• Take the following precautions when handling the plug: Do not hold the plug with wet hands. Do not
insert the plug into a dusty outlet. Insert the plug firmly into the outlet. Do not pull the power cord when
disconnecting the plug; always be sure to hold the plug when disconnecting it. Do not overload wall
outlets, extension cords, or power strips. Failure to comply with these precautions could result in fire or
electric shock.
• Do not place the projector where the cord can be walked on. This may result in fraying or damage to
the plug.
• Unplug the projector from the wall outlet and allow to cool before cleaning. Use a dry cloth (or, for
stubborn dirt or stains, a moist cloth that has been wrung dry) for cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol
cleaners, any sprays containing flammable gas, or solvents such as alcohol, paint thinner, or benzine.
• Do not block the slots and openings in the projector case. They provide ventilation and prevent the
projector from overheating. If the vents are covered, the internal temperature could rise and cause a
fire. Do not place the projector in locations subject to high temperatures, such as near heating
equipment. Do not operate the projector on a sofa, rug, or other soft surface, or set it on top of loose
papers. Do not cover the projector with a blanket, curtain, or tablecloth. If you are setting up the
projector near a wall, leave at least 19.7 inches (50 cm) of space between the wall and the projector.
• Do not operate the projector in a closed-in cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Never allow objects of any kind to enter any openings in the projector. Do not leave objects, especially
flammable objects, near the projector. Do not place any containers of liquid on top of the unit. Never
spill liquid of any kind into the projector.
• Do not insert or drop metal, flammable, or foreign objects into the projector's vents or openings nor
leave them nearby. Doing so may result in fire, electric shock, or burns.
• If you are using two or more projectors side-by-side, leave enough space between the projectors to
allow for proper ventilation.
• You may need to clean the air filter and vent. A clogged air filter or vent can block ventilation needed
to cool the projector. Do not use canned air, or the gases may leave a residue.
• Follow the maintenance schedule for this projector. If the interior of the projector has not been cleaned
for a long time, dust may build up, which could cause fire or electric shock. Replace your air filter
periodically and contact your dealer to clean the interior of the projector, as needed.
• Do not store the projector outdoors for an extended length of time.
• Except as specifically explained in this manual, do not attempt to service this product yourself. Refer
all servicing to qualified personnel. Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous
voltages and other hazards.
