Press the Auto Image button. If that doesn't help (and the source is a computer),

reduce your computer's display resolution or vertical refresh rate.

If the replace lamp light is on

Turn the projector off and wait at least one minute, then turn it on again. If the

replace lamp light turns on again, the lamp needs to be replaced. For lamp
replacement instructions, see the Reference Guide, which is on the included
CD-ROM or can be downloaded at

If the high temperature light is on

Turn the projector off and remove anything that may be blocking the air vents

on its side. Leave the projector off for at least one minute to let it cool before

turning it on again. Important: Continuous operation at high temperature may
reduce the lifetime of the lamp and/or projector.

If the service required light is on

Turn the projector off and wait at least one minute, then turn it on again. If the

service required light turns on again, the projector needs to be serviced. See
below for service contact information.

Important Operating Considerations for Safety

• Place the projector in a horizontal position no greater than 15 degrees
off axis.

• Locate the projector in a well-ventilated area without any obstructions
to intake or exhaust vents. Do not place the projector on a tablecloth or
other soft covering that may block the vents.

• Locate the projector at least 4' (1.2 m) away from any heating or cooling
vents.

• Use only InFocus-approved ceiling mounts.

• Use only the power cord provided. A surge-protected power strip is
recommended.

• Refer to this guide for proper startup and shutdown procedures.

• Warning : Hg – Lamp contains mercury. Manage in accordance with
local disposal laws. See www.lamprecycle.org.

• In the unlikely event of a lamp rupture, particles may exit through the
projector side vents. When the projector is turned on, keep people,
food, and drinks out of the "keep out" area under and around the pro
jector, as indicated by the "X" areas below.
