everywhere within a given range, problems of the type listed below may occur if security-related settings are not
made sufciently.
f Communication content leak
The following communication information may be leaked by a malicious third party who intentionally intercept
the transmitted data.
g Personal information such as your ID, password, and/or credit card numbers
g The e-mail content
f Unauthorized access
A malicious third party may access your personal or corporate network without authorization and engage in the
following types of behavior.
g Retrieve personal and/or secret information (information leak)
g Spread false information by impersonating a particular person (spoong)
g Overwrite intercepted communications and issue false data (tampering)
g 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

Chapter 1 Preparation - Precautions for use
Storage
When storing the projector, keep it in a dry room.
Disposal
To dispose of the product, ask your local authorities or dealer for correct methods of disposal.
The luminous lamp contains mercury. When disposing of used lamp units, contact your local authorities or dealer
for correct methods of disposal.
Cautions on use
rTo get a good picture quality
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 lamp from shining
onto the screen.
rDo not touch the surface of the projector lens with your bare hands.
If the surface of the projection lens becomes dirty from ngerprints or anything else, this will be magnied and
projected onto the screen.
It is recommended to attach the supplied lens cap to the projection lens when you do not use the projector.
rLCD panel
The LCD panel is precision-made. Note that in rare cases, pixels of high precision could be missing or always
lit. Note that such phenomena do not indicate malfunction. If still images are projected for a long time, a residual
image may remain on the LCD panel. Note that the residual image may not disappear.
rOptical parts
When the operating environment temperature is high or in environments where lots of dust, cigarette smoke, etc.
is present, the replacement cycle of the LCD panel, polarizing plate and other optical parts may be shorter even if
used for less than one year. Consult your dealer for details.
rLuminous lamp
The light source of the projector is a mercury lamp with high internal pressure.
A high-pressure mercury lamp has the following characteristics.
f The luminance of the luminous lamp will decrease by duration of usage.
f The luminous 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 life of the luminous lamp varies greatly depending on individual specicities and usage conditions. In
particular, continuous use over 12 hours and frequent switching off/on of the power greatly deteriorate the
luminous lamp and affect the luminous lamp life.
f In rare cases, the luminous lamp burst shortly after the projection.
f The risk of bursting increases when the luminous lamp is used beyond its replacement cycle. Make sure to
replace the lamp unit consistently. (“When to replace the lamp unit” (x page 118), "Replacing the lamp unit"
(x page 118))
f If the luminous lamp bursts, gas contained inside of the luminous lamp is released in a form of smoke.
f It is recommended to store replacement lamp for contingency.
