Getting started

- The product should be placed more than one foot
away from heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, and other products (including

ampliers) that produce heat.

- When connecting other products such as VCR’s,
and DVD players, you should turn off the power of

this product for protection against electric shock.

- Do not place combustibles behind the cooling fan.

For example, cloth, paper, matches, aerosol cans
or gas lighters that present special hazards when
over heated.

- Do not look into the projection lens while the
illumination lamp is turned on. Exposure of your
eyes to the strong light can result in impaired
eyesight.

- Do not look into the inside of this unit through
vents (ventilation holes), etc. Do not look at the
illumination lamp directly by opening the cabinet
while the illumination lamp is turned on. The
illumination lamp also contains ultraviolet rays and
the light is so powerful that your eyesight can be
impaired.

- Do not drop, hit, or damage the light-source lamp
(lamp unit) in any way. It may cause the light­ source lamp to break and lead to injuries. Do not
use a damaged light source lamp. If the light­ source lamp is broken, ask your dealer to repair it.
Fragments from a broken light-source lamp may
cause injuries.

- The light-source lamp used in this projector is a
high pressure mercury lamp. Be careful when
disposing of the light-source lamp. If anything is
unclear, please consult your dealer.

- Do not ceiling-mount the projector to a place which

tends to vibrate; otherwise, the attaching xture of

the projector could be broken by the vibration,
possibly causing it to fall or overturn, which could
lead to personal injury.

- Use only the accessory cord designed for this

product to prevent shock.

- Once every three years, please perform an
internal test. This unit is provided with
replacement parts needed to maintain its
function (such as cooling fans). Estimated
replacement time of parts can vary greatly
depending on frequency of use and the
respective environment. For replacement,
please consult your dealer, or the nearest

authorized JVC service center.

- When xing the unit to the ceiling, Please note

that we do not take any responsibility, even
during the warranty period, if the product is

damaged due to use of metal xtures used for
xation to the ceiling other than our own or if the
installation environment of said metal xtures is

not appropriate. If the unit is suspended from the
ceiling during use, please be careful in regard to
the ambient temperature of the unit. If you use
a central heating, the temperature close to the
ceiling will be higher than normally expected.

- Video images can burn into the electronic com

ponent parts. Please do not display screens with
still images of high brightness or high contrast,
such as found in video games and computer
programs. Over a long period of time it might
stick to the picture element. There is no problem
with the playback of moving images, e.g. normal
video footage.

- Not using the unit for a long time can lead to
malfunction. Please power it on and let it run
occasionally. Please avoid using the unit in a
room where cigarettes are smoked. It is impos
sible to clean optical component parts if they are
contaminated by nicotine or tar. This might lead
to performance degradation.

DO NOT allow any unqualied person

*

to install the unit.

Be sure to ask your dealer to install the unit
(e.g.attaching it to the ceiling) since special
technical knowledge and skills are required
for installation. If installation is performed by

About installation

Important points concerning the installation

Please read the following carefully before the installation of this unit.

Installation environment

This unit is a precision device. Therefore, please refrain
from installation or use in the following locations.
Otherwise, it may cause re or malfunction.

• Dust, wet and humid locations.

• Sooty or cigarette smoke lled locations.

• On top of a carpet or bedding, or other soft surfaces.

• Locations with high temperatures - as located in direct

sunlight.

• Locations with high or low temperatures.

Permissible operating temperature range: +5 º to +35º .
Relative humidity range permissible for operating: 20%
~ 80% (non-condensing) .
Storage temperature tolerance: -10º to +60º.

• If the installation of the unit is done in a room with soot

and/or smoke over a longer period, even small amounts
of these substances will affect the device.This unit
cools its optical components, which produce a great
amount of heat, by sucking in air. If the optical circuits
get dirty, this might lead to malfunctions, like the video
images becoming darker or a deterioration of the color
development. Dirt sticking to the optical components
cannot be removed.

Please be careful to perform
the installation at a certain
distance from walls and
other devices

For better heat dissipation, please keep a minimum
distance between this unit and its surroundings as shown

the following illustration.

in
Moreover, please open the front of the unit. If there are
any objects in front of the exhaust port, the hot air will
ow back to the unit and heat it. The hot air owing out of
the unit might cause shadows on the screen (heat haze
phenomenon).
Moreover, when it is enclosed in a space as shown in the
following illustration, please make sure that the enclosed
interior has the same temperature as the outside. High
temperatures might lead to failure of the unit.

Please be careful when using

This unit uses a projection lamp, which will get hot when
in use. Please refrain from projecting in the following
circumstances.
Otherwise, it might cause re or malfunction.

• Projection while lying on its side.
Please avoid projection if the installation of the unit is
done at an excessive angle of more tha
cause harm to the life of the lamp and color shading.

• Please avoid projection at a location where the air vents
or exhaust ports might get blocked.

Please choose a non-uniform cloth material for the screen.
If you choose something uniform, like something with a
checkered pattern, there might be interference with the
pixel array of the D-ILA components. One way to reduce
the interference pattern is to change the size of the screen,
so that it will not be so noticeable.

About Cool Down
mode

●

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.

●

During Cool Down mode, the

[STANDBY/ON] indicator blinks
in red.

●

After the Cool Down mode is

complete, the unit automatically
returns to standby mode.

●

Do not pull out the power plug

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

Operation guide (glossary)

Gamma Curve

The description of the gamma curve that assumes a gamma curve unit. Please read the relevant detailed description
and professional books.
The gamma curve of the projector to the input video signal determines for each color the relative value of its light output.
The value of the input video image signal is displayed as a percentage - with
both being displayed in % as units - of the maximum light input signal for bright­ness and the brightness output value as a percentage of the maximum output
value of each color or the projector. In relation to the signal value of 50% of the
input, it projects with brightness output value of 50%. However, a light output
value of 0% is not completely black and neither no projection. As the possibil­ity of the projector to reproduce blackness is limited, it will be actually slightly
brighter.
The input video image signal value becomes a continuous curve of 0% to 100%
for the gamma curve, which can be set with the projector. Moreover, it is impos­sible to get only one light output value for the input video image signal value.
The gamma curve can be set for each color, i.e. red, green and blue. By select­ing the white color, the 3 colors can be adjusted at the same time.
A larger angle of inclination of the gamma curve leads to a greater gap of the
light output value of that area and makes it easier to distinguish the video images. A low angle of inclination leads, on the
contrary, to the difference in that area becoming smaller, so that the video images are harder to distinguish. If it is im­possible to get an inclination angle, so that it is chosen to become horizontal, the gap in that area vanished and it might
be impossible to distinguish the video images.

Suppose you knew the inclination of the input video image signal values of the watched video images, and would
increase the slope of the portion of this area and attenuate the slope of other areas. It would then be easier to determine
the video images. Also, if you did not know the inclination of the input video image signal value of the watched video
images, adjustment would be difcult.However, there are some trends of the distribution of the input video image signal
value depending on the type of video content. As some typical examples are prepared in the [Gamma] (Reference Page:

43), it is recommended to perform similar settings before watching.
Some methods about how to adjust the gamma curve are presented here, but in reality one can think of various adjust-
