Take note of the following advice in order to prevent malfunction and damage.
Be sure to observe the operating temperatures
and storage temperatures given in this guide
when using and storing the projector.
Do not set up the unit in places where it might
be subjected to vibration or shock.
Do not install the unit close to television, radio or
video equipment that generates magnetic fields.
This may adversely affect the audio and images of
this unit, and may cause a malfunction. In the event
that such symptoms occur, move the unit further
away from any television, radio and video
equipment.
Do not operate the projector under any of the
following conditions. If this is not observed,
problems with operation or accidents may result.
Do not move this unit during playback.
This may damage the disc or cause malfunction.
Avoid using or storing this unit in cigarette or
other smoke filled places, or in rooms containing
a large amount of dust.
This may cause degradation of the image quality.
Do not touch the projection lens with your bare
hands.
If fingerprints or marks are left on the face of the

the unit is not in use, be sure to attach the lens cover.
EPSON will not be held responsible for damage
arising from projector or lamp failure outside the
range of that which is covered in your warranty
terms.
You can store the unit in an upright position
compactly on a shelf, etc., as it has storage feet
on its side. When storing the unit in an upright
position, place it on a stable surface with the
storage feet at the bottom. Be sure to place the
unit in the storage case supplied with the unit so
that no dust enters the air intake vent.
If you move this unit from a cold place into a warm
room, or, if the room in which this unit is installed is
heated rapidly, condensation (moisture) may form
internally or on the lens surface. If condensation forms,
it may not only cause incorrect operation such as
weakening of the image, but also damage the disc and/
or parts. In order to prevent against condensation, setup
this unit in the room approximately one hour before it is
to be used. If by some chance condensation does form,
disconnect the power cable from the outlet, then wait
one to two hours before use.
A mercury lamp with high internal pressure is used as
the unit’s light source.
The characteristics of the mercury lamp are:
The intensity of the lamp decreases with use.
When the lamp reaches the end of its life, it will no
longer light or may break with a loud noise.
The life of the lamp may vary greatly depending on
the individual lamp characteristics and the operating
environment. You should always have a spare lamp
ready in case it is needed.
Once the lamp replacement period has elapsed, the
possibility of lamp breakage incrcases. When the
lamp replacement message appears, replace the lamp
with a new one as soon as possible.
