All notes and warnings in the operating instructions should be adhered
to.
3. Cleaning
Unplug the projector from the wall socket before cleaning. Use a damp
cloth for cleaning the projector housing. Do not use liquid or aerosol

4. Accessories
Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product
may fall,
causing serious damage to the product.
Keep the plastic packing materials (from the projector, accessories and
optional parts) out of the reach of children as these bags may result in
death by suffocation. Be particularly careful around the small children.
5. Ventilation

When replacement parts are required, be sure that the replacement
parts are
specified by the manufacture. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric
shock or other hazards.
9. Moisture Condensation
Never operate this projector immediately after moving it from a cold
location to a warm one. When the projector is exposed to such a
change in temperature, moisture may condense on the lens and the
crucial internal parts. To prevent the unit from possible damage, do not
use the projector for at least 2 hours when there is an extreme or
sudden change in temperature.

Notes on the AC Power Cord
AC Power Cord must meet the requirement of countries where you use this
projector. Please confirm your AC plug type with the graphics below and
ensure that the proper AC Power Cord is used. If the supplied AC Power
Cord does not match your AC outlet, please contact your sales dealer. This
projector is equipped with a grounding type AC line plug. Please ensure that
your outlet fits the plug. Do not defeat the safety purpose of this grounding
type plug. We highly recommend using a video source device also equipped
with a grounding type AC line plug to prevent signal interference due to
voltage fluctuations.
