Caution:
• Placing the projector directly on a carpet impairs
ventilation by the fans, causing damage or failure.
Put a hard board under the projector to facilitate
ventilation.
• Place the projector at least 50 cm (or 20 inch)
away from the wall to prevent the air inlet grille
and the air outlet grilles that emit hot air from
being blocked.
• Do not use the projector in the following locations
and manners, which may cause fire or electric
shock.
• In a dusty or humid place.
• In a sideways or upside-down position.
• Near a heater.
• In an oily, smoky, or damp place such as a
kitchen.
• In direct sunlight.
• Where the temperature rises high, such as in a
closed car.
• Where the temperature is lower than 41 °F (or
+5˚C) or higher than 95 °F (or 35˚C).
Important:
• Do not apply force to the lens, because the lens
may be damaged.
