Precautions for use

ENGLISH

Important

Information

Adjustable feet

When viewing a 3D video, keystone correction is not available.

■

So that no keystone distortion occurs, place the projector parallel to the screen, and then install it on a at surface so that it can project within the range of lens shift.

When using an infrared communications device

■

If you use infrared communication devices (such as infrared cordless headphones or an infrared wireless mike), communications problems (such as noise) may occur. Therefore, use such devices in a location far away enough from the projector so as to have no effect, or install the receiver of the device in a location that is not struck by light from the projector.

■Installation precautions

Do not stack projectors.

Do not cover the projector’s air intake port or air exhaust port.

Install the projector so that cold air or hot air from air conditioners does not come in to direct contact with the air intake port

or air exhaust port.

100 mm (4") or more

Air exhaust port

zDo not install the projector in an enclosed space.

If the projector needs to be installed in an enclosure, provide a separate air conditioning unit or ventilating equipment. Emitted heat accumulates if ventilation is insufcient. This may cause the protection circuit of the projector to operate. Use the front adjustable feet for oor installation only and for angle adjustment in such cases.

If you use the adjustable feet for any other purpose, the set may be damaged.

Cautions on use

■

In order to view clear video images

Clear, high contrast video can be viewed when curtains are closed and lights near the screen are extinguished in

order to stop light from reaching the screen. In some rare cases, depending on the usage environment a “ickering” may appear on the screen due to the

effects of air from the exhaust port or hot/cold air from air conditioners. Do not set up this projector in a situation where air from the exhaust of this device or other devices, or air from air conditioners is circulated to the front of this device. The focus of high brightness projection lenses may not be stable immediately after turning power on due to the

effects of heat from light coming from light sources. Focus stabilizes 30 minutes after video projection starts.

Do not touch the surface of the projection lens with bare hands.

If ngerprints or dirt are left on the projection lens, they will be enlarged and projected and will prevent the viewing of clear video images. Also, always replace the lens cover when not using the projector.

About LCD panels

LCD panels are manufactured using high precision technologies, but in some cases they may have dead pixels, or permanently lit pixels. Please understand that this is not a fault. Also, projecting a still image for extended periods of time may lead to afterimages on LCD panels. Please be aware that in some cases these afterimages may not disappear completely.

About optical components

If using in an environment with a high temperature, or where dust or tobacco smoke is present, the replacement cycle of optical components such as LCD panels and polarizing plates may shorten even after less than one year of use. For more details, please contact your dealer.

About the lamp

■

This product uses an internal high pressure mercury lamp for the light source. High pressure mercury lamps have the following characteristics.

Brightness decreases with usage time.

In some cases, the lamp may make a large sound, crack, and reach the end of its lifespan as a result of shocks,

damage, and deterioration related to usage period. Large disparities occur in lifespan due to individual properties and usage conditions. Lifespan is especially

affected if you use the lamp continuously for more than 6 hours or switch it ON/OFF rapidly. Very occasionally the lamp may crack after starting projection.

The possibility of cracking increases as the lamp nears the end of its lifespan.

If the lamp cracks, gas may be leaked from inside and smoke may be seen.

Please prepare a spare lamp in advance.

About disposal

To dispose of the product, inquire your local authorities or dealer for correct methods of disposal. The lamp contains mercury. When disposing of used lamp units, contact your local authorities or dealer for correct methods of disposal.

About viewing 3D images

You can use the projector to view 3D videos by playing Blu-ray 3D compatible discs on a 3D Blu-ray player. This projector can also convert 2D videos to 3D for viewing.

To enjoy stereoscopic 3D images, Panasonic 3D Eyewear (optional accessory) is necessary. 3D Eyewear is not included with this projector.

See page 95 for the 3D image signals supported.

Supported 3D Eyewear (as of August 2011)

TY-ED3D3 Series (rechargeable) TY-ED3D2 Series (rechargeable) TY-ED3D10 Series (disposable battery) The product number of the 3D Eyewear differs depending on the country of purchase.

Viewing 3D images

■

Using the projector menu controls, set so that 3D images are shown.

You can watch 3D images in the following cases:

- When a 3D image supporting Blu-ray Disc is played on a 3D image supporting player/recorder connected using a HDMI cable to a 3D image supporting projector.

