Barco large screen projection products are designed and manufactured to meet the most stringent safety regulations. This projector
radiates heat on its external surfaces and from ventilation ducts during normal operation, which is both normal and safe. Exposing
flammable or com bustible materials into close proximity of this pr ojector could result in the spontaneous ignition of that material,
resulting in a fire. For this reason, it is absolutely necessary to leave an “exclusion zone” around all external surfaces of the projector
whereby no flammable or combustible materials are present. T he exclusion zone must be not less than 40 cm (16”) for all DLP
Cinema projectors. The exclusion zone on the lens side m ust be at least 5 m. Do not cover the projector or the lens with any
material while the projector is in opera tion. Keep flammable and combu stible m aterials away from the projector at all times. Mount
the projector in a well ventilated area away from sources of ignition and out of direct sun light. Never expose the projector to rain
or moisture. In the event of fir e, use sand, CO
