About installation
Important points concerning the installation
This unit is a precision device.  Therefore, please refrain 
from installation or use in the following locations. 
Otherwise, it may cause fire or malfunction.
•   Dust, wet and humid locations.
•   Sooty or cigarette smoke filled locations.
•   On top of a carpet or bedding, or other soft surfaces.
•   Locations with high temperatures - as located in direct 
sunlight
.
•   Locations with high or low temperatures. 
Permissible operating temperature range: +5 º to +35º .
Relative humidity range permissible for operating: 20% 
~ 80% (non-condensing) . 
Storage temperature tolerance: -10º to +60º.
•   If the installation of the unit is done in a room with soot 
and/or  smoke  over a longer  period,  even small  amounts 
of these substances will af fect the device.This unit 
cools i
ts optical components, which produce a great 
amount of heat, by sucking in air . If the optical circuits 
get dirty , this might lead to malfunctions, like the video 
images becoming darker or a deterioration of the color 
development. Dirt sticking to the optical components 
cannot be removed.
For better heat dissipation, please keep a minimum 
distance between this unit and its surroundings as shown 
in 
the following illustration. 
Moreover , please open the front of the unit. If there are 
any objects in front of the exhaust port, the hot air will 
flow back to the unit and heat it.  The hot air flowing out of 
the unit might cause shadows on the screen (heat haze 
phenomenon). 
Moreover , when it is enclosed in a space as shown in the 
following illustration, please make sure that the enclosed 
interior has
 the same temperature as the outside. High 
temperatures might lead to failure of the unit. This unit uses a projection lamp, which will get hot when 
in use. Please refrain from projecting in the following 
circumstances. 
Otherwise, it might cause fire or malfunction.
•  
Projection while lying on its side. 
Please avoid projection if the installation of the unit is 
done at an excessive angle of more tha
n 
±  30 
°. It may 
cause harm to the life of the lamp and color shading.
•   Please avoid projection at a location where the air vents 
or exhaust ports might get blocked.
 
Please choose a non-uniform cloth material for the screen. 
If you choose something uniform, like something with a 
checkered pattern, there might be interference with the 
pixel array of the D-ILA  components. One way to reduce 
the inte
rference pattern is to change the size of the screen, 
so that it will not be so noticeable. 
Inclination adjustment  
for this unit
How to adjust the vertical angle
Height and inclination of the unit (0 ~ 5mm) can be 
adjusted by rotating its feet. Lift the unit and adjust 
the four feet.
Installation environment
Please be careful to perform 
the installation at a certain 
distance from walls and 
other devices Please be careful when using
Please read the following carefully before the installation of this unit.
