Before use

Caution when moving the projector

Be sure to attach the lens cover before moving the projector.

The projection lens is extremely susceptible to vibration and shocks. When moving the projector, use the accessory carrying bag. When placing the projector inside the carrying bag, position it so that the lens is facing upward. Do not put anything else in the bag other than the projector and the cables.

Cautions regarding setting-up

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.

The life of the lamp may be shortened.

Do not set up the projector near high-voltage power lines or near motors.

The projector may be subject to electromagnetic interference.

If installing the projector to the ceiling, ask a qualified technician to carry out all installation work.

You will need to purchase the separate installation kit (Model No.ET-PKB30). Furthermore, all installation work should only be carried out by a qualified technician.

If using this projector at high elevations (above 1 400 m), set the “FAN CONTROL” to “HIGH”. (Refer to page 47.)
