IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Important Safeguards
These safety instructions are to ensure the long life of the unit and to pre v ent fire and shoc k.
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.
•For PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT, the socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment
and shall be accessible.
• 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 POWER 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 accum ulated dust blocks the v entilation slots, the unit will ov erheat, which ma y
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 1000 hours of usage, the lamp will turn off.
E-3
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
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 f oreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from f alling 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.
• Do not look into the lens while the unit is on. Serious damage to your eyes could
result.
Carrying around
When carrying the unit around, please use the carrying case that comes with it and, to protect
the lens from scratches, always shut the sliding lens cap. Also, do not subject the unit to
strong mechanical shock.

Major Features
Book-sized, lightweight (at about 0.9 kg/2.0 lbs) and small high-intensity mobile projector
DMDTM and the synergistic effects of our own optical design serve to improve the optical utilization
efficiency . The three light sources (RGB) required in color e xpression are reproduced with one DMDTM.
These factors have enabled a design that offers both high intensity and small size/lightweight features.
Sharp, clear picture
The absence of RGB color infidelity and the inconspicuous gaps between the individual dots permit
the display of small characters and diagrams with distinct clarity. An up-close look rev eals the difference even more.
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 other sources bring out the display capabilities that are an essential
strength of the digital projector.
Heightened effectiveness with picture in picture
The video image is projected as a sub-picture within the personal computer picture. This e xpands the
usefulness of the projector even more.
Digital technology corrects the horizontal and vertical keystone distortion of the projected picture
New technology is used to correct the horizontal keystone distortion in addition to the regular keystone correction. This permits even simpler setup adjustments.
Connection permitted for personal computers equipped with DVI connectors
Inclusion of a DVI connector allows the input of analog RGB signals as well as digital RGB signals.
(The supplied conversion cable supports personal computers having a regular analog RGB connector. See the Table of Supported Frequencies on Page 69 for information about display resolution.)

outlet?
* Is the lamp cover properly attached?
* Has the internal temperature become high? When the
internal temperature becomes very high, to protect
the unit the power will not switch on.
* Has the lamp timer exceeded 1,100 hours? The power
will no longer switch on once the timer has exceeded
1,100 hours.
* Has the connected input been selected?
* Is the cable of the input connector properly connected?
* If there is connection to a personal computer, is a
signal being output from the personal computer?
* Has a signal that is higher than the supported fre-
quency of the projector been input?
* Check that the image adjustment brightness and con-
trast are not set to minimum.
* Has the lamp burned out?
* Is the STATUS indicator flashing?
* Is the projector installed properly?
* Is the keystone adjustment properly adjusted?
* Is the lens properly focussed?
* Are the projection screen and the projector installed
at the proper distance?
* Has the projection distance exceeded the focussing
range?
* Is there condensation on the lens and other parts?
When the projector has been stored in a cold location
and the power is switched on in a warm location, there
may be condensation on the lens and other internal
optical parts. Should this occur, wait several minutes
until the condensation disappears.

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 insecti-
cides. 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, benz ene, 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. A v oid using the v acuum directly without attaching the adapter as w ell 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.
MENU
AUTO
QUICK
* Switch off the power, check that the
POWER indicator has changed to a
steadily lit amber, 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.
