Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for use
Precautions for use
Cautions when transporting
f Before using the projector, remove the dust sponge from the mounting portion of the projection lens and store it for the
future use. When transporting the projector, remove the projection lens before attaching the dust sponge. Otherwise dust will
accumulate inside and may cause malfunctions.
f When transporting the projector, hold it securely by its bottom and avoid excessive vibration and impacts. They may damage
the internal components and result in malfunctions.
f Do not transport the projector with the adjustable feet extended. Doing so may damage the adjustable feet.
Cautions when installing
rAfter attaching the projection lens, be sure to attach the lens mount cover.
Otherwise dust will accumulate inside and may cause malfunctions.
rDo not set up the projector outdoors.
The projector is designed for indoor use only.
rDo not set up the projector in the following locations.
f Places where vibration and impacts occur such as in a car or vehicle: Doing so may cause damage to internal components
or malfunction.
f Near the exhaust of an air conditioner: Depending on the conditions of use, the screen may uctuate in rare cases due
to the heated air from the air exhaust port or the hot or cooled air. Make sure 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.
f Places with sharp temperature uctuations such as near lights (studio lamps): Doing so may shorten the life of the lamp, or
result in deformation of the outer case due to heat, which may cause malfunctions.
The operating environment temperature of the projector should be between 0 °C (32 °F) and 45 °C (113 °F) when using it at
elevations lower than 1 400 m (4 593') above sea level, and between 0 °C (32 °F) and 40 °C (104 °F) when using it at high
altitudes (between 1 400 m (4 593') and 2 700 m (8 858') above sea level).
If you use the smoke cut lter, the operating environment temperature should be between 0 °C (32 °F) and 35 °C (95 °F).
However, it cannot be used at high altitudes.
f Near high-voltage power lines or near motors: Doing so may interfere with the operation of the projector.
f Places where there is high-power laser equipment: Directing a laser beam onto the projection lens surface causes damage
to the DLP chips.
rBe sure to ask a specialized technician or your dealer when installing the projector on
a ceiling.
The optional Ceiling mount bracket is required.
Model No.: ET-PKD510H (for high ceilings), ET-PKD510S (for low ceilings)
rFocus adjustment
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 the power. Wait at least 30 minutes with the image projected before adjusting the lens focus.
rMake sure to set [HIGH ALTITUDE MODE] to [ON] when using the projector at
elevations between 1 400 m (4 593') and 2 700 m (8 858') above sea level.
Failure to do so may shorten the life of the components and result in malfunctions.
rMake sure to set [HIGH ALTITUDE MODE] to [OFF] when using the projector at
elevations lower than 1 400 m (4 593') above sea level.
Failure to do so may shorten the life of the components and result in malfunctions.
rDo not install the projector at elevations of 2 700 m (8 858') or higher above sea level.
Doing so may shorten the life of the components and result in malfunctions.
rDo not use the projector tilted to the right or left.
Using the projector at a vertical angle that exceeds 15° may reduce product life or result in malfunction.
18 - ENGLISH
Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for use
rDo not install and use the projector in portrait setting.
rCautions when setting up the projector
f When installing the projector at the section other than the oor by using the adjustable feet, use six screw holes for ceiling
mount for xing the projector (as shown in the gure).
(Screw diameter: M6, tapping depth inside the projector: 30 mm (1-3/16"), torque: 4 ± 0.5 N·m)
f Make a clearance of at least 5 mm (3/16") between the projector bottom and the setting surface by inserting spacers
(metallic) between them.
Adjustable feet

Spacer
Screw holes for ceiling mount
(M6)
Adjustable feet
The positions of screw holes for ceiling mount and
adjustable feet
Ensure the inflow of air into the air intake port. Otherwise the
projector may not work properly.
f The adjustable feet can be removed if not needed in the installation. However, do not use the screw holes where the
adjustable feet were removed to x the projector in place.
Also, insert only the screws that are specied in the user manual of the optional accessories into the screw holes of the
adjustable feet. Failure to do so may cause damage to the projector.
f Use the adjustable feet only for the oor standing installation and for adjusting the angle. Using them for other purposes may
damage the projector.
f Do not stack projectors on top of each other.
f Do not use the projector supporting it by the top.
f Do not use the projector tilted at an angle that exceeds ±15° from the horizontal plane.
f Do not block the ventilation ports (intake and exhaust) of the projector.

rDo not move the projector or subject it to vibration or impact while it is operating.
Doing so may shorten the life of the built-in motor.
rLamp
The light source of the projector is a high-pressure mercury lamp.
A high-pressure mercury lamp has the following characteristics.
f The luminance of the lamp will decrease by duration of usage.
f The lamp may burst with a loud sound or have its service life shortened because of shock, chipping, or degradation due to
cumulative runtime.
f The lamp life varies greatly depending on individual differences and usage conditions. In particular, frequent on/off switching
of the power greatly deteriorate the lamp and affects the lamp life.
f Continuous use for over one week will deteriorate the lamp. The degradation of the lamp due to continuous use can be
reduced by using the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [LAMP RELAY].
f In rare cases, the lamps burst shortly after projection starts.
f The risk of bursting increases when the lamp is used beyond its replacement cycle. Make sure to replace the lamp unit
regularly.
(“When to replace the lamp unit” (x page 146), “How to replace the lamp unit” (x page 147))
f If the lamp bursts, gas contained inside of the lamp is released in the form of smoke.
