IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Important Safeguards
These safety instructions are to ensure the long life of the unit and to prevent fire and shock. Please read them
carefully and heed all warnings.
Installation
• For best results, use the unit in a darkened room.
• Place the unit on a flat, level surface in a dry area away from dust and moisture.
• Do not place the unit in direct sunlight, near heaters or heat radiating appliances.
• Exposure to direct sunlight, smoke or steam can harm internal components.
• Handle the unit carefully. Dropping or jarring can damage internal components.
• Do not place heavy objects on top of the unit.
Power Supply
• The unit is designed to operate on a power supply of 100 - 240 V 50/60 Hz AC. Ensure that your power supply
fits these requirements before attempting to use the unit.
• Handle the power cable carefully and avoid excessive bending. A damaged cord can cause electric shock or
fire.
• Disconnect the power cable (main’s lead) from the power outlet after using the unit.
Before disconnecting the power cable, make sure that the STANDBY indicator lights in amber (not blinking or
in green).
Cleaning
• Disconnect the power cable (main’s lead) from the unit.
• Clean the cabinet of the unit periodically with a damp cloth. If heavily soiled, use a mild detergent. Never use
strong detergents or solvents such as alcohol or thinner.
• Use a blower or lens paper to clean the lens, and be careful not to scratch or mar the lens.
• Clean the ventilation slots and speaker grills on the unit periodically using a vacuum cleaner. If accumulated
dust blocks the ventilation slots, the unit will overheat, which may cause the unit to malfunction.
Use a soft brush attachment when using the vacuum cleaner. Do not use a hard attachment, such as a crevice
tool, to prevent the damage to the unit.
Lamp Replacement
• Be sure to replace the lamp when the Status indicator comes on. If you continue to use the lamp after 2000
hours of usage, the lamp will turn off.
Fire and Shock Precautions
• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the buildup of heat inside
the unit. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches) of space between the unit and walls.
• Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from falling into the unit. Do not attempt to retrieve
any objects that fell into the unit. Do not insert any metal objects such as a wire or screwdriver into the unit. If
something should fall into the unit, immediately disconnect the power cable from the unit and have the object
removed by a qualified KAGA COMPONENTS service person.
• Do not place any liquids on top of the unit.
Carrying around
When carrying the unit around, please use the storage case that comes with it and, to protect the lens from
scratches, always shut the Iris Lens Cover. Also, do not subject the unit to strong mechanical shock.
CAUTION – HOT!
The area around the exhaust vents is hot during and immediately after image projection.
To avoid burns, keep your hands away from this area.
Wait until the exhaust vents area cools off before touching it.
Do not look into the lens while the unit is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result.

Major Features
䡵 High-brightness, lightweight projector with wireless network presentation and PC-less
presentation functions
The synergy of DLP® technology and the unique optical design raises the efficiency of light usage. One DLP® chip reproduces
the three primary colors (red, green, and blue) required in the expression of color. These factors have enabled the achievement of high brightness together with compact size and light weight. Also, by employing wireless LAN technology, wireless
presentations can be made without having an RGB cable connection with the PC. Using the Image Viewer function enables
image files that have been saved on SD memory cards or USB memory devices to be presented without carrying around a
personal computer. (*
*1. For details, refer to the “Image Viewer / Wireless Network” section.
䡵 Sharp, clear picture
The DLP® display system affords RGB color fidelity and inconspicuous gaps between the individual dots, thereby permitting
the display of small characters and diagrams with distinct clarity.
䡵 Advanced Color Wheel (ACW) allows for further enhancement of color reproduction
KAGA COMPONENTS’ unique ACW preserves brightness, while allowing for superlatively enhanced color reproduction and
astoundingly clear picture quality attainable only with DLP® technology.
䡵 High contrast ration of 2000:1
DLP® technology employed in this projector makes possible an astonishing 2000:1 high contrast ratio.
By widening the difference of brightness between black and white, you can see a degree of sharpness that is greater than just
the brightness based on specifications.
䡵 Great moving image playback capabilities using the same principles as DLP® Cinema
KAGA COMPONENTS DLP® type projectors have the same makings as the DLP® Cinema used in movie theaters. Because
of their extremely fast response, even images with much movement – sports, movies – play smoothly without blurring.
䡵 Security lock function
The lock can be set so that a password must be input when the projector is started up. Without the correct password, no
operations other than turning the power on and off can be performed. This function effectively protects the projector from
unauthorized use.
䡵 Powerful functions for presentations
A wide variety of easy-to-set functions have been built into the projector, from a digital keystone correction function (used
when making settings) that corrects picture distortion, to an auto adjustment function that automatically identifies the PC
signal.
There is also a built-in “Presentation Timer” function for further presentation convenience.
䡵 Beautiful reproduction of high-quality images from DVD
Faithful reproduction of color tones gives rise to the display of natural images. High-quality images such as those from DVD
and digital high-definition television broadcasts bring out the display capabilities that are an essential strength of the DLP
display system projector.

