Page 11
Ensure that you read the following safeguards when
setting up your projector.
Caution concerning the lamp unit
■ Potential hazard of glass particles if lamp ruptures. In case of lamp rupture, contact your
nearest EIKI Authorized Dealer or Service
Center for replacement. See “Replacing the
Lamp” on page 96.
Caution concerning the setup of the projector
■ For minimal servicing and to maintain high
image quality, EIKI recommends that this projector be installed in an area free from humidity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the
projector is subjected to these environments,
the vents and lens must be cleaned more
often. As long as the projector is regularly
cleaned, use in these environments will not
reduce the overall operation life of the unit.
Internal cleaning should only be performed
by an EIKI Authorized Dealer or Service Center.
Do not set up the projector in places exposed to direct sunlight or bright light.
■ Position the screen so that it is not in direct
sunlight or room light. Light falling directly on
the screen washes out the colors, making
viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim
the lights when setting up the screen in a
sunny or bright room.
The projector may be safely tilted to a
maximum angle of 9 degrees.
■ Placement should be within 9 degrees of
horizontal.
If you have application requiring tilt angle
exceeding 9 degrees, please check with your
local EIKI sales office.
9°
When using the projector in high-altitude
areas such as mountains (at altitudes of
approximately 1,500 meters (4,900 feet)
or more)
■ When you use the projector in high-altitude
areas with thin air, set “Fan Mode” to “High”.
Neglecting this can affect the longevity of the
optical system.
Warning about placing the projector in a
high position
■ When placing the projector in a high position, make certain it is carefully secured to
avoid personal injury caused by the projector falling down.
Do not subject the projector to hard impact and/or vibration.
■ Protect the lens so as not to hit or damage
the surface of the lens.
Rest your eyes occasionally.
■ Continuously watching the screen for long
hours will cause eye strain. Take regular
breaks to rest your eyes.
Avoid locations with extremes of temperature.
■ The operating temperature of the projector
is from 41°F to 104°F (+5°C to +40°C).
■ The storage temperature of the projector is
from –4°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C).

Page 12
Info
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Do not block the intake and exhaust
vents.
■ Allow at least 11 13/16 inches (30 cm) of space
between the exhaust vent and the nearest
wall or obstruction.
■ Be sure that the intake vents and the exhaust
vent are not obstructed.
■ If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a protection circuit will automatically put the projector into standby mode to prevent overheat
damage. This does not indicate a malfunction (See pages 94 and 95.). Remove the pro-
jector power cord from the wall outlet and wait
at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where
the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked,
plug the power cord back in and turn on the
projector. This will return the projector to the
normal operating condition.
Caution regarding usage of the projector
■ When using the projector, take care not to subject it to hard impact and/or vibration, as this
can result in damage. Take extra care with the
lens. If you are not to use the projector for a
long time, make certain you unplug the power
cord from the wall outlet, and disconnect any
other cables connected to it.
■ Do not carry the projector by holding the lens.
■ When storing the projector, ensure you at-
tach the lens cap to the projector. (See page
13.)
■ Do not expose the projector to direct sunlight
or place it near heat sources. Doing so may
affect the cabinet color or cause deformation
of the plastic cover.
Using the projector in other countries
■ The power supply voltage and the shape of
the plug may vary depending on the region
or country you are using the projector in.
When using the projector overseas, make
sure you use an appropriate power cord for
the country you are in.
Temperature monitor function
■
If the projector starts to overheat due to setup problems or
blockage of the air vents, “
and “
the lower left corner of the picture. If the temperature continues to rise, the lamp will turn off,
the temperature warning indicator on the projector will blink, and after a 90-second coolingoff period the projector will enter the standby
mode. Refer to “Maintenance Indicators” on
page 94 for details.
• The cooling fan regulates the internal temperature, and its performance is automatically controlled. The sound of the fan may
change during projector operation due to
changes in the fan speed. This does not
indicate malfunction.
• Even if you unplug the power cord after
projector operation, the cooling fan continues to run for a while. When you place
the projector into the storage case, make
sure that the cooling fan has stopped.
” will illuminate in
”
Other connected equipment
■ When connecting a computer or other audiovisual equipment to the projector, make the
connections AFTER unplugging the power
cord of the projector from the AC outlet and
turning off the equipment to be connected.
■ Please read the owner’s manuals of the projector and the equipment to be connected for
instructions on how to make the connections.

Setting Up the Projector
Setting Up the Projector
For optimal image quality, position the projector perpendicular to the screen with the projector’s feet flat
and level. Doing so will eliminate the need for Keystone correction and provide the best image quality.
Note
• The projector lens should be centered in the middle of the screen. If the horizontal line passing through
the lens center is not perpendicular to the screen, the image will be distorted, making viewing difficult.
• For an optimal image, position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling
directly on the screen washes out the colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights
when setting up the projector in a sunny or bright room.
Standard Setup (Front Projection)
■ Place the projector at the required distance from the screen according to the desired picture size. (For
details, refer to “SETUP MANUAL” contained on the supplied CD-ROM.)
Indication of the Projection Image Size and Projection Distance
For details, refer to “SETUP MANUAL” contained on the supplied CD-ROM.

