Do not start at high volume.
A sudden excessive volume may cause loss of

Using the Mail Notification Function to Report Problems
By setting the Mail Notification function from the projector's Configuration
Menu, notification messages will be sent to the preset Email Addresses
when a problem or warning occurs with a projector. This will enable the
operator to be notified of problems with projectors even at locations away
from the projectors.
• Up to a maximum of three notification destinations (Addresses) can
q
be recorded, and notification messages can be sent to all three
destinations at once.
• If a projector develops a critical problem and suddenly stops
working, it may not be able to send a message notifying an operator
of the problem.
• Monitoring is possible if Communication On is set from the
Extended menu of the projector's Configuration Menu, even if theprojector is in Standby Mode (when the power is off).

Management Using SNMP
By setting SNMP from the projector's Configuration Menu, notification
messages are sent to preset computers when a problem or warning occurs
with a projector. This is useful when controlling projectors collectively at a
point distant from them.
• SNMP should be managed by a network administrator or someone
q
who is familiar with the network.
• The SNMP function to monitor projectors requires SNMP Manager
to be installed on the computer.
• The managing function using SNMP cannot be used via a Wireless
LAN in Quick Connection Mode.
• Up to two destination IP addresses can be saved.

This mechanism prevents communication unless the encrypted keys for the access point and the projector match.
WPA/WPA2: This is an encryption standard that improves security which is a weak point of WEP. Although there are multiple kinds of WPA
encryption methods, this projector uses "TKIP" and "AES".

If the indicators do not show clearly what the problem might be, refer to "When the Indicators Provide No Help".
Reading the Indicators
The projector is provided with the following three indicators that indicate the operating status of the projector.

The lamp turns off automatically and projection stops. Wait for about five minutes. After about five minutes the projector switches to
standby mode, so check the following two points.
• Check that the air filter and Air exhaust vent are clear, and that the projector is not positioned against a wall.
• If the air filter is clogged, clean or replace it. s p.94,p.99

Appendix
This chapter provides information on maintenance procedures to ensure the best level of performance from the projector for a long time to come.
Installation Methods
93
The projector supports the following four different projection methods.
Install according to the conditions of the installation location.
Warning
•
A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from
a ceiling (ceiling mount). If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an
accident and injury.
•
If you use adhesives on the Ceiling mount fixing points to prevent the screws
from loosening, or if you use things such as lubricants or oils on the projector,
the projector case may crack causing it to fall from its ceiling mount. This
could cause serious injury to anyone under the ceiling mount and could
damage the projector.
When installing or adjusting the Ceiling mount, do not use adhesives to
prevent the screws from loosening and do not use oils or lubricants and so
on.
Attention
Do not use the projector on its side. This may cause malfunctions to occur.
• Project images from front of the

Cleaning
94
You should clean the projector if it becomes dirty or if the quality of
projected images starts to deteriorate.
Cleaning the Projector's Surface
Clean the projector's surface by wiping it gently with a soft cloth.
If the projector is particularly dirty, moisten the cloth with water containing
a small amount of neutral detergent, then firmly wring the cloth to wipe the
projector's surface, and then finish by wiping with a dry cloth.
Attention
Do not use volatile substances such as wax, alcohol, or thinner to clean the
projector's surface. The quality of the case may change or become discolored.
Cleaning the Lens
Use a commercially available cloth for cleaning glasses to gently wipe the
lens.
Cleaning the Air filter
Clean the air filter and the Air intake vent when the following message is
displayed.
"The projector is overheating. Make sure nothing is blocking the air vent,and clean or replace the air filter."
Attention
•
If dust collects on the air filter it can cause the internal temperature of the
projector to rise, and this can lead to problems with operation and shorten the
optical engine's service life. Clean the air filter immediately when the message
is displayed.
•
Do not rinse the air filter in water. Do not use detergents or solvents.
Warning
Do not use sprays that contain flammable gas to remove dust and lint from the
lens. The projector may catch fire due to the high internal temperature of the
lamp.
Attention
Do not rub the lens with harsh materials or subject the lens to shocks, as it
can easily become damaged.
q
• If a message is frequently displayed, even after cleaning, it is time to
replace the air filter. Replace it with a new air filter. s p.99
• It is recommended that you clean these parts at least once every
three months. Clean them more often than this if using the projector
in a particularly dusty environment.
Replacing Consumables
This section explains how to replace the Remote Control batteries, the
Lamp, and the air filter.
Replacing the Remote Control Batteries
If delays in the responsiveness of the Remote Control occur or if it does not
operate after it has been used for some time, it probably means that the
batteries are becoming flat. When this happens, replace them with new
batteries. Have two AA size manganese or alkaline batteries ready. You
cannot use other batteries except for the AA size manganese or alkaline.
Attention
Make sure you read the Safety Instructions before handling the batteries.
s
Safety Instructions
95
Caution
Check the positions of the (+) and (-) marks inside the battery holder to ensure
the batteries are inserted the correct way.
Procedure
A
B
Remove the battery cover.
While pushing the battery compartment cover catch, lift the cover
up.
Replace the old batteries with new batteries.
C
Attach the battery cover.
Press the battery compartment cover until it clicks into place.
Replacing the Lamp
Lamp replacement period
It is time to replace the Lamp when:
Replacing Consumables
96
• The message "Replace the lamp." is displayed when you start projecting.
A message is displayed.
• The Lamp indicator flashes orange.
Attention
•
The lamp replacement message is set to appear after the following time periods
in order to maintain the initial brightness and quality of the projected images.
s
p.60
When Power Consumption is set to Normal: About 4900 hours
When Power Consumption is set to ECO: About 5900 hours
•
If you continue to use the Lamp after the replacement period has passed, the
possibility that the lamp may explode increases. When the Lamp replacement
message appears, replace the Lamp with a new one as soon as possible, even if
it is still working.
•
Do not repeatedly turn off the power and immediately back on. Turning the
power on and off frequently may shorten the lamp's operating life.
•
Depending on the characteristics of the Lamp and the way it has been used,
the lamp may become darker or stop working before the lamp warning message
appears. You should always have a spare lamp unit ready in case it is
needed.
How to replace the lamp
The Lamp can be replaced even when the projector is suspended from a
ceiling.
• The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.
Warning
•
When replacing the Lamp because it has stopped illuminating, there is a
possibility that the Lamp may be broken. If replacing the Lamp of a projector
which has been installed on the ceiling, you should always assume that the
Lamp is broken, and you should stand to the side of the Lamp cover, not
underneath it. Remove the Lamp cover gently.
•
Never disassemble or remodel the Lamp. If a remodeled or reassembled Lamp
is installed into the projector and used, it could cause a fire, electric shock, or
an accident.
Replacing Consumables
Caution
Wait until the Lamp has cooled down sufficiently before removing the Lamp
cover. If the lamp is still hot, burns or other injuries may result. It takes about
one hour after the power has been turned off for the Lamp to be cool enough.
Procedure
