    Important Operating Considerations for Safety
    Place the projector in a horizontal position no greater than 15 degrees 
    off axis.
     Locate the projector in a well-ventilated area without any obstructions 
    to intake or exhaust vents. Do not place the projector on a tablecloth or 
    other soft covering that may block the vents.  Locate the projector at least 4 (1.2 m) away from any heating or cooling 
    vents. Use only InFocus-approved ceiling mounts. Use only the power cord provided. A surge-protected power strip is 
    recommended. Refer to this guide for proper startup and shutdown procedures. This product has a lamp which contains a very small amount of mer
    -
    cury. Wash hands after cleaning the area and handling the ruptured 
    lamp. Dispose of it as required by local, state or federal ordinances and 
    regulations. For more information see www.eiae.org.
     In the unlikely event of a lamp rupture, particles may exit through the 
    projector side vents. When the projector is turned on, keep people, 
    food, and drinks out of the keep out area under and around the pro
    -
    jector, as indicated by the X areas below.
    Follow these instructions to help ensure image quality and lamp life over 
    the life of the projector. Failure to follow these instructions may affect the 
    warranty. For complete details of the warranty, see the Warranty booklet.

    Positioning the projectorTo determine where to position the projector, consider the size and shape of 
    your screen, the location of your power outlets, and the distance between 
    the projector and the rest of your equipment. Here are some general guide
    -
    lines: Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The 
    projector must be at least 4.9 feet (1.5m) from the projection screen. Position the projector within 10 feet (3m) of your power source and 
    within 6 feet (1.8m) of your video device (unless you purchase exten
    -
    sion cables). To ensure adequate cable access, do not place the projector 
    within 6 inches (.15m) of a wall or other object.
     If you are installing the projector on the ceiling, refer to the installation 
    guide that comes with the Ceiling Mount Kit for more information. To 
    turn the image upside down, see “Ceiling” on 
    page
     31. We recommend 
    using an InFocus authorized ceiling mount.
     Position the projector the desired distance from the screen. The distance 
    from the lens of the projector to the screen, the zoom setting, and the 
    video format determine the size of the projected image. The image exits the projector at a given angle. This image offset is 
    112.2%. This means that if you have an image 10’ high, the bottom of 
    the image will be 1.12’ above the center of the lens.
