ser entregues ao estabelecimento comercial 
ou rede de assistência técnica autorizada.
Cobrir os terminais positivo (+) e negativo (-) com uma fita isolante adesiva, antes de depositar numa caixa 
destinada para o recolhimento. O contato entre partes metálicas pode causar vazamentos, gerar calor , romper 
a blindagem e produzir fogo. (Fig. 1)
Fig. 1
Como isolar os terminais
Não desmonte, não remova o invólucro, nem amasse a bateria. O gás liberado pela bateria pode irritar a 
garganta, danificar o lacre do invólucro ou o vazamento provocar calor , ruptura da blindagem e produzir fogo 
devido ao curto circuito dos terminais. Não incinere nem aqueça as baterias, elas não podem ficar expostas a 
temperaturas superiores a 100
  °C (212   °F). O gás liberado pela bateria pode irritar a garganta, danificar o lacre 
do invólucro ou o vazamento provocar calor, ruptura da blindagem e produzir fogo devido ao curto circuito dos 
terminais provocado internamente.
Evite o contato com o liquido que vazar das baterias. Caso isto ocorra, lave bem a parte afetada com bastante 
água. Caso haja irritação, consulte um médico.

Chapter 1 Preparation
This chapter describes things you need to know or check before using the projector.  
						

							Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for use
18 - ENGLISH
Precautions for use
Cautions when transporting
 fBefore using the projector , remove the dust sponge from the mounting portion of the projection lens and store it for the 
future use. When transporting the projector, remove the projection lens before attaching the dust sponge. Otherwise dust will 
accumulate inside and may cause malfunctions.
 f When transporting the projector

, hold it securely by its bottom and avoid excessive vibration and impacts.  They may damage 
the internal components and result in malfunctions.
 f Do not transport the projector with the adjustable feet extended. Doing so may damage the adjustable feet.
Cautions when installing
 rAfter attaching the projection lens, be sure to attach the lens mount cover .
Otherwise dust will accumulate inside and may cause malfunctions.
 rDo not set up the projector outdoors.
The projector is designed for indoor use only.
 rDo not set up the projector in the following locations.
 fPlaces where vibration and impacts occur such as in a car or vehicle: Doing so may cause damage to internal components 
or malfunction.
 fNear the exhaust of an air conditioner: Depending on the conditions of use, the screen may fluctuate in rare cases due 
to the heated air from the air exhaust port or the hot or cooled air . Make sure that the exhaust from the projector or other 
equipment, or the air from the air conditioner does not blow toward the front of the projector .
 fPlaces with sharp temperature fluctuations such as near lights (studio lamps): Doing so may shorten the life of the lamp, or 
result in deformation of the outer case due to heat, which may cause malfunctions.
The operating environment temperature of the projector should be between 0

  °C (32   °F) and 45   °C (113   °F) when using it at 
elevations lower than 1
  400   m (4   593') above sea level, and between 0   °C (32   °F) and 40   °C (104   °F) when using it at high 
altitudes (between 1
  400   m (4   593') and 2   700   m (8   858') above sea level).
If you use the smoke cut filter, the operating environment temperature should be between 0
  °C (32   °F) and 35   °C (95   °F). 
However, it cannot be used at high altitudes.
 f Near high-voltage power lines or near motors: Doing so may interfere with the operation of the projector .
 fPlaces where there is high-power laser equipment: Directing a laser beam onto the projection lens surface causes damage 
to the DLP

 chips.
 rBe sure to ask a specialized technician or your dealer when installing t\
he projector on 
a ceiling.
The optional Ceiling mount bracket is required.
Model No.: ET
-

PKD510H (for high ceilings), ET
-
 PKD510S (for low ceilings)
 rFocus adjustment
The high clarity projection lens is thermally affected by the light from the light source, making the focus unstable in the period 
just after switching on the power. Wait at least 30 minutes with the image projected before adjusting the lens focus.
 rMake sure to set [HIGH  ALTITUDE MODE] to [ON] when using the projector at 
elevations between 1   400   m (4   593') and 2   700   m (8   858') above sea level.
Failure to do so may shorten the life of the components and result in malfunctions.
 rMake sure to set [HIGH  ALTITUDE MODE] to [OFF] when using the projector at 
elevations lower than 1   400   m (4   593') above sea level.
Failure to do so may shorten the life of the components and result in malfunctions.
 rDo not install the projector at elevations of 2   700   m (8   858') or higher above sea level.
Doing so may shorten the life of the components and result in malfunctions.
 rDo not use the projector tilted to the right or left.
Using the projector at a vertical angle that exceeds 15° may reduce product life or result in malfunction.  
						

							Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for use
ENGLISH - 19
 rDo not install and use the projector in portrait setting.
 rCautions when setting up the projector
 fWhen installing the projector at the section other than the floor by using the adjustable feet, use six screw holes for ceiling 
mount for fixing the projector (as shown in the figure).
(Screw diameter: M6, tapping depth inside the projector: 30
  mm (1-3/16"), torque: 4 ± 0.5   N·m)
 fMake a clearance of at least 5

  mm (3/16") between the projector bottom and the setting surface by inserting spacers 
(metallic) between them.
Screw holes for ceiling mount 
(M6)

Clearance (5 mm (3/16) or longer)
Ensure the inflow of air into the air intake port. Otherwise the 
projector may not work properly. Spacer
Mount

 f
The adjustable feet can be removed if not needed in the installation. However , do not use the screw holes where the 
adjustable feet were removed to fix the projector in place.
Also, insert only the screws that are specified in the user manual of the optional accessories into the screw holes of the 
adjustable feet. Failure to do so may cause damage to the projector .
 fUse the adjustable feet only for the floor standing installation and for adjusting the angle. Using them for other purposes may 
damage the projector

.
 fDo not stack projectors on top of each other

.
 fDo not use the projector supporting it by the top.
 fDo not use the projector tilted at an angle that exceeds ±15° from the horizontal plane.
 fDo not block the ventilation ports (intake and exhaust) of the projector .
