Important Information

LAMP HANDLING

PRECAUTIONS

This projector uses a high-pressure mercury lamp which must be handled carefully and properly as mentioned below.

•A lamp may explode with a loud sound or burn out due to a shock, scratch, or expiration of lifetime.

•The lamp life may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is not guarantee of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period of time than other similar lamps.

•A lamp gradually becomes darker with time of use.

•If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced (i.e., the LAMP indicator blinks red rapidly), chances of explosion become higher. Replace the lamp with a new one immediately.

•Always keep your face away from the exhaust vent so that you do not suffer from the gas and broken shards of the lamp.

IF A LAMP EXPLODES

If a lamp explodes, the gas and broken shards may scatter inside the projector and they may come out of the exhaust vent. The gas contains toxic mercury.

Open windows and doors for ventilation.

If you inhale the gas or the shards of the broken lamp enter your eyes or mouth, consult the doctor immediately.

If a lamp explodes, its shards may scatter inside the projector. Ask the Canon service representative to clean and check the inside of the projector and replace the lamp.

DISPOSAL OF WASTE LAMP

Dispose of the mercury lamp of the projector according to the local regulation just like the fluorescent lamp.

Lamp Replacement

•To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page 58.

•Be sure to replace the lamp when the message [Replace with the new lamp.] appears. If you continue to use the lamp after the lamp has reached the end of its usable life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury.

If this happens, contact your dealer for lamp replacement.

CAUTION

When removing the lamp from a ceiling-mounted projector, make sure that no one is under the projector. Glass fragments could fall if the lamp has been burned out.

NOTE FOR CUSTOMERS IN THE US

H1 and H2: H1 is the height of the screen from the intersection of optical axis and screen surface, and H2 is the height of the intersection when an image is projected at right angle to the screen.

TIP:

•For the relationship between the screen size and projection distance, see the table on page 69, 70.

•The sizes in the above table have been obtained assuming that the aspect ratio is 4:3. They may vary from the actual sizes depending on the type of the projected image.

•The Zoom lever adjusts the image size (diagonal) +/- 30%.

NOTE:

This projector can be hung from the ceiling (Ceiling mounted) with it turned up side down.

When a translucent screen is used, the projector can project an image from behind the screen (Rear).

When the projector is hung from the ceiling or projector projects an image from behind the screen, the image must be inverted vertically or horizontally. See page 50.

• When hanging the projector from the ceiling, optional brackets (part No. LV-CL11) are required.

13

2. Installation and Connections

WARNING

•Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done by a qualified technician. Contact your dealer for more information.

•Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.

•Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If the projector falls to the ground, you can be injured and the projector severely damaged.

•Do not use the projector where temperatures vary greatly. The projector must be used at temperatures between 41˚F (5˚C) and 104˚F (40˚C). (Quiet mode selected automatically at 95°F to 104°F/35°C to 40° C).

•Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or smoke. This will harm the screen image.

•Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your projector so heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents on the side or the front of the projector.

Reflecting the Image

Using a mirror to reflect your projector's image enables you to enjoy a much larger image. Contact your dealer if you need a mirror system. If you're using a mirror system and your image is inverted, use the MENU and SELECT buttons on your projector cabinet or your remote control to correct the orientation. See page 50.

2. Installation and Connections

Making Connections

NOTE: When using with a notebook PC, be sure to connect the projector and notebook PC while the projector is in standby mode and before turning on the power to the notebook PC.

In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector before being powered up.

*If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer's screen-saver or power management software.

Enabling the computer’s external display

Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector. When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display. Usually, the combination of the ‘Fn” key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on or off. For more details, refer to your computer’s owner’s manual.

Connecting Your PC or Macintosh Computer (LV-7365/LV-7265)

NOTE: For older Macintosh, use a

commercially available pin adapter (not supplied) to connect to your

Mac's video port.

PHONE

IBM VGA or Compatibles (Notebook type) or Macintosh (Notebook type)

NOTE: Use an audio cable without a built-in resistor. Using an audio cable with a built-in resistor turns down the sound.

NOTE: An image may not be displayed correctly when a Video or S-Video source is played back via a commercially available scan converter.

This is because the projector will process a video signal as a computer signal at the default setting. In that case, do the following.

*When an image is displayed with the lower and upper black portion of the screen or a dark image is not displayed correctly: Project an image to fill the screen and then press the AUTO PC button on the remote control or the projector cabinet.
