Arrangement
Refer to tables T-1 and gures F-1 and F-2 at the end of this manual to determine the
screen size and projection distance.
The values shown in the table are calculated for a full size screen.
a
Screen size (diagonal)
b1 , b2
Projection distance (±8%)
c1 , c2
Screen height (±8%)
• For the case of installation in special conditions such as on the wall or ceiling, the
specied mounting accessories (21) and service may be required. Tabletop use must
be set up with the designated optional accessories (21). Before installing the projector,
consult your dealer about your installation.
• The screen position may shift after installation if the projector is mounted on locations
such as the wall or ceiling, due to the exibility of the plastic projector body. If readjustment
is necessary, consult with your dealer or service personnel.
• The projected image position and/or focus may change during warm-up (approx. 30
minutes after the lamp is turned on) or when the ambient conditions change. Readjust
the image position and/or focus as necessary.
• Since the projector features an ultra short throw, be aware that it is required to select a
screen carefully to have better performance.
- A soft screen such as a pull-down screen may cause serious distortion of a projected
image. A hard screen such as a board screen is recommended for use with this projector.
- A high-gain screen such as a bead screen that has narrow viewing angle is not suitable
for this projector. A low-gain screen (around 1.0) such as a matte screen that has wide
viewing angle is recommended for use with this projector.
-
A screen with a weave pattern may cause moiré on the projected image, which is not a failure
of the projector. A screen that has less moiré effects is recommended for use with this projector.
WARNING ►Install the projector in a stable horizontal position.
►Place the projector in a cool place, and ensure that there is sufcient ventilation.
Keep a space of 30 cm or more between the sides of the projector and other
objects such as walls. Do not place or attach anything that would block the
projection window or vent holes. Do not place the projector where the air from an air
conditioner or similar unit will blow on it directly.
►Do not place the projector anyplace where it may get wet.
Use only the mounting accessories the manufacturer specied, and leave installing

WARNING ►
The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp

can break with a loud bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, handled while hot, or
worn over time. Note that each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or
burn out soon after you start using them. In addition, if the bulb bursts, it is possible
for shards of glass to y into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercury and
dust containing ne particles of glass to escape from the projector’s vent holes.
►About disposal of a lamp: This product contains a mercury lamp; do not put
it in a trash. Dispose of it in accordance with environmental laws.
• For lamp recycling, go to www.lamprecycle.org (in the US).
• For product disposal, consult your local government agency
or www.eiae.org (in the US) or www.epsc.ca (in Canada).
For more information, ask your dealer.
• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does),
unplug the power cord from the outlet, and make sure to request a
replacement lamp from your local dealer. Note that shards of glass
could damage the projector’s internals, or cause injury during handling,
so please do not try to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.

• Before replacing the lamp, turn the projector off and unplug the power
outlet
cord, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool sufficiently.
Handling the lamp while hot can cause burns, as well as damaging the lamp.
• Never unscrew except the appointed (marked by an arrow) screws.
•
Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is mounted on a wall or ceiling.
This is dangerous, since if the lamp’s bulb has broken, the shards will fall out
when the cover is opened. In addition, working in high places is dangerous, so
ask your local dealer to have the lamp replaced even if the bulb is not broken.
• Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed. At the lamp
replacing, make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose
screws could result in damage or injury.
• Use only the lamp of the specied type. Use of a lamp that does not
meet the lamp specications for this model could cause a re, damage or
shorten the life of this product.
• If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, it is possible
that there are electrical problems elsewhere besides the lamp. If this
happens, consult your local dealer or a service representative.
•
Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst during use.
• Using the lamp for long periods of time, could cause it dark, not to light
up or to burst. When the pictures appear dark, or when the color tone
is poor, please replace the lamp as soon as possible. Do not use old
(used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.
16
Cleaning and replacing the air lter
The air lter has two kinds of lters inside. Please check and clean the air lter periodically.
When the indicators or a message prompts you to clean the air lter, comply with it as soon
as possible. If the lters are damaged or heavily soiled, replace them with the new ones. To
prepare the new lters, make contact with your dealer and tell the following type number.
Type number : UX37191 (Filter set)
