precaution before carrying out any cleaning.
•  Electric shocks can result if this is not done.
If the lamp has broken, ventilate the room immediately. Do not touch 
or bring your face close to the broken pieces.
•  Failure to observe this may cause the user to absorb the gas which was released when the lamp broke 
and which contains nearly the same amount of mercury as fluorescent lamps, and the broken pieces 
may cause injury.
•  If you believe that you have absorbed the gas or that the gas has got into your eyes or mouth, seek 
medical advice immediately.
•  Ask your dealer to replace the lamp unit and check the inside of the projector.

Caution when moving the projector
The projection lens is susceptible to vibrations and impacts. Be sure to always remove the lens during transport.
Cautions regarding setup
Be sure to observe the following precautions when installing the product.
Be sure to install the projection lens cover when installing the projection 
lens.
If this is not done, dust will collect inside the projector and problems with the projector will result.
Avoid installing the product in a place exposed to vibrations or impacts.
If the projector is installed in a place where vibrations are transmitted from a source of driving power and 
others or mounted in a car, vibrations or impacts may be transmitted to the product to damage the internal 
parts, causing failure. Install the product in a place free from vibrations and impacts.
Do not install the projector near high-voltage power lines or power sources.
The product may be exposed to interference if it is installed in the vicinity of high-voltage electrical power lines 
or power sources.
Do not place the projector on a vinyl sheet or carpet.
If a vinyl sheet sucked up and blocks the air filter intake port, the internal temperature of the projector may 
increase, which triggers the protection circuit, turning off the power.
Be sure to ask a specialized technician when to install the product to a 
ceiling.
If the product is to be installed hanging from the ceiling, purchase an optional hanging attachment (for high 
ceiling: Model No. ET-PKD100H) (for low ceiling: Model No. ET-PKD100S) and call a specialized technician for 
installation.
Do not place the projector over 2 700 m (8881.5´) above sea level. When 
using it over 1 400 m (4605.3´) above sea level, set the “
ALTITUDE”, 
described on 
page 76, to “HIGH”.
Otherwise the life of the product may be shortened.
