Safety precautions

Using your LED projector

• Refer to the manual and take note of the safety instructions before operating your LED projector.
• Follow the notes and warnings stated in the user manual.
- Do not place your LED projector on uneven or unstable surfaces.
- Do not use your LED projector in smoky environments. Smoke residue may cause build-up on critical parts and damage the LED projector or decrease its performance.
- Keep the LED projector's plastic packages out of the reach of children.
- Do not block or place anything near the LED projector's ventilation holes. Doing so may cause internal heat build-up that can degrade picture quality and damage the projector.
- Ensure that the operating voltage of your LED projector matches the voltage of your power source.

Servicing and replacement of parts

  • Do not disassemble or attempt to service this LED projector by yourself. Contact your local ASUS service center for assistance.
  • Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose used batteries according to safety instructions and contact your local ASUS service center for assistance.
  • When replacing parts of your LED projector, purchase items as specified by ASUS and contact your local service center for assistance.

Caring for your LED projector

  • Switch off then unplug the LED projector from the power outlet before cleaning it.
  • When cleaning the LED projector's housing, use a clean soft cloth dampened with water or a mix of water and neutral detergent. Wipe it dry using a soft dry cloth.
  • Ensure that the lens is cool before cleaning it. Gently wipe the lens using a lens cleaning paper. Do not touch the lens with your hands.
  • Do not use liquid or aerosole cleaners, benzene, or thinners on your LED projector.
  • Never operate this LED projector immediately after moving it from a cold location. When the LED projector is exposed to a drastic change in temperature, moisture may condense on the lens and its other internal parts. To prevent this, use the unit two (2) hours after an extreme or sudden change in temperature occurs.
