Doing so can cause damage to the projector: * While the Hour Glass icon appears. * While the message "Please wait a moment." 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 orange glow). * Immediately after the cooling fan stops working (The cooling fan continues to work for 90 seconds after the projector is turned off with the POWER button). * While the POWER and the STATUS indicators are alternately flashing.

Installation

1. For best results, use your projector in a darkened room. 2. Place the projector on a flat, level surface in a dry area away from dust and moisture. 3. Do not place your projector in direct sunlight, near heaters or heat radiating appliances. 4. Exposure to direct sunlight, smoke or steam can harm internal components. 5. Handle your projector carefully. Dropping or jarring can damage internal components. 6. Do not place heavy objects on top of the projector. 7. If you wish to have the projector installed on the ceiling: a. Do not attempt to install the projector yourself. b. The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure proper operation and reduce the risk of bodily injury. c. In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the installation must be in accordance with any local building codes. d. Please consult your dealer for more information.

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.

Lamp Replacement

To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page E-49. Be sure to replace the lamp when the message "The lamp has reached the end of its usable life. Please replace the lamp.!!" appears.
