■When Using Mounted on the Ceiling
When the projector is used mounted on the 
ceiling or installed in a high location, it is 
necessary to periodically clean the air 
intake and exhaust vents, and the area 
around the air filter. Dust that accumulates 
in intake or exhaust vents may impair 
ventilation, raising the temperature inside 
and posing a risk of damage or fire. Use a 
vacuum cleaner or similar means to 
remove dust from the intake vent and 
exhaust vent.
