.
Do not set up the projector in humid or dusty places or in places where \
the projector may come into 
contact with oily smoke or steam.
Using the projector under such conditions will result in fire, electric shocks or deterioration of components. 
Deterioration of components (such as ceiling mount brackets) may cause the projector which is mounted on the 
ceiling to fall down.
Do not install this projector in a place which is not strong enough to t\
ake the full weight of the projector 
or on top of a surface which is sloped or unstable.
Failure to observe this will cause projector to fall down or tip over th\
