  Preface 
Projector Installation Notice 

  Place the projector in a horizontal position 
The tilt angle of the projector should not exceed 15  degrees, nor should the projector be installed in 
any way other than the desktop and ceiling mount, otherwise lamp life could decrease dramatically. 
     
   Allow at least 50 cm clearance around the exhaust vent. 
  
 
  
 
 
   Ensure that the intake vents do not recycle hot air from the exhaust vent. 
   When operating the projector in an enclosed space, ensure that the surrounding air temperature 
within the enclosure does not exceed 5 – 35°C while the projector is running, and the air intake and 
exhaust vents are unobstructed. 
   All enclosures should pass a certified thermal ev aluation to ensure that the projector does not 
recycle exhaust air, as this may  cause the device to shutdown even if the enclosure temperature is 
with the acceptable 5 – 35°C range.

Power Safety 
  Only use the supplied power cord. 
   Do not place anything on the powe r cord. Place the power cord where it will not be in the way of 
foot traffic. 
   Remove the batteries from the remote control when storing or not in use for a prolonged period. 
Replacing the Lamp 
Replacing the lamp can be hazardous if done incorrectly. See  Replacing the Projection Lamp on page 39 
for cle
ar and safe instructions for this procedure. Before replacing the lamp: 
   Unplug the power cord. 
   Allow the lamp to cool for about one hour. 
Caution: 
In rare cases the lamp bulb may burn out during  normal operation and cause glass dust or shards 
to be discharged outward from the rear exhaust vent. 
Do not inhale or do not touch glass dust or shards. Doing so could result in injury.  
Always keep your face away from the exhaust vent  so that you do not suffer from the gas and bro-
ken shards of the lamp.  
Cleaning the Projector 
  Unplug the power cord before cleaning. See  Cleaning the Projector page 42.
