Important safety instructions

Your projector is designed and tested to meet the latest standards for safety of

information technology equipment. However, to ensure safe use of this product, it is

important that you follow the instructions mentioned in this manual and marked on

the product.

Safety Instructions

1. Please read this manual before you

operate your projector. Save it for

future reference.

2. Do not look straight at the projector

lens during operation. The intense

light beam may damage your eyes.

3. Refer servicing to qualified service

personnel.

4. Always open the lens shutter or

remove the lens cap when the

projector lamp is on.

5. In some countries, the line voltage is

NOT stable. This projector is

designed to operate safely within a

mains voltage between 100 to 240

volts AC, but could fail if power cuts

or surges of 10 volts occur. In areas

where the mains voltage may

fluctuate or cut out, it is

recommended that you connect your

projector through a power stabilizer,

surge protector or uninterruptible

power supply (UPS).

6. When the projector is under

operation, you may sense some

heated air and odor from its

ventilation grill. It is a normal

phenomenon and not a product

defect.

Important safety instructions4

Safety Instructions (Continued)

7. Do not block the projection lens

with any objects as this could cause

the objects to become heated and

deformed or even cause a fire. To

temporarily turn off the lamp, press

BLANK on the projector or remote

control.

8. The lamp becomes extremely hot

during operation. Allow the

projector to cool for approximately

45 minutes prior to removing the

lamp assembly for replacement.

9. Never replace the lamp assembly or

any electronic components unless

the projector is unplugged.

10. Do not operate lamps beyond the

rated lamp life. Excessive operation

of lamps beyond the rated life

could cause them to break on rare

occasions.

11. Do not place this product on an

unstable cart, stand, or table. The

product may fall, sustaining serious

damage.

12. Do not stand the projector on end

vertically. Doing so may cause the

projector to fall over, causing injury

or resulting in damage to the

projector.

Important safety instructions 5

Safety Instructions (Continued)

13. Do not attempt to disassemble this

projector. There are dangerous high

voltages inside which may cause death

if you should come into contact with

live parts. The only user serviceable

part is the lamp which has its own

removable cover.

Under no circumstances should you

ever undo or remove any other covers.

Refer servicing only to suitably

qualified professional service

personnel.

14. Do not block the ventilation holes.

- Do not place this projector on a

blanket, bedding or any other soft

surface.

- Do not cover this projector with a

cloth or any other item.

- Do not place inflammables near the

projector.

If the ventilation holes are seriously

obstructed, overheating inside the

projector may result in a fire.

15. Do not place this projector in any of

the following environments.

- Space that is poorly ventilated or

confined. Allow at least 50 cm

clearance from walls and free flow of

air around the projector.

- Locations where temperatures may

become excessively high, such as the

inside of a car with all windows

rolled up.

- Locations where excessive humidity,

dust, or cigarette smoke may

contaminate optical components,

shorten the projector's life span and

darken the image.

- Locations near fire alarms

- Locations with an ambient

temperature above 40°C / 104°F

- Locations where the altitudes are

higher than 3000 m (10000 feet).

Safety Instructions (Continued)

16. Always place the projector on a level,

horizontal surface during operation.

- Do not use if tilted at an angle of

more than 10 degrees left to right,

nor at angle of more than 15 degrees

front to back. Using the projector

when it is not fully horizontal may

cause a malfunction of, or damage

to, the lamp.

17. Do not step on the projector or place

any objects upon it. Besides probable

physical damage to the projector,

doing so may result in accidents and

possible injury.

18. Do not place liquids near or on the

projector. Liquids spilled into the

projector may cause it to fail. If the

projector does become wet,

disconnect it from the power outlet

and call BenQ to have the projector

serviced.

19. This product is capable of displaying

inverted images for ceiling mount

installation.

Use only BenQ's Ceiling Mount Kit for

mounting the projector and ensure it

is securely installed.
