This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100–120 V or
200–240 V AC and it automatically selects the correct input
voltage. It is designed to work with single-phase power
systems having a grounded neutral conductor. To reduce the
risk of electrical shock, do not plug into any other type of
power system.
If you are not sure of the type of power being supplied,
consult your authorized dealer or service station.
