What is PIN code?

PIN (Personal Identification Number) code is a security code that allows the person who knows it to operate the projector. Setting the PIN code prevents unauthorized use of the projector.

A PIN code consists of a four-digit number. Refer to PIN code lock function in the Setting Menu on pages 47–48 for locking operation of the projector with your PIN code.

✔Notes:

•When the Logo select function is "Off,” the logo will not be displayed on the screen (p.43).

•When the "Countdown off" or "Off" is selected in the Display function, the countdown will not be shown on the screen (p.42).

•During the countdown period, all operations are invalid.

•If the correct PIN code number is not entered for 3 minutes after the PIN code dialog box appeared, the projector will be turned off automatically.

CAUTION ON HANDLING THE PIN CODE

If you forget your PIN code, the projector can no longer be started. Take special care in setting a new PIN code; write down the number and keep it at hand. Should the PIN code be missing or forgotten, consult your dealer or service center.

TO MAINTAIN THE LAMP LIFE, ONCE YOU TURN THE PROJECTOR ON, WAIT AT LEAST 5 MINUTES BEFORE TURNING IT OFF.

When the projector has cooled down enough to be turned on again, the POWER indicator stops blinking.

“Power off” disappears after 4 seconds.

✔Notes:

•When the On start function is “On,” this projector is turned on automatically by connecting the AC power cord to an AC outlet (p.

46).

•Do not operate the projector continuously without rest. Continuous use may result in shortening the lamp life. Turn off the projector and let stand for about an hour in every 24 hours.

•The running speed of cooling fans is changed according to the temperature inside the projector.

•Do not put the projector in a case before the projector is cooled enough.

•If the WARNING indicator blinks or emits a red light, see “Warning Indicator” on page 53.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Turn off the projector, and unplug the AC power cord from the AC outlet.

Turn over the projector and remove the air filters by pulling the latches upward.

Air filters prevent dust from accumulating on the surface of the optical elements inside the projector. Should the air filters become clogged with dust particles, they will reduce cooling fans’ effectiveness and may result in a buildup of internal heat and adversely affect the life of the projector. Clean the air filters by following the steps below.

Clean the air filters with a brush or rinse them softly. When rinsing the air filters, dry them well.

Replace the air filters properly. Make sure that the air filters are fully inserted.

CAUTION

Do not operate the projector with the air filters removed. Dust may accumulate on the optical elements degrading picture quality. Do not put anything into the air intake vents. Otherwise it may result in malfunction of the projector.

RECOMMENDATION

We recommend avoiding dusty/smoky environments when you operate the projector. Usage in these environments may cause poor image quality.

When using the projector under dusty or smoky conditions, dust may accumulate on the lens, LCD panels, or optical elements inside the projector degrading the quality of a projected image. When the symptoms above are noticed, contact your authorized dealer or service station for proper cleaning.

✔Note:

•When reinserting the air filters, be sure that the slit part is facing the outer side.

This projector uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly. Improper handling may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.

● Lamp life may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no

guarantee of the same life for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period of time than other similar lamps.

● If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if the LAMP REPLACE indicator lights

up, replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the projector has cooled down. (Follow carefully the instructions in the Lamp Replacement section of this manual.) Continuous use of the lamp with the LAMP REPLACE indicator lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.

● A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock, or degradation as a result of hours of use, as it

comes to the end of life. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or conditions in which the projector and lamp are being used.

IF A LAMP EXPLODES, THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN.

If a lamp explodes, disconnect the projector’s AC plug from the AC outlet immediately. Contact an authorized service station for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp.
