Important safety instructions

Your projector is designed and tested to meet the latest standards for safety of information technology equipment. However, to ensure safe use of this product, it is important that you follow the instructions mentioned in this manual and marked on the product.

1. Please read this user manual before you operate your projector. Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

Read Manual

2. Always place the projector on a level, horizontal surface during operation.

- Do not place the projector on an unstable cart, stand, or table as it may fall and be damaged.

- Do not place inammables near the

projector.

- Do not use if tilted at an angle of more than 10 degrees left to right, nor at angle of more than 15 degrees front to back.

4. Do not place the projector in any of the following environments:

- space that is poorly ventilated or conned.

Allow at least 50 cm clearance from walls

and free ow of air around the projector.

- locations where temperatures may become excessively high, such as the inside of a car with all windows closed.

- locations where excessive humidity, dust, or cigarette smoke may contaminate optical components, shorten the projector’s lifespan and darken the screen.

3. Do not store the projector on end vertically. Doing so may cause the projector to fall over, causing injury or resulting in damage.

- locations near re alarms.

- locations with an ambient temperature above 35°C/95°F.

- locations where altitude is higher than 1500 meters/4920 feet above sea level.

49209840 feet

3. Do not block the vents holes while the projector is on (even in standby mode):

- Do not cover the projector with any item.

- Do not place the projector on a blanket, bedding or any other soft surface.

9. Do not look straight into the projector lens during operation. It may harm your sight.

English

6. In areas where the mains power supply

voltage may uctuate by ±10 volts, it

is recommended that you connect your projector through a power stabilizer, surge protector or uninterruptible power supply (UPS) as appropriate to your situation.

UPS

7. Do not step on the projector or place any objects upon it.

10. Do not operate the projector lamp beyond the rated lamp life. Excessive operation of lamps beyond the rated life could cause a lamp to break on rare occasions.

11. The lamp becomes extremely hot during operation. Allow the projector to cool for approximately 45 minutes prior to removing the lamp assembly for replacement.

8. Do not place liquids near or on the projector. Liquids spilled into the projector will void your warranty. If the projector does become wet, disconnect it from the power point and call BenQ to have the projector repaired.

12. This projector is capable of displaying inverted images for ceiling mount installation. Use only BenQ's Ceiling Mount Kit for mounting.

English

13. Never attempt to replace the lamp assembly until the projector has cooled down and is unplugged from the power supply.

14. When you think service or repair is required, take the projector only to a

suitably qualied technician.

15. Do not attempt to disassemble this projector. There are dangerous high voltages inside which may cause death if you should come into contact with live parts. The only user serviceable part is the lamp which has its own removable cover. Under no circumstances should you ever undo or remove any other covers. Refer

servicing only to suitably qualied

professional service personnel.

Please keep the original packing for possible future shipment.

Choosing a location

Your projector is designed to be installed in one of four possible installation locations.

Your room layout or personal preference will dictate which installation location you select. Take into consideration the size and position of your screen, the location of a suitable power outlet, as well as the location and distance between the projector and the rest of your equipment.

1. Front:

Select this location with the projector

placed near the oor in front of the

screen. This is the most common way to position the projector for quick setup and portability.

2. Ceiling + Front:

Select this location with the projector suspended from the ceiling in front of the screen. Purchase the BenQ Projector Ceiling Mount Kit from your dealer to mount your projector on the ceiling.

*Set Ceiling Front after you turn the projector on.

3. Rear: Select this location with the projector

placed near the oor behind the screen.

• Ceiling installation must be done by a qualied professional. Contact your dealer for more information. It is not

recommended you install the projector yourself.

• Only use the projector on a solid, level surface. Serious injury and damage can occur if the projector is dropped.

• Do not use the projector in an environment where extreme temperature occurs. The projector must be used

at temperatures between 41 degrees Fahrenheit (5 degrees Celsius) and 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius).

• Screen damage will occur if the projector is exposed to moisture, dust or smoke.

• Do not cover the vents on the projector. Proper ventilation is required to dissipate heat. Damage to the projector

will occur if the vents are covered.

Making Connections

Preparations

When connecting a signal source to the projector, be sure to:

1. Turn off all equipment before making any connections.

2. Use only the correct type cables for each source with proper type plugs.

3. Ensure that all cable plugs are rmly tted to the equipment jacks.

Note that all cables shown in the following connection diagrams may not be supplied with the projector (See "Shipping contents" on page 7 Shipping contents). Most cables are commercially available from electronics stores.

Connecting DVI-D devices

DVI-D (Digital Visual Interface) supports uncompressed video data transmission between compatible devices like DTV tuners, DVD players and displays over a single cable. It provides pure digital viewing and listening experience. You should use an DVI-D cable when making connection between the projector and DVI-D devices.

To make sure you select a correct input source type for the DVI-D signal.

Connecting component-video devices

Be sure to match the corresponding colors between the cables and the terminals. The BNC type

component video jacks are provided for connection to video output devices.

AV equipment: DVD player, digital tuner, etc.

• If you have already made a Component Video connection between the projector and the video source device, you need not connect to this device again using a composite Video connection as this makes an unnecessary second connection of poorer picture quality.

• If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct video source has been selected, please check that the video source device is turned on and operating correctly. Also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.

Connecting a computer

Connect the projector to a computer with a VGA cable.

English

5 x BNC cable

Laptop or desktop computer

VGA cable

Many laptops do not turn on their external video ports when connected to a projector. Usually a key combination like Fn + F3 or CRT/LCD key turns the external display on/off. Locate a function key labeled CRT/LCD or a function key with a monitor symbol on the laptop. Press Fn and the labeled function key simultaneously. Refer to your laptop's documentation to discover your laptop's key combination.

English

Connecting a monitor

If you want to view your presentation close-up on a monitor as well as on the screen and the MONITOR OUT jack is available on your projector, you can connect the MONITOR OUT signal output jack on the projector.

VGA cable

VGA to DVI cable

• The MONITOR OUT only works when an appropriate D-Sub input is made to the PC jack.

• If you wish to use this connection method when the projector is in standby mode, make sure the Standby Monitor

Out function is turned on in the Advanced Setup menu.
