Installation

Installation Precautions

yyMake sure to remove the protective film attached to the projector.

- If you use the projector without removing the protective film, the product may not work properly.

yyPlace the projector in a well-ventilated environment.

- To prevent internal heat from building up, install the projector in a well-ventilated place.

Do not place anything near the projector as this may block its air vents. If the air vents are blocked, the internal temperature will increase.

-Do not place the projector on a carpet or rug. If a product has its inlet vent on its bottom, do not block the vent and use the product on a leveled solid surface.

-Be sure to prevent foreign objects, such as scraps of paper, from entering the inlet vent.

-Leave an adequate distance (30 cm or more) around the projector.

yyDo not place the product in a hot or humid environment.

- Do not place the product in a hot, cold, or humid environment.

yyDo not place the product in a dusty place.

- This may cause fire.

yyNever open any cover on the projector. There is a high risk of electric shock.

yyThe projector is manufactured using high-precision technology. You may, however, see tiny black dots and/ or bright colored dots (red, blue or green) that continuously appear on

the projector screen. This is a normal result of the manufacturing process and does not indicate a malfunction.

yyThe remote control may not work in an environment where a lamp equipped with electronic ballasts or

a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp is installed. Replace the lamp with an international standard lamp for the remote control to work normally.

16 PREPARATION

Projection Distance per Screen Size

1 Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface, together with the computer or audio/ video source.

2 Place the projector at an appropriate distance from the screen. The distance between the projector and the screen determines the actual size of the image.

3 Position the projector so that the lens is perpendicular to the screen. If the lens is not perpendicular to the screen, the projected image will look distorted. If the screen image is crooked, use the Keystone function. (See page 23.)

4 Connect the power cords of the projector and the connected devices to the wall outlet.

The lifetime of the lamp depends on the environment in which the projector is used.

You can check how long the projector lamp has been used in the Option menu.

Make sure to replace the lamp in the following situations:

yyThe projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate in quality.

yyThe lamp warning indicator is red.

20 sec.). When the operation indicator turns orange, remove the power code.

yyAllow the lamp to cool down for

1 hour before replacing it.

yyReplace only with the same type of lamp from a reseller or an LG Electronics Service Center.

Using another manufacturer's lamp may damage the projector and lamp.

yyRemove the lamp only when replacing it.

yyKeep the lamp unit out of reach of children. Keep the lamp away from heat sources such as radiators, stoves etc. There is a risk of fire or burning.

yyDo not expose the lamp to liquids or foreign materials. The lamp may burst.

yyDo not insert any flammable or metal objects into the lamp socket after removing the lamp. This can result in electrical shock or damage the product.

yyFix the new lamp with screws securely. If it is not securely fixed, the projected image may become darker and there may be a fire risk.

yyDo not touch the front glass of the new lamp or the glass of the lamp container. Picture quality and lamp lifetime may suffer.

Purchasing a replacement lamp

Check the lamp model and then purchase it from an LG Electronics Service Center. (Use a lamp designed specifically for the projector, otherwise

it may cause damage to the projector.)

Disposing of the lamp

Dispose of the used lamp by returning it to an LG Electronics Service Center.
