Notes on use

In order to get the best picture quality

Draw curtains or blinds over any windows and turn off any fluorescent 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 discoloration 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

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.

Wireless card (PT-LB10NTU only)

Static electricity from the human body can damage the wireless card. To prevent this, touch a nearby metallic object such as an aluminium sash or a door knob to dissipate the static charge from your body.

Correcting keystone distortion

Keystone distortion is corrected automatically when the projector’s automatic setup function is used, but this correction will not apply if the screen itself is tilted. In such cases, you can correct the keystone distortion manually with the following procedure.

correction

Operation

Press the HHbutton. Press the IIbutton.

KEYSTONE 0

NOTE:

B If you press the AUTO SETUP button after correcting the keystone

distortion manually, the automatic keystone correction function will operate and the corrected picture will return to its previous incorrect condition. To prevent this from happening, you can set “AUTO KEYSTN” in the “OPTION1” menu to “OFF”. (Refer to page 44.)

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.

Vertical keystone distortion correction only.

Press the F or G button on the projector or remote control unit to select an item, and then press the I or H button to change the setting. For items with bar scales, press the ENTER button or the I or H button to display the adjustment screen, and then press the I or H button to make the adjustment.

Replacing the lamp unit

Warning

The lamp unit should only be replaced by a qualified technician.

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

B The lamp cover gets very hot,

and contact with 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 2 000 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 10 minutes

when 2 000 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-LAB10

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 “OPTION2”

menu has been set to “HIGH”

and when “AI” in the

“PICTURE” menu has been set

to “OFF”. If “LAMP POWER” is

set to “LOW”, or “AI” is set to

“ON”, the life of the lamp can

be extended.

B While 2 000 hours is the

intended replacement interval,

it is not a period of time

covered by warranty.

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.

% Replace the air filter, and then

install the air filter cover.

Cleaning

Use a vacuum cleaner to clean off any accumulated dust.

Replacement procedure

# Turn off the power and

disconnect the power cord.

Be sure to disconnect the power

cord by following the procedure

given on page 26.

$ Gently turn the projector

upside down, and then remove the air filter cover.

NOTE:

B If the dust cannot be cleaned

by a vacuum cleaner, remove

the air filter and soak it in

water, and then wash out the

dust by hand. Be sure to install

the air filter after it has dried.

B Do not use detergent when

washing the air filter.

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.

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.
