Usage Guidelines
 Do not look directly into the projection lens when the 
projector is turned on. The bright light may harm your 
eyes.
 Do not block the grills on the projector. Restricting the 
air flow can cause it to overheat and turn off. If this 
happens, you must wait a minute before attempting to 
turn it back 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...
