Caution

About burning-in of the D-ILA device

Do not allow the same still picture to be projected for a long

time or an abnormally bright video picture to be projected.

Do not project video images with high-intensity or high con-

trast on a screen. The video image could be burnt into the

D-ILA device.

Use special care when projecting video games or computer

program images.

There is no problem with ordinary video cassette playback

images.

Viewing conditions

Brightness of the room

Please avoid having sunshine or light shine directly onto the

screen. Images can only be well projected if the room is dark.

Do not view the screen continually for a long time

Looking at the screen continually for a long time will cause

your eyes to be tired. Please rest your eyes sometimes.

Image flicker due to installation condition or the environment

Please do not view flickering images for too long as this causes

poor eyesight.
