Allow a minimum of 60 seconds to elapse after turning off the pro-
jector. Then turn off the main power switch, disconnect the power
cable and allow 60 minutes to cool the projector before replacing
the lamp.
Fire and Shock Precautions
1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unob-
structed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your projector. Allow
at least 3 inches (10 cm) of space between your projector and a
wall.
2. Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from
falling into your projector.
What's in the Box?
Do not attempt to retrieve any objects that might fall into your pro-
jector. Do not insert any metal objects such as a wire or screwdriver
into your projector. If something should fall into your projector, dis-
connect it immediately and have the object removed by a qualified
NEC service personnel.
Make sure your box contains everything listed. If any pieces are miss-
ing, contact your dealer.
Please save the original box and packing materials if you ever need to
ship your VT660K/VT460K/VT560 Projector.
3. Do not place any liquids on top of your projector.
4. Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage
to your eyes could result.
5. Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the
projector. The light being projected from the lens is extensive, there-
fore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out
of the lens, can cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury
to the eyes.

The infrared signal operates by line-of-sight up to a distance of about
22 feet/7 m and within a 60-degree angle of the remote sensor on the
projector cabinet.
The projector will not respond if there are objects between the re-
mote control and the sensor, or if strong light falls on the sensor.
Weak batteries will also prevent the remote control from properly
operating the projector.

If you press and hold the SELECT GHFE button while installing new
batteries, the remote control may fail to work properly.
Should this happen, remove the batteries and then install them again
without touching the SELECT button.

WARNING
Reflecting the Image
*
Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done by a quali-
fied technician. Contact your NEC dealer for more information.
Using a mirror to reflect your projector's image enables you to enjoy a
much larger image. Contact your NEC dealer if you need a mirror. If
you're using a mirror and your image is inverted, use the MENU and
SELECT buttons on your projector cabinet or your remote control to
correct the orientation. (See page E-27.)
*
Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
•
Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If the projector falls
to the ground, you can be injured and the projector severely dam-
aged.
•
Do not use the projector where temperatures vary greatly. The pro-
jector must be used at temperatures between 32˚F (0˚C) and 95˚F
(35˚C).
•
•
Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or smoke. This will
harm the screen image.
Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your projector so
heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents on the side or the front of
the projector.

Eco mode) or longer, the LAMP indicator in the cabinet will blink red
and the message will appear. Even though the lamp may still be work-
ing, replace it at 2000 (up to 3000 hours in Eco mode) hours to maintain
optimal projector performance.
Secure it in place with the two screws.
Be sure to tighten the screws.
CAUTION
•
DO NOT TOUCH THE LAMP immediately after it has been used.

DO NOT REMOVE ANY SCREWS except the lamp cover screw
and two lamp case screws. You could receive an electric shock.
The projector will turn off and go into stand by mode after 2100
(up to 3100 hours in Eco mode) hours of service. If this hap-
pens, be sure to replace the lamp. If you continue to use the
lamp after 2000 hours (up to 3000 hours in Eco mode) of use,
the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass may be scat-
tered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass
may cause injury. If this happens, contact your NEC dealer for
lamp replacement.
4. Reattach the lamp cover.
Tighten the lamp cover screw.
Be sure to tighten the screw.
