Important Safeguards
These safety instructions are to ensure the long life of your projector and to prevent fire and shock. Please
read them carefully and heed all warnings.
Installation
•
•
Do not place the projector in the following conditions:
- on an unstable cart, stand, or table.
- near water, baths, or damp rooms.
- in direct sunlight, near heaters, or heat radiating appliances.
- in a dusty, smoky or steamy environment.
- on a sheet of paper, cloth, rugs, carpets, or any objects which are damaged or affected by heat.
If you wish to have the projector installed on the ceiling:
- Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
- The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure proper operation and reduce
the risk of bodily injury.
- In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the installation must be in
accordance with any local building codes.
- Please consult your dealer for more information.
• Do not use any other object than the projector’s sliding lens cover to
cover the lens while the projector is on. Doing so can cause the object to
get extremely hot, and possibly resulting in a fire or damage due to the
heat emitted from the light output.
WARNING
• Do not place any objects, which are easily affected by heat, in front of
the projector lens. Doing so could lead to the object melting from the
heat that is emitted from the light output.
ii
English ...
Important Information
Place the projector in a horizontal position
The tilt angle of the projector should not exceed 5 degrees, nor should the projector be installed in any way
other than the desktop and ceiling mount, otherwise lamp life could decrease dramatically.
Fire and Shock Precautions
• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the build-up of heat
inside your projector. Allow at least 4 inches (10cm) of space between your projector and a wall.
• Do not try to touch the exhaust vent as it can become heated while the projector is turned on and immedi-
ately after the projector is turned off.
• Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from falling into your projector. Do not at-
tempt to retrieve any objects that might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal objects such as a
wire or screwdriver into your projector. If something should fall into your projector, disconnect it immedi-
ately and have the object removed by a qualified service personnel.
• Do not place any objects on top of the projector.
• Do not touch the power plug during a thunderstorm. Doing so can cause electrical shock or fire.
• The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-240V AC 50/60 Hz. Ensure that your power
supply fits this requirement before attempting to use your projector.
• Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result.
• Keep any items (magnifying glass etc.) out of the light path of the projector. The light path being projected
from the lamp is extensive, therefore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out of the
lamp, can cause unpredictable outcome such as a fire or injury to the eyes.
• Do not block the light path between the light source and the lamp with any objects. Doing so could cause
the object to catch on fire.
• Do not place any objects, which are easily affected by heat, in front of the projector lamp or a projector
exhaust vent.
Doing so could lead to the object melting or getting your hands burned from the heat that is emitted from
the light output and exhaust.
• Handle the power cord carefully. A damaged or frayed power cord can cause electric shock or fire.
- Do not use any power cord other than the one supplied.
- Do not bend or tug the power cord excessively.
- Do not place the power cord under the projector, or any heavy object.
- Do not cover the power cord with other soft materials such as rugs.
- Do not heat the power cord.
- Do not handle the power plug with wet hands.
• Turn off the projector, unplug the power cord and have the projector serviced by a qualified service per-
sonnel under the following conditions:
- When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
- If liquid has been spilled into the projector, or if it has been exposed to rain or water.
- If the projector does not operate normally when you follow the instructions described in this user’s
manual.

A Lamp Characteristic
The projector has a high-pressure mercury lamp as a light source.
A lamp has a characteristic that its brightness gradually decreases with age. Also repeatedly turning the
lamp on and off will increase the possibility of its lower brightness.
CAUTION:
• DO NOT TOUCH THE LAMP immediately after it has been used. It will be extremely hot. Turn the
projector off and then disconnect the power cord. Allow at least one hour for the lamp to cool before
handling.
• When removing the lamp from a ceiling-mounted projector, make sure that no one is under the projec-
tor. Glass fragments could fall if the lamp has been burned out.
Note for US Residents
The lamp in this product contains mercury. Please dispose according to Local, State or Federal Laws.

What is HDCP/HDCP technology?
HDCP is an acronym for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. High bandwidth Digital Content Protec-
tion (HDCP) is a system for preventing illegal copying of video data sent over a High-Definition Multimedia
Interface (HDMI).
If you are unable to view material via the HDMI input, this does not necessarily mean the projector is not
functioning properly. With the implementation of HDCP, there may be cases in which certain content is pro-
tected with HDCP and might not be displayed due to the decision/intention of the HDCP community (Digital
Content Protection, LLC).
