Do not place anything near the projector as this may block its air vents. If the air vents are blocked, the internal temperature will increase. -Do not place the projector on a carpet or rug. If the vent is on the bottom, use the projector on a solid level surface and ensure the vent is not blocked. -Be sure to prevent foreign objects such as paper debris from entering the projector. -Leave enough distance (30 cm or more) around the projector. • Do not place the projector in a hot or humid environment. -Do not place the projector in a hot, cold, or humid environment. • Do not place the projector in a place where it will easily attract dust. -This may result in fire. • Never open any cover on the projector.

You may, however, see tiny black dots and/or bright colored dots (red, blue, or green) that continuously appear on the projector screen. This is a normal result of the manufacturing process and does not indicate a malfunction. • The remote control may not work in an environment where a lamp equipped with electronic ballasts or a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp is installed. Replace the lamp with an international standard lamp for the remote control to work normally. • To install to the ceiling, attach the ceiling-type bracket to the projector with M4 x 8 mm screws.
24PREPARATION Projection Distance per Screen Size 1 Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface, together with the PC or audio/video source. 2 Place the projector an appropriate distance away from the screen. The distance between the projector and the screen determines the actual size of the image. 3 Position the projector so that the lens is at a right angle to the scree\ n. If the projector is not at a right angle, the projected image will look distorted. To correct the distortion, use the keystone function.
