About lead free solder (PbF)
WARNING
This service information is designed for experienced repair technicians only and is not designed for use by the general public.
It dose not contain warnings or cautions to advise non-technical individuals of potential dangers in attempting to service a product.
Products powered by electricity should be serviced or repaired only by experienced professional technicians. Any attempt to service
or repair the product or products dealt with in this service information by anyone else could result in serious injury or death.
WARNING : Use UV Radiation eye and skin protection during servicing
(Refer to “PROJECTOR SETUP menu” in Operating Instructions.)
Failure to observe this may cause malfunctions. Never use this projector at an altitude of 2 700 m or higher above sea level.
Using this projector at high altitude, consult your dealer or Authorized Service Center about preparations.
This projector is using the P.C.Board which applies lead free solder.
Use lead free solder in servicing from the standpoint of antipollution for the global environment.
Notes:
・ Lead free solder: Sn-Ag-Cu (tin, silver and copper) has a higher melting point (approx. 217°C) than standard solder. Typically the melting point
・ Is 30~40 °C higher. When servicing, use a high temperature soldering iron with temperature limitation function and set it to 370 ± 10 °C.
・ Be precautious about lead free solder. Sn-Ag-Cu (tin, silver and copper) will tend to splash when heated too high (approx. 600°C or higher).
・ Use lead free solder for the P.C.Board (specified on it as “PbF”) which uses lead free solder. (When you unavoidably use lead solder, use lead
・ Solder after removing lead free solder. Or be sure to heat the lead free solder until it melts completely, before applying lead solder.)

The LAMP indicator will light yellow when the total lamp used time (Corresponding value) reaches 2,500 hours. This
is to indicate that lamp replacement is required. The total lamp used time is calculated by using the below expression.
Total lamp used time (Corresponding value) = Tnormal + Teco x 0.625
Tnormal : used time in the normal mode
Teco : used time in the eco mode
You can check the lamp used time following to the below procedure.
1 Press and hold the button on the projector or the remote control for more than 20 seconds.
2 The projector used time and lamp used time will be displayed on the screen briefly as follows.

Maintenance
Cleaning
After long periods of use, dust and other particles will accumulate on the LCD panel, prism, mirror, polarized
glass, lens, etc., causing the picture to darken or color to blur. If this occurs, clean the inside of optical unit.
Remove dust and other particles using air spray. If dirt cannot be removed by air spray, disassemble and clean
the optical unit.
Cleaning with air spray
Remove the cabinet top following to “Mechanical Disassembly”. Clean up the LCD panel and polarizing plate by
using the air spray from the cabinet top opening.
Caution:
Use a commercial (inert gas) air spray designed for cleaning camera and computer equipment. Use a resin-based
nozzle only. Be very careful not to damage optical parts with the nozzle tip. Never use any kind of cleanser on the
unit. Also, never use abrasive materials on the unit as this may cause irreparable damage.
Disassembly Cleaning
Disassembly cleaning method should only be performed when the unit is considerable dirty and cannot be
sufficiently cleaned by air spraying alone.
Be sure to readjust the optical system after performing disassembly cleaning.
1. Remove the cabinet top and main units following to “Mechanical Disassembly”.
2. Remove the optical base top following to “Optical Unit Disassembly”. If the LCD panel needs cleaning, remove
the LCD panel unit following to “LCD panel replacement”.
3. Clean the optical parts with a soft cloth. Clean extremely dirty areas using a cloth moistened with alcohol.
Caution:
The surface of the optical components consists of multiple dielectric layers with varying degrees of refraction. Never
use organic solvents (thinner, etc.) or any kind of cleanser on these components.
Since the LCD panel is equipped with an electronic circuit, never use any liquids (water, etc.) to clean the unit. Use
of liquid may cause the unit to malfunction.
Cleaning the projection lens
Unplug the AC power cord before cleaning.
Gently wipe the projection lens with a cleaning cloth that contains
a small amount of non-abrasive camera lens cleaner, or use a lens
cleaning paper or commercially available air blower to clean the lens.
Avoid using an excessive amount of cleaner. Abrasive cleaners, solvents, or other harsh chemicals might scratch the surface of the lens.
Cleaning the projector cabinet
Unplug the AC power cord before cleaning.
Gently wipe the projector body with a soft dry cleaning cloth. When
the cabinet is heavily soiled, use a small amount of mild detergent and
finish with a soft dry cleaning cloth. Avoid using an excessive amount
of cleaner. Abrasive cleaners, solvents or other harsh chemicals might
scratch the surface of the cabinet.
When the projector is not in use, put the projector in an appropriate carrying case to protect it from dust and scratches.
