Precautions with regard to safety

Important Information

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.

Do not mix old and new batteries.

If the batteries are used mixing old and new, they may explode or leak, and fire, injury or contamination of the battery compartment and surrounding area may result.

Remove the used batteries from the remote control promptly.

If you leave used batteries in the remote control for an extended period of time, it may cause liquid leaking, abnormal internal temperature rising or explosion.

If not using the projector for an extended period of time, disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket and remove the batteries from the remote control.

If dust builds up on the mains plug, the resulting humidity may damage the insulation, which could result in fire.

Keeping or leaving the remote control with batteries inside may cause insulation deterioration, electrical leakage or explosion which could result in fire.

Do not put your weight on this projector.

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

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

Disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket as a safety precaution before carrying out any cleaning.

Electric shocks can result if this is not done.

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 may 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 may 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 the replacement of the lamp unit and check the inside of the projector.

Ask an Authorised Service Centre to clean inside the projector at least once a year.

If dust is left to build up inside the projector without being cleaned out, it can result in fire or problems with operation.

It is a good idea to clean the inside of the projector before the season for humid weather arrives. Ask your nearest Authorised Service Centre to clean the projector when required. Please discuss with the Authorised Service Centre regarding cleaning costs.

Do not use chemical treated wipes when cleaning. Using chemical treated wipes may result in plastic distortion or deterioration.

We are constantly making efforts to preserve and maintain a clean environment. Please take non repairable units back to your dealer or a recycling company.

Cautions when transporting

Do not subject the projector to excessive vibration or shocks.

The projector lens need to be handled with care. Cover the lens with the lens cover when transporting the projector.

When transporting the projector, hold the body at the bottom securely.

Do not hold the adjuster legs or the top cover to move the projector, as this may damage the projector.

Cautions when installing

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

The internal parts can be damaged, which may cause malfunctions or accidents.

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

The life of the lamp may be shortened or the projector may be turned off. See “TEMP indicator” on page 49.
