Introduction

Precautions

Installation

•Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in the System.

DO NOT install the System in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.

•Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold—between 5°C and 35°C.

•Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV.

•Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference with the TV.

Power sources

•When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always pull on the plug, not the AC power cord.

DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet hands.

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the System in the following cases:

•After starting to heat the room

•In a damp room

•If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm

place.

Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case, leave the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, then plug it in again.

Internal heat

•Make sure there is good ventilation around the unit. Poor ventilation could overheat and damage the unit.

DO NOT block the ventilation openings or holes. If they are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to get out.

Others

•Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the System, unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer before operating any further.

DO NOT disassemble the System since there are no user serviceable parts inside.

•If you are not going to operate the System for an extended period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall

outlet.

If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer.
