Safety Instructions
Openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To
ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it
from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or
covered.
CAUTION
Hot air is exhausted from the exhaust vent. When using or
installing the projector, the following precautions should be
taken.
– Do not put any flammable object or spray can near the
projector, hot air is exhausted from the air vents.

cabinet will not only get damaged but also may cause
fire hazard by heat.
Cooling fans are provided to cool down the projector.
The fans’ running speed is changed according to the
temperature inside the projector.
Air Circulation
IMPORTANT!
Filter Maintenance!!
The projector uses a lamp which generates significant
heat. The cooling fans and air vents are provided to
dissipate the heat by drawing air into the housing and the
filter is located in the intake vents to prevent dust from
getting inside of the projector.
In order to care for the projector appropriately, regular
cleaning is required. Remove any dirt or dust that has
accumulated on the projector.
If the projector reaches a time set in the timer setting, a
Filter warning icon (Fig. 1) appears on the screen and
WARNING FILTER indicator on the top panel lights up (see
below), indicating that the filter replacement is necessary.
Blocking the air vents and leaving the projector uncleaned
for a long time may not only damage the projector and may
require costly repairs but may also cause accidents or fire.
For maintenance of the filter, refer to “Filter counter” on
page 62 and “Maintenance and Care” on pages 63-65.

Installation
Connecting the AC Power Cord
This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100–240 V AC and
it automatically selects the correct input voltage. It is designed to
work with single-phase power systems having a grounded neutral
conductor. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not plug into
any other type of power system.
If you are not sure of the type of power being supplied, consult
your authorized dealer or service center.
Connect the projector with all peripheral equipment before turning
on the projector.
CAUTION
The AC outlet must be near this equipment and must be easily
accessible.
PNote:
Unplug the AC power cord when the projector is not in use. When
the projector is connected to an outlet with AC power cord, it is in
stand-by mode and consumes a little electric power.
Connect the AC power cord (supplied) to the
projector.
NOTE ON THE POWER CORD
AC power cord must meet the requirements of the country where you use the projector.
Confirm the AC plug type with the chart below and proper AC power cord must be used.
If the supplied AC power cord does not match your AC outlet, contact your sales dealer.

After the countdown, the input source that was selected the last
4
time and the Lamp control status icon (see page 55) appear on
the screen.
If the projector is locked with a PIN code, PIN code input dialog
box will appear.
PNote:
• When the Logo select function is set to Off, the logo will not be
shown on the screen (p.52).
• When Countdown off or Off is selected in the Display function,
the countdown will not be shown on the screen (p.52).

will be searched automatically (p.51).
• If you press the ON/STAND-BY button on the top control or
the remote control during the countdown period, you can skip
the countdown and go to the normal operations. In this case,
however, the brightness of the image needs some time to
stabilize after turning on the projector. The display may flicker
after turning on the lamp for the characteristics of the lamp. This
is normal operation and not a malfunction.

Basic Operation
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 a
PIN code prevents unauthorized use of the projector.
A PIN code consists of a four-digit number. Refer to the PIN code
lock function in the Setting Menu on page 59-60 for locking operation
of the projector with your PIN code.
CAUTION ON HANDLING PIN CODE
If you forget your PIN code, the projector can no longer
be started. Take a special care in setting a new PIN
code; write down the number in a column on page 84 of
this manual and keep it on hand. Should the PIN code
be missing or forgotten, consult your dealer or service
center.
Turning Off the Projector
Press the ON/STAND-BY button on the side control or the

during this cooling down period.
When the projector has cooled down enough, the POWER
3
indicator lights green and then you can turn on the projector.
To unplug the AC power cord, wait until the projector is
completely cooled down.
TO MAINTAIN THE LIFE OF THE LAMP, ONCE YOU
TURN THE PROJECTOR ON, WAIT AT LEAST FIVE
MINUTES BEFORE TURNING IT OFF.
DO NOT UNPLUG THE AC POWER CORD WHILE
COOLING FANS ARE RUNNING OR BEFORE THE
POWER INDICATOR LIGHTS GREEN AGAIN.
OTHERWISE IT WILL RESULT IN SHORTENING OF
THE LAMP LIFE.
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.
Power off? disappears after 4 seconds.
PNote:
• When the On start function is set to On, the projector
will be turned on automatically by connecting the AC
power cord to an AC outlet (p.58).
• 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 TEMP. indicator blinks red, see
“Warning Indicators” on page 69.
• The projector cannot be turned on during the cooling
period with the POWER indicator turned off. You can
turn it on again after the POWER indicator becomes
green again.
