lamps from shining onto the screen.
f Depending on where the projector is used, heated air from an exhaust port or warm or cold air from an air conditioner can
cause a shimmering effect on screen.
Avoid using in locations where exhaust or streams of air from projector, other devices and air conditioners ow between the
projector and the screen.
f The lens of projector is affected by the heat from the luminous source. Because of this, the focusing may not be stable right
after the power is turned on. Focusing is stabled after projecting image for 30 minutes and longer.
ENGLISH - 15
Chapter 1 Preparation - Precautions for use
rDo not touch the surface of the projector lens with your bare hand.
If the surface of the lens becomes dirty from ngerprints or anything else, this will be magnied and projected onto the screen.
rLCD Panel
The display unit of this projector comprises three LCD panels. Although an LCD panel is a product of high-precision
technology, some of the pixels on the projected image may be missing or constantly lit. Please note that this is not a
malfunction.
Displaying a still image for a longer time may result in an after-image on the LCD panels. If this happens, display the all white
screen in the Test pattern for an hour or more.
rOptical components
Operating the projector in an environment with high temperature or heavy exposure to dust or tobacco smoke will reduce the
service life of the optical components, such as the LCD panel and polarizing plate, and may necessitate their replacement
within less than one year of use. For details, consult your dealer.
rLamp
The luminous source of the projector is a mercury lamp with high internal pressure.
A high pressure mercury lamp has following characteristics.
f The brightness of the lamp will decrease by duration of usage.
f The lamp may burst with sound or shorten life by shock or chipping.
f The life of the lamp varies greatly depending on individual specicities and usage conditions. In particular, continuous use
over 6 hours and frequent on/off switching of the power greatly deteriorate the lamp and affect the lamp life.
f In rare cases, the lamp burst shortly after the projection.
f 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” (x page 98), "Replacing the lamp unit" (x page 99))
f If the lamp bursts, gas contained inside of the lamp is released in a form of smoke.
f It is recommended to store replacement lamps for contingency.
rComputer and external device connections
f When connecting a computer or an external device, read this manual carefully regarding the use of power cords and
shielded cables as well.
Notes on Using Wireless Connection
(Only for PT-LW373, PT-LW333, PT-LB423, PT-LB383 and PT-LB353)
Wireless connection function of the projector uses radio waves in the 2.4 GHz band.
A radio station license is not required, but be sure to read and fully understand the following items before use.
The wireless module (Model No.: ET-WML100) of optional accessories must be installed when you want to use the wireless
LAN function of this projector.
rDo not use near other wireless equipment.
The following equipment may use radio waves in the same band as the projector.
When the projector is used near these devices, radio wave interference may make communication impossible, or the
communication speed may become slower.
f Microwave ovens, etc.
f Industrial, chemical and medical equipment, etc.
f In-plant radio stations for identifying moving objects such as those used in factory manufacturing lines, etc.
f Designated low-power radio stations
r If at all possible, avoid the use of cellular phones, TV sets or radios near the projector.
Cellular phones, TV sets, radios and similar devices use different radio bands from the projector, so there is no effect on
wireless communication or the transmission and reception of these devices. However, radio waves from the projector may
produce audio or video noise.
r Wireless communication radio waves cannot penetrate steel reinforcements, metal,
concrete, etc.
Communication is possible through walls and oors made from materials such as wood and glass (except glass containing
wire mesh), but not through walls and oors made from steel reinforcements, metal, concrete, etc.
r Avoid using the projector in locations prone to static electricity.
If the projector is used in a location prone to static electricity, such as on a carpet, the wireless LAN or wired LAN connection
may be lost.
If the static electricity or noise make it impossible to establish a connection with the LAN, please press the power button on the
16 - ENGLISH
Chapter 1 Preparation - Precautions for use
remote control or the control panel to power off the projector, and eliminate the source of static electricity or noise, then turn on
the projector.
rUsing the projector outside the country
Note that depending on countries or regions there are restrictions on the channels and frequencies at which you can use the
wireless LAN.
rAvailable wireless LAN channels
The channels (frequency range) that can be used differ according to the country or region. Refer to the table below.
Country or region Standard Channels used Frequency band (Center frequency)
Global IEEE802.11b/g/n 1 - 11 channel 2.412 GHz - 2.462 GHz
The frequency and channel differ depending on the country.
Please use the wireless LAN feature in compliance with the laws of each country.
Note
f The wireless module (Model No.: ET-WML100) of the optional accessories is required if you want to use the wireless LAN
function of this projector.
About Wireless LANs
The advantage of a wireless LAN is that information can be exchanged between a PC or other such equipment and an
access point using radio waves as long as you are within range for radio transmissions.
On the other hand, because the radio waves can travel through obstacles (such as walls) and are available everywhere
within a given range, problems of the type listed below may occur if security-related settings are not made.
f A malicious third-part may intentionally intercept and monitor transmitted data including the content of e-mail and
personal information such as your ID, password, and/or credit card numbers.
f A malicious third-party may access your personal or corporate network without authorization and engage in the following
types of behavior.
Retrieve personal and/or secret information (information leak)
Spread false information by impersonating a particular person (spoong)
Overwrite intercepted communications and issue false data (tampering)
Spread harmful software such as a computer virus and crash your data and/or system (system crash)
Since most wireless LAN adapters or access points are equipped with security features to take care of these problems, you
can reduce the possibility of these problems occurring when using this product by making the appropriate security settings
for the wireless LAN device.
Some wireless LAN devices may not be set for security immediately after purchase. To decrease the possibility of
occurrence of security problems, before using any wireless LAN devices, be absolutely sure to make all security-related
settings according to the instructions given in the operation manuals supplied with them.
Depending on the specications of the wireless LAN, a malicious third-party may be able to break security settings by
special means.
Panasonic asks customers to thoroughly understand the risk of using this product without making security settings, and
recommends that the customer make security settings at their own discretion and responsibility.
Disposal
When disposing of the product, ask your local authority or dealer about the correct methods of disposal.
The lamp contains mercury. When disposing of the used lamp unit, ask your nearest local authorities or dealer about proper
disposal of the unit.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions or your local disposal rule or guidelines.

Projection distance formulas
To use a screen size not listed in this manual, check the screen size SD (m) and use the respective formula to calculate
projection distance.
The unit of all the formulae is m. (Values obtained by the following calculation formulae contain a slight error.)
If you want to calculate the projection distance with projected image size SD (unit: inch) by substituting, please assign 0.0254
times to the SD value.
