Caution:
• Placing the projector on a carpet reduces ventila-
tion from the fan at the bottom and might cause
problems. Place a hard board or similar item
under the projector to facilitate ventilation of the
unit.
• Place the projector more than 50 cm (20 inch)
from the wall to prevent blocking the intake,
exhaust slots and ventilation of this projector
because hot air comes out of it.
• Do not use the projector under the following
circumstances, which may cause fire or electric
shock.
• in a dusty or humid place
• while the projector is lying sideways or upside
down
• near a heater
• in a kitchen or oily, smoky or damp place
• in direct sunlight
• with high temperature, such as a closed car
• where the temperature is lower than 41°F
(+5˚C) or higher than 104°F (40˚C).
Important:
• Do not put stress on the lens, as this may cause
damage.
