Important
Information
Precautions for Use

Cautions when transporting

z
Projection lens is susceptible to effects due to vibration or impact. Make sure to remove the lens when transporting.
z
When transporting the projector, hold it securely by its bottom and avoid excessive vibration and impacts.
Doing so may damage the internal parts and result in malfunctions.
z
Do not transport the projector with the adjustable feet extended. Doing so may damage the adjustable feet.

Cautions when installing

After installing the projection lens, make sure to attach the projection
lens cover.
z
If the cover is not attached, dust will be accumulated inside and can cause a trouble.
Do not set up the projector outdoors.
z
The projector is designed for indoor use only.
Do not use under the following conditions.
z
Places where vibration and impacts occur such as in a car or vehicle: Doing so may damage the internal
parts and result in malfunctions.
z
Near the exhaust of an air conditioner: Depending on the conditions of use, the screen may uctuate due to the hot
air from the air exhaust port or the heated or cooled air from the air conditioner. Take care so that the exhaust from
the projector or other equipment, or the air from the air conditioner does not blow toward the front of the projector.
z
Near lights (studio lamps, etc.) where temperature changes greatly (Operating environment (
page 105)):
Doing so may shorten the life of the lamp or result in deformation of the outer case and malfunctions.
z
Near high-voltage power lines or near motors: Doing so may interfere with the operation of the projector.
z
Place where there is a high-power laser equipment: It may cause malfunction in DLP chips when the laser
beam enters the lens.
Be sure to ask a specialized technician when installing the product to a ceiling.
If the product is to be installed hanging from the ceiling, purchase an optional Ceiling Mount Attachment (For
high ceilings: Model No. ET-PKD56H, For low ceilings: Model No. ET-PKD55S). Please call a specialized
technician or contact an Authorized Service Center for installation.
Lens Focus
Do not adjust the lens focus in the initial period after switching the projector on. The high clarity projection
lens is thermally affected by the light from the light source, making the focus unstable in the period just after
switching on. Please allow a warm-up time of at least 30 minutes before adjusting the lens focus.
Make sure to set [HIGH ALTITUDE MODE] to [ON] when using the
projector at elevations of 1 400 m (4 593 ft) or higher and lower than
2 700 m (8 858 ft) above sea level.
Failure to do so may shorten the life of the internal parts and result in malfunctions.
Make sure to set [HIGH ALTITUDE MODE] to [OFF] when using the
projector at elevations lower than 1 400 m (4 593 ft) above sea level.
Failure to do so may shorten the life of the internal parts and result in malfunctions.
Do not install the projector at elevations of 2 700 m (8 858 ft) or higher
above sea level.
Failure to do so may shorten the life of the internal parts and result in malfunctions.
Precautions for Use
ENGLISH - 13
Important
Information
Do not use the projector tilted right or left.
Using the projector at a vertical angle that exceeds 15
°
may reduce product life or result in malfunction.

Precautions for Use
ENGLISH - 15
Important
Information

Cautions on use

In order to get the picture quality
Draw curtains or blinds over 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 surface of the projection lens with your bare hands.
If the surface of the lens becomes dirty from ngerprints or anything else, this will be magnied and projected
onto the screen. Please put the lens cover (accessory) on the projector when you do not use it.
DLP chips
z
The DLP chips are precision-made. Note that in rare cases, pixels of high precision could be missing or
always lit, but this is not a malfunction.
z
Directing a high power laser beam onto the lens surface can damage the DLP chip.
Do not move the projector while it is operating or subject it to vibration
or impact.
The service life of its internal motor will be shortened.
Lamp
The luminous source of the projector is a mercury lamp with high internal pressure.
A high pressure mercury lamp has following characteristics.
z
The brightness of the lamp will decrease by duration of usage.
z
The lamp may burst with sound or shorten life by shock or chipping.
z
The life of the lamp varies greatly depending on individual specicities and usage conditions. In particular,
continuous use over 22 hours and frequent on/off switching of the power greatly deteriorate the lamp and
affect the lamp life.
z
Lamp deterioration accelerates when used continuously for 22 hours or more. Lamp deterioration due to
continuous use can be reduced by using the LAMP RELAY function (
page 63).
z
In rare cases, the lamp burst shortly after the projection.
z
The risk of bursting increases when the lamp is used beyond its replacement cycle. Make sure to replace
the lamp unit consistently. (
When to replace the lamp unit
(
page 91),
Replacing the lamp unit
(
page 92))
z
If the lamp bursts, gas contained inside of the lamp is released in a form of smoke.
z
It is recommended to store replacement lamps for contingency.
