* Make sure that you use a power source with the same voltage as that specified for the projector.
* Do not overload a power outlet with too many devices.
* Do not share the outlet supplying power to the projector with other devices. If you are using an extension cord, make sure that the ampere rating of the extension cord is compatible with the power consumption value of this projector.
