auditorium or relatively bright place without using a heavy-duty projector.

CAUTION

T o pre v ent damage to the projector during shipment, a shift center lock pin was used to fix the lens mechanism when the projector was shipped out the factory . If you implement “SHIFT LENS” on the setting menu and the lens does not either mo v e up or down, the shift center loc k pin may not have been removed. Consult your dealer or service center.

CAUTIONS and NOTES

• When installing the screen, use a 4 : 3 aspect ratio picture. (A 16 : 9 aspect ratio picture is projected based on the width of the range in which a 4 : 3 aspect ratio picture is projected.)

• The diagonal length of a 16 : 9 aspect ratio picture is about 91.8% that of a 4 : 3 aspect r atio picture . This value is a guide and should be used as a reference.

• When projecting at the maximum projection distance, we recommend that the projector be used with the zoom on the Tele (T).

• If sunlight or lamp light strikes the projection screen directly, the picture becomes whitish and dim. Be sure to use a curtain, etc. to shield the light.

• Trapezoidal distortion may not be corrected. Adjust the projector within the range of angle adjustment (up/down adjustment angle: +4°; horizontal adjustment angle: ±5°) so that it is set up level.

Connecting to Various Devices (Cont.)

When Turning On the Devices Connected to the Projector

Turn on the switches of the projector and the devices connected in the following order. Skip over unconnected devices if there is any.

Power switch of the monitor of the computer which provides input to the projector

Peripheral devices of the computer which provides input to the projector

(Hard disk, magneto optical disk, scanner, etc.)

Power switch of AV devices which provide input to the projector

Projector itself

Power switches of devices to which the projector provides output

(AV devices and display monitor)

Power switch of the computer which provides input to the projector

* When turning off the power switches, do so in the reverse order.

CAUTIONS and NOTES

Do not turn off the MAIN POWER switch suddenly while the projector is being used or immediately after it has been used. This could cause a malfunction.

•Since the projector uses a high-intensity lamp and is heated to high temperature, cooling fans are operating even during

projection. So, after use, the cooling fans continue to run until the light-source lamp is sufficiently cooled down after the OPERA TE b utton was pressed. During the cooling-down, ne ver turn off the main power s witch. Turn it off only after the cooling fans (except the one for the light-source lamp power supply) have stopped running. (The cooling fans will run for about 10 minutes after the STAND BY indicator has changed from flashing (for about 20 seconds) to steady lighting.)

•If you press the OPERATE button immediately after the light-source lamp lights, it takes about 30 seconds for the lamp to go

off. To turn the lamp on again, wait 20 seconds or more before pressing the OPERATE button.

When the TEMP indicator lights, the power turns off automatically.

•While the light-source lamp is on, if an abnormal temperature rise is detected, the TEMP indicator comes on, the power is

automatically cut off, and the projector’s EMERGENCY indicator blinks (goes into an emergency mode).

When the EMERGENCY indicator blinks, turn off the main power switch after the fans have stopped running.

•If the following abnormality occur to the projector, it goes into an emergency mode (the EMERGENCY indicator blinks).

When the projector goes into an emergency mode, it stops projecting automatically and the cooling fans will continue to run for about 10 minutes more before they stop (except the cooling fan for the light-source lamp power supply which continues running as long as the MAIN POWER switch is on). – When the light-source lamp suddenly goes off. – When the fans stop running. – When the temperature inside rises abnormally high.

•When the projector goes into an emergency mode:

After the fans have stopped, turn off the MAIN PO WER s witch and pull out the power cord. After that, re-insert the power cord and try to operate the projector. If it goes into emergency again, after the fans have stopped, turn off the main power switch, pull out the power cord, and consult your authorized dealer or service center for repair.

Notes

• The selected item is shown in magenta color. Items shown in gray color cannot be operated or set in the current mode.

• Adjustment items (on the PICTURE menu) are different when AV signals are input and when computer-related signals are input.

