If the power cord is used while damaged, electric shocks, short-circuits or fire will result.
 zDo not damage the power cord, make any modifications to it, place it near any hot objects, bend it 
excessively, twist it, pull it, place heavy objects on top of it or wrap it into a bundle.
Ask an Authorized Service Center to carry out any repairs to the power cord that might be necessary.
Completely insert the power plug into the wall outlet and the power conn\
ector into the projector 
terminal.
If the plug is not inserted correctly, electric shocks or overheating will result.
 zDo not use plugs which are damaged or wall outlets which are coming loos\
e from the wall.
Do not use anything other than the provided power cord.
 zFailure to observe this will result in electric shocks or fire. Please note that if you do not use the provided 
power cord to ground the device on the side of the outlet, this may resu\
lt in electric shocks.
Clean the power plug regularly to prevent it from becoming covered in du\
st.
Failure to observe this will cause a fire.
 zIf dust builds up on the power plug, the resulting humidity can damage t\
he insulation.

could result.
Do not place another projector or other heavy objects on top of the proj\
ector.
Failure to observe this will cause the projector to become unbalanced and fall, which could result in damage or 
injury. The projector will be damaged or deformed.
Installation work (such as ceiling mount bracket) should only be carried out by a qualified technician.
If installation is not carried out and secured correctly it can cause in\
jury or accidents, such as electric shocks.
 zDo not use anything other than an authorized ceiling mount bracket.
 zBe sure to use the wire provided with the projector mount bracket for ceiling mount as an extra safety mea-
sure to prevent the projector from falling down (Install in a different location to the ceiling mount bracket).

WARNING:
Do not disassemble the lamp unit.
If the lamp breaks, it could cause injury.
Lamp replacement
The lamp has high internal pressure. If improperly handled, an explosion and severe injury or accidents will 
result.
 zThe lamp can easily explode if struck against hard objects or dropped.
 zBefore replacing the lamp, be sure to disconnect the power plug from the\
 wall outlet.  
Electric shocks or explosions can result if this is not done.
 zWhen replacing the lamp, turn the power off and allow the lamp it to cool for at least 1 hour before handling 
it otherwise it can cause burns.
Do not allow infants or pets to touch the remote control unit.
 zKeep the remote control unit out of the reach of infants and pets after using it.
Do not use the supplied power cord with devices other than this projecto\
r.
 zUsing the supplied power cord with devices other than this projector may\
 cause short circuits or overheat-
ing, and result in electric shock or fire.
Remove the depleted batteries from the remote control promptly.
 zLeaving them in the unit may result in fluid leakage, overheating, or explosion of the batteries.
CAUTION:
 „POWER
When disconnecting the power cord, be sure to hold the power plug and po\
wer connector.
If the power cord itself is pulled, the lead will become damaged, and fire, short-circuits or serious electric 
shocks will result.
When not using the projector for an extended period of time, disconnect \
the power plug from the wall 
outlet and remove the batteries from the remote control.
Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet before carrying out any c\
leaning and replacing the unit.
Electric shocks can result if this is not done.
 „ON USE/INSTALLATION
Do not place heavy objects on top of the projector.
Failure to observe this will cause the projector to become unbalanced and fall, which could result in damage or 
injury. The projector will be damaged or deformed.
Do not put your weight on this projector.
You could fall or the projector could break, and injury will result.
 zBe especially careful not to let young children stand or sit on the proj\
ector.
Do not place the projector in extremely hot locations.
Doing so will cause the outer casing or internal components to deteriorate, or result in fire.
 zTake particular care in locations exposed to direct sunlight or near stoves.
Always disconnect all cables before moving the projector.
Moving the projector with cables still attached can damage the cables, which will cause fire or electric shocks to 
occur.
