• It is better to keep the volume level low and close the windows at night to protect the
neighborhood environment.
Connecting with notebook computer
When connecting with notebook computer, set to valid the RGB external image output (setting CRT display or simultaneous display of LCD and CRT). Please read instruction manual of the notebook for more information.
Lamp
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, when the bulb bursts, it is possible for shards of glass to fly into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercury to escape from the projector’s vent holes.
About disposal of a lamp • This product contains a mercury lamp; do not put in trash. Dispose of in accord with environmental laws. For lamp recycling, go to www.lamprecycle.org. (in USA) For product disposal, contact your local government agency or www.eiae.org (in the US) or www.epsc.ca (in Canada). For more information, call 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.
Disconnect
the plug from
the power
outlet
• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), ventilate the room well, and make sure not to breathe the gas that comes out of the projector vents, or get it in your eyes or mouth.
• Before replacing the lamp, make sure the power switch is off and the power cable is not plugged in, 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.
HIGH VOLTAGE HIGH TEMPERATURE HIGH PRESSURE
• Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is suspended from above. 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 the lamp of the specified type only.
• 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, contact 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.

NOTE
• Be sure to read the manuals for devices before connecting them to the projector, and make sure that all the devices are suitable to be connected with this product. Before connecting to a PC, check the signal level, the signal timing, and the resolution.
- Some signal may need an adapter to input this projector.
- Some PCs have multiple screen display modes that may include some signals
which are not supported by this projector.
- Although the projector can display signals with resolution up to UXGA
(1600X1200), the signal will be converted to the projector’s panel resolution before being displayed. The best display performance will be achieved if the resolutions of the input signal and the projector panel are identical.
• While connecting, make sure that the shape of the cable's connector ts the port to connect with. And be sure to tighten the screws on connectors with screws.
• When connecting a laptop PC to the projector, be sure to activate the PC’s external RGB output. (Set the laptop PC to CRT display or to simultaneous LCD and CRT display.) For details on how this is done, please refer to the instruction manual of the corresponding laptop PC.
• When the picture resolution is changed on a PC depending on an input, automatic adjustment function may take some time and may not be completed. In this case, you may not be able to see a check box to select “Yes/No” for the new resolution on Windows. Then the resolution will go back to the original. It might be recommended to use other CRT or LCD monitors to change the resolution.
• In some cases, this projector may not display a proper picture or display any picture on screen. For example, automatic adjustment may not function correctly with some input signals. An input signal of composite sync or sync on G may confuse this projector, so the projector may not display a proper picture.

About the remote control signal
The remote control works with the projector’s remote sensor. This projector has a remote sensor on the front. The sensor senses the signal within the following range when the sensor is active:
60 degrees (30 degrees to the left and right of the sensor) within 3 meters about.
NOTE
If it is difcult to send the signal to the sensor directly, attempt to make the signal reect.
• The remote control uses infrared light to send signals to the projector (Class 1 LED), so be sure to use the remote control in an area free from obstacles that could block the remote control’s signal to the projector.
The remote control may not work correctly if strong light (such as direct sun
• light) or light from an extremely close range (such as from an inverter uorescent lamp) shines on the remote sensor of the projector. Adjust the position of projector avoiding those lights.
The remote control signal reected in the screen or the like may be available.
