• Check that the operating voltage of your unit is identical with the voltage
of your local power supply. If voltage adaptation is required, consult with
qualified Sony personnel.
• Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet, unplug the unit and
have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it further.
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet or set the MAIN POWER switch to
OFF if it is not to be used for several days.
• To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
• The wall outlet should be near the unit and easily accessible.
• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long
as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned
off.
• Do not look into the lens while the lamp is on.
• Do not place your hand or objects near the ventilation holes — the air
coming out is hot.
• When the projector is mounted on the ceiling, the Sony PSS-500
Projector Suspension Support must be used for installation.
• Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build-up. Do not
place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains,
draperies) that may block the ventilation holes. Leave space of more than
10 cm (4 inches) between the wall and the projector. Be aware that room
heat rises to the ceiling; check that the temperature near the installation
location is not excessive.
• If you use the rear adjuster in a warm environment, the exhaust may be
inhaled into the projector through the ventilation holes at the bottom,
causing the internal temperature to rise, which activates the protection
circuit. Install the projector so that the exhaust is not blocked. (See the
illustration below.)
• Install the projector on the floor or ceiling. Any other installation causes
a malfunction such as color irregularity or shortening lamp life.
• Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources such as radiators or
air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or
humidity, mechanical vibration or shock.
• To avoid moisture condensation, do not install the unit in a location
where the temperature may rise rapidly.
