■Take care with the lens so as not to hit or damage the surface of the lens.
Rest your eyes occasionally.
■Continuously watching the screen for long hours will make your eyes tired. Be sure to rest your eyes sometimes.
Cautions concerning the setup of the projector
■For minimal servicing and to maintain high image quality, SHARP recommends that this projector be installed in an area free from humidity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the projector is subjected to these environments, the lens must be cleaned more often. As long as the projector is regularly cleaned, use in these environments will not reduce the overall operation life of the unit. Internal cleaning should only be performed by a Sharp Autho- rized Projector Dealer or Service Center.
Do not set up the projector in places exposed to direct sunlight or bright light.
■Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly on the screen washes out the colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room.
Avoid locations with high or low tem- perature.
■The operating temperature for the projector is from 41°F to 95°F (+5°C to +35°C)
■The storage temperature for the projector is from
Do not block the exhaust and intake vents.
■Allow at least 11.8 inches (30 cm) of space between the exhaust vent and the nearest wall or obstruction.
■Be sure that the intake vent and the exhaust vent are not obstructed.
■If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro- tection circuit will automatically turn off the projector. This does not indicate a malfunc- tion. Remove the projector power cord from the wall outlet and wait at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked, plug the power cord back in and turn on the projector. This will return the projector to the normal oper- ating condition.
The projector may safely be tilted to a maximum angle of 10 degrees.
■Placement should be
within ±10 degrees.

■When transporting the projector, be sure not to subject it to hard impact and/or vibration, as this can result in damage. Take extra caution with the lens. Before moving the projector, be sure to retract the antenna and the card eject button. Also, be sure to unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, discon- nect any other cables connected to it and retract the antenna.
