Installing the Projector
Precautions for Installation
CAUTION
Do not install the projector in the following places :
• There is much water, humidity or dust.
• The projector may be subjected to oil smoke or cigarette smoke.
• On a soft surface such as a carpet or cushion.
• The projector may be subjected to direct sunlight.
• Temperature is high or humidity is low.
Allowable operation temperature range: + 5°C to + 35°C (41°F to 95°F)
Allowable relative humidity range:20% to 80% (no condensation)
Allowable storage temperature range:–10°C to +60°C (14°F to 140°F)
■ When installing the projector, observe the followings:
• Do not use the projector placed on its side.
Avoid using the projector placed on its side. This could cause a malfunction.
• Use the projector within the installed angle.
Avoid using the projector inclined ±30° or more right-to-left or left-to-right. This could cause color variation or harm the lamp
life.
• Do not block the exhaust vents.
Do not use a cover which encloses the projector air-tight or blocks the exhaust vents. Allow sufficient space around the
projector. When the projector is enclosed in a space of the following dimensions, use an air conditioner so the temperature
inside becomes equal to the outside temperature.

Projection Distance and Screen Size
■ The projector’s projection lens is a zoom lens of about 1.5 x. The screen size at the maximum enlargement is 1.5
times that of the minimum size.
■ The projection distance that can be focused is 2.5 to 20 m. Install the projector within this range.
Screen
■ Change of projection screen

edge of the projection screen is
at the same height as the lens’
center line.

Projection screen size (diagonal length)
*Also, refer to the table of “Relationship Between Projection Distances and Projection Screen Sizes” on page 17 as a reference.
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.

menu to the factory-set status
(adjustment values: 0, text

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.

Normally , use the source setting in AUT O. If use in AUT O is unstable
such as color not appearing, the screen being disturbed or the screen
being intermitted, set to the dedicated source (forced mode) in
accordance with the input signal.
• When shipped from the factory, the source settings are as follows:
• Depending on the signal from a device connected, adjustment may be needed
after a dedicated source is set. If that is the case, adjust the appropriate
items.
• When the input mode (SOURCE) is VIDEO or Y/C, and if AUTO is set, the
automatic detecting function may work, possibly causing the screen to be
intermitted or disturbed. In that case, set to a dedicated source (forced mode).
• When special effect playback (fast-forward/ twice-speed/triple-speed) is
performed on a video deck, etc, the picture may be disturbed or intermitted,
depending on the device.
• When inputting 480p or 720p-DTV-format signal in COMPUTER2 input
mode, use the dedicated source mode “SDTV(480p)” or “HDTV1(720p)”.

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.

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.

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?

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.
