Projector 8064 User's Manual – Operating Guide Thank you for purchasing this projector. About this manual Various symbols are used in this manual. The meanings of these symbols are described below. WARNING This symbol indicates information that, if ignored, could possibly result in personal injury or even death due to incorrect handling.
Projector features This projector is used to project various computer signals as well as NTSC / PAL / SECAM video signals onto a screen. It requires just a little space for installation and gets a large image from short distance.
Handling while the projector is in a high temperature could cause a burn and/or malfunction to the projector. Before operating, make sure that the power switch is off, that the power cord is not plugged in, and that the projector is cool adequately.
Putting batteries WARNING ►Always handle the batteries with care and use them only as directed. Improper use may result in battery explosion, cracking or leakage, which could result in fire, injury and/or pollution of the surrounding environment. • Be sure to use only the batteries specified. Do not use batteries of different types at the same time.
• Since the remote control uses infrared light to send signals to the projector (Class1 LED), be sure to use the remote control in an area free from obstacles that could block the remote control’s output signal to the projector.
Disconnect all the connectors and adapters that were connected to the projector’s ports. Then slowly turn the projector so that the lens-side is facing up. Please be careful for a projector not to fall. While the projector is placed lens-side up, hold the projector.
• Don’t place the projector on a carpet, cushion or bedding. • Don’t place the projector in direct sunlight or near a hot object such as heater. • Put nothing about lens and vents of the projector. Put nothing on the projector.
