Caution

Do not use the system in a closed cabinet or other locations where heat may
build up. Doing so may cause the system to overheat and may lead to fire,
injury or malfunction.
If the system’s internal temperature becomes elevated, the power indicator
will flash alternately in red and green. In this case, turn off the system
( page 21) and leave it unused for a while. After the system cools down,
move it to a location with good ventilation, and then resume use.

Notices

Do not place the system in an area subject to excessive dust or cigarette
smoke. Dust build-up or cigarette smoke residue on the internal
components (such as the lens) may cause the system to malfunction.
Do not move or change the position of the system while the power indicator
is lit solid green or flashing green. The vibration that occurs as a result of
moving the system may cause data loss or corruption, or damage to the
system.
Hint
When placing the system in a vertical position, use the vertical stand (sold
separately).
