2.0 INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

This unit comes with a optical shift that features vertical and horizontal adjustment of the projection screen position. Adjust the picture to your screen.

• The Vertical Shift level is between -80% and 80% of the Screen Height (0.80 x H).

• The Horizontal Shift level is between -34% and 34% of the Screen Base (0.34 x B).

• The shift level is set to 0% vertically and horizontally by default, that means that the optical lens is aligned with the center of the screen.

• If the projector is not installed vertically, use trapezoidal Correction to fulﬁll your screen.

• If you plan to use both the vertical and horizontal shifts, make sure to not exceed the values contained in the tab below:

Left - Right shift 0% 5% 10% 15% 20% 25% 30% 34%

• Do not wipe with thinner or benzene.

• Do not spray volatile chemicals like insecticide.

• Do not allow prolonged contact with rubber or plastic products.

8.2 Dirt on the Lens

The lens shall be cleaned using commercial blowers or lens cleaning papers (for cleaning glasses and cameras). Do not use ﬂuid-type cleaning agents. This may lead to peeling of the surface coating ﬁlm. The lens surface is fragile. Avoid rubbing it hard or knocking.

8.3 Replacing the Lamp

Light-source Lamp and Lamp Usage Time

The life of light-source lamps used for this unit is about 3000 hours.

• The lamp life of 3000 hours is merely the average life span of light-source lamps and we do not provide any guarantee for this ﬁgure. The lamp life may not reach 3000 hours depending on the operating conditions. Deterioration progresses rapidly when the remaining lamp usage time is short. Get ready or replace with a new lamp when the accumulated usage time exceeds 2900 hours. Depending on the operating conditions, the lamp may have to be exchanged earlier. If the image is dark or color tone abnormal, replace the lamp as soon as possible.

•You can also check the accumulated hours of usage. Please refer to Lamp Time in the Information menu.

When the lamp usage time reaches 2900 hours

The Lamp replacement message will be displayed on the screen the next three projection starts.

• Press the [BACK] button to clear the display.

ABOUT LAMP REPLACEMENT

If this unit is installed in a constricted place, attempting to replace the lamp in that place may cause injury. Move this unit to a place large enough to perform work. Use only genuine replacement parts for the lamp unit. Otherwise, malfunction may occur. Also, never attempt to reuse an old lamp unit. This may cause marked performance deterioration or lamp blowout, thus leading to unit malfunction. Broken pieces of the lamp outside this unit may also cause injuries during lamp unit exchange. Do not replace the lamp immediately after this unit has been used. The temperature of the lamp is still high and this may cause a burn. Allow a cooling period of 1 hour or more before replacement. Before replacing the lamp unit, pull out the power plug from the outlet and wait until the STANDBY/ON led is still light red. Replacing a lamp with the plug connected to the outlet may cause injuries or electric shocks.

Procedure for Lamp Replacement

During the lamp replacement process, you may have access to sensitive parts of the projector.

• Loosen the 2 screws on the lamp trap.

• Open the lamp Cover, at the rear of the projector.

• Loosen the 2 screws on the lamp unit to release it.

• Pull out the lamp unit using the handle.

• Insert the new lamp unit until it is ﬁrmly in place.

8.0 MAINTENANCE

• Tighten the screws of the lamp unit.

• Attach the lamp cover and fasten the two lamp trap screws.

Resetting Lamp Time

After installing a new lamp, reset the lamp time into the OSD menu.

a) Insert plug into the power outlet b) When the projector is in standby mode (red STANDBY/ON led), use the remote control and press sequentially

the [BACK] - [OK] - [HIDE] within 1 second interval then [DOWN] for at least 2 seconds.

c) The sequence is successful if the STANDBY/ON and LAMP leds blink alternately for 3 seconds.

TO ENSURE THE LAMP TIME HAS BEEN RESET

The lamp time can be checked via the Lamp hours item of the Information menu.

CAUTION DURING RESET WORK

Reset the lamp time only when you have replaced the lamp. Never reset it when the lamp is still in use. Otherwise, the approximate standard for gauging replacement time may be inaccurate, lamp performance may deteriorate and lamp blowout may occur.

8.4 Cleaning and Replacing the Dust Filters

The ﬁlters must be cleaned regularly to allow an efﬁcient air intake. Otherwise, dirt may enter the unit and appear on the screen, preventing you from enjoying the video fully. If dirt has entered the unit or if you need information about the ﬁlter, please consult your authorized dealer. A ﬁlter cleaning warning appears every 500 hours.

Pull out the plug from the power outlet

Pull out the power plug from the outlet while the projector is in standby mode.

Remove the ﬁlters

Push up and lift the claw of the ﬁlters, pull out the ﬁlters.

Clean the ﬁlters

Clean the ﬁlters with water and dry them, avoiding direct sunlight. In extremely soiled cases, use of a neutral detergent is recommended.

Reinstall the ﬁlters

Insert the ﬁlters in their original positions and make sure that the claws are ﬁrmly inserted.

Dust Filters

Clean the Dust Filters every 500 hours.

ABOUT WARNINGS AND COOL-DOWN MODE

After projection or when a warning occurred (cases 7-16), the unit will go through a 1 minute cool-down process known as the Cool Down mode. This function is to prevent lamp breakage and shortened lamp life but also damage to the internal components of the projector. The Cool Down mode is indicated by the blinking red STANDBY/ON led. When in Cool Down mode, the projector cannot be turned ON. After the Cool Down process is completed, the unit will automatically switch to the Standby mode indicated by a red STANDBY/ON led.

CAUTION

When in Cool Down mode, do not pull out the plug from the outlet. Also, do not block the air inlets/exhaust vents by standing the projector on its end or laying it on its side.
