Always replace the fuse cover after 
changing the fuse.IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONSSave Original Packing Materials
The original shipping carton and packing materials will come in handy if you ever have to
ship your LCD projector. For maximum protection, repack the set as it was originally
packed at the factory.Moisture CondensationNever operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a warm location.
When the unit is exposed to such a change in temperature, moisture may condense on
the crucial internal parts. To prevent the unit from possible damage, do not use the unit for
at least 2 hours when there is an extreme or sudden change in temperature
.
Place and Manner of Installation•
Do not place in hot locations, such as near heating equipment.  Doing so could cause
malfunction, and shorten the life of the LCD panel.
• Avoid locations with oil or cigarette smoke.  Doing so will dirty the LCD panel and other
optical parts, shortening their lives, and darkening the screen.
• Do not place slantwise in angle of 20 ° or more.  Doing so could shorten the life of the
lamp.
• Using this instrument near a TV or radio may cause intereference to the images or audio
sound. If this happens, move it away from the TV or radio.
• Moving the projector from a low-temperature room to a high-temperature room may
cause condensation on the lens or internal parts in the instrument. If you continue to use
it in that situation, the malfunction may result. Ensure to wait until the condensation
naturally disappears.
• In a high altitude location where air is thin, cooling efficiency of the\
 scanner is reduced so
use it with the ambient temperature being lowered.POWER SUPPLY CORD SELECTION

IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS  (Continued)
Avoid Volatile LiquidDo not use volatile liquids, such as an insect spray, near the unit.  Do not leave rubber or
plastic products touching the unit for a long time.  They will leave marks on the finish.
If cleaning with a chemically saturated cloth, be sure to follow the products precautions.LCD PanelThe life of the LCD panel is limited.  Take care over the points below so as to use the
panel for years.
•To prolong the life of this panel, never fail to turn the power off when the panel is not in
use and make sure that the lamp has gone out.  The state of the lamp being extinguished
helps enhance the effect of energy saving.
•If the air filter is stained and is clogged up, the main unit inner temperature rises.  As a
result, the life of the LCD is shortened and a malfunction may also occur.
Clean the air filter from time to time and replace it regularly.  It is recommended that this
replacement be done at the time of replacing a lamp.  (Ask a dealer where the unit was
purchased or your nearby service station about an air filter for replacement.)
In the spaces provided below, record the Model and Serial No. located at the bottom of
your LCD projector.Model No. Serial  No.
