CAUTIONS and NOTES

• Install the screen so the lower edge of the projected picture aligns with the extended center line of the projector’s lens. That way , the lower edge of the picture projected on a 4 : 3 aspect ratio screen aligns with the extended center line of the lens. Also, the screen must be at right angles with the extended center line of the lens (so that projection occurs at right angles with the screen).

• 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 ratio picture. This value is a guide and should be used as a reference.

• When projecting at the maximum projection distance (20 m/65.6 ft), 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: +7°; horizontal adjustment angle: ±1.5°) so that it is set up level.

• The numeric values listed in the table of Relationship between Projection Distances and Screen Sizes on page 17 are provided only as a guide or reference. The projection sizes may vary within manufacturing tolerances of the projection lens.

• When hanging the projector from the ceiling, use a dedicated hanging fixture.

Memo

When the OPERATE button is pressed but the power is not supplied:

If the filter or lamp replacement opening cover is displaced, the power is not supplied. Check them for correct installation.

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 from when the OPERATE button is pressed until the light-source lamp is cooled down. During cooling, the STAND BY indicator blinks to alert the cooling fans are running. During this time, do not turn off the main power switch. After the cooling of the light-source lamp is finished (the fans stop) and the STAND BY indicator comes on, then turn off the main power switch.

•If you press the OPERATE button immediately after the light-source lamp lights, it takes about 40 seconds for the lamp to go

off. To turn the lamp on again, wait 10 seconds or more before pressing the OPERATE button.

ENGLISH

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 runs the fans for about 20 seconds. – When the filter is dislodged. – When the filter is clogged. – 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 POWER switch 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.

items on the PICTURE quality menu to the factory-set status (adjustment values: 0, text mode: NORMAL).

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.

Replacing the Light-Source Lamp

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, replace with a new light-source lamp, or arrange for a replacement lamp. When lamp’s service has reached 1000 hours, the projector’s LAMP indicator starts blinking, and if you press the OPERATE button (or press the remote control’s OPERA TE button for more than one second), the light-source lamp does not turn on. The specified lamp replacement period is 1000 hours, but depending on use conditions, the replacement period may vary. 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. Purchase new light-source lamps (part No. : G1000-LAMP) from the authorized dealer where you have purchased the projector, or consult the Service center.

CAUTIONS and NOTES

• If the projector is set up in a tight place which is unsuitable for work, and if you perform replacement work there, this could hurt you. Move the projector to a place wide enough for work, and then replace the lamp.

• Use a genuine product for the light-source lamp. If you use other than a genuine product, this could cause a malfunction. Also, never use an old light-source lamp. An old lamp could cause marked degradation in performance or explode itself, possibly causing the projector to malfunction. Also, its broken pieces could come out of the projector and harm you when replacing the light-source lamp.

• Do not replace the light-source lamp immediately after the projector has been used. The temperature of the light-source lamp is still high and could cause a burn. Be sure to allow a cooling period of one hour or more before performing replacement work.

• Before starting lamp replacement work, turn off the MAIN POWER switch (see page 26), and disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet. If you perform the replacement work with the power cord left connected, this could cause harm or electric shock.

• Never discard an old light-source lamp (used lamp), as is. Otherwise, this could involve a great danger. The lamp contains a xenon gas inside, which is applying a high pressure. If the gas is not removed, it could cause the lamp to explode. For handling used lamps, refer to the manual supplied with the new replacement lamp you have purchased. If you have any questions, consult a authorized dealer where you have bought the replacement lamp or Service center.

Remove the lamp-replacement

Fasten the two screws with a flat-end screwdriver.

CAUTION

• Do not touch the glass surface of the light-source lamp directly with your hand as well as staining it. If you touch with a bare hand, stains on your hand may adhere to the lamp, possibly preventing the lamp from performing as specified due to a shortened lamp life, a darkened screen, etc. To handle a new light-source lamp, hold its plastic part. Never touch the metal part or the front glass surface.

Memo

To check the lamp use time has been reset :

You can check it by LAMP TIME on the OPTIONS menu.

CAUTIONS

• After replacing with a new light-source lamp, be sure to reset the lamp use time. When the lamp use time indicates 1000 hours, and if it is not reset, the projector does not operate. (The light-source lamp does not turn on.)

• Reset the lamp use time only when you have replaced with a new light-source lamp. Never reset it at a halfway time. Otherwise, the replacement time may become unclear, degrade performance markedly, or cause lamp explosion.

Cleaning and Replacing the Filter

Clean the filter periodically. If the filter is heavily stained and does not get clean, or if it is damaged, replace the filter with a new filter (part No.: LC30208). Otherwise, dirt may get inside and appear on the screen, possibly preventing you from enjoying the video image fully . If dirt gets inside or if you need information about the filter, consult a authorized dealer where you have purchased the projector or Service center.

Turn off the MAIN POWER switch.

After the projector goes into stand-by state with the STAND BY indicator on, turn off the main power switch and pull out the power cord from the projector and the wall outlet.

Remove the filter.

Loosen the screw with a flat-end screwdriver.

Screw

Clean the filter.

Clean the filter with a neutral detergent, wash it in water, and then dry it in the shade.

Notes

• The screws are fitted so that they do not come off the filter.

• 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 9 and 25.

Be careful not to damage the claws.

Filter

Reinstall the filter.

Fasten the screw with a flat-end screwdriver.

Notes

• Install the filter correctly. Otherwise, the projector does not operate. (Goes into an emergency mode.)

• If the filter’s claws are damaged, the projector may not operate. Then, replace with a new filter.

ENGLISH

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.

Symptom Probable cause Corrective action Page

The upper part of the video image bows or distorts.

Video image and audio sound suddenly go out.

Remote control unit does not work.

* This projector is equipped with a microcomputer that may operate abnormally due to interference from external components.

If this happens, turn off the main power and disconnect the power cord from the wall AC outlet. Then reconnect the power cord to AC outlet and turn on the main power again. (For the turning on and off the power, see pages 25 to 26.)

• While computer system signal is input, isn’t a sync signal for composite sync (Cs) or G on sync being input?

• Isn’t signal with much jitter or skew distortion being input to a video deck?

• Is the source setting correctly selected? Isn’t a wrong source (forced mode) selected?

• Are video picture and audio turned off by pressing the AV MUTING button on the remote control unit?

• Are batteries installed correctly?

• Are batteries exhausted?

• Is there a shielding object between the remote control unit and the remote sensor?

• Is the distance too long?

• Input separate sync signals for vertical sync (V) and horizontal sync (H) signals.

• Input signals with little jitter or distortion.

• Set the source setting to AUTO. If the problem still persists, set it to the correct dedicated source (forced mode).

• Turn on video picture and audio by pressing the remote control’s AV MUTING.

• Match the polarities of batteries correctly (+ to + and - to -).

• Replace with new batteries.

• Remove any shielding objects.

• Use the remote control unit at a nearer point.

Maintenance

• Stains on the cabinet

Should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the cabinet is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.

• Since the cabinet may deteriorate in quality, become damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the following:

– Do not wipe it with a hard cloth. – Do not wipe it strong. – Do not wipe it with thinner or benzene. – Do not apply any volatile substance such as insecticides to it. – Do not allow any rubber or vinyl article to remain in contact with it for a long time.

• Stains on the lens

Sould be cleaned off with commercially available blowers or lens cleaning paper (for cleaning glasses and cameras). Do not use liquid cleaning agents. This could cause the surface coating to be removed. Do not rub or hit the lens as its surface is prone to damage.
