This	 remote	 control	 emits	 a	 laser	 beam	 from	 the	 laser	 light	 window.	 Press	 the	 LASER	 button	 to	 activate	 the	
laser	 pointer.	The	signal	 emission	 indicator	 lights	 red	 and	 the	red	 laser	 beam	 is	emitted.	If	the	LASER	 button	 is	
pressed	for	more	than	one	minute	or	if	it	is	released,	the	laser	light	goes	off.
The	laser	emitted	is	a	Class	II	laser.	Do	not	look	into	the	laser	light	window	or	point	the	laser	beam	at	yourself	or	
other	people.	The	following	is	the	caution	label	for	the	laser	beam.
CAUTION:		 Use	 of	 controls,	 adjustments	 or	 performance	 of	 procedures	 other	 than	 those	 specified	 herein	 may	
result	in	hazardous	radiation	exposure.	Never	look	directly	into	the	laser	light	window	while	a	laser	
is	emitted,	otherwise	eye	damage	may	result.	
The	caution	label	is	put	on	the	remote	control.

Installation
Connecting the AC Power Cord
This	projector	 uses	nominal	 input	voltages	 of	100-120	 V	or	
200–240	 V	AC	 and	 it	automatically	 selects	the	correct	 input	
voltage. 	It 	is 	designed 	to 	work 	with 	single-phase 	power	
systems 	having 	a 	grounded 	neutral 	conductor. 	To 	reduce	
the	 risk	 of	electrical	 shock,	do	not	 plug	 into	any	other	 type	of	
power	system.
If 	you 	are 	not 	sure 	of 	the 	type 	of 	power 	being 	supplied,	
consult	your	authorized	dealer	or	service	station.
Connect 	the 	projector 	with 	all 	peripheral 	equipment 	before	
turning	the	projector	on.
Note:
Unplug	the	 AC	power	cord	when	the	projector	is	not	
in	use.		When	this	projector	is	connected	to	an	outlet	
with	the	 AC	power	cord,	it	is	in	Stand-by	mode	and	
consumes	a	little	electric	power.
Connect 	the 	AC 	power 	cord 	(supplied) 	to 	the	
projector.
To	the	 AC	outlet.
(00 - 40 V AC)
NOTE ON THE POwER CORD
AC	power	cord	must	meet	requirement	of	the	country	where	you	use	the	projector.
Confirm	the	 AC	plug	type	with	the	chart	below	and	proper	 AC	power	cord	must	be	used.
