10Your Dell Projector About Your Interactive Pen (for S500wi only) CAUTION: Safety Instructions 1Do not use the projector near appliances that generate a lot of heat. 2Do not use the projector in areas where there is an excessive amount of dust. The dust may cause the system to fail and the projector will automatically shutdown. 3Ensure that the projector is mounted in a well-ventilated area. 4Do not block the ventilation slots and openings on the projector. 5Ensure the projector operates between ambient temperatures (5 ºC to 35 ºC). 6Do not try to touch the ventilation outlet as it can become very hot after the projector has been turned on or immediately after it is turned off. 7Do not look into the lens while the projector is on as it may cause injury to your eyes. 8Do not place any objects near or in front of the projector or cover its lens while the projector is on as the heat may cause the object to melt or burn. 1 Replaceable nib 2 Lens 3 Control buttons 4 LED indicators 5 Wr i s t s t r a p h o l d e r 6 Po w e r s w it c h 7 Firmware upgrade connector 8 Mini USB charge connector 12 3 4 5 6 7 8 Top View Bottom View
