Safety S ummary
Do not look in to th e len s!
Be extremely  careful not  to look  into the  projection  lens when the 
LitePro is turned on. The bright light may harm your eyes. B e 
especially careful to keep children from looking into the lens.
Turning projector on and of f
Allow the projector to warm up for three minutes before turning 
it off; allow the projector to cool down for three minutes before 
turning it back on. Repeatedly turning the projector on and off 
without waiting three minutes may cause the lamp to explode.
Power source
Use only a three-wire grounding type power source. The nominal 
power source should not exceed 240 volts rms between the sup-
ply conductors or between either conductor and the ground.
Power cord
Use only the power cord that was s hipped with the LitePro. 
Although other power cords might be similar  in appearance, they 
have not been safety-tested with the 610 or 620. Do not use a 
power cord if it has become damaged or frayed. Contact your In 
Focus dealer or call In Focus if you need to replace your power 
cord.

The projector is grounded through the grounding conductor on 
the  power cord. To avoid electric shock, plug the power cord into 
a properly wired receptacle. Do not defeat the purpose of the 
grounding-type plug.
Lamp
To avoid overheating and unacceptable image quality, replace 
the projection lamp with a lamp of the specified type. Refer to 
page 52  for lamp specifications and  to  page 41 for instructions  on 
replacing the lamp. 
						

							v
Lamp compartm ent
To avoid burns or an explosion hazard, do not open the lamp 
module door until the projector is turned off and the lamp has 
cooled. The hot lamp contains high pressure and can explode if 
damaged or old. Follow the instructions in this manual for lamp 
replacement carefully.
Hot surfaces
Allow the projector to cool at least 45 minutes before replacing a 
lamp. When you open the lamp housing, be very careful not to 
touch the hot surfaces inside.
Ventilation and overh eating
Openings in the projector case provide ventilation to protect it 
from overheating.  Keep  loose papers and  other  objects well  away 
from the bottom, top and side grills. Do not  place the projector on 
top of or close to a computer or other heat-producing equipment.
Liqu id spills
Do  not  set drinks on  top  of  the  projector. Spilled liquids can  flow 
inside and cause damage.
NOTE: If you open t he proj ect or, 
yo u wil l void  the wa rran ty. Do not d isassemb leAll service must be performed by an  In Focus Authorized  Service 
Provider. The only user-serviceable part in the projector is the 
projection lamp, which you can replace by opening the lamp 
cover  in  the front of the  projector as described  on page41. Do not 
open  any  other part of  the  projector.  If your LitePro needs repair, 
call In Focus Customer Service as described on page 4. Before 
you call Customer Service, you may want to refer to “Trouble-
shooting” starting on page 45 to see if you can resolve the prob-
lem yourself.

Introduction
Usage Guidelines
•Do not look directly into the projection  lens when the projector 
is turned on. The bright light may harm your eyes.
•The top and bottom of the projector can be very hot to the 
touch after use. Use extreme care or let it cool before lifting it.
•Do not block the grills at the front, side, top or bottom of the 
projector. Restricting the air flow through the projector can 
cause it to overheat and turn off.
NOTE : I f the proj ector overheats
and t urns off, yo u mu st wa it 45
second s b efore you a ttempt to
turn i t ba ck  on.•
Handle the projector as you would any product with glass 
components. Be especially careful not to drop it.
•Avoid leaving the projector in direct sunlight or extreme cold 
for extended periods of time. If this happens, allow it to reach 
room temperature before use.
•Transport  the projector  in a  vendor-approved hard or  soft case. 
Call your In Focus dealer for more information.

SETTING UP THE PROJECTOR
1Place the projector on a flat surface.
•The projector must be within 10 feet of your power source 
and within 10 feet of your computer.
NOTE: An  optiona l extension 
cab le, s old  separately, lets you  
in creas e the di sta nce between th e 
proj ecto r and  you r  co mputer to 50  
feet. See “A cces sories”  on 
page 53. •
If you want to project from behind a translucent screen, set 
up the projector behind your screen. See “Rear Projection” 
on page 40 to reverse the image.
•If you are installing the projector on the ceiling, see the 
LitePro 610/620 Ceiling Mount Installation Guide for recom-
mendations. To turn the image upside down, see “Ceiling” 
on page 39. The Ceiling Mount Kit is sold s eparately. See 
“Accessories” on page 53.
2Position the projector the desired distance from the screen.
•The distance from the lens of the projector to the screen 
determines the size of the projected image. Figure 2 shows 
three projected image sizes for the 610; Figure 3 shows 
image sizes for the 620. For more information, see “Pro-
jected Image Size” on page 60.
3Make sure the projector and your computer are turned off.
