■The cabinet as well as the operation panel is made of plastic. Avoid using benzene or thinner, as these can damage the finish on the cabinet.
■Do not use volatile agents such as insecticides on the projector.
Do not attach rubber or plastic items to the projec- tor for long periods.
The effects of some of the agents in the plastic may cause damage to the quality or finish of the projector.
