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.

Air Intake Vent

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 62 and “Maintenance and Care” on pages 63-65.

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, back and top of the projector.

Infrared Remote Receivers are provided in front, back and top of of the projector. You can conveniently use all of the receivers (pp. 10, 11, 57).

Note:

When hanging the projector from the ceiling, select the Infrared Remote Receiver which is located farther away from the fluorescent light (p.57).

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 (supplied). Connected with the remote control cable, the remote control does not emit wireless signal.

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.

Note:

•The Lamp replacement icon and the Filter replacement or the Filter cartridge replacement icon may appear on the screen depending on the usage state of the projector.

•When the filter cartridge replacement icon keeps appearing on the screen at turning on the projector for some time and no action is taken to replace the filter cartridge, the projector will be automatically shut down in 3 minutes after turning on to protect the projector. (pp. 63-65, 78)

Enter a PIN code

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

When using side control

Use the Point ▲▼ buttons on the side control to select a number. Press the Point ► 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.14). 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.

If you fixed an incorrect number, use the Point ◄ button to move the pointer to the number you want to correct, and then enter the correct number.

If you entered an incorrect PIN code, “PIN code” and the number () will turn red for a moment. Enter the correct PIN code all over again.

PIN Code Input Dialog Box

After the OK icon disappears, you can operate the projector.

Note:

•If the PIN code number is not entered within three minutes after the PIN code dialog box appeared, the projector will be turned off automatically.

•The "1234" is set as the initial PIN code at the factory.

23

Basic Operation

What is PIN code?

PIN (Personal Identification Number) code is a security code that allows the person who knows it to operate the projector. Setting a PIN code prevents unauthorized use of the projector.

A PIN code consists of a four-digit number. Refer to the PIN code lock function in the Setting Menu on page 59-60 for locking operation of the projector with your PIN code.

CAUTION ON HANDLING PIN CODE

If you forget your PIN code, the projector can no longer be started. Take a special care in setting a new PIN code; write down the number in a column on page 84 of this manual and keep it on hand. Should the PIN code be missing or forgotten, consult your dealer or service center.

Turning Off the Projector

Press the ON/STAND-BY button on the side control or the STAND-BY button on the remote control, and Power off? appears on the screen.

Press the ON/STAND-BY button on the side control or the STAND-BY button on the remote control again to turn off the projector. The LAMP indicator lights bright and the POWER indicator turns off. After the projector is turned off, the cooling fans operate for 90 seconds. You cannot turn on the projector during this cooling down period.

When the projector has cooled down enough, the POWER indicator lights green and then you can turn on the projector. To unplug the AC power cord, wait until the projector is completely cooled down.

TO MAINTAIN THE LIFE OF THE LAMP, ONCE YOU TURN THE PROJECTOR ON, WAIT AT LEAST FIVE MINUTES BEFORE TURNING IT OFF.

DO NOT UNPLUG THE AC POWER CORD WHILE COOLING FANS ARE RUNNING OR BEFORE THE POWER INDICATOR LIGHTS GREEN AGAIN.

OTHERWISE IT WILL RESULT IN SHORTENING OF THE LAMP LIFE.

DO NOT OPERATE THE PROJECTOR CONTINUOUSLY WITHOUT REST. CONTINUOUS USE MAY RESULT

IN SHORTENING THE LAMP LIFE. TURN OFF THE PROJECTOR AND LET STAND FOR ABOUT AN HOUR IN EVERY 24 HOURS.

Power off? disappears after 4 seconds.

Note:

•When the On start function is set to On, the projector will be turned on automatically by connecting the AC power cord to an AC outlet (p.58).

•The running speed of cooling fans is changed according to the temperature inside the projector.

•Do not put the projector in a case before the projector is cooled enough.

•If the WARNING TEMP. indicator blinks red, see “Warning Indicators” on page 69.

•The projector cannot be turned on during the cooling period with the POWER indicator turned off. You can turn it on again after the POWER indicator becomes green again.
