After projection or when warning occurred, the heated lamp will go through a 2 minutes cool-down process known as the Cool Down mode. This function is to prevent damage and deformation from the heated lamp may cause to the internal components of the projector. It also prevents lamp breakage and shortened lamp life. The Cool Down mode is indicated by the blinking Status green 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.
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.

Three preset picture modes are available and they can be applied to any input. A picture mode retains the following settings that are applied to the selected input:
•Brightness
Contrast
Color
Hue
Sharpness
Color temperature
Gamma mode
Lens Aperture
Detail enhancement settings Additionally, you can define 3 user modes to finely tune the projector to your video source and the ambient light.

Picture Adjustment

6.2.0.1 Brightness
The brightness function is used to adjust the overall light output. Adjust the Brightness value between 0 and 100.
6.2.0.2 Contrast
The contrast function is used to adjust the contrast between the light and dark areas of the displayed image. A correct contrast setting is important for good image reproduction. Adjust the Contrast value between 0 and 100.
6.2.0.3 Color
The Color function (or Saturation) is used to adjust the color saturation levels. Adjust the Color value between 0 and
100.
6.2.0.4 Hue
The hue function is used to adjust the color tint to obtain true color reproduction. Adjust the Tint value between 0 (more red) and +100 (more green).
6.2.0.5 Sharpness
The Sharpness function is used to adjust the image sharpness of the picture. Adjust the Sharpness value between 0 (soft) and 100 (sharper).
6.2.0.6 Color Temperature
Color temperature stands for the spectral properties of a light source. Low color temperature implies warmer ambiance (more yellow/red) while high color temperature implies a colder light (more blue). Color temperature can be set to Low, Medium, High and User. The User setting allows a fine adjustment of the Gains and Bias values for red, green, and blue channels and a
correct black and white balance.
Accurate picture calibrations may require professional tools such as dedicated software and colormeter. Wait at least 20 minutes after startup before modifying the picture settings.

Gamma

Gamma is the relationship between the color values of the data and the color values displayed. The Gamma coefficient makes it possible to adjust the brightness of the midtones only without affecting the very bright and very dark areas. If gamma is set too high, middle tones appear too dark. If it's set too low, middle tones appear too light. The Gamma correction factor can be set to:
Gamma 1 this setting is recommended with computer sources.
Gamma 2 for standard viewing.
Gamma 3 for movie projection.
Gamma 4: this setting is recommended for dark room.
Gamma 5 features a fine adjustment of the gamma response on the complete 0-100 IRE scale for untypical light environment. This setting can be modified by certified installers.

8.0 MAINTENANCE

8.1 Clean Dirt on the Cabinet

Always use a soft cloth. In case of heavy soiling, soak a cloth in neutral detergent diluted with water, wring dry and wipe, followed by wiping again using a dry cloth.

Caution

Pay attention to the following as the cabinet may deteriorate in condition, get damaged or paint may come off.
Do not wipe with a stiff cloth.
Do not wipe with force.
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 2000 hours.
The lamp life of 2000 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 2000 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 1700 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 of the Information menu.
When the lamp usage time reaches 1700 hours
The Lamp replacement message will be displayed on the screen the next three projection starts.
Press the [ESC] 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 while the [POWER] 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 and pull it upwards.
Loosen the 2 screws on the lamp unit and lift up the handle.
Pull out the lamp unit.
Insert the new lamp unit until it is fully in.
R699763 - Dream E User Manual 31
Page 32
8.0 MAINTENANCE
Tighten the screws of the lamp unit and close the handle.
Attach the lamp cover and fasten the 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) Switch on the projector and browse into the menu: “Menu => Initial Setup => Lamp timer reset”
c) Confirm the timer reset by pressing again the [OK] button.
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. If a filter is extremely dirty and cannot be cleaned, or if it is damaged, replace the filter with a new one. Otherwise, dirt may enter the unit and appear on the screen, preventing you from enjoying the video fully. A filter cleaning warning appears every 500 hours of usage.

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 to pull out the filters.
Clean the filters
