Operating Temperature
Ambient operating temperature: 0°C to 45°C (32 °F to 113 °F). Ambient operating humidity: 10% - 80% (no condensation) When the operating mode is set to "Normal", the operating temperature range is 0°C to 45°C (32 °F to 113 °F), and at altitudes from 1,400 m to 4,200 m (4,593 ft to 13,780 ft) it is 0°C to 40°C (32 °F to 104 °F). When the operating mode is set to "Eco", or "Long Life 1/2/3", the operating temperature range is 0°C to 40°C (32 °F to 104 °F). When the projector is used with a Smoke Cut Filter, the operating temperature range is 0°C to 35°C (32 °F to 95 °F). Furthermore, when the operating mode is set to "Eco", or "Long Life 1/2/3",the projector cannot be used at altitudes above 2700 m (8,858 ft). In addition, when the projector is used with a Smoke Cut Filter, it cannot be used at altitudes above 1,400 m (4,593 ft). The brightness of the light source may drop depending on the operating environment and the operating temperature range in order to protect the projector.
