Precautions
On safety
 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 Sony personnel before operating it
further.
 Unplug the unit from the wall outlet 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 in use.
 When turning on the projector, make sure no
one is peeking at the projection lens.
 Do not let children use the unit alone.
 Do not place your hand or objects near the
ventilation holes — the air coming out is hot.
 Be careful not to catch your fingers by the feet
(adjustable) when you adjust the height of the
unit. Do not push hard on the top of the unit
with the adjuster out.
 Be sure to use two people to grasp both sides of
the unit when carrying the unit.
 Avoid using an extension cord with a low voltage
limited since it may cause the short-circuit and
physical incidents.
Do not catch your finger between the unit and

surface of the floor when moving the projector
installed on the floor.
Be careful not to catch your finger in the cooling

fan.
 Do not carry the projector with the cabinet on
and with its cover open.
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.
 If a user disassembles, repairs, or alters the unit,
it may cause a serious problem to the user's
safety.
 If the projector malfunctions or is damaged,
consult with a qualified Sony personnel.
 If the ventilation holes are blocked, internal heat
builds up, and it may cause a fire or damage the
unit. To allow adequate air circulation and
prevent internal heat build-up, follow the items
below:
Place the unit, leaving sufficient space from

walls or any objects (page 30).
 Avoid using something to cover the ventilation
holes (exhaust/intake).
 Do not place the unit on surfaces such as an
original packing sheet, soft cloth, papers, rugs,
or scraps of paper. The ventilation holes may
take in such materials.
 Do not place any object in front of the lens that
may block the light during projection. Heat from
the light may damage the object. Use the picture
muting function to cut off the picture.
 Do not use the Security bar for the purpose of
preventing theft for transporting or installing the
unit. If you lift the unit by the Security bar or
hang the unit by this bar, it may cause the unit to
fall and be damaged, and may result in personal
injury.
