Important safety instructions
Your BenQ projector is designed and tested to meet the latest standards for safety of 
information technology equipment. However, to ensure safe use of this product, it is 
important that you follow the instructions mentioned in this manual and marked on the 
product. 
Caution
•To prevent shock, do not open the 
cabinet. There are no user serviceable 
parts inside. 
•Please read this user’s manual before 
you operate your projector. Save this 
user’s manual for future reference.   
•Do not look straight at the projector 
lens during operation. The intense 
light beam may damage your eyes. •Refer servicing to qualified service 
personnel. 
•Always open the lens shutter or 
remove the lens cap when the 
projector lamp is on. 
• In some countries, the line voltage is 
NOT stable. This projector is designed 
to operate safely within a mains 
voltage between 100 to 240 volts AC, 
but could fail if power cuts or surges of 
±10 volts occur. In areas where the 
mains voltage may fluctuate or cut out, 
it is recommended that you connect 
your projector through a power 
stabilizer, surge protector or 
uninterruptible power supply (UPS).

or cigarette smoke may contaminate 
optical components, shortening the 
projector’s life span and darkening the 
image.
- Locations near fire alarms

above 40°C / 104°F
- Locations where the altitudes are higher 
than 10000 feet.
