Precautions with regard to safety WARNING If a problem occurs (such as no image ) or if you notice smoke or a strange smell coming from the projector, turn off the power and disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet. • Do not continue to use the projector in such cases, otherwise fire or electric shocks could result. • Cheque that no more smoke is coming out, and then contact an Authorized Service Centre for repairs. • Do not attempt to repair the projector yourself, as this can be dangerous.
Precautions with regard to safety Do not place liquid containers on top of the projector. • If water spills onto the projector or gets inside it, fire or electric shocks could result. • If any water gets inside the projector, contact an Authorized Service Centre. Do not insert any foreign objects into the projector. • Do not insert any metal objects or flammable objects into the projector or drop them onto the projector, as doing so can result in fire or electric shocks.
Do not look into the lens while the projector is being used. • Strong light is emitted from the projector’s lens. If you look directly into this light, it can hurt and damage your eyes. Do not bring your hands or other objects close to the air outlet port. • Heated air comes out of the air outlet port. Do not bring your hands or face, or objects which cannot withstand heat. Replacement of the lamp unit should only be carried out by a qualified technician. • The lamp unit has high internal pressure.
Precautions on handling Precautions on transport The projection lens is susceptible to vibrations and impacts. Care should be taken to protect the lens from vibrations and impacts when transporting.
