E-2 IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Important Safeguards These safety instructions are to ensure the long life of the unit and to prevent fire and shock. Please read them carefully and heed all warnings. Installation · · · · · · For best results, use the unit in a darkened room. Place the unit on a flat, level surface in a dry area away from dust and moisture. Do not place the unit in direct sunlight, near heaters or heat radiating appliances. Exposure to direct sunlight, smoke or steam can harm internal components. Handle the unit carefully. Dropping or jarring can damage internal components. Do not place heavy objects on top of the unit. Power Supply · The unit is designed to operate on a power supply of 100 - 240 V 50/60 Hz AC. Ensure that your power supply fits these requirements before attempting to use the unit. · Handle the power cable carefully and avoid excessive bending. A damaged cord can cause electric shock or fire. · Disconnect the power cable (main's lead) from the power outlet after using the unit. Before disconnecting the power cable, make sure that the STANDBY indicator lights in amber (not blinking or in green). Cleaning · Disconnect the power cable (main's lead) from the unit. · Clean the cabinet of the unit periodically with a damp cloth. If heavily soiled, use a mild detergent. Never use strong detergents or solvents such as alcohol or thinner. · Use a blower or lens paper to clean the lens, and be careful not to scratch or mar the lens. · Clean the ventilation slots and speaker grills on the unit periodically using a vacuum cleaner. If accumulated dust blocks the ventilation slots, the unit will overheat, which may cause the unit to malfunction. Use a soft brush attachment when using the vacuum cleaner. Do not use a hard attachment, such as a crevice tool, to prevent the damage to the unit. Lamp Replacement · Be sure to replace the lamp when the Status indicator comes on. If you continue to use the lamp after 2000 hours of usage, the lamp will turn off. Fire and Shock Precautions · Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the buildup of heat inside the unit. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches) of space between the unit and walls. · Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from falling into the unit. Do not attempt to retrieve any objects that fell into the unit. Do not insert any metal objects such as a wire or screwdriver into the unit. If something should fall into the unit, immediately disconnect the power cable from the unit and have the object removed by a qualified PLUS service person. · Do not place any liquids on top of the unit. Carrying around When carrying the unit around, please use the storage case that comes with it and, to protect the lens from scratches, always shut the Iris Lens Cover. Also, do not subject the unit to strong mechanical shock. CAUTION ­ HOT! The area around the exhaust vents is hot during and immediately after image projection. To avoid burns, keep your hands away from this area. Wait until the exhaust vents area cools off before touching it. Do not look into the lens while the unit is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result. E-3 Major Features Evolution of the Best Seller Mobile Projector The ease of use of this take anywhere, anytime, mobile projector has been improved and despite its small size and light weight, it produces a high brightness of 1200 lm and a high contrast ratio of 2000:1. The newly developed Iris Lens Cover and the Unplug & Go function permit speedy setup, and after the presentation is finished, just switch off the power of the projector and it can soon be moved to another location. Sharp, clear picture The DLPTM display system affords RGB color fidelity and inconspicuous gaps between the individual dots, thereby permitting the display of small characters and diagrams with distinct clarity. High contrast ration of 2000:1 Use of a new generation of DMD devices has given birth to an amazing 2000:1 high contrast ratio. By widening the difference of brightness between black and white, you can see a degree of sharpness that is greater than just the brightness based on specifications. Powerful functions for presentations A wide variety of easy-to-set functions have been built into the projector, from a digital keystone correction function (used when making settings) that corrects picture distortion, to an auto adjustment function that automatically identifies the PC signal. There is also a built-in "Presentation Timer" function for further presentation convenience. Great moving image playback capabilities using the same principles as DLP Cinema technology Plus DLP type projectors have the same makings as the DLP Cinema technology used in movie theaters. Because of their extremely fast response, even images with much movement ­ sports, movies ­ play smoothly without blurring. Security lock function The lock can be set so that a password must be input when the projector is started up. Without the correct password, no operations other than turning the power on and off can be performed. This function effectively protects the projector from unauthorized use. Eco-mode switch function for the lamp output Using the lamp Eco-mode will extend the life of the lamp and lower the power consumption. By switching the lamp mode to suit your operating environment, you will save on lamp cost as well as contribute to energy conservation and ecology.