- 2D->3D (Simulated 3D) (



Attention

When using 3D Eyewear, also see the operating

instructions of the 3D Eyewear. When viewing 3D videos, be sure to set [3D IR

TRANSMITTER] to one of [STRONG], [MEDIUM], or [WEAK]. If an external 3D IR Transmitter (optional accessory) is connected, set the corresponding [TRIGGER 1/2 SETTING] to [3D SHUTTER OUT]. (

page 75)



When 3D Eyewear is used indoors with uorescent lights

on, the light may appear to icker. In such a case, turn off the uorescent lights. If the 3D Eyewear is worn upside down or backwards,

the 3D video cannot be seen correctly. When viewing 3D display, turn on the power supply for

the 3D Eyewear and then put it on. Do not use devices that generate strong electromagnetic

radiation (such as cell phones, handheld radios, etc.) close to the 3D Eyewear. This may cause the 3D Eyewear to malfunction. The 3D Eyewear cannot exhibit sufcient performance

at high or low temperatures. Follow the operation temperature range specied in the operating instructions for the 3D Eyewear. It may be difcult to view other displays (such as the

computer screen, digital clock, calculators etc.) while wearing the 3D Eyewear. Remove the 3D Eyewear when viewing other than 3D videos. When the projector is installed alongside another 3D

compatible display, the 3D videos may appear double due to the effect of the devices on each other. Install the projector after thoroughly considering the installation location.

Note

When viewing a 3D video, keystone correction settings

become inactive. If the 3D Eyewear is worn upside down or backwards,

the 3D video cannot be seen correctly. When viewing 3D display, turn on the power supply for

the 3D Eyewear and then put it on. The stereoscopic image effect experienced with the 3D

Eyewear may vary with individuals. The projection screen size when displaying 3D videos is

Cleaning the projector

■Cleaning the outer surface of the projector

Wipe off dirt and dust gently with a soft dry cloth.

If it is difcult to remove the dirt, soak a cloth in water,

wring the cloth well and then wipe the projector. Dry the projector with a dry cloth. Do not use petroleum benzene, thinner, any

alcoholic solvent, or kitchen detergents. Using these substances may result in changes or damage to the surface of the projector. When using a chemically treated cloth, follow the

accompanying guidelines.

■Cleaning the lens surface

If dirt or dust accumulates on the surface of the lens, it will be enlarged and projected onto the screen. Wipe dirt and dust from the front of the lens gently with a clean, soft, and dry cloth.

Do not use a uffy rag, or a greasy, wet, or dirty

cloth. Do not rub the lens harshly as this may damage the

surface.

Attention

The lens is made of glass. It may break or crack if struck

with a hard object or rubbed harshly. Please be careful when handling the lamp.

■Air lter unit

If too much dust accumulates in the air lter the internal temperature of the projector cannot be maintained at the normal level. A conrmation message is displayed on the screen, and at the same time <TEMP> illuminates red. The power is cut off automatically after a while. Clean the lter after every 100 hours of usage.

REPLACE LAMP

■When to replace the lamp unit

The lamp unit is a consumable component. Brightness decreases according to duration of usage, so periodical replacement of the lamp unit is necessary. A rough estimate for the usage period is 4 000 hours, but depending on the characteristics of individual lamps, usage conditions, periods of continuous use, and environmental conditions etc., the lamp may cease to illuminate prior to reaching 4 000 hours of use. It is recommended that you prepare a spare lamp unit in advance. As the risk of the lamp to cracking increases after 4 000 hours the lamp automatically turns off.

VIERA Link “HDAVI Control”

Preparations

■

Use fully wired HDMI compliant cable. Non-HDMI-

compliant cables cannot be utilized. Set up the connected equipment.

Switch the connected equipment on. Set [POWER ON LINK] in the setup menu.

(Please read the manual of the equipment for these setup.)

Set up the projector.

Switch the projector on. Set the input mode to [HDMI 1 IN], [HDMI 2 IN] or [HDMI 3 IN], and make sure that an image is displayed correctly. Select [VIERA LINK SETTINGS] in the [OPTION] menu. If the [VIERA LINK] is set to [ON], you need to select

[OFF] rst, and then switch to [ON] again to activate

the [ON] setting.

Note

This setup should be done each time when the following

conditions occur:

- When using for the rst time

- When adding or reconnecting equipment

- When changing setup

Connections to the equipment (DIGA Recorder, HD Camcorder, Player theater, Amplier, etc.) with HDMI cables allow you to interface them automatically.

These features are limited to models incorporating “HDAVI Control” and “VIERA Link”.

Some functions are not available depending on the

equipment’s version of HDAVI Control. Please conrm the connected equipment’s version of HDAVI Control. But some functions will not be able to perform even if the versions are the same. VIERA Link “HDAVI Control”, based on the control

functions provided by HDMI which is an industry standard known as HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), is a unique function that we have developed and added. As such, its operation with other manufacturers’ equipment that supports HDMI CEC cannot be guaranteed. Please refer to individual manuals for other

manufacturers’ equipment supporting Link function. About applicable Panasonic equipment, consult your

local Panasonic dealer.
