Additional Safety Information
•After transporting the projection TV directly from a cold to a
warm location, or if the room temperature has changed
suddenly, pictures may be blurred or show poor colour over
portions of the picture. This is because moisture has
condensed on the mirrors or lenses inside the projection TV.
Let the moisture evaporate before using the projection TV.
•To obtain a clear picture, do not expose the screen to direct
illumination or direct sunlight. If possible, use spot
lighting directed down from the ceiling.
