Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for useENGLISH - 17Precautions for useLens protection materialLens protection material is attached to the product at the time of purchase to protect the projection lens from thevibration during transport. Remove the lens protection material before use.rRemoving the lens protection materialLens shift leverLens protection materialTabFig. 1Fig. 2 Fig. 31) Turn the lens shift lever counterclockwise, and release the fixing. (Fig. 2)2) Hold the tab of the lens protection material and remove the lens protection material by pulling in thedirection of the arrow. (Fig. 1)f Move the lens shift lever to right when it is difficult to remove the lens protection material. (Fig. 3)Cautions when transportingf When transporting the projector, hold it securely by its bottom and avoid excessive vibration and impacts. Theymay damage the internal components and result in malfunctions.f Do not transport the projector with the adjustable feet extended. Doing so may damage the adjustable feet.Cautions when installingrDo not set up the projector outdoors.The projector is designed for indoor use only.rDo not set up the projector in the following locations.f Places where vibration and impacts occur such as in a car or vehicle: Doing so may cause damage to internalcomponents or malfunction.f Location close to sea or where corrosive gas may occur: The projector may fall due to corrosion. Also, failure todo so may shorten the life of the components and result in malfunction.f Near the exhaust of an air conditioner: Depending on the conditions of use, the screen may fluctuate in rarecases due to the heated air from the air exhaust port or the hot or cooled air from the air conditioner. Make surethat the exhaust from the projector or other equipment, or the air from the air conditioner does not blow towardthe front of the projector.f Places with sharp temperature fluctuations such as near lights (studio lamps): Doing so may shorten the life ofthe light source, or result in deformation of the projector due to heat, which may cause malfunctions.Follow the operating environment temperature of the projector.f Near high-voltage power lines or near motors: Doing so may interfere with the operation of the projector.f Places where there is high-power laser equipment: Directing a laser beam onto the projection lens surfacecauses damage to the DLP chips.
