PRODUCT DISPOSALThis projector utilizes tin-lead solder, and a pressurized lamp containing a small amount of
mercury. Disposal of these materials may be regulated due to environmental considerations.
For disposal or recycling information, please contact your local authorities or, if you are
located in the United States of America, the Electronic Industries Alliance: www.eiae.org .
This EIKI projector uses a DMD panel. This very sophisticated panel contains 786,432 pixels
(micromirrors). As with any high technology electronic equipment such as large screen TVs,
video systems and video cameras, there are certain acceptable tolerances that the equipment
must conform to.
This unit has some inactive pixels within acceptable tolerances which may result in inactive dots
on the picture screen. This will not affect the picture quality or the life expectancy of the unit.
WARNING:
This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio
interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures. The enclosed computer cable must be used with the device. The cable is provided to
ensure that the device complies with FCC Class A verification.
U.S.A. ONLY
WARNING:The cooling fan in this projector continues to run for about 90 seconds after the projector enters
standby mode. During normal operation, when putting the projector into standby mode always
use the STANDBY-ON button on the projector or the STANDBY button on the remote control.
Ensure the cooling fan has stopped before disconnecting the power cord.
DURING NORMAL OPERATION, NEVER TURN THE PROJECTOR OFF BY DISCONNECTING
THE POWER CORD. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS WILL RESULT IN PREMATURE LAMP FAILURE.
