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

 Network and Alert Mail Settings by Using an HTTP Browser

Overview

Connecting the projector to a network allows the projector to send an alert mail that informs the user that the lamp
has reached the end of its life or an error has occurred.
The IP address and subnet mask of the projector can be set on the Network Setting screen of the web browser
by using an HTTP server function. Please be sure to use “Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0” or a higher version for
the web browser. (This device uses “JavaScript” and “Cookies” and the browser should be set to accept these
functions. The setting method will vary depending on the version of browser. Please refer to the help les and the
other information provided in your software.)
Access is gained to the HTTP server function by starting the Web browser on the computer via the network con­nected to the projector and enter the following URL.

Preparation Before Use

Connect the projector to a commercially available LAN cable before engaging in browser operations. See page 22.
Operation with a browser that uses a proxy server may not be possible depending on the type of proxy server and
the setting method. Although the type of proxy server will be a factor, it is possible that items that have actually
been set will not be displayed depending on the effectiveness of the cache, and the contents set from the browser
may not be reected in operation. It is recommended that a proxy server not be used unless it is unavoidable.

6. Maintenance

This section describes the simple maintenance procedures you should follow to clean the lter and replace the lamp.

Cleaning or Replacing the Filter



The air-lter keeps dust and dirt from getting inside the projector and should be frequently cleaned. If the lter is
dirty or clogged, your projector may overheat.

NOTE: The message for filter cleaning will be displayed for one minute after the projector is turned on or off.
To cancel the message, press any button on the projector cabinet or the remote control.

Cleaning the Cabinet and the Lens



1. Turn off the projector before cleaning.

2. Clean the cabinet periodically with a damp cloth. If heavily soiled, use a mild detergent. Never use

strong detergents or solvents such as alcohol or thinner.

3. Use a blower or lens paper to clean the lens, and be careful not to scratch or mar the lens.

6. Maintenance

Replacing the Lamp



When the lamp reaches the end of its life, the LAMP indicator in the cabinet will blink red and the message “Replace
with the new lamp.”* will appear. Even though the lamp may still be working, replace the lamp to maintain the optimal
projector performance. After replacing the lamp, be sure to clear the lamp hour meter. See page 68.

come on or off. For more details, refer to your computer’s owner’s manual.

• Non-standardsignaloutputfromthecomputer

If the output signal from a notebook PC is not an industry standard, the projected image may not be displayed

correctly. Should this happen, deactivate the notebook PC’s LCD screen when the projector display is in use.
Each notebook PC has a different way of deactivate/reactivate the local LCD screens as described in the pre­vious step. Refer to your computer’s documentation for detailed information.

For setting display modes other than those supported by your Macintosh and the projector, changing the DIP

switch on a Mac adapter may bounce an image slightly or may display nothing. Should this happen, set the
DIP switch to the 13” xed mode and then restart your Macintosh. After that, restore the DIP switches to a dis­playable mode and then restart the Macintosh again.

*4 What is HDCP/HDCP technology?
HDCP is an acronym for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. High bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP) is a system for preventing illegal copying of video data sent over a Digital Visual Interface (DVI).
If you are unable to view material via the DVI input, this does not necessarily mean the projector is not functioning
properly.
With the implementation of HDCP, there may be cases in which certain content is protected with HDCP and might
not be displayed due to the decision/intention of the HDCP community (Digital Content Protection, LLC).
