Caution regarding usage of the projector
■If you are not to use the projector for a long
time or before moving the projector, make
certain you unplug the power cord from the
wall outlet, and disconnect any other cables
connected to it.
■ If the power cord is unplugged while the cool-
ing fan is running, some parts of the projec-
tor may still be hot. Use caution when han-
dling the projector.
■ Do not carry the projector by holding the lens.
■ When storing the projector, ensure you at-
tach the lens cap to the projector. (See page
11.)
■ Do not expose the projector to direct sunlight
or place next to heat sources. Doing so may
affect the cabinet color or cause deformation
of the plastic cover.
Other connected equipment
■When connecting a computer or other audio-
visual equipment to the projector, make the
connections AFTER unplugging the power
cord of the projector from the AC outlet and
turning off the equipment to be connected.
■ Please read the owner’s manuals of the pro-
jector and the equipment to be connected for
instructions on how to make the connections.
Using the projector in other countries
■The power supply voltage and the shape of
the plug may vary depending on the region
or country you are using the projector in.
When using the projector overseas, make
sure you use an appropriate power cord for
the country you are in.
Temperature monitor function
■If the projector star ts to overheat due to setup
problems or blockage of the air vents, “
”  and
“”  will illuminate in the lower left corner
of the picture. If the temperature continues to
r ise, the lamp will turn off, the temperature warn-
ing indicator on the projector will blink, and after
a 60-second cooling-off period the projector will
enter standby mode. Refer to “Maintenance In-
dicators” on page  50 for details.
Info
• The cooling fan regulates the internal tempera-
ture, and its performance is automatically con-
trolled. The sound of the fan may change dur-
ing projector operation due to changes in the
f an speed. This does not indicate malfunction.

•Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with alkaline or manganese batteries.
• Insert the batteries making sure the polarities correctly match the  m and  n marks inside the battery
compartment.
• Batteries of different types have different properties, therefore do not mix batteries of different types.
• Do not mix new and old batteries.
This may shorten the life of new batteries or may cause old batteries to leak.
• Remove the batteries from the remote control once they have run out, as leaving them in can cause them
to leak.
Battery fluid from leaked batteries is harmful to skin, therefore ensure you wipe them first and then remove
them using a cloth.
• The batteries included with this projector may run down in a short period, depending on how they are kept.
Be sure to replace them as soon as possible with new batteries.
• Remove the batteries from the remote control if you will not be using the remote control for a long time.
• Comply with the rules (ordinance) of each local government when disposing of worn-out batteries.
Incorrect use of the batteries may cause them to leak or explode. Please
follow the precautions below.
