Observe the following safeguards when setting up your projector.

Caution concerning the lamp unit

■

Potential hazard of glass particles if lamp ruptures. In case of lamp rupture, contact your nearest Authorized Dealer or Service

for replacement.

Center See “Replacing the Lamp” on page 54.

Marantz

Caution concerning the setup of the projector

■

For minimal servicing and to maintain high image quality, Marantz recommends that this projector be installed in an area free from humidity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the projector is subjected to these environments, the vents and lens must be cleaned more often. As long as the projector is regularly cleaned, use in these environments will not reduce the overall operation life of the unit. Internal cleaning should only be performed by Marantz Authorized Dealer or Service Center.

Do not set up the projector in places exposed to direct sunlight or bright light.

■ Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly on the screen washes out the colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room.

Caution regarding placing of the projector

■ Place the projector on a level site within the adjustment range (8 degrees) of the adjust-

ment foot.

■ After the projector is purchased, a faint smell from the vent may appear when the power is first turned on. This is normal and is not a malfunction. It will disappear after the projector is used for a while.

When using the projector in high-altitude areas such as mountains (at altitudes of approximately 4,900 feet (1,500 meters) or more)

■ When you use the projector in high-altitude areas with thin air, set “Fan Mode” to “High”. Neglecting this can affect the longevity of the optical system.

Warning about placing the projector in a high position

■ When placing the projector in a high position, ensure that it is secured carefully to avoid personal injury caused by the projector falling down.

Do not subject the projector to hard impact and/or vibration.

■ Protect the lens so as not to hit or damage the surface of the lens.

Rest your eyes occasionally.

■ Continuously watching the screen for long hours will cause eye strain. Be sure to occasionally rest your eyes.

Avoid locations with extremes of temperature.

■ The operating temperature of the projector is from 41°F to 95°F (+5°C to +35°C).

■ The storage temperature of the projector is from –4°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C).

Do not block the exhaust and intake vents.

■ Allow at least 11 13/16 inches (30 cm) of space between the exhaust vent and the nearest wall or obstruction.

■ Be sure that the intake vent and the exhaust vent are not obstructed.

■ If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a protection circuit will automatically put the projector into standby mode to prevent overheat damage. This does not indicate a malfunction. (See pages 52 and 53.) Remove the projector power cord from the wall outlet and wait at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked, plug the power cord back in and turn on the projector. This will return the projector to the normal operating condition.

■ When turning off the projector, the cooling fan

Info

runs to decrease the internal temperature for a while. Unplug the power cord after the cooling fan stops. The period the cooling fan runs will vary, depending on the circumstances and the internal temperature.

Caution regarding usage of the projector

■ When using the projector, be sure not to subject it to hard impact and/or vibration, as this can result in damage. Take extra care with the lens. Before moving the projector, be sure to unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, and disconnect any other cables connected to it.

■ Do not carry the projector by holding the lens.

■ When storing the projector, re-attach the lens

cap. (See page 11).

■ Do not expose the projector to direct sunlight or place next to heat sources. Doing so may affect the cabinet color or cause deformation of the plastic cover.

Using the projector in other countries

■ The power supply voltage and the shape of the plug may vary depending on the region or country you are using the projector in. When using the projector overseas, be sure to use an appropriate power cord for the country you are in.

Temperature monitor function

■

If the projector starts to overheat due to setup problems or blockage of the air vents, “ ” and

” will illuminate in the lower left corner

Introduction

Other connected equipment

■ When connecting a computer or other audiovisual equipment to the projector, make the connections AFTER unplugging the power cord of the projector from the AC outlet and turning off the equipment to be connected.

■ Please read the user guides of the projector and the equipment to be connected for instructions on how to make the connections.

• The cooling fan regulates the internal temperature, and its performance is automatically controlled. The sound of the fan may change during projector operation due to changes in the fan speed. This does not indicate malfunction.

• Do not unplug the power cord during projection or cooling fan operation. This can cause damage due to rise in internal temperature, as the cooling fan also stops.

When connecting to equipment with HDMI output teminal (HDMI)

HDMI is a new specialized interface capable of delivering a video and audio signal to the terminal using just one cable. Since this projector does not support an audio signal by itself, use an amplifier or other audio device. For video connection, use a cable that conforms to HDMI standards. Using cables that do not conform to HDMI standards may result in a malfunction.

To HDMI output terminal

• HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a digital AV interface that can deliver a high-definition video signal, multi-channel audio signal, and bi-directional control signal all in just one cable.

• Because it is compatible with the HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) system, the digital video signal does not degrade when transmitted, and a high-quality image with a simple connection can be enjoyed.

• When a DVI to HDMI conversion cable is connected to the HDMI terminal, a proper picture may not be displayable.

Correcting Trapezoidal Distortion

When the image is projected either from the top or from the bottom towards the screen at an angle, the image becomes distorted trapezoidally. The function for correcting trapezoidal distortion is called Keystone Correction.

There are the two types of the Keystone Correction.

1) The “GEOMETRIC ADJUSTMENT” method corrects trapezoidal distortion by specifying 4 marks on the screen.

2) The “H & V KEYSTONE” method features corrections to 2 axes (horizontal and vertical) based on numerical values.

• Each time c KEYSTONE is pressed, the

display toggles as follows:

• When corrections are made with Keystone correction, the changes are saved even if the power cord is unplugged.

