Pulling the cable may break the wires or cause fire or electric shock. Always hold the plug itself when pulling it out of the power outlet. · Do not damage the power cable. If the power cord is damaged (e.g. the core is exposed or cut), contact the sales office of purchase.(charged) it could cause fire or electric shock if you continue using the damaged power cord. E-3 · Do not look through the lens. · Do not look through the lens into the projector during operation. The powerful rays passing through the lens could damage the eyes. · Do not put the projector in unstable places. · Do not put the projector in unstable places such as on unstable desks or slopes. Doing so could cause the projector to drop or turn over, resulting in injury. · Do not use any voltages other than specified. · Do not use any voltages other than specified. Doing so could cause fire or electric shock. · Do not disassemble the alkaline batteries · Do not short-circuit, disassemble, or burn the alkaline batteries. Doing so could cause the alkaline solution to leak, which could cause eye injury, as well as cause a fire or damage the surrounding area due to heat or explosion. If the alkaline solution touches skin or clothes, wash them with clean water. If it get into eyes, immediately wash them with clean water and see a doctor. · Do not bump the glass surface · Do not bump the glass surface over the scanner. Doing so may break the glass, resulting in injury. · Do not touch the air vents or lamp cover · The air vents, lamp cover, and peripheral surfaces may be hot during operation or just after the light is turned off. Do not touch those for a long time. · Do not block the lens front · Do not block the lens front during operation. The powerful rays passing through the lens may cause fire or burns if you put anything in front of the lens or block the lens with your hand during operation. CAUTION · Installation · Avoid installing the projector in places where it may be exposed to: - Strong vibrations - Soot or steam - Direct sunlight or near a heater (35°C/95°F or higher) - High humidity or dust - Extreme cold (0°C/32°F or lower) - Strong magnetic or electric field generated from a nearby appliance - Wobbling on an unstable surface · Do not block the air vents. · Do not block the air vents with cloth or an object. When you put anything around the unit, be sure to ensure a space of 10 cm/4 inches or more between the unit and the air vent. Be sure to prevent paper or cloth from blocking the air vent at the bottom of the unit. If blocked, the internal temperature may increase, resulting in malfunctions. · Do not bump the projector. · Avoid bumping the projector when moving or handling. Shocks can cause damage. E-4 · Care of the projector · To prevent risk of accidents, always disconnect the power plug before cleaning the projector. · Clean the lens surface with a commercial blower or lens cleaning paper.

For particularly dirty spots, soak the cloth in a neutral detergent mixed in water, wring out well and wipe off the dirt, then use a dry cloth to wipe dry. · Do not wipe the projector with any volatile solvent such as benzine or thinner. Solvents can cause surface deformation or flaking of the paint. If using an impregnated cloth, follow the instructions. · Avoid scratching the glass surface. · Take care not to scratch the glass surface of the scanner with hard or pointed objects. Scratches on the glass may distort the projected image. · Batteries · When inserting batteries in the remote control, note the polarity (plus and minus signs) and insert correctly as indicated. Inserting a battery in a wrong direction can cause rupture or leakage, and could result in fire and injury or soil the surrounding area. · Do not use batteries other than the type specified for the equipment. Do not use a new battery and an old battery together. Incorrect battery usage could result in rupture or leakage, and could cause fire and injury. · Do not heat, break open, burn, or immerse the batteries. Battery rupture or leakage could cause fire and injury. · Servicing and cleaning · Have the internal components cleaned by a retailer about once a year. There is a risk of fire or faulty operation if the inside of the projector gets dusty and is not cleaned for a long time. For best results, the projector should be serviced before the wet season brings damp conditions. Cleaning charges are at the discretion of the retailer. · If not using the projector for a long period: · If you do not plan to use the projector for a long time, disconnect the power cord for safety. · Disposal · Follow the recommendations of your local authority when disposing of the projector. · Transporting the projector · Use the special packaging when transporting the projector. The manufacturer cannot accept responsibility in the event of damage or accident if other packaging is used. · Use the special packaging no more than two times. Repeated usage reduces the shock absorbency of the packaging and can lead to damage or accident. · Contact the retailer if you require new packaging. · Lamp implosion · An AC type New Super High pressure lamp is used in this projector and it is rare for the lamp to explode during use. The lamp is also designed to forcibly turn off because there is a high possibility that the lamp will break if it is used beyond the lamp usage of 1500 hours (Refer to pages E-54 and E-55). E-5 Note the following things · A noise occurs because the internal pressure of the New Super High pressure lamp gets extremely high. The unit is designed so that no pieces of glass come out of it when the lamp explodes. · However, the gas inside of the lamp can escape and looks like white smoke. It will not cause any fire. Remedy · If a lamp explodes in a product, there will be pieces of lamp inside. Do not replace the lamp. Return the product to the sales office or agent of purchase. Even though the lamp has exploded, never try to replace the lamp by yourself. The lamp pieces could cause injury. · Replacing the lamp · Be sure to turn the lamp off and disconnect the power cord when the fan stops, and wait an hour or more before replacing the lamp. Replacing the lamp during operation or just after the power is turned off may cause burns due to heat. Refer to "Lamp Unit Replacement" on page E-54 for the procedure. · Replacing / cleaning the air filter · Be sure to disconnect the power cord when the cooling fan stops before removing the air filter. Removing the air filter while the cooling fan is rotating could cause a burn. Refer to "Cleaning the Air Filter" on page E-56 for the procedure. · Avoiding malfunctions and accidents · Adjust the Adjustable feet to keep the projector horizontal. Using the projector in a tilted status may cause injury if it turns over. Refer to "Adjusting the Tilt" on page E-18 for the adjusting procedure. · Do not disassemble the manganese batteries · Do not short-circuit, disassemble, or burn the manganese batteries. Doing so could cause the batteries to generate heat or explode due to the leaked solution, resulting in fire, injury, or damages to the surrounding area. · Do not do the followings · Do not put anything heavy on the projector. · Do not step on the projector, rack, or stand.
