Features
Tilting the unit to the right or left
Avoid tilting the unit to an angle of 15°, and
avoid installing the unit in any way other
than placing on the floor or suspending from
the ceiling. Such installation may cause
color shading or shorten the lamp life
excessively.
Blocking the ventilation holes
Avoid using something to cover over the
ventilation holes (exhaust/intake);
otherwise, the internal heat may build up.
For details on the ventilation holes (intake/
exhaust), see “Location and Function of
Controls” on page 10.
