Operating Precautions

Lamp Handling Precautions

Continued use of a lamp that has passed its lamp life increases the risk of Caution the lamp rupturing. Replace the lamp with a new one as soon as possible

after the replacement message appears.

zNever touch the glass of the lamp with your fingers. Doing so can damage the lamp and shorten its life.

zThe light source lamp is a consumable item. The average life of a lamp is approximately 2000 hours. After 2000 hours, a message appears to alert you to the need of lamp replacement. However, note that the characteristics of a particular lamp or lamp operating conditions can cause the lamp to start to go dim or even fail before the message appears.

zLamps are guaranteed for 180 days from the date of purchase or for 500 hours operation, whichever comes first.

zA mercury lamp with high internal pressure is used as the light source. A lamp that is weakened by impact, damage, or expiration of its lamp life may explode or fail to light if exposed to loud noise. Note that lamp life differs greatly from lamp to lamp, and is affected by conditions under which the lamp is used.

zThe replacement message appears and the LAMP indicator flashes red after the lamp life is reached. When this happens, replace the lamp using the instructions provided in this User’s Guide.

zIf the lamp continues to be used after its lamp life is reached, after 100 hours the projector will enter a cool down state and then go into standby. The projector will not turn on again until you replace the lamp.

Lamp Replacement Precautions

zWhen the lamp life is reached, the message “It is time to replace the lamp. Use the procedure in the User’s Guide to replace the lamp as soon as possible.” appears on the display for about 10 seconds, and the LAMP indicator starts to flash red in one-second intervals. Replace the lamp as soon as possible after the message appears or the LAMP indicator flashes.

zReplace the lamp with a special replacement lamp, which should be available from your original dealer. Use only the lamp type that is specified for this projector.

XJ-S33/S38 Replacement Lamp	YL-3B

XJ-S43/S48 Replacement Lamp	YL-4B

XJ-S53/S58 Replacement Lamp	YL-5B

XJ-S63/S68 Replacement Lamp	YL-6B

zTurn off the projector. After the POWER/STANDBY indicator changes to steady (not flashing) amber, unplug the projector from the power outlet. Next, wait for at least 60 minutes before removing the lamp. Note that the lamp cartridge becomes very hot during normal use and during standby. Handling it when hot creates the risk of burn injury.

zThe lamp contains mercury. Dispose of old lamps in accordance with the rules and regulations of your local jurisdiction.

zWhen replacing the lamp, use the special screwdriver that comes with the replacement lamp.

●Never leave a dead battery inside the remote controller for a long time.

A dead battery can leak, which leads to malfunction of and damage to the remote controller.

● Clean with a soft, dry cloth.

When very dirty, use a soft cloth that has been dampened in a weak solution of water and a mild neutral detergent. Wring all excess water from the cloth before wiping. Never use thinner, benzine, or any other volatile agent to clean the projector. Doing so can remove its markings and cause staining of the case.

● Missing Screen Dots

Though this projector is manufactured using the most advanced digital technology available today, some of the dots on the screen may be missing. This is normal, and does not indicate malfunction.

● Never subject the projector to strong impact while it is projecting.

If the projector is accidentally subjected to strong impact, the projection image will momentarily go blank. The image will reappear after some time, but it may be the wrong color or it may be accompanied by an error message.

If the projected image is the wrong color, re-select the current input source. If this does not return the projected image to its proper color, use the procedure under “To turn off the projector” on page E-22 to turn projector power off and then back on again.

If the image reappears with an error message, correct the problem in accordance with the indicator explanations in the “Troubleshooting” guide on page E-34.

● Keystone Correction and Image Quality

Performing keystone correction causes the image to be compressed before it is projected. This can result distortion of the image or a loss of image quality. If this happens, change orientation of the projector and/or screen so it conforms as much as possible to the illustration under “Setting Up the Projector” on page E-14.

If image quality is the highest priority, turn off auto keystone correction and position the projector so it is pointed straight at the screen.

English
