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 – 120/220 – 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 (mains 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 (mains 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 (3 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 PLUS service person.
• Do not place any liquids on top of the unit.
Cautions on Handling the Storage Case
• Do not put anything other than the unit or its accessories in the storage case. Paper clips, staples or other metal
or foreign objects getting inside could cause fire or electric shock.
• Do not swing the storage case around when the unit is inside. Also do not force objects that are too large to fit
into the storage case. Doing so could scratch or damage the unit.
When Moving the Unit
• When moving the unit to a different place, put it in the included storage case and place the storage case in an
insulating package to protect against falls and shocks.
• If there are paper clips, staples or other metal or foreign objects inside the storage case, the objects could get
inside the unit while the unit is being moved, causing fire or electric shock when the power is turned on.
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 Lightweight high-intensity projector
The synergy of the DLP™ (Digital Light Processing) display system and our own optical design serve to improve the optical
utilization efficiency. The three primary colors (RGB) required in color expression are reproduced with one DMD (Digital
Micromirror Device of high precision). These factors have enabled a design that offers both high intensity and small size/
lightweight features.
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 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.
A presentation timer that supports presentations and a security lock function protecting against unauthorized projection have
also been added.
䡵 High contrast ratio of 2000:1
Use of a new generation of DMD devices has given birth to an amazing 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 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.
䡵 Econo-mode switch function for the lamp output
Using the lamp Econo-mode will extend the life of the lamp and lower the power consumption.
By switching the lamp mode to suit your operating environment, you will save on lamp cost as well as contribute to energy
conservation and ecology.

Placement Guide
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.
The required installation height can be found using the following formula:
[Height from center of lens to top edge of the projection] m (feet) + 0.05m (0.16 feet) + Stand height
Example: Using a 150" 4:3 screen and placing the projector horizontally, the required installation height will be
2.68m (8.79 feet) + 0.05m (0.16 feet) = 2.73m (8.95 feet) (without a stand)
An installation room with a height of 2.4m (7.87 feet) 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.)

To Output the External Output Signal of 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.
Check whether a signal is being sent from the notebook computer to the projector.
1
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 “Resolution” or “Frequency” is not displayed under “Info.” on the menu of the projector, this means that
the external output signal is not being output from the personal computer. See “Resolution/Frequency” on Page E-60.
Should a sign not be output from the notebook computer, please try the operation described below.

Note: Table information is current to December 2003.
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 display shows a correct indication. 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.
