Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for use
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 feet extended. Doing so may damage the adjustable feet.
Cautions when installing
r Do not set up the projector outdoors.
f The projector is designed for indoor use only.
r Do not use under the following conditions.
f Places where vibration and impacts occur such as in a car or vehicle: Doing so may damage the internal parts and result in
malfunctions.
f Locations near the sea or areas affected by corrosive gas: Corrosion may damage internal components or cause the
projector to 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 0 °C (32 °F) and 40 °C (104 °F) when using it at
elevations lower than 1 200 m (3 937') above sea level*1, and between 0 °C (32 °F) and 30 °C (86 °F) when using it at high
altitudes (between 1 200 m (3 937') and 2 700 m (8 858') above sea level).
*1 When the operating environment temperature of the projector is between 35 °C (95°F) and 40 °C (104 °F), the lamp mode will change
to [ECO] automatically.
f Near high-voltage power lines or near motors: Doing so may interfere with the operation of the projector.
r Be 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.:
① ET-PKL100H (for high ceilings), ET-PKV400B (Projector Mount Bracket)
② ET-PKL100S (for low ceilings), ET-PKV400B (Projector Mount Bracket)
r Focus adjustment
The projection lens is thermally affected by the light from the light source, making the focus unstable in the period just after
switching on the power. It is recommended that the images are projected continuously for at least 30 minutes before the focus
is adjusted.
r Do not install the projector at elevations of 2 700 m (8 858') or higher above sea level.
Failure to do so may shorten the life of the internal parts and result in malfunctions.
r Do not tilt the projector or place it on its side.
Do not tilt the projector body more than approximately ±30 degrees vertically or ±15 degrees horizontally. Over tilting may
result in shortening the life of the components.

(19-11/16")
over 500 mm
(19-11/16")
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 Do not install the projector in a conned space.
When placing the projector in a conned space, a ventilation and/or air conditioning system is required. Exhaust heat may
accumulate when the ventilation is not enough, triggering the protection circuit of the projector.

Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for use
Cautions on use
r To get a good picture quality
f 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 lamps from shining onto the
screen.
r Do not touch the surface of the projector lens with your bare hands.
If the surface of the lens becomes dirty from ngerprints or anything else, this will be magnied and projected onto the screen.
Attach the supplied lens cap to the projection lens when you do not use the projector.
r LCD 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.
r Optical 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, deection panel and other optical parts may be shorter even if used for less than one
year. Consult your dealer for details.
r Do not move the projector or subject it to vibration or impact while it is operating.
Doing so may shorten the life of the built-in motor.
r Lamp
The light source of the projector is a high-pressure mercury lamp.
A high-pressure mercury lamp has the following characteristics.
f The luminance of the lamp will decrease by duration of usage.
f The 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 lamp life varies greatly depending on individual differences and usage conditions. In particular, continuous use for 12
hours or more and frequent off/on 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 99), "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.
r Computer and external device connections
When connecting a computer or an external device, read this manual carefully regarding the use of power cords and shielded
cables as well.
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 lamp contains mercury. When disposing of used lamp units, contact your local authorities or dealer for correct methods of
disposal.

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, Y/C signals, YCBCR/YPBPR signals and analog RGB signals (synchronous signals are
TTL level), and digital signal.
f Some computer models or graphics cards 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 page 109)
