

Do not use projectors with the adjustable feet or lens unit cover removed.

If this not observed, the sets will not operate correctly or accidents will result.

Cautions when transporting

When transporting the projector or carrying it around, make sure that the lens cap is always in place, and remove the lens. Please take care to keep them away from vibration and impacts, both the projector and the lens are precision-made and easily susceptible to damage.

When transporting the projector, the adjuster legs must be housed and do not hold them. Please securely hold only its bottom and none of its other parts or surfaces as this will result in malfunctions.

Cautions when installing

„„Do not use under the following conditions.

zzDo not set up the projector outdoors.

The projector is designed for indoor use only.

zzAvoid setting up in places which are subject to vibration or shocks.

If the projector is installed in a place where vibrations are transmitted or mounted in a car or a vessel, vibrations or impacts will result in damage to the internal parts, causing failure. Install the product in a place free from vibrations and impacts.

zzAvoid setting up in places which are subject to sudden temperature changes, such as near an air conditioner or lighting equipment.

Failure to observe this will result in malfunctions or the lamp life will be shortened.

See “TEMP indicator” on page 25.

zzAvoid setting up in places which are near high- voltage power lines or near motors.

The product will be exposed to interference if it is installed in the vicinity of high-voltage electrical power lines or power sources.

zzDo not install the projector at elevations higher than 2 700 m (8 858 ft) above sea level.

If using this projector at high elevations 1 400 -

2 700 m (4 593 - 8 858 ft) above sea level, set the HIGH ALTITUDE MODE to ON.

Failure to observe this will result in malfunctions or the lamp life or life of other components will be shortened.

„„Be sure to ask a specialised

technician when installing the product to a ceiling.

If the product is to be installed hanging from the ceiling, purchase an optional hanging attachment (For high ceilings: Model No. ET-PKE1000S, For low ceilings: Model No. ET-PKE2000). Please call a specialised technician or contact an Authorised Service Centre for installation.

„„Be sure to put on the lens unit cover after installing the projection lens.

If this not done, dust will collect inside the projector and problems with the projector can result.

„„Lens Focus

Do not adjust the lens focus in the initial period after switching the projector on. The high clarity projector lens is thermally affected by the light from the light source, making the focus unstable in the period just after switching on. Please allow a warm-up time before adjusting the lens focus.
