Important Safeguards

These safety instructions are to ensure the long life of your projector
and to prevent fire and shock. Please read them carefully and heed all
warnings.

Installation

1. For best results, use your projector in a darkened room.

2. Place the projector on a flat, level surface in a dry area away from
dust and moisture.

3. Do not place your projector in direct sunlight, near heaters or heat
radiating appliances.

4. Exposure to direct sunlight, smoke or steam can harm internal com­ponents.

5. Handle your projector carefully. Dropping or jarring can damage in­ternal components.

6. Do not place heavy objects on top of the projector.

7. If you wish to have the projector installed on the ceiling:

a. Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
b. The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure

proper operation and reduce the risk of bodily injury.

c. In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector

and the installation must be in accordance with any local building codes.

d. Please consult your dealer for more information.

To Dealer or Installer:

To prevent the projector from falling, install it in a place and fasten it in
a way with sufficient strength to support the combined weight (17.0 kg/

37.5 lbs) of the projector (12.8 kg/28.3 lbs), the lens (2.0 kg/4.4 lbs)

and the ceiling mount(2.1 kg/4.7 lbs) for an extended period of time as
well as to withstand earthquakes.

Power Supply

1. The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-120
or 200-240 V 50/60 Hz AC. Ensure that your power supply fits this
requirement before attempting to use your projector.

2. Handle the power cable carefully and avoid excessive bending. A
damaged cord can cause electric shock or fire.

3. If the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time,
disconnect the plug from the power outlet.

Cleaning

1. Unplug the projector before cleaning.

2. Clean the cabinet periodically with a damp cloth. If heavily soiled,
use a mild detergent. Never use strong detergents or solvents such
as alcohol or thinner.

3. Use a blower or lens paper to clean the lens, and be careful not to
scratch or mar the lens.

CAUTION

Do not unplug the power cable from the wall outlet under any one
of the following circumstances. Doing so can cause damage to
the projector:

• While the message "Please wait a moment." appears. This message
will be displayed after the projector is turned off.

• Immediately after the power cable is plugged into the wall outlet (the
POWER indicator has not changed to a steady orange glow).

• Immediately after the cooling fan stops working (The cooling fan con­tinues to work for three minutes after the projector is turned off with
the POWER button).

• While the POWER and the STATUS indicators are alternately flashing.

CAUTION

• Do not put the projector on its side when the lamp is turned on.
Doing so may cause damage to the projector.

• Before shipping this projector, remove the lens and attach the lens
hood cap.
The Lens Shift mechanism may encounter damage caused by improper
handling during transportation.

Lamp Replacement

• To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page E-52.

• Be sure to replace the lamp when the message "The Lamp has

reached the end of its usable life. Please replace the lamp."

appears. If y ou continue to use the lamp after the lamp has reached
the end of its usable life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of
glass may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the
pieces of glass may cause injury . If this happens, contact your NEC
dealer for lamp replacement.

• Allow a minimum of three minutes to elapse after turning off the
projector. Then disconnect the pow er cab le and allow 60 minutes to
cool the projector before replacing the lamp.

Fire and Shock Precautions

1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unob­structed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your projector. Allow
at least 3 inches (10 cm) of space between your projector and a
wall.

2. Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from
falling into your projector . Do not attempt to retriev e any objects that
might fall into your projector . Do not insert any metal objects such as
a wire or screwdriver into your projector . If something should f all into
your projector, disconnect it immediately and have the object re­moved by a qualified NEC service personnel.

3. Do not place any liquids on top of your projector.

4. When using a LAN cable:
For safety, do not connect to the connector for peripheral device
wiring that might have excessive Voltage.

E – iv

CAUTION

• Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to

your eyes could result.

• Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the

projector. The light being projected from the lens is extensive, there­fore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out of
the lens, can cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury to the
eyes.

• Do not cover the lens with the supplied lens hood cap or equivalent

while the projector is on. Doing so can lead to melting of the cap and
possibly burning your hands due to the heat emitted from the light
output.

Mesures de sécurité importantes

Ces instructions de sécurité garantissent la longévité de v otre projecteur
et préviennent les risques d’incendie et de décharge électrique. Lisez­les et respectez les conseils.

Installation

1.

2. Placez le projecteur sur une surface plane et à niveau, dans un
endroit sec à l’abri de la poussière et de l’humidité.

3. Ne placez pas votre projecteur en plein soleil‚ à côté d’appareils de
chauffage ou d’appareils dégageant de la chaleur.

4. L’exposition en plein soleil‚ la fumée ou la vapeur peuvent
endommager des composants internes.

5. Manipulez votre projecteur avec précaution. Une chute ou un choc
peuvent endommager des composants internes.

6. Ne placez pas d’objets lourds sur le projecteur.

7. Si vous voulez installer le projecteur au plafond:

en marche. Vous risquez de vous blesser gr avement aux yeux.

• Maintenez tout ce qui s’apparente à une loupe en dehors du faisceau
lumineux du projecteur. La lumière projetée par l’objectif est très

faisceau provenant de l’objectif, ce qui pourrait avoir des
conséquences imprévues telles qu’un incendie ou une lésion
occulaire.

• Ne bouchez pas l’objectif avec son couvercle fourni lorsque le
projecteur est allumé. Faire cela pourrait faire f ondre le couv ercle et

Remote Control Precautions

• The remote control system may not function when direct sunlight or
strong illumination strikes the remote control sensor of the main unit,
or when there is an obstacle in the path.

• When remote control buttons are pressed and held, projector’s func­tion keys may not operate.

• Do not subject to strong shock.

• Do not allow water or other liquid to splash on the remote control. If

the remote control gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.

• Avoid exposure to heat and steam.

• Remove the batteries from the remote control when the remote con-

trol is not going to be used for a long period.

Remote Control Battery Installation

Installing the Remote Control Batteries
When it comes time to replace the batteries, two "AAA" type will be
required.

1. Press and open the cover.

Operating Range for Wireless Remote Control

The infrared signal operates by line-of-sight up to a distance of ap­proximately 7m (20 feet) and a 60 degree angle of the remote sensor.
The projector will not function if there are objects between the remote
sensor and the remote control or if strong light falls on the remote
sensor. Weak batteries will also prevent the projector from operating
properly.

Lens Shift Range for Desktop and Ceiling Mount Application
The diagram below shows the location of the image position in the
lens. The lens can be shifted within the shaded area as shown using
the normal projection position as a starting point.

NOTE: Lens shift feature is not available on GT10RL(fixed lens).

Maximum Possible Range for GT19ZL/GT34ZL (GT13ZL):

Up: 0.5 V (0.43V)
Down: 0.5 V (0.43V)
Right: 0.25 H
Left: 0.25 H
(H: width of projected image, V: height of projected image)

NOTE: If lens is shifted in two directions combined, maximum range in either
direction cannot be obtained due to rounded off area near edge of lens. (ex­ample: shift up and right) See diagram below.
