BE SURE TO CHECK FOR SAFETY
After installing or replacing the lens, be 
sure to check the following for safety.
1.   Check the lens is securely fixed 
with the screws.
2.  Check no wiring is damaged or 
tangled on the gear of the lens 
motor or  the other mechanical 
parts.
3.  Check no part is missing, and 
no mounting part is loose.
When the lens is attached to the projector and images 
are being projected onto the screen, the peripheral 
focus may be out of focus in some localized areas. If 
this happens, insert the one, of three sizes of spacers, 
in between the Lens Attachment and the lens to adjust 
the focus.
Inserting the Spacer corrects the distance on the Lens 
Adjustment and improves the diagonal focus.
The corrected distance is determined by the thickness 
of the used spacers. As a guide, the distance is 
adjusted by approximately 30 mm for each 0.1-mm 
thickness of the spacers.
There are three types of spacers provided, and there 
are four of each spacer type. Use these spacers to 
correct the distance as required.

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.
Connect the projector with all peripheral equipment before turning 
on the projector.
