WARNING emitting a red light

Maintenance and Cleaning

Cleaning the RGB panels

Blemishes such as dust and dirt on the internal optical components of the projector tend to degrade the brightness of the screen and are likely to appear as a shadow on the screen, which can lead to deterioration of image quality.

This projector is equipped with the RGB panel cleaning holes on the underside for cleaning of the internal parts (such as optical components) of the projector. When you use the projector for a lengthy period of time or a shadow of dust appears on the projected screen, clean the inside of the projector.

Using the supplied air blower and with the Cleaning function in the Setting Menu (p.38), you can remove the dusts from the projector.

CAUTION IN USING THE AIR BLOWER AND THE NOZZLE

● Turn the projector over when using the blower.

● Use only the supplied air blower and nozzle to keep the projector from being out of oder or

damaged. We could not guarantee the malfunction or breakage caused by other tools.

● Never use a commercially available compressed air duster. It causes the interior of the projector to malfunction with release of cold liquid propellant.

● Put the projector on a soft cloth to prevent scratching the surface.

● Open the hole cover only when you clean the inside of the projector.

● Do not look into the holes. A strong light could damage your eyes. (Do not look into the Air intake

vent and Exhaust vent, either.)

● Use the blower and nozzle only to clean the projector. Do not attempt to use them for other purposes. Do not use the blower and nozzle against persons (particularly to eyes, mouth or ear, and so on). Be especially careful to ensure that children do not put the blower and nozzle into their mouth and swallow them.

● Do not attempt to pull the nozzle out of the blower. If the nozzle happened to be pulled out, put it back into the blower immediately.

● Do not use the blower supplied with this projector (Z4) to clean the Z3 and Z1X.

In the unlikely event that something goes wrong (smoke, a strange sound, an abnormal odor, and such) while you are cleaning, turn off and unplug the projector immediately, then call the dealer where you purchased the projector or service center.

✔Note:

• Dust might not be removed completely with these steps. In that case, contact the dealer where you purchased the projector or service center.

If the nozzle is pulled out ....

The nozzle has the stopper. Put the stopper-side of the nozzle into the blower. Put the nozzle firmly into the blower until the stopper becomes invisible. When putting the nozzle into the blower, hold near the stopper so that it will not break. Make sure not to attempt to pull the nozzle out of the blower.

This projector uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly. Improper handling may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.

● Lamp lifetime may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no

guarantee of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their lifetime in a shorter period of time than other similar lamps.

● If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if the LAMP REPLACE indicator lights

up, replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the projector has cooled down. (Follow carefully the instructions in the Lamp Replacement section of this manual.) Continuous use of the lamp with the LAMP REPLACE indicator lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.

● A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its

lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or conditions in which the projector and lamp are being used.

IF A LAMP EXPLODES, THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN.

If a lamp explodes, disconnect the projector’s AC plug from the AC outlet immediately. Contact an authorized service station for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp. Additionally, check carefully to ensure that there are no broken shards or pieces of glass around the projector or coming out from the cooling air circulation holes. Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully. No one should check the inside of the projector except those who are authorized trained technicians and who are familiar with projector service. Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those who are not appropriately trained to do so, may result in an accident or injury caused by pieces of broken glass.