• Since Keystone correction digitally corrects the signal, resolution may slightly decrease when it is used. Moiré patterns and line distortions may also be visible in detailed images. However, this is not a malfunction.

• If you cannot correct trapezoidal distortion with Keystone correction, change the placement position of the projector.

• Straight lines and the edges of the displayed image may appear jagged, when adjusting the Keystone setting.

• Also read “About Copyrights” on page 37.

About Copyrights

• When using the ASPECT function to select an image size with a different aspect ratio to a TV program or video image, the image will look different from its original appearance. Keep this in mind while choosing an image size.

• The use of the Aspect, Keystone Correction, Subtitle, or Overscan function to compress or stretch the image for commercial purposes/public displays in a café, hotel, etc. may be an infringement of copyright protected by law for copyright holders. Please use caution.

• While watching non-widescreen images (4:3), if you use the ASPECT function to fill the screen or use the Overscan function to change the aspect ratio of a fixed-ratio input signal, parts of the outer edge of the image will be cut off or distorted. To watch original images as the producers intended, set ASPECT to “NORMAL” and Overscan to its default setting.

Maintenance

Info

Cleaning the projector

■ Ensure that you have unplugged the power cord before cleaning the projector.

■ The cabinet as well as the operation panel is made of plastic. Avoid using benzene or thinner, as these can damage the finish on the cabinet.

■ Do not use volatile agents such as insecticides on the projector. Do not attach rubber or plastic items to the projector for long periods. The effects of some of the agents in the plastic may cause damage to the quality or finish of the projector.

■ Wipe off dirt gently with a soft flannel cloth.

■ When the dirt is hard to remove, soak a cloth in

a mild detergent diluted with water, wring the cloth well and then wipe the projector. Strong cleaning detergents may discolor, warp or damage the coating on the projector. Make sure to test on a small, inconspicuous area on the projector before use.

Problem

The internal temperature is abnormally high.

Time to change the lamp.

The lamp does not illuminate.

The power indicator blinks in red when the projector is on.

Cause

• Blocked air intake

• Cooling fan

breakdown

• Internal circuit failure

• Clogged air intake

• The lamp is shut

down abnormally.

• Remaining lamp life becomes 5% or less.

• Burnt-out lamp

• Lamp circuit failure

• The lamp unit cover

is open.

Possible Solution

• Relocate the projector to an area with proper ventilation. (see page 8)

• Take the projector to your nearest Marantz Authorized Dealer or Service Center for repair.

• Disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet, and then connect it again.

• Carefully replace the lamp. (See page 55.)

• Take the projector to your nearest Marantz Authorized Dealer or Service Center for repair.

• Please exercise care when replacing the lamp.

• Securely install the cover.

• If the power indicator blinks

in red even when the lamp unit cover is securely installed, contact your nearest Marantz Authorized Dealer or Service Center for advice.

• If the temperature warning indicator illuminates, and the projector enters standby mode, follow the possible solutions above and then wait until the projector has cooled down completely before plugging in the power cord and turning the power back on. (At least 10 minutes.)

• If the power is turned off for a brief moment due to power outage or some other cause while using the projector, and the power supply recovers immediately after that, the lamp indicator will illuminate in red and the lamp may not be lit. In this case, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet, replace the power cord in the AC outlet and then turn the power on again.

• The cooling fan keeps the internal temperature of the projector constant and this function is controlled automatically. The sound of the cooling fan may change during operation because the fan speed may change and this is not a malfunction.

• Do not unplug the power cord after the projector has entered standby mode and while the cooling fan is running. The cooling fan runs for about 90 seconds.

Appendix

Regarding the Lamp

Lamp

■ It is recommended that the lamp (sold separately) be replaced when the remaining lamp life becomes 5% or less, or when you notice a significant deterioration in the picture and color quality. The lamp life (percentage) can be checked with the on-screen display. (see page 49)

■ Purchase a replacement lamp of type LU4001VP from your place of purchase, nearest Marantz Authorized Dealer or Service Center.

Caution Concerning the Lamp

■ This projector utilizes a pressurized mercury lamp. A loud sound may indicate lamp failure. Lamp failure can be attributed to numerous sources such as: excessive shock, improper cooling, surface scratches or deterioration of the lamp due to a lapse of usage time. The period of time up to failure largely varies depending on the individual lamp and/or the condition and the frequency of use. It is important to note that failure can often result in the bulb cracking.

■ When the lamp replacement indicator and on-screen display icon are illuminated, it is recommended that the lamp be replaced with a new one immediately, even if the lamp appears to be operating normally.

■ Should the lamp break, there is also a possibility that glass particles may spread inside of the projector. In such a case, it is recommended you contact your nearest Marantz Authorized Dealer or Service Center to assure safe operation.

■ Should the lamp break, the glass particles may spread inside the lamp cage or gas contained in the lamp may be vented into the room from the exhaust vent. Because the gas in this lamp includes mercury, ventilate the room well if the lamp breaks and avoid all exposure to the released gas. In case of exposure to the gas, consult a doctor as soon as possible.

Replacing the Lamp

• Do not remove the lamp unit from the projector right after use. The lamp will be very hot and may cause burn or injury.

■ Carefully change the lamp by following the instructions described in this section. * If you wish, you may have the lamp replaced at your nearest Marantz Authorized Dealer or Service Center.

* If the new lamp does not light after replacement, take your projector to the nearest Marantz Authorized

Dealer or Service Center.
