Fire and Shock Precautions
1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your projector. Allow at least 3 inches (10 cm) of space between your projector and a wall. 2. Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from falling into your projector. Do not attempt to retrieve any objects that might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal objects such as a wire or screwdriver into your projector. If something should fall into your projector, disconnect it immediately and have the object removed by a qualified NEC service personnel. 3. Do not place any liquids on top of your projector. Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result. Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the projector. The light being projected from the lens is extensive, therefore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out of the lens, can cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury to the eyes. Do not cover the lens with the supplied lens cap or equivalent while the projector is on. Doing so can lead to melting of the cap and possibly burning your hands due to the heat emitted from the light output. Do not look into the laser pointer while it is on and do not point the laser beam at another person. Serious injury could result.

Power Supply

1. The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-120 or 200-240 V 50/60 Hz AC. Ensure that your power supply fits this requirement before attempting to use your projector. 2. Handle the power cable carefully and avoid excessive bending. A damaged cord can cause electric shock or fire. 3. If the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time, disconnect the plug from the power outlet.

Cleaning

1. Unplug the projector before cleaning. 2. Clean the cabinet periodically with a damp cloth. If heavily soiled, use a mild detergent. Never use strong detergents or solvents such as alcohol or thinner. 3. Use a blower or lens paper to clean the lens, and be careful not to scratch or mar the lens.
Do not unplug the power cable from the wall outlet under any one of the following circumstances. Doing so can cause damage to the projector: While the Hour Glass icon appears. While the message "Please wait a little." appears. This message will be displayed after the projector is turned off. Immediately after the power cable is plugged into the wall outlet (the POWER indicator has not changed to a steady amber glow). Immediately after the cooling fan stops working (The cooling fan continues to work for ONE minute after the projector is turned off with the POWER button). While the POWER and the STATUS indicators are alternately flashing.

Getting Started

The fastest way to get started is to take your time and do everything right the first time. Take a few minutes now to review the users manual. This may save you time later on. At the beginning of each section of the manual youll find an overview. If the section doesnt apply, you can skip it.

What's in the Box?

Make sure your box contains everything listed. If any pieces are missing, contact your dealer. Please save the original box and packing materials if you ever need to ship your MultiSync MT1055/MT1050/MT850 Projector.
