Safety Instructions

Air Circulation

Openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered.

CAUTION

Hot air is exhausted from the exhaust vent. When using or installing the projector, the following precautions should be taken.

–Do not put any flammable object or spray can near the projector, hot air is exhausted from the air vents.

–Keep the exhaust vent at least 3’ (1 m) away from any objects.

–Do not touch peripheral parts of the exhaust vent, especially screws and metallic parts. These areas will become hot while the projector is being used.

–Do not put anything on the cabinet. Objects put on the cabinet will not only get damaged but also may cause fire hazard by heat.

Cooling fans are provided to cool down the projector. The fans’ running speed is changed according to the temperature inside the projector.

Exhaust Vent (Hot air exhaust)

Air flow

IMPORTANT!

Filter Maintenance!!

The projector uses a lamp which generates significant heat. The cooling fans and air vents are provided to dissipate the heat by drawing air into the housing and the filter is located in the intake vents to prevent dust from getting inside of the projector.

In order to care for the projector appropriately, regular cleaning is required. Remove any dirt or dust that has accumulated on the projector.

If the projector reaches a time set in the timer setting, a Filter replacement icon (Fig. 1) appears on the screen and WARNING FILTER indicator on the top panel lights up (see below), indicating that the filter replacement is necessary.

If the projector detects that the filter is clogged and no scroll is left in the filter cartridge, a Filter cartridge replacement icon (Fig. 2) appears on the screen and WARNING FILTER indicator on the top panel lights up (see below). Stop using the projector immediately and replace the filter cartridge.

Blocking the air vents and leaving the projector uncleaned for a long time may not only damage the projector and may require costly repairs but may also cause accidents or fire.

For maintenance of the filter, refer to “Filter counter” on page 60 and “Maintenance and Care” on pages 61–63.

Damages to the projector caused by using an uncleaned filter or improper maintenance will void the warranty on the projector..

Remote Control Receivers and Operating Range

Point the remote control toward the projector (to Infrared Remote Receivers) when pressing the buttons. Maximum operating range for the remote control is about 16.4’ (5 m) and 60 degrees in front and rear of the projector.

Infrared Remote Receivers are provided both in front and back of the projector. You can conveniently use both of the receivers (pp. 10, 56).

Note:

• When hanging the projector from the ceiling, select the Infrared Remote Receiver which is located farther away from the fluorescent light (p.56).

16.4’ (5 m)

16.4’ (5 m)

Wired Remote Control Transmitter

The remote control can be used as a wired remote control. Wired remote control helps you use the remote control outside of the operating range (16.4’/ 5 m). Connect the remote control and

the projector with the remote control cable. Connected with the remote control cable, the remote control does not emit wireless signal.

Part Names and Functions

Remote Control Code

The eight different remote control codes (Code 1–Code 8) are assigned to this projector. Switching the remote control codes prevents interference from other remote controls when several projectors or video equipment next to each other are operated at the same time. Change the remote control code for the projector first before changing that for the remote control. See “Remote control” in the Setting Menu on page 55.

1	Press and hold the MENU and a number button (1–8)
	for more than five seconds to switch between the

NOTES ON LENS INSTALLATION

●Do not touch or remove any parts except the lens and related parts. It may result in malfunctions, electrical shock, fire hazard or other accidents.

Installation

Focus correction

When the lens is attached to the projector and images are being projected onto the screen, the peripheral focus may be out of focus in some localized areas. If this happens, insert the one, of three sizes of spacers, in between the Lens Attachment and the lens to adjust the focus.

Inserting the Spacer corrects the distance on the Lens Adjustment and improves the diagonal focus.

The corrected distance is determined by the thickness of the used spacers. As a guide, the distance is adjusted by approximately 30 mm for each 0.1-mm thickness of the spacers.

There are three types of spacers provided, and there are four of each spacer type. Use these spacers to correct the distance as required.

	Spacer "1"	Correction distance

	Thickness; 0.1 mm	projection

Installation

Connecting the AC Power Cord

This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100–120 V or 200– 240 V AC and it automatically selects the correct input voltage. It is designed to work with single-phase power systems having a grounded neutral conductor. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not plug into any other type of power system.

If you are not sure of the type of power being supplied, consult your authorized dealer or service station.

Connect the projector with all peripheral equipment before turning on the projector.

CAUTION

The AC outlet must be near this equipment and must be easily accessible.

Note:

•Unplug the AC power cord when the projector is not in use. When the projector is connected to an outlet with AC power cord, it is in stand-by mode and consumes a little electric power.

Connect the AC power cord (supplied) to the projector.

NOTE ON THE POWER CORD

AC power cord must meet the requirements of the country where you use the projector.

Confirm the AC plug type with the chart below and proper AC power cord must be used.

If the supplied AC power cord does not match your AC outlet, contact your sales dealer.

4	After the countdown, the input source that was
	selected the last time and the Lamp control status icon

(see page 55) appear on the screen.

If the projector is locked with a PIN code, PIN code

Input Dialog Box will appear. Enter the PIN code as instructed below.

Enter a PIN code

Use the Point ed buttons on the side control or Number buttons on the remote control to enter a number.

When using side control

Use the Point ed buttons on the side control to select a number. Press the Point 8 button to fix the number and move the red frame pointer to the next box. The number changes to “ .” Repeat this step to complete entering a four-digit number. After entering the four-digit number, move the pointer to “Set.” Press the SELECT button so that you can start to operate the projector.

When using remote control

Press the Number buttons on the remote control to enter a number (p.15). When you complete entering a four-digit number, the pointer moves to “Set.” Press the SELECT button so that you can start to operate the projector.