Note

• There is a relationship between the adjustment of items R-GAIN, G-GAIN, and B-GAIN and that of item CONTRAST. For example, when adjustment values are : R-GAIN: 0, G-GAIN: 5, B-GAIN: 0, and CONTRAST : 0, changing CONTRAST to 1 changes the adjustment values as follows: R-GAIN: 1, GGAIN: 6, and B-GAIN: 1. Also, when the adjustment value of any of R-GAIN, G-GAIN, and B-GAIN has reached -30 (minimum) or +30 (maximum), CONTRAST cannot be adjusted to any higher value. For example, when R-GAIN is 0, G-GAIN is 5, B-GAIN is 0, and CONTRAST is 0, increasing CONTRAST allows the other adjustment values to increase until R-GAIN: 25, G-GAIN: 30, and B-GAIN: 25, then CONTRAST becomes 25 and cannot be adjusted to any higher value.

Note

• You can automatically switch the channels of the projector by specifying a switcher number through an external controller. As an example, if switcher number 1 (SWNo1) has been registered to channel number 1 (CH1), specifying switcher number 1 (SWNo1) automatically switches the projector to channel number 1 (CH1). (For this operation, a setup is required to communicate between the projector and the external controller.)

Filter Maintenance and Light-Source Lamp Replacement

Cleaning and Replacing the Filter

The filters should be cleaned periodically . If they are heavily stained, do not become clean if cleaned, or are damaged, replace them with new filters (Parts number: LC30505); otherwise, dirt and dust may get inside, possibly causing an adv erse effect on the screen and preventing you from enjoying clear pictures.

■ The projector has two filters installed, one on the right side and the other on the back.

Bring the projector into stand-by

state, and turn off the MAIN PO WER switch.

Put the projector into stand-by , and make sure the STAND BY indicator is lit, then tun off the MAIN POWER switch. After that, disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet and the projector. For detailed procedures, refer to “Turning off the power” (page 25).

Remove the filter cover screws.

Using a Phillips screwdriver , remov e the six scre ws fixing each filter. Two filters are used, one on the r ight side and the other on the back of the projector.

Note

• If the filter is clogged with dirt, etc., the projector goes into an emergency mode (the EMERGENCY indicator blinks). So, clean the filter periodically. For the emergency mode, refer to pages 8 and 24.

There are two filters used.

Remove the filters.

To remove the filter, pinch the center portion of the filter with your fingers and pull it toward you.

(The filter is held by four tabs.)

(To be continued on the next page)

Filter Maintenance and Light-Source Lamp Replacement (Cont.)

Cleaning and Replacing the Filter (Cont.)

Clean the filters.

Wash the filter in water with neutral detergent, and dry it in the shade.

Reinstall the filters.

T o reinstall the filters to the projector , reverse the procedure for removing . Finally, be sure to reinstall the filter covers.

Notes

• Install the filters correctly; otherwise the projector will not operate normally.

• If the filters and/or filter holders are damaged, the projector may fail to operate. Then, replace with new parts.

CAUTIONS

• Put on rubber gloves when using neutral detergent.

• After you have washed the filter in water, make sure the filter is completely dry before reinstalling it. Otherwise, electric shock or malfunction could occur.

• Do not clean the filter using a vacuum cleaner. Since the filter is soft, it may be sucked into the vacuum cleaner or damaged.

About Light-Source Lamp Replacement

The light-source lamp has its service life. It is approximately 1000 hours.

When the light-source lamp approaches the end of its service life, its degradation progresses rapidly. When the lamp’s used hours exceed 900 hours, the projector’ s LAMP indicator comes on. Also, at the start of projection (lamp energized), the message “REPL.-LAMP” appears on the projection screen for about two minutes. Then, the light-source lamp needs to be replaced. When lamp’s service has reached 1000 hours, the projector’s LAMP indicator starts blinking. The specified lamp replacement period is 1000 hours, but depending on use conditions, the replacement period may v ary . If video image is dark and its color tint is extraordinary even after you have adjusted color tint and brightness, replace the light-source lamp a little earlier. For replacing the light-source lamp, consult the dealer where you purchased your projector or a local service center.

Troubleshooting

Solutions to common problems related to your projector are described here. If none of the solutions presented here solves the problem, unplug the projector and consult a authorized dealer or service center.
