Please go to this site for information on how to return your products for proper disposal.
Important Safety Instructions Follow these safety instructions when setting up and using the projector: • Do not look into the lens when the projector is on. The bright light can damage your eyes. Avoid standing in front of the projector so the bright light does not shine into your eyes. • Do not place the projector on an unstable cart, stand, or table. • Do not operate the projector on its side, or while tilted to one side. Do not tilt the projector more than 30° forward or back.
• Never allow objects of any kind to enter any openings in the projector. Do not leave objects, especially flammable objects, near the projector. Never spill liquid of any kind into the projector. • If you are using two or more projectors side-by-side, leave at least 2 feet (60 cm) of space between the projectors to allow for proper ventilation. • You may need to clean the air filter and vent. A clogged air filter or vent can block ventilation needed to cool the projector.
Doing so may cause an unstable display and could lead to projector damage. Do not use or store the projector where it may be exposed to sudden changes in temperature. • Do not store the projector outside of the required temperature range of 14 to 140 °F (–10 to 60 °C) or in direct sunlight for long periods of time. Doing so may cause damage to the case. • Do not place anything that can become warped or damaged by heat near the exhaust vents.
