How to Use the Remote Control

z If the remote control has to be brought closer to the projector to operate, it means that the batteries are wearing out. When this

happens, replace the batteries. Insert the batteries according to the +- marks.

z Be sure to insert the - end first.
z If an error occurs when using the remote control, remove the batteries and wait for 5 minutes. Load the batteries again and

operate the remote control.

Loading Batteries

Effective Range of Remote Control Unit

 When directing the remote control

toward this unit

z

When aiming the remote control towards the
remote sensor on this unit, ensure that the
distance to the sensor in front or at the rear of
this unit is within 7 m.

z If the remote control fails to work properly,

move closer to this unit.

 When reflecting off a screen

z

Ensure that total of distance A between this
unit and screen and distance B between
remote control and screen is within 7 m.

z As the efficiency of signals reflected from the

remote control unit differ with the type of
screen used, operable distance may
decrease.

About Cool Down mode

z

The Cool Down mode is a function
to cool down the lamp for
approximately 60 seconds after
projection is complete.
This function prevents the internal
parts of the unit from deformation
or damage due to overheating of
the lamp. It also prevents lamp
blowout and premature shortening
of lamp life.

z During Cool Down mode, the

[STANDBY/ON] indicator blinks in
red.

z After the Cool Down mode is

complete, the unit automatically
returns to standby mode.

z Do not pull out the power plug

during Cool Down mode. This may
shorten the lamp life and cause a
malfunction.

Basic Operation

Convenient Features during Projection

The projected image can be set to a most appropriate screen size (aspect
ratio).

z

The screen size can also be set from “Aspect” of the setting menu. (pP29 - S)

z When high definition images are input, the screen size is fixed at “16:9”.

 Input Image and Projected Image by Different Screen Size Settings

z

Depending on the input image, selecting “4:3” may result in a vertically stretched
image while selecting “16:9” provides you with the most appropriate screen size.

Images for which quality at the outer area has deteriorated can be projected
by masking (hiding) the surrounding area of the projected image.

A Project the image

You can change the screen size of the projected image or hide the surrounding area of an image for which
quality at the outer area has deteriorated.

..................................................

D-ILA Device Characteristics

Do not project still pictures or pictures that have still
segments for a long period of time. The still parts of the
picture may remain on the screen. This is a characteristic of
D-ILA devices and not a malfunction. The picture will
disappear over time.

..................................................

When Unit is Unused for a Long Time

Prolonged disuse of the unit may effect an error on the
functions. Turn on the power occasionally and operate the
unit.

..................................................

Viewing Advice

Looking at the screen continually for a prolonged time will
cause your eyes to get tired. Allow your eyes to rest at
intervals.

..................................................

Usage Environment

z Avoid direct exposure of screen to direct sunlight and

illumination. Block light using a curtain. Images can be
well projected by darkening the brightness of the room.

z Do not use this unit in rooms with cigarette smoke or oily

smoke. This may cause the unit to malfunction.

..................................................

Parts Replacement

This unit contains parts (optical part, cooling fan, etc.) that
require replacement to maintain its functioning. The
estimated time for parts replacement varies greatly
depending on the usage and environment. Please consult
your authorized dealer for replacement.

..................................................

Maintenance Procedures

Dirt on the cabinet

z Gently clean dirt on the cabinet with a soft cloth. In the

case of heavy soiling, soak a cloth in water, wring dry and
wipe, followed by wiping again with a dry cloth.
Pay attention to the following as the cabinet may
deteriorate in condition or paint may come off.

• Do not wipe with thinner or benzene

• Do not spray volatile chemicals like insecticide

• Do not allow prolonged contact with rubber or plastic

products

Dirt in the air inlets

z Use a vacuum cleaner to suck up the dirt. Otherwise, use

a cloth to wipe off the dirt. If dirt is allowed to accumulate
in the air inlets, the internal temperature cannot be
adjusted and this may cause a malfunction.

Dirt on the lens

z Clean the dirt using commercial blowers or lens cleaning

papers for cleaning glasses and cameras.
Do not use fluid-type cleaning agents. This may lead to
peeling of the surface coating film.

..................................................

Transporting this Unit

Before transporting or shipping this unit, attach the buffer
material on the top and bottom of the lens for protection.
Failure to do so may subject the lens to shock causing
damage.
Attach the buffer material after adjusting the lens to the
center position.

Others

Measures to prevent the unit from toppling or dropping should be taken for safety reasons and accident prevention
during emergencies including earthquakes.

When mounting this unit on a pedestal or ceiling, remove the 4 feet on the bottom surface and use all the 4 screw
holes (M5 screws) to mount.

.........................................................................................................

Precautions for Mounting

z Special expertise and techniques are required for

mounting this unit. Be sure to ask your dealer or a
specialist to perform mounting.

z Depth of the screw holes (screw length) is 30 mm. Use

screws shorter than 30 mm but longer than 19 mm.

Using other screws will result in malfunctioning or
cause the unit to drop.

z When mounting to a pedestal, ensure sufficient space

(foot height of 21.5 mm or higher) around the unit so that
the air inlets are not blocked.

z Do not tilt this unit more than ±5 degrees from side to side

when using. This may result in uneven colors or shortening
of lamp life.

z Regardless whether the unit is still under guarantee, JVC

is not liable for any product damage caused by mounting
the unit with non-JVC ceiling fittings or when the
environment is not suitable for ceiling-mount.

z When using the unit hanging from a ceiling, pay attention

to the surrounding temperature. When a heater is in use,
temperature around the ceiling is higher than expected.
