■ Retain Instructions 
The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference. 
■ Heed Warnings 
All warnings on the product and in the operating instructions should be adhered to. 
■ Follow Instructions 
All operating and use instructions should be followed. 
■ Cleaning 
Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or 
aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning. 
■ Attachments 
Do not use attachments not recommended by the product manufacturer as they may 
cause hazards. 
■ Water and Moisture 
Do not use this product near water - for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, 
or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like. 
■ Placement 
Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product 
may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the product. Use 
only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold 
with the product. 
Any mounting of the product should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use 
a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer. 
■ Ventilation 
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable 
operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not 
be blocked or covered. 
The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other

■ Power Sources 
This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the 
marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home consult your 
appliance dealer or local power company. For products intended to operate from battery 
power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions. 
■ Grounding or Polarization 
This product may be equipped with either a polarized 2-wire AC line plug (a plug having 
one blade wider than the other) or a 3-wire grounding type plug, a plug having a third 
(grounding) pin. 
Should read “If the 2-wire polarized plug fails to fit in the outlet, try reversing the plug”. If 
the plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not 
defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug. The 3-wire grounding type plug will fit into 
a grounding type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug 
into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the 
safety purpose of the grounding type plug. 
■ Power-Cord Protection 
Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not walked on or pinched by items 
placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience 
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product. 
■ Lightning 
For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended 
and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the 
antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and 
power-line surges. 
■ Overloading 
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this 
can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. 
■ A product and cart combination should be moved with care.  
Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the 
product and cart combination to overturn.  
■ Object and Liquid Entry 
Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings as they may touch 
dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. 
Never spill liquid of any kind on the product. 
■ Servicing 
Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening or removing covers may expose 
you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service 
personnel.

work by a qualified technician to restore the product to its normal operation. 
• If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way. 
• When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance - this indicates a need for 
service. 
■ Replacement Parts

BEFORE YOU USE 
■ To  use  this  product,  please  be  sure  to  use  the  supplied  power  cord and  AC 
adapter. 
■ The supplied power cord and AC adapter are designed for exclusive use with this 
product. Do not use them with other equipment. 
■ Be sure to use the power cord applicable to your local power specifications. If the product 
was sold in Japan, use the AC adapter sold with the product with 100VAC and 50 or 60 
Hz. 
■ Do not knot or coil the power cord or AC adapter cord or wrap them around the AC adapter. 
Doing so may damage the cords, causing fire or electric shock. 
■ Carry this product by holding the lower part of the main unit in both hands. Do not apply 
excessive vibration or shock to the product. Doing so may damage parts causing 
malfunction. 
■ Do not apply vibration or shock during projection. Do not use this product in a car or ship 
where vibration or shock is applied to the product. Vibration or shock may damage parts 
causing malfunction. 
■ Do not use this product in locations subject to humidity, dust, smoke, oil smoke or steam. 
Dirt may attach to the optical parts, such as the lens, causing reduced image quality. 
■ Do not use this product in locations subject to humidity, dust, smoke, oil smoke or steam. 
Dirt may attach to the optical parts such as lens causing unclear image. 
■ Do not use this product in locations exposed to extreme temperature or locations where 
the temperature changes too quickly. 
Use this product under the following environmental conditions: 
Temperature：5℃～ 35℃  Humidity： less than 85％(No condensation) 
■ When the product is suddenly brought into a warm place from a cold place or when the 
room temperature is quickly raised, condensation may occur to the surface of the lens 
causing reduced image quality. Wait until the condensation is completely gone and the 
image becomes clear. 
■ Do not touch the lens. It may leave fingerprint marks which can result in a blurred image. 
■ Important notes when connecting an HDMI cable. 
• Use a HIGH SPEED HDMI cable with the HDMI logo. 
HDMI cables that are not compliant with HDMI standards should not be used. 
• Do not apply excessive force to the HDMI terminal while the cable is connected as it 
could damage the HDMI terminal, leading to a malfunction.

■ Follow the guidelines below to prevent the product from dropping or overturning. 
• Use the product on a stable base, desk, or table. Do not place the product on an 
unstable base or slanted location. 
• Secure and tidy all cables to prevent accidentally pulling the projector off any surface. 
■ Luminescent spot and black spot 
There may be some pixels that do not operate properly due to the use of an image pick-up 
device made-up of many pixels. Though luminescent or black spots may be found on the 
screen, it is a phenomenon peculiar to the image pick-up device and is not a malfunction. 
■ There may be some flickering on the screen when shooting a pattern image with gradual 
changes in brightness. It is a phenomenon peculiar to the image pick-up device and is not 
a malfunction. 
This product is not designed to display such kind of images. 
■ There  may  be  some  image  distortion  for  a  moment  when  the  output  resolution  of  the 
connected device  is  changed  while  the  image  is  projected.  This  is  because  the  product 
automatically  adjusts  the  projection  settings  according  to  the  input  signal.  It  is  not  a 
malfunction. 
■ Lifetime of the parts 
Avoid using the projector in severe conditions such as high temperature, dusty or smoky 
environments as well as long-continuous use in excess of eight hours.   
Doing so may shorten the life of critical components such as the optical engine and 
cooling fan which may lead to degraded image quality.  Please note, warranty repair may 
not apply if unit is deemed to be subjected to such abuse. Regarding paid component 
replacement, please contact distributor the product was purchased from or our service 
office.
