General Safety Information 
 Do  not open  the  unit case. Aside  from  the projection  lamp, there  are  no  user-serviceable  parts  in 
the unit. For  servicing,  contact qualified  service  personnel. 
 Follow  all warnings  and  cautions  in this manual  and  on the  unit case. 
 The  projection  lamp  is extremely  bright  by design. To  avoid  damage  to eyes, do not look into  the 
lens when  the lamp  is on.  
 Do  not place  the unit on  an unstable  surface,  cart, or  stand. 
 Avoid  using  the system near  water, in direct  sunlight, or  near  a heating  device. 
 Do  not place  heavy  objects such as books or bags  on  the unit.      
						

							–iii – 
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,  and  may lead  to other unpredictable  damages. 
     
 Allow  at least 50  cm clearance  around  the exhaust  vent. 
    
   
 
 Ensure  that the intake vents do  not recycle hot air  from  the exhaust  vent. 
 W hen  operating  the projector  in an enclosed  space, ensure  that the surrounding  air  temperature 
within  the enclosure  does not exceed operation  temperature while  the  projector  is running,  and  the 
air  intake and  exhaust vents  are  unobstructed. 
 All enclosures  should  pass a certified  thermal  evaluation  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 operation temperature range.

Verify Installation  Location 
 To  supply  power,  the  3-blade  (with  earthing  lead)  socket should  be  used to ensure  proper 
grounding  and  equalized  ground  potential  for  all  of the  equipment  in the Projector  System. 
 The  power  code provided  with the Projector  should  be  used. In  case of any  missing item, other 
qualified  3-blade  (with earthing  lead)  power  cord can  be used  as substitution; however,  do  not use 
2-blade  power  cord. 
 Verify  if the voltage  is stable,  grounded  properly  and  there  is no electricity leakage. 
 Measure  total power  consumption  which  should  not higher  the safety capacity and  avoid  safety 
issue and  short circuit. 
 Turn  on  Altitude Mode  when  located in high  altitude  areas 
 The  projector  can  only be installed  upright  or  inverted.  
 W hen installation the  bracket, make sure  the weight  limit is not exceed  and  firmly secured. 
 Avoid  installing  near  air  conditioner  duct or subwoofer. 
 Avoid  installing  at high temperature,  insufficient  cooling and  heavy  dust locations. 
 Keep  your  product  away  from fluorescent  lamps to avoid  malfunction 
caused  by IR  interference 
 The  VGA IN  connector  should  be connected  to the VGA IN  port. Note  that it should  be  inserted 
tightly, with  the screws on  both sides securely  fastened  to ensure  proper  connection  of  the signal 
wire  for  achieving  optimal display effect. 
 The  AUDIO  IN  connector  should  be  connected  to the AUDIO  IN  port  and  CANNOT  be connected 
to AUDIO  OUT  or other  ports  like BNC,  RCA;  otherwise,  it will  lead  to mute  output  and  even 
DAMAGE  the port. 
 Install  the projector  above  200cm  to avoid  damage. 
 The  power  cord and  signal  cable  should  be connected  before  power  on the  projector.  During  the 
projector  starting and  operating  process, DO  NOT  insert or  remove  the signal  cable  or the power 
cord  to avoid  damaging  the  projector. 
Cooling notes 
Air outle t 
 Make sure  the air  outlet is 50cm  clear of  any obstruction  to ensure  proper  cooling. 
 Air outlet location  should  not be  in front  of  the lens  of other  projector  to avoid  causing illusions. 
 Keep  the outlet at least 100cm away  from  the inlets of  other  projectors 
 The  projector  generates  a massive  amount  of  heat  during  use. The  internal  fan  dissipates the heat 
of  the projector  when  shutting  down,  and  such process may continue  for  a certain period.  After  the 
project  enters  STANDBY  MODE  status, press the  AC power  button  to turn  off  the projector  and 
remove  the power  cord.  DO  NOT  remove  the power  cord  during  the  shutdown  process,  as it may 
cause damage  to the projector.  In the  meantime,  the delayed  heat  radiating  will also affect  the 
service  life  of  the projector.  The  shutdown  process may vary  depending  on the  model  used. 
W hatever  the case may be, be  sure to disconnect  the power  cord  till after  the projector  enters  the 
STANDBY  status. 
Air inle t 
 Make sure  there  is no  object blocking  air input  within  30 cm. 
 Keep  the inlet away  from  other  heat sources 
 Avoided  heavy  dust area  
						

							–v – 
Power Safety 
 Only use the  supplied  power  cord. 
 Do  not place  anything  on the  power  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 
Repl acing  the  lamp  can  be  h azar dous  if  do ne  incor rectly.  See Replacin g  the  Projection  Lam p on  pa ge 63 
for  clear  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  k eep your face away  from the exhaust vent so that you do not suffer from the gas and 
brok en shards of the lamp.  
Cleaning the Projector 
 Unplug  the power  cord  before  cleaning.  See Cleaning  the  Projector page 66. 
 Allow  the lamp to cool for  about  one  hour.
