Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for use
Disposal
To dispose of the product, ask 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.
Cautions on use
To get a good picture quality
rr
In order to view a beautiful image in higher contrast, prepare an appropriate environment. 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.
rr
If the surface of the projection 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
rr
The DLP chips are precision-made. Note that in rare cases, pixels of high precision could be missing or always lit. Note that such
rf
phenomena does not indicate malfunction. This is not a malfunction.
Directing a high-power laser beam onto the lens surface can damage the DLP chips.
rf
Do not move the projector while it is operating or subject it to vibration or impact.
rr
Doing so may shorten the service life of its internal components.
Lamp
rr
The luminous source of the projector is a high-pressure mercury lamp.
A high-pressure mercury lamp has the following characteristics.
The luminance of the lamp will decrease by duration of usage.
rf
The lamp may burst with a loud sound or have its service life shortened because of shock, chipping, or degradation due to cumulative
rf
operating time.
The lamp life varies greatly depending on individual differences and usage conditions. In particular, frequently switching the power on/off
rf
accelerates lamp deterioration and greatly affects lamp life.
Continuous use for one week or longer accelerates lamp deterioration. Lamp relay function (x page 75) can be used to reduce
rf
deterioration caused by continuous use.
In rare cases, the lamps burst shortly after projection starts.
rf
The risk of bursting increases when the lamp is used beyond its replacement cycle. Make sure to replace the lamp unit regularly.
rf
(“When to replace the lamp unit” (x page 112), “Replacing the lamp unit” (x page 112))

Setting Remote control ID numbers
When you use the system with multiple projectors, you can operate all the projectors simultaneously or each projector individually using single
remote control, if a unique ID number is assigned to each projector.
After setting the ID number of the projector, set the same ID number on the remote control.
The factory default ID number of the projector is set to [ALL]. When using a single projector, keep pressing the <ID SET> button on
the remote control for at least three seconds to set the ID number of the remote control to [ALL]. In addition, when the ID number of
the projector is unknown, setting the ID number to [ALL] enables the remote control.
How to set
Press the <ID SET> button on the remote
1)
control.
Within five seconds, press the two-digit ID
2)
number set on the projector using the number
(<0> - <9>) buttons.
When the ID number is set to [ALL], you can control the
rf
projector regardless of the ID number setting of the projector.
Attention
Since the ID number of the remote control can be set without the projector, do not press the <ID SET> button carelessly. If the <ID SET>
rf
button is pressed and no number (<0> - <9>) buttons are pressed within the next ve seconds, the ID number returns to its original value
before the <ID SET> button was pressed.
The ID number set on the remote control will be stored unless it is set again. However, it will be erased if the remote control is left with dead
rf
batteries. Set the same ID number again when the batteries are replaced.
Note
Set the ID number of the projector from the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [PROJECTOR ID] (x page 73).
