Important Information Safety Cautions WARNING Handling the power cord BE SURE TO DO • Please use the power cord supplied with this projector. If the supplied power cord does not satisfy requirements of your country’s safety standard, and voltage and current for your region, make sure to use the power cord that conforms to and satisfies them. • The power cord you use must be approved by and comply with the safety standards of your country. Please refer to the page 133 about the power cord specification.
Important Information Installing the Projector BE SURE TO DO PROHIBITION DO NOT WET UNPLUG THE POWER CORD • This projector is designed to be used with a 100–240 V AC, 50/60 Hz power supply. Before using the projector, check that the power supply to which the projector is to be connected meets these requirements. • Use a power outlet as the projector’s power supply. Do not connect the projector directly to electrical light wiring. Doing so is dangerous.
Important Information Installing suspended from the ceiling CAUTION • Should special works be required, for example to suspend the projector from the ceiling, consult your dealer. Never try to install the projector yourself in such cases. The projector could drop and cause injury. Suspending the projector from the ceiling requires sufficient ceiling strength to support the projector, and the building standards laws in your particular country must be followed.
Important Information About the projector’s light source PROHIBITION • Do not look into the projector’s lens. Strong light that could damage your eyes is projected when the projector is operating. Be especially careful when children are around. • Do not look at the projected light using optical devices (magnifying glasses, reflectors, etc.). Doing so could result in vision impairment. • Check that there is no one looking at the lens within the projection range before turning on the projector.
Important Information CAUTION Connecting the power cord to earth BE SURE TO DO • This equipment is designed to be used in the condition of the power cord connected to earth. If the power cord is not connected to the earth, it may cause electric shock. Please make sure the power cord is earthed properly. Do not use a 2-core plug converter adapter.
Important Information Handling batteries PROHIBITION • Handle batteries with caution. Failure to do so could lead to fire, injury or contamination of the surroundings. - Do not short-circuit or take apart batteries or dispose of them in flames. - Do not use batteries other than those specified. - Do not use new batteries together with old ones. - When inserting batteries, pay attention to the polarities (+ and − directions), and be sure to insert them as indicated.
