Do not place your hands or other objects close to the air outlet port.

Heated air comes out of the air outlet port. Do not place your hands or face, or objects which cannot withstand heat close to this port [allow at least

50 cm (20") of space], otherwise burns or damage could result.

CAUTIONS

Replacement of the lamp is recommended to be carried out by a qualified technician.

The lamp has high internal pressure. If improperly handled, explosion might result.

The lamp can easily become damaged if struck against hard objects or dropped, and injury or malfunctions may result.

When replacing the lamp, allow it to cool for at least one hour before handling it.

The lamp cover gets very hot, and touching it can cause burns.

Before replacing the lamp, be sure to disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet.

Electric shocks or explosions can result if this is not done.

Do not allow infants or pets to touch the remote control unit.

Keep the remote control unit out of the reach of infants and pets after using it.

Important Information

Do not cover the air inlet port or the air outlet port. Doing so may cause the projector to overheat, which can cause fire or damage to the projector.

Do not place the projector in narrow, badly ventilated places such as closets or bookshelves.

Do not place the projector on cloth or papers, as these materials could be drawn into the air inlet port.

Do not set up the projector in humid or dusty places or in places where the projector may come into contact with oily smoke or steam.

Using the projector under such conditions may result in fire, electric shocks or plastic deterioration. The plastic deterioration may cause the falling down of the projector which is mounted in the ceiling.

Failure to observe this may result in fire, malfunction or plastic deterioration.

Do not set up the projector outdoors.

When disconnecting the power cord, hold the plug, not the lead.

If the power cord itself is pulled, the lead will become damaged, and fire, short-circuits or serious electric shocks may result.

Always disconnect all cables before moving the projector.

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

Do not place any heavy objects on top of the projector.

Failure to observe this may cause the projector to become unbalanced and fall, which could result in damage or injury.

Do not short-circuit, heat or disassemble the batteries or place them into water or fire.

Failure to observe this may cause the batteries to overheat, leak, explode or catch fire, and burns or other injury may result.

When inserting the batteries, make sure the polarities (+ and -) are correct.

If the batteries are inserted incorrectly, they may explode or leak, and fire, injury or contamination of the battery compartment and surrounding area may result.

Use only the specified batteries.

If incorrect or different kind of batteries are used, they may explode or leak, and fire, injury or contamination of the battery compartment and surrounding area may result.