Maintenance
Cleaning the projector
■ Ensure that you have unplugged the power cord
before cleaning the projector.
■ The cabinet as well as the operation panel is made
of plastic. Avoid using benzene or thinner, as these
can damage the finish on the cabinet.
■ Do not use volatile agents such as insecticides on
the projector.
Do not attach rubber or plastic items to the projector for long periods.
The effects of some of the agents in the plastic may
cause damage to the quality or finish of the projector.
Mild detergent
Mild detergent
diluted with water
Cleaning the air vents and the intake vent cover
■ Use a vacuum cleaner to clean dust from the exhaust vent, the intake vents and the intake vent
cover (on the bottom of the projector).
• If you want to clean the air vents and the intake
vent cover during projector operation, ensure
you press
remote control and put the projector into standby
mode. After the cooling fan has stopped, unplug
the power cord from the AC socket and clean
the air vents and the intake vent cover.

on the
Thinner
Wax
■ Wipe off dirt gently with a soft flannel cloth.
■ When the dirt is hard to remove, soak a cloth in a
mild detergent diluted with water, wring the cloth
well and then wipe the projector.
Strong cleaning detergents may discolor, warp or
damage the coating on the projector. Make sure to
test on a small, inconspicuous area on the projector before use.
Cleaning the lens
■ Use a commercially available blower or lens cleaning paper (for glasses and camera lenses) for cleaning the lens. Do not use any liquid type cleaning
agents, as they may wear off the coating film on the
surface of the lens.
■ As the surface of the lens can easily get damaged,
be careful not to scrape or hit the lens.
Cleaning the intake vent cover
Note
Cleaning
Paper
•
The air vents and the intake vent cover should be
cleaned every 100 hours of use. Clean the air vents
and the intake vent cover more often when the projector is used in a dusty or smoky location.
•
Ensure that the intake vent cover is securely installed. The power will not turn on unless it is correctly installed.

Info
• If the temperature warning indicator blinks and the projector enters the standby mode, the temperature
warning indicator starts to illuminate. Check whether any of the ventilation holes are blocked (see page 10)
and then try turning the power back on. Wait until the projector has cooled down completely before
plugging in the power cord and turning the power back on. (At least 10 minutes.)
• If the power is turned off for a brief moment due to power outage or some other cause while using the
projector, and the power supply recovers immediately after that, the lamp indicator will illuminate in red
and the lamp may not be lit. In this case, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet, replace the power
cord in the AC outlet and then turn the power on again.
• The cooling fan keeps the internal temperature of the projector constant and this function is controlled
automatically. The sound of the cooling fan may change during operation because the fan speed may
change and this is not a malfunction.

Regarding the Lamp
Lamp
■ It is recommended that the lamp units (optional: AH-50001 and AH-50002) be replaced when the remaining lamp life becomes 5% or less, or when you notice a significant deterioration in the picture
and color quality. The lamp life (percentage) can be checked with the on-screen display. See page 83.
■ Purchase a replacement lamp unit of type AH-50001 and AH-50002 from your place of purchase,
nearest EIKI Authorized Dealer or Service Center.
Hg LAMP CONTAINS MERCURY For State Lamp Disposal Information
www.lamprecycle.org or 1-800-242-3454
Caution Concerning the Lamp
■ This projector utilizes a pressurized mercury lamp. A loud sound may indicate lamp failure. Lamp
failure can be attributed to numerous sources such as: excessive shock, improper cooling, surface
scratches or deterioration of the lamp due to a lapse of usage time.
The period of time up to failure largely varies depending on the individual lamp and/or the condition
and the frequency of use. It is important to note that failure can often result in the bulb cracking.
■ When the lamp indicator and on-screen display icon are illuminated, it is recommended that the
lamp be replaced with a new one immediately, even if the lamp appears to be operating normally.
■ Should the lamp break, the glass particles may spread inside the lamp cage or gas contained in the
lamp may be vented into the room from the exhaust vent. Because the gas in this lamp includes
mercury, ventilate the room well if the lamp breaks and avoid all exposure to the released gas. In
case of exposure to the gas, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
■ Should the lamp break, there is also a possibility that glass particles may spread inside of the
projector. In such a case, it is recommended you contact your nearest EIKI Authorized Dealer or
Service Center to assure safe operation.
U.S.A. ONLY
Replacing the Lamp
Caution
• Do not remove the lamp unit from the projector right after use. The lamp will be very hot and may cause burn

• Wait at least one hour after the power cord is disconnected to allow the surface of the lamp unit to fully cool
before removing the lamp unit.
■ Carefully change the lamp by following the instructions described in this section. *If you wish, you
may have the lamp replaced at your nearest EIKI Authorized Dealer or Service Center.
* If the new lamp does not illuminate after replacement, take your projector to the nearest EIKI Authorized
Dealer or Service Center for repair.
