Precautions for use
Cautions when transporting
f 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.
f Do not transport the projector with the adjustable foot extended. Doing so may damage the adjustable foot.
Cautions when installing
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 5 °C (41 °F) and 40 °C (104 °F) when using it
at elevations lower than 1 400 m (4 593') above sea level, and between 5 °C (41 °F) and 35 °C (95 °F) when using it at high
altitudes (between 1 400 m (4 593') and 2 700 m (8 858') above sea level).
f Near high-voltage power lines or near motors: Doing so may interfere with the operation of the projector.
rBe sure to ask a specialized technician when installing the product to a ceiling.
This requires an optional ceiling mount bracket. Be sure to use the Projector Mount Bracket together with the ceiling mount
bracket for high ceilings or low ceilings.
Model No.:

ENGLISH - 15
Chapter 1 Preparation - Precautions for use
Cautions on use
rTo get a good picture quality
f 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.
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.
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 88), "Replacing the lamp unit" (x page 89))
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.

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.

Chapter 2 Getting Started - Connecting
Connecting
Before connecting
f Before connecting, carefully read the operating instructions for the external device to be connected.
f Turn off the power switch of the devices before connecting cables.
f Take note of the following points before connecting the cables. Failure to do so may result in malfunctions.
- When connecting a cable to a device connected to the projector or the projector itself, touch any nearby metallic objects to
eliminate static electricity from your body before performing work.
- Do not use unnecessarily long cables to connect to a device connected to the projector or to the projector body. The longer
the cable, the more it is susceptible to noise. Since using a cable while it is wound makes it act like an antenna, it is more
susceptible to noise.
- When connecting cables, connect GND rst, then insert the connecting terminal of the connecting device in a straight
manner.
f If any connection cable is not supplied with the device, or if no optional cable is available for connection of the device,
prepare a necessary system connection cable to suit the device.
f Video signals containing too much jitter may cause the images on the screen to randomly wobble or wafture. In this case, a
time base corrector (TBC) must be connected.
f The projector accepts Video signals, S-video signals and YCBCR/YPBPR signals and analog RGB signals (synchronous
signals are TTL level), and digital signal.
f Some computer models are not compatible with the projector.
f When using long cables to connect with each of equipment to the projector, there is a possibility that the image will not be
output correctly unless a compensator is used.
f For details on what video signals the projector supports, see “List of compatible signals”. (Æ pages 97 - 98)
