1. Safety
• When mounting the projector to the ceiling or to a rigging system, always mount security chains.
• Warning: Protection from ultraviolet radiation: Do not look directly in the light beam. The lamp contained in this product is
an intense source of light and heat. One component of the light emitted from this lamp is ultraviolet light. Potential eye and skin
hazards are present when the lamp is energized due to ultraviolet radiation. Avoid unnecessary exposure. Protect yourself and
your employees by making them aware of the hazards and how to protect themselves. Protecting the skin can be accomplished
by wearing tightly woven garments and gloves. Protecting the eyes from UV can be accomplished by wearing safety glasses
that are designed to provide UV protection. In addition to the UV, the visible light from the lamp is intense and should also be
considered when choosing protective eye wear.
• Exposure to UV radiation: Some medications are known to make individuals extra sensitive to UV radiation. The American
Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) recommends occupational UV exposure for an-8hour day to be
less than 0.1 microwatts per square centimeters of effective UV radiation. An evaluation of the workplace is advised to assure
employees are not exposed to cumulative radiation levels exceeding these government guidelines.
To prevent projector damage
• If the Air Filters are notregularly replaced, the air flow inside the projector could be disrupted, causing overheating. Overheating
may lead to the projector shutting down during operation.
• In order to ensure that correct airflow is maintained, and that the projector complies with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
requirements, it should always be operated with all of it’s covers in place.
• Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from
overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product
on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. The
projector should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Do not block the projector cooling fans or free air movement under and around the projector. Loose papers or other objects
may not be nearer to the projector than 10 cm (4") on any side.
• The projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures free fl ow of air into its air inlets and unimpeded evacuation
of the hot air exhausted from its cooling system. Heat sensitive materials should not be placed in the path of the exhausted air.
Leave at least a free safety area of 1 meter (40”) at the rear of the projector.
• Ensure that nothing can be spilled on, or dropped inside the projector. If this does happen, switch off and unplug the mains
supply immediately. Do not operate the projector again until it has been checked by qualified service technicians.
• Consult a professional structural engineer prior to suspending the ceiling mount from a structure not intended for that use.
Always ensure the working load limit of the structure supporting the projector.
• Do not use this equipment near water.
• Special care should be used when DLP projectors are used in the same room as high power laser equipment. Direct or indirect
hitting of a laser beam on to the lens can severely damage the Digital Mirror Devices
TM
in which case there is a loss of warranty.
• Save the original shipping carton and packing material; they will come in handy if you ever have to ship your equipment. For
maximum protection, repack your set as it was originally packed at the factory.
• Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for
cleaning. Never use strong solvents, such as thinner or benzine, or abrasive cleaners, since these will damage the cabinet.
Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with mild detergent solution.
• To ensure the highest optical performance and res
olution, the projection lenses are specially treated with an anti-reflective
coating, therefore, avoid touching the lens. To remove dust on the lens, use a soft dry cloth. Do not use a damp cloth, detergent
solution, or thinner.
To prevent battery explosion
• Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly installed.
• Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
• Dispose of used batteries according to the manu
facturer’s instruction.
To prevent fire hazard
• Warning “Risk of fire”. Do not place flammable or combustible materials near the projector !
This projector radiates heat on its external surfaces and from ventilation ducts during normal operation, which is both normal
and safe. Exposing flammable or combustible materials into close proximity of this projector could result in the spontaneous
ignition of that material, resulting in a fire. For this reason, it is absolutely necessary to leave an “exclusion zone” around all
external surfaces of the projector whereby no flammable or combustible materials are present. The exclusion zone must be not
less than 40 cm (16”) for all Barco DLP projectors. The exclusion zone on the lens side must be at least 2 meter (80”).
• Do not cover the projector or the lens with any material while the projector is in operation.
• To reduce the lamp heat of the project
or, switch the projector first to standby and let the projector lamp cool down for at least 5
minutes. Then the projector may be switched off with the power switch.
• Mount the projector in a well ventilated area away from sources of ignition and out of direct sun light.
• Never expose the projector to rain or moisture.
• In the event of fire, use sand, CO
2
, or dry powder fire extinguishers; never use water on an electrical fire.
• This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register.
• This projector should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Projection rooms must be well ventilated or cooled in order to avoid build up of heat.
