WARNING: Never look into the exhaust output. High luminance and UV radiation could result in
damage to the eye. The installation of an exhaust system is mandatory before operating the
projector.
To prevent fire hazard
• Do not place flammable or combustible materials near the projector!
• Barco large screen projection products are designed and manufactured to meet the most stringent safety
regulations. This projector radiates heat on its external surfaces and from ventilation ducts during normal
operation, which is both normal and safe. Exposing flammable or combustible materials into close
proximity of this projector could result in the spontaneous ignition of that material, resulting in a fire. For this
reason, it is absolutely necessary to leave an "exclusion zone" around all external surfaces of the projector
whereby no flammable or combustible materials are present. The exclusion zone must be not less than 40
cm (16") for all DLP Cinema projectors. The exclusion zone on the lens side must be at least 5 m. Do not
cover the projector or the lens with any material while the projector is in operation. Keep flammable and
combustible materials away from the projector at all times. Mount the projector in a well ventilated area
away from sources of ignition and out of direct sun light. Never expose the projector to rain or moisture. In
the event of fire, use sand, CO
Always have service performed on this projector by authorized Barco service personnel. Always insist on
genuine Barco replacement parts. Never use non-Barco replacement parts as they may degrade the safety
of this projector.
• Slots and openings in this equipment are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the
projector and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings
should never be blocked by placing the projector too close to walls, or other similar surface. This projector
should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This projector should not be placed in a
built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Projection rooms must be well ventilated or cooled in order to avoid build up of heat. It is necessary to vent
hot exhaust air from console to the outside of the building. The minimum exhaust airflow requirement is
6,65 m 3 /min (235 CFM).
• Let the projector cool completely before storing. Remove cord from the projector when storing.
• Heat sensitive materials should not be placed in the path of the exhausted air or on the lamp house.
To prevent battery explosion
• Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly installed.
• Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
• For disposal of used batteries, always consult federal, state, local and provincial hazardous waste disposal
rules and regulations to ensure proper disposal.
To prevent projector damage
• This projector has been designed for use with a specific lamp (house) type. See installation instructions for
its correct type.
• The air filters of the projector must be cleaned or replaced on regular base (a "clean" booth would be
monthly-minimum). Neglecting this could result in disrupting the air flow inside the projector, causing
overheating. Overheating may lead to the projector shutting down during operation.
• The projector must always be installed in a manner which ensures free flow of air into its air inlets and
unimpeded evacuation of the hot air exhausted from its cooling system.
• In order to ensure that correct airflow is maintained, and that the projector complies with Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC) requirements, it should always be operated with all of it's covers in place.
• Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product
and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should
never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should
never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. The device should not be placed in a built-in
installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Ensure that nothing can be spilled on, or dropped inside the projector. If this does happen, switch off and
unplug the mains supply immediately. Do not operate the projector again until it has been checked by
qualified service personnel.
• Do not block the projector cooling fans or free air movement around the projector. Loose papers or other
objects may not be nearer to the projector than 10 cm (4") on any side.
• Do not use this equipment near water.
or dry powder fire extinguishers. Never use water on an electrical fire.
