properly.
This projector provides many convenient
features and functions. Operating the
projector properly enables you to manage
those features and maintains it in better
condition for a considerable time.
Improper operation may result in not only
shortening the product-life, but also
malfunctions, fire hazard, or other accidents.
If your projector seems to operate improperly,
read this manual again, check operations
and cable connections and try the solutions
in the "Troubleshooting" section in the end
of this booklet. If the problem still persists,
contact the dealer where you purchased the
projector or the service center.
Safety Precaution
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE
OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE
THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
- This projector produces intense light
from the projection lens. Do not stare
directly into the lens, otherwise, eye
damage could result. Be especially
careful that children do not stare directly
into the beam.
- Install the projector in a proper position.
If not, it may result in a fire hazard.
- Provide appropriate space on the top,
sides and rear of the projector cabinet
for allowing air circulation and cooling
the projector. Minimum clearance must
be maintained. If the projector is to be
built into a compartment or similarly
enclosed, the minimum distances must
be maintained. Do not cover the
ventilation slot on the projector. Heat
build-up can reduce the service life of
your projector, and can also be
dangerous.

AC Power Cord Requirement
The AC Power Cord supplied with this projector meets the requirement for use in the country you purchased it.
AC Power Cord for the United States and Canada:
AC Power Cord used in the United States and Canada is listed by the
Underwriters Laboratories (UL) and certified by the Canadian Standard
Association (CSA).AC Power Cord has a grounding-type AC line plug.
This is a safety feature to be sure that the plug will fit into the power
outlet. Do not try to defeat this safety feature. Should you be unable to
insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician.
AC Power Cord for the United Kingdom:
This cord is already fitted with a moulded plug
incorporating a fuse, the value of which is
indicated on the pin face of the plug. Should
the fuse need to be replaced, an ASTA approved
BS 1362 fuse must be used of the same rating,
marked thus
never use the plug with the cover omitted. If a
replacement fuse cover is required, ensure it is
of the same colour as that visible on the pin
face of the plug (i.e. red or orange). Fuse covers
are available from the Parts Department
indicated in your User Instructions.
If the plug supplied is not suitable for your socket
outlet, it should be cut off and destroyed.
The end of the flexible cord should be suitably
prepared and the correct plug fitted.
WARNING : A PLUG WITH BARED FLEXIBLE
CORD IS HAZARDOUS IF ENGAGED IN A LIVE
SOCKET OUTLET.

Maintenance
The projector needs proper maintenance. You should keep the lens clean as dust, dirt or
spots will project on the screen and diminish image quality. If any other parts need
replacing, contact your dealer or qualified service personnel. When cleaning any part of
the projector, always switch off and unplug the projector first.
Warning:
Never open any of the covers on the projector. Dangerous electrical voltages inside the
projector can cause severe injury. Do not attempt to service this product yourself. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel.
Cleaning the Lens
Gently wipe the lens with lens cleaning paper. Do not touch the lens with your hands.
Cleaning the Projector Housing
Gently wipe with a soft cloth. If dirt and stains are not easily removed, use a soft cloth
damped with water, or water and neutral detergent, and wipe dry with a soft, dry cloth.
EN-31
Cleaning the Air Filter
The air filter, which is located at the bottom of the projector, should be cleaned after
every 100 hours of use. If it is not cleaned periodically, it can become clogged with dust
and prevent the projector from being ventilated properly. This can cause over heating
and damage the projector.
When the projector reached a specified time, the filter warning message “Please clean up
filter” appears on the screen, notifying the cleaning is necessary.
To clean the air filter:
1. Switch the projector off and unplug the AC power
cord from the wall socket.
2. Place a protective sheet (cloth) beneath the
projector. Turn the projector over so you can
see its underside.
Be sure that the projector is stable after
turning it over.
3. Remove the air filter by pushing the filter tab.
4. Clean the air filter.
To clean the filter, you are advised to use a
small vacuum cleaner designed for computers
and other office equipment.
If the dirt is difficult to remove or if the filter is
torn, replace it. Consult your dealer for details.
Replacement Filter Part No. : 610 337 9623
5. Replace the filter.
6. Plug the power back into the projector.
7. Be sure to reset the filter counter after cleaning or replacing the filter. See “Filter
Counter Reset” on page 30.
EN-32
Turn off the projector and remove the AC power cord from the power outlet before
beginning maintenance work.
Make sure the lens is cool before cleaning.
Do not use detergents or chemicals other than those noted above. Do not use
benzene or thinners.
Do not use chemical sprays.
Use a soft cloth or lens paper only.
Be sure to reset the filter counter only after cleaning or replacing the air filter.
The filter warning message also appears at turning on.
The filter warning message will not turn off until the filter counter is reset.
Do not operate the projector with the filter removed. Dust may accumulate on the
optical elements degrading picture quality.
Replacing the Lamp
Projector lamps have a finite life. Replace the lamp when:
A warning message “Lamp is approaching the end of its useful life in full power
operation. Replacement suggested!” appears on the screen.
The image becomes darker and hues become weaker after a lamp has been for a long
period of time.
Refer to section titled “LED Indicator Messages” for further details.
The lamp becomes high temperature after turning off the projector with the ON/
STAND-BY button. If you touch the lamp, you may scald your finger. When you
replace the lamp, wait for at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool down.
Do not touch the lamp glass at any time. The lamp may explode due to improper
handling, including the touching of the lamp glass.
Lamp lifetime may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of
use. There is no guarantee of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail
or terminate their lifetime in a shorter period of time than other similar lamps.
A lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of
hours of use as its lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ
according to the environment or conditions in which the projector and lamp are
being used.
Wear protective gloves and eyeglasses when fixing or detaching the lamp.
Faster on-off-cycles will damage the lamp and reduce lamp life. Wait at least for
7 minutes to turn off the projector after powering on.
Do not operate the lamp in proximity to paper, cloth, or other combustible material
nor cover it with such materials. Otherwise it could cause a fire.
Do not operate the lamp in an atmosphere containing an inflammable substance,
such as thinner. Otherwise it could cause a fire or explosion.
Thoroughly ventilate the area or the room when operating the lamp in an oxygen
atmosphere (in the air). If ozone is inhaled, it could cause headaches, nausea,
dizziness, etc.
The inorganic mercury is involved in the lamp. If the lamp bursts, the mercury
inside the lamp will go out of the projector. Leave the area immediately if the lamp
shatters while being operated and ventilate the area for at least 30 minutes in
order to avoid the inhalation of mercury fumes. Otherwise it could be harmful to
user’s health.
EN-33
