Simple and Practical Safety Tips for Operating a Projector

Projectors are an integral part of home-based entertainment systems. Plus, they are used for delivering great presentations in business meetings, schools, and churches. They help in reflecting high-quality images on larger screens. Like any other electronic device, a projector needs to be handled properly. And, while handling the projector, you need to take some precautions.

Before starting a new projector, you should read the user manual thoroughly. It is important to follow the instructions given in it. Plus, you should check the warning instructions given in it and get information about all relevant health and safety issues.

In this write-up, we have jotted down some easy-to-follow safety tips for operating your projector.

Set up properly

1) Whether you wall-mount your projector or keep it on a desk, avoid blocking the projector fans. 

2) Avoid placing the projector on a tilted surface. 

3) Prevent exposing your projector to water, smoke, steam, sunlight, corrosive gases, and dust.

4) The room where you place the projector should have a moderate temperature ranging between 5 to 35 °C.

Operating

1) While the projector is on, you should avoid looking into its lens directly because the bright light can damage your eyes.

2) You should never insert your hands or any other objects into the projector vents while it is running.

3) Do not keep flammable objects like alcohol or perfume near the projector.

4) While projection, avoid blocking the projector lens through any other object other than lens cover as this can damage the projector or cause a fire.

Cleaning and Maintenance

1) Before cleaning the projector, unplug it well and allow it to cool down properly.

2) To clean the projector, you should avoid using any liquid cleaners or any sprays containing flammable gas or alcohol as they can cause a fire.

3) Do not remove the projector cover, except while changing the projector lamp.

4) Avoid fixing major issues in the hardware of the projector on your own. Otherwise, you may end up damaging it further.

Shutting down

Avoid shutting down the projector by unplugging the power plug. Rather, use the power button on the remote to switch it off.

On a final note, we suggest you always buy a high-quality projector lamp whenever you need to replace it. Low-quality substitutions may result in electric shocks or other hazards. At Aussie Lamp Centre, you can find a wide range of high-quality, branded projector lamps.
