Notes on use

In order to get the best picture quality

Draw curtains or blinds over any windows and turn off any lights near the
screen to prevent outside light or light from indoor lamps from shining onto
the screen.

Do not touch the surfaces of the lens with your bare hands.

If the surface of the lens becomes dirty from fingerprints or anything else, this
will be magnified and projected onto the screen. Moreover, when not using
the projector, retract the lens and then cover it with the lens cover.

Screen

Do not apply any volatile substances which may cause discolouration to the
screen, and do not let it become dirty or damaged.

Lamp

The lamp may need to be replaced earlier due to variables such as individual
lamp characteristics, usage conditions and the installation environment,
especially when the projector is subjected to continuous use for more than
10 hours or the power is frequently turned on and off.

Liquid crystal panel

B Do not project the same image for long periods of time, as this may remain

as an afterimage on the liquid crystal panel.

B The liquid crystal panel of the projector is built with very high precision

technology to provide fine picture details. Occasionally, a few non-active
pixels may appear on the screen as fixed points of blue, green or red.
Please note that this does not affect the performance of your LCD.

correction

Operation

Press the HHbutton. Press the IIbutton.

NOTE:

B

Vertical keystone distortion can be corrected to ±30° of the angle of tilt.
However, the greater the correction amount, the more the picture quality will
deteriorate, and the harder it will become to achieve a good level of focus. To
obtain the best picture quality, set up the projector and screen in such a way
that the amount of keystone correction required is as minimal as possible.

B The picture size will also change when correction of keystone distortion

is carried out.

B You can also correct keystone distortion from the “KEYSTONE” in the

NOTE:

B Be sure to turn off the MAIN POWER switch by following the procedure

given in “Turning off the power” on page 26 before carrying out any of
the procedures in the “Remedy” column.

B If the power turns off after the TEMP indicator has illuminated, it means

an abnormality has occurred. Please contact an Authorised Service
Centre so that the necessary repairs can be made.

When the TEMP indicator and the
LAMP indicator are illuminated

There are two indicators on the control panel of the projector which give
information about the operating condition of the projector. These indicators
illuminate or flash to warn you about problems that have occurred inside the
projector, so if you notice that one of the indicators is on, turn off the power
and check the table below for the cause of the problem.

ENGLISH-5150-ENGLISH

Cleaning and replacing the air filter

If the air filter becomes clogged with dust, the internal temperature of the
projector will rise, the TEMP indicator will illuminate and the projector’s
power will turn off (the TEMP indicator will flash after the power is turned off).

The air filter should be cleaned every 100 hours of use.

NOTE:

B Place the projector on top of a

soft cloth so that it will not
become scratched.

NOTE:

B Be sure to install the air filter

before using the projector. If
the projector is used without
the air filter installed, dust and
other foreign particles will be
drawn into the projector, and
malfunctions will result.

B If the dust cannot be removed

by cleaning, it is time to
replace the air filter. Please
consult your dealer.
Furthermore, if the lamp unit is
being replaced, replace the air
filter at this time also.

# Turn off the MAIN POWER

switch and disconnect the
mains plug from the mains
socket.

Turn off the MAIN POWER switch
according to the procedure given
in “Turning off the power” on page
26 before disconnecting the
mains plug from the mains socket.

$ Gently turn the projector

upside down.

& Clean the air filter.

Use a vacuum cleaner to clean
off any accumulated dust.

' Install the air filter.

Replacing the lamp unit

Warning

When replacing the lamp, allow it
to cool for at least one hour
before handling it.

B The lamp cover gets very hot,

and touching it can cause burns.

Notes on replacing the lamp
unit

B The light generating lamp is

made of glass, so dropping it or
allowing it to hit hard objects may
cause it to burst. Be careful when
handling the lamp.

B Dispose of the removed old lamp

with the same care that would be
taken with a fluorescent light.

B A Phillips screwdriver is

necessary for removing the lamp
unit.

Lamp unit replacement
period

The lamp is a consumable product.
Even when the full life of the bulb has
not been exhausted, the brightness
of the light will gradually decline.
Therefore periodic replacement of
the lamp is necessary.
The intended lamp replacement
interval is 3 000 hours, but it is
possible that the lamp may need to
be replaced earlier due to variables
such as a particular lamp’s
characteristics, usage conditions and
the installation environment.
Early preparation for lamp
replacement is encouraged.
The lamp will automatically shut off
after approximately 30 minutes when
3 000 hours of use have been
reached because of a much greater
chance of it exploding after this time.

NOTE:

B The projector is not supplied

with a replacement lamp unit.
Please ask your dealer for
details. Lamp unit product
no.: ET-LAE700

CAUTION:

B Do not use any lamp unit other

than the one with the product
number indicated above.

NOTE:

B The usage hours explained

above are for when “LAMP
POWER” in the “OPTION”
menu has been set to “HIGH”
and when “DYNAMIC IRIS” in
the “PICTURE” menu has
been set to “ON”. When
“LAMP POWER” has been set
to “HIGH” and “DYNAMIC
IRIS” has been set to “OFF”,
the usage hours will be 2 000
hours. If “LAMP POWER” is
set to “LOW”, the brightness of
the lamp will be less and life of
the lamp can be extended.

B While 3 000 hours is the

intended replacement interval,
it is not a period of time
covered by warranty.