Troubleshooting
Check the following matters before requesting servicing.
Problem
Power does not turn on
No image is produced
Image is distorted
Image is out of focus
Image is not in proper position and is not displayed
properly
Video image is crushed
Check
• Is the power cord plugged into a power outlet?
• Is the lamp cover properly mounted?
• Is the projector’s temperature high? To protect the projector, the power can-
not be turned on when the projector’s temperature is abnormally high.
• Has the lamp reached the end of its service life?
• Depending on the timing with which the power cord is plugged in (the power
is turned on), it may happen that the POWER indicator (LED) does not light
and the power does not turn on. This is not a malfunction. If this happens,
unplug the power cord then plug it back in.
• Is a connected input selected?
• Is the cable properly connected to the input terminal?
• When a computer is connected, are signals being output from the computer?
• Does the signal being input have a frequency usable with this projector?
• Are the brightness and contrast adjusted to the minimum?
• Is the STATUS indicator lit a steady red or flashing red?
• When the component signal of the DVD player is connected with the COM-
PUTER IN connector and the image is not output, is [Input Settings] of the
COMPUTER IN connector properly selected?
• For a Computer input, has the picture been properly adjusted?
• Is the projector properly installed?
• For trapezoidal (keystone) distortion, perform keystone adjustment.
Please note that depending on the projected picture and the projection conditions, it may not be possible to eliminate keystone distortion completely.
• Is the lens properly focused?
• Are the screen and projector installed at the proper distance?
• Does the projection distance exceed the focusing range?
• Is there condensation on the lens, etc.?
If the projector is moved from a cool storage area to a warm place and the
power is turned on, condensation may form on the lens or internal optical
parts. If this happens, wait until the condensation has evaporated before
using the projector.
• For a computer input, are the horizontal and vertical positions properly adjusted?
• Does the input signal have a compatible resolution and frequency? Check
the computer’s resolution.
• If the image is crushed in the horizontal or vertical direction or if it is not
displayed over the entire screen, select a different aspect ratio.

Cleaning
• 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. Do not leave rubber
or vinyl products in contact with the projector for long periods. 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
• Clean using the same method you would use to clean a camera lens: Use a commercial blower for camera use or cleaning
paper for eye glasses. Be careful not to scratch the lens at this time.
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 of usage.
• Switch off the power, check that the STANDBY indicator has
changed to a steadily lit green, then unplug the power cable.
• 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. Please be sure to contact
your dealer.
E-57

Replacing the Lamp Cartridge
• The lamp that is used as a light source in the projector has a limited service life. The rated service life of the lamp is
about 2000 hours (when used in normal mode only). This could be shortened depending on conditions of use and
other factors.
Note that lamp life will be extended when the projector is often used in Eco mode. (The rated service life of the lamp
means the average value of lamp life for lamps that have been manufactured over a long period, and it is derived from
test conditions at this company.)
• When the life of the lamp is exceeded, the STATUS indicator lights a steady red and the message [Replace the Lamp
Cartridge] is displayed on the screen. When this occurs, it is time to replace the lamp cartridge. Follow the procedure
described on Pages E-59 and E-60 and replace the lamp cartridge.
• If the projector is used another 100 hours after the lamp’s service life is reached, the power is set to the standby mode
and no longer turns on.
• Contact a store that sells the KG-PS100S/KG-PS120X/KG-PS125X for a replacement lamp. Indicate you need a KGLPS1230 replacement lamp for the KG-PS100S/KG-PS120X/KG-PS125X (order code 000-155).
CAUTION
• Replacement of the lamp cartridge is performed after switching off the power, waiting for the cooling fan to stop,
disconnecting the power plug from the power outlet, and then leaving the projector for about 60 minutes before
replacement is started. Replacement of the lamp cartridge during operation or immediately after operation stops will
cause burns because of the high temperature.
• Do not remove any screws other than those specified.
• Do not touch the lamp with bare hands. Doing so could shorten the life of the lamp.
• 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 the projector was purchased.

Reset the Lamp Timer.
Connect the power cable, switch on the power, and then reset.
Select [Info.] → [Lamp Timer Reset] on the menu and press the ENTER button. There is a change to the initialization
verification display. Press the ENTER button again. See “Lamp Timer Reset” on Page E-53.
Note:
After reaching the lamp service life, if the lamp is used for more than another 100 hours, it will not be possible to switch on the power. Should
this happen, while the projector is in the standby mode, simultaneously holding down the projector’s SOURCE button and AUTO button for
more than 5 seconds will clear the lamp timer. Checking that the STATUS indicator is out will show that the lamp timer has been cleared.
Contact a store that sells the KG-PS100S/KG-PS120X/KG-PS125X for a replacement lamp. Indicate you need a KG-LPS1230 replacement
lamp for the KG-PS100S/KG-PS120X/KG-PS125X (order code 000-155).
