This device complies with safety regulations for Information Technology Equipment for use
in an office environment. Before using the device for the first time, please read the safety
instructions thoroughly.
This user guide contains important information about safety precautions and the set-up and
use of the projector. Please read the manual carefully before you operate the projector.
Use only the cables and cords supplied with the projector or original replacement cables.
Using other cables or cords may lead to malfunction and permanent damage of the unit.
Always use 3-prong / grounded power cord to ensure proper grounding of the unit. Never
use 2-prong power cords, as this is dangerous and could lead to electrical shock.
Never open the unit. The projector contains no user serviceable parts. Refer all repairs to
qualified personnel only. Make sure that no objects enter into the vents and openings of the
set.
Do not spill any liquids on the projector or into the vents or openings of the unit.
Always remove lens cap before switching on the projector. If the lens cap is not removed,
it may melt due to the high energy light emitted through the lens. Melting the lens cap may
permanently damage the surface of the projection lens.
Do not look into the projection lens when the projector is switched on. The strong light may
permanently damage sight. Do not look into the laser beam when activated on the remote
control. Laser light may permanently damage sight.
Do not point laser beam at people or animals.
Only place the projector on a stable surface, or mount it securely using an approved ceiling-
mount.
Do not drop the projector.
Always operate the projector according to the rotation guidelines. Operating the unit
in other positions may reduce lamp life significantly, and may lead to overheating,
resulting in malfunctioning.
Always allow ample airflow through the projector. Never block any of the air vents. Never
cover the unit in any way while running. Allow for sufficient distance to walls and ceilings to
avoid overheating.
Minimum safety distance to any side of the unit is 50 cm / 20" in any direction.
Hot air is exhausted from the rear vent. Do not place objects that are sensitive to heat nearer
than 50cm / 20" to the exhaust vent.
The projector is designed for indoor use only. Never operate the unit outdoors.
Do not operate the projector outside its temperature and humidity specifications, as this may
result in overheating and malfunctioning.
Connecting sources to a powered projector may result in product failure. It is recom-
mended that the power cable connector (projector-end) or the mains power socket
are accessible while the product is in use to enable mains power to be disconnected
or switched off when connecting source devices. This should be considered during
product installation.
