Eye Safety Warnings
 
▀■   Avoid staring directly into the projector beam at all times.
▀■   Minimize standing facing into the beam. Keep your back 
to the beam as much as possible.
▀■ A stick or laser pointer is recommended to avoid the need 
for the user to enter the beam. 
▀■ Ensure that projectors are located out of the line of sight 
from the screen to the audience; this ensures that, when 
presenters look at the audience, they do not also have to 
stare at the projector lamp. The best way to achieve this 
is by ceiling-mounting rather than floor or table-mounting 
the projector.
▀■ When projector is used in a classroom, adequately super-
vise students when they are asked to point out something 
on the screen.
▀■ In order to minimize the lamp power needed, use room 
blinds to reduce ambient light levels.
