1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1.1 Warnings

To prevent personnel injury

The customer should never attempt to disassemble the lamp casing or to dispose of the lamp casing other than by returning it to
BARCO.

To prevent injuries and physical damage, always read this manual and all labels on the system before connecting to the wall outlet,
or adjusting the projector.

To prevent injuries, take note of the weight of the projector. Minimum 4 persons are needed to carry the projector.

NEVER look into the lens ! Due to the high luminance damage to the eye can happen.

Before attempting to remove the projector’s cover, you must turn off the projector and disconnect from the wall outlet.

When performing set up work at a ceiling mounted projector, to prevent injury caused by falling objects or the system, set out a keep
out area.

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.

The power input at the projector side is considered as the disconnect device. When mentioned to switch of the projector, to access
some parts inside, always disconnect the power cord at the projector side.

To prevent projector damage

If the Air Filters are not regularly 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 requirements,
it should always be operated with all of it’s covers in place.

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 personnel.

The projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures free flow 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.

Special care should be used when DLP projectors are used in the same room as performant 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

To prevent battery explosion

Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.

Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.

Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
