Installation Height of Projection Screen [Reference]
Once the installation location and position have been decided, the projection
height should be checked. In the case of large screen sizes, there are instances
where the image cannot be projected within the floor to ceiling height.

H dimension
7.2 cm(2.8 inch)
Stand dimension
The required installation height can be found using the following formula:
Screen size vertical cm(inch) + H cm(inch) + 7.2 cm(2.8 inch) + Stand height
Example: Using a 150" 4:3 screen and placing the projector horizontally, the required installation height will be
228.6 cm(90 inch) + 45.5 cm(17.9 inch) + 7.2 cm(2.8 inch) = 281.3 cm(110.7 inch)
(without a stand)
An installation room with a height of 240 cm(94.5 inch) will have insufficient room
height even when the projector is placed on the floor. (Note that the rear adjusters can be raised to lower the projection screen image.)
Note:
* Determine the screen size after checking the height and width of the room in which the screen will be installed as well as checking that there are no obstacles
located in the path between the lens and the screen.
* The larger the screen size becomes, the darker the image will be.
Placing the projector to the rear of the screen to project the image will require the use of a translucent type screen.
* The height from the feet of the main unit to the center of the lens is 7.2 cm (2.8inch).
* There is a tolerance of ±5% due to design values.
Attention!
• Do not install in location that will reach high or low temperatures. (Operation temperature: within 5°C (41°F) to 35°C (95°F))
•To raise the projection screen position, place the unit on a stable and strong support.
• Make efforts to ensure that sunlight or room illumination does not strike the screen. The more such extraneous light is
shielded, the higher the contrast and more attractive the image that will be obtained.

Obtaining an External Output Signal from a Notebook Computer.
When projection will be with a notebook computer connected, knowledge will be required for the cable connection and notebook
computer startup procedure as well as the operation that follows notebook startup. Please consult the instruction manual of your
notebook computer or the on-line help while performing the following procedure.
1 Check whether a signal is being sent from the notebook computer to the projector.
An indication appearing on the liquid crystal display of the notebook computer does not necessarily mean that an external output
signal is- being output.
Reference: When the frequency under [Info.] of the projector menu is displayed as 0 kHz, 0 Hz, it indicates that an external
output signal is not being output from the personal computer. → Page E-43 "Viewing the Lamp Timer/Resolution and Frequency"
2 Should a signal not be output from the notebook computer, please try the operation described
below.
For an IBM PC/AT, DOS/V computer, press the [Fn] key plus any one of the [F1] to [F12] keys. (See the table below.)

Note: Table information is current to June 2001.
Note: When the liquid crystal display of the notebook computer and the projector are displayed at the same time, the projected image might not be correct even
though the liquid crystal screen shows a proper display. Should this occur, stop the simultaneous display of the notebook computer and try the mode with external
output only. (Try an operation such as that described in aforementioned Step 2 and try closing the liquid crystal panel which might result in external output only.)

Replacing the Lamp Cartridge
䡵 After the lamp has been operating for 1000 hours or longer, the STATUS indicator
will light and the message "Replace The Lamp" will appear on the screen. Also,
when 1,100 hours is exceeded, the warning "Warning! System Shutdown" will be
displayed for 10 seconds.
Should this happen, it is time to replace the lamp cartridge. Please specify the following information when ordering a replacement lamp cartridge:
䡵 Replacement lamp model HE-3100L
Part number: 27-050
NOTE: The projector lamp has its usable life.
The rated lamp life is about 1000 hours. However, it may become shorter depending on the
conditions of usage.
(The rated lamp life is the average life of the
lamps produced and tested, under the test conditions of our company, for a long term.)
CAUTION
When replacing the lamp cartridge, switch off the power and check that the POWER/ indicator has changed to steady
orange. Switch off the power switch of the projector, disconnect the power plug from the outlet, and wait about 60 minutes
(for the lamp cartridge to cool) before replacing.
Wait at least 60 minutes for the lamp cartridge to cool.
DO NOT TOUCH THE LAMP CARTRIDGE immediately after it has been used. It will be extremely hot.
䡵 Do not remove any screws except for those mentioned in the instructions below.
䡵 Do not touch the lamp. Doing so may shorten the lamp life.
䡵 The lamp may explode if improperly mishandled.
䡵 If lamp has reached the end of its usable life, the lamp bulb may shatter. When this happens, an explosive sound can be heard
and pieces of glass may be scattered in the lamp cartridge. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury. If this
happens, contact your dealer or the store where the projector was purchased.
Preparation:Unplug the projector. Prepare the new lamp cartridge and a plus-headed screwdriver.
Lay a soft cloth sheet underneath the projector with its upside down to prevent scratches.

Cleaning
Attention!
* Be certain to disconnect the power plug from the power outlet before cleaning.
* Do not spray or otherwise expose the projector, lens, or screen to volatile substances such as insecticides. Doing so
could cause them to undergo qualitative changes or the coatings may peel, etc.
Cleaning a Soiled Projector Main Unit
* Wipe with a lint-free, soft, dry cloth.
When very dirty, wipe with a cloth that has been moistened with a diluted neutral detergent, then finish with a dry cloth. If a
chemically-treated cloth is going to be used, please follow any written warnings.
* Do not wipe with thinner, benzene, or other solvents. Doing so could cause them to undergo qualitative changes or the coatings
may peel, etc.
* When removing the dust of the outflow and intake holes, use the brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner to clean out the dust.
Avoid using the vacuum directly without attaching the adapter as well as the use of a nozzle adapter.
* Do not scratch or otherwise hit the projector body with your nails or other hard object, since this will cause scratches.
Dirty Lens
The lens surface has been treated with a special coating. Consult your PLUS dealer for cleaning.
Dust of the Intake and Outflow Holes
Dust that collects in the intake and outflow holes will obstruct the ventilation and cause the internal temperature to rise which could
cause damage. Clean this area carefully. As a guideline, clean at least every 100 hours.
* Switch off the power with the ON/STANDBY
button and check that the POWER/ indicator has changed to a steadily lit orange, then
switch off the main power with the POWER
switch of the main unit. Finally, disconnect the
power cord.
* Clean out the holes from the outside using a
vacuum cleaner. Use the brush adapter of the
vacuum cleaner to do this. Avoid using the
vacuum directly without attaching the adapter
as well as the use of a nozzle adapter.

Cleaning the Inside of the Projector
Cleaning of the inside of the projector is required about once a year. Failure to clean over a long period while dust has collected
inside the projector could cause a fire or breakdown. Do not clean the inside of the projector by yourself. Be sure to consult your
PLUS dealer.
