Additional Safety Instructions

•Safety measures must be practiced at all times during the installation of the home theater system. Proper installation procedures, as outlined in these instructions, must be adhered to. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury or death.

•The home theater system should be installed by a professional audio/video installer or other qualified professional. Epson cannot provide advice concerning construction practices or building codes in your area.

•Prior to installing the home theater system, read the installation instructions completely. Keep these instructions in an easily accessible place for future reference.

•Do not attempt to install this system if you have any doubts as to its proper assembly and installation.

•Use proper equipment to prevent personal injury or property damage, such as a ladder for reaching high places or a stud finder to locate the center of studs.

•The included mounting hardware is intended for use with wooden studs/joists or solid concrete construction. The hardware is not intended to secure any part of the system to metal studs, wallboard or plasterboard, or cinder block wall construction.

•Do not attempt to use hollow-wall anchors, screws, or similar mounting hardware to mount the projector or screen to wallboard or plasterboard. The projector and screen cannot be safely mounted like that. You must mount the projector and screen to wooden studs/joists or to a solid concrete surface, as outlined in these instructions.

•When installing the mounting hardware in concrete, verify that the concrete is at least the same depth as the anchors, and that the anchors will not rest against a layer of plasterboard or other material. Concrete must meet ASTM C-90 specifications and be 2000 psi density minimum. Lighter-density concrete may not hold the anchors.

•The wall or ceiling structure on which the screen is mounted must be capable of safely supporting the weight of the screen (approximately 100 pounds). Likewise, the ceiling structure must be capable of safely supporting the weight of the projector assembly (approximately 50 pounds). If the structures cannot support these weights, they must be reinforced.

•When mounting the equipment on a wall or ceiling that contains studs or joists, the exact center of the studs or joists must be confirmed prior to installation.

•Do not install the projector or screen where it may be subject to impact.

•Do not install the projector or screen in direct sunlight or near a heater vent, fireplace, or other source of heat.

•Two persons are required to lift the screen onto its mounting brackets. It is recommended that a second person should also assist in performing other parts of the installation, such as mounting the projector and
