the state of the WARNING Temp. indicator and the POWER indicator to take proper maintenance.

Warning Temp. Indicator

The pr oj ect or is shut d own and the WARNING
TEMP. indicator is blinking red.

When the temperature inside the projector reaches a
certain level, the projector is automatically shut down
to prote ct the i nside of the p rojector. The POWER
indicator is blinking while the projector is being cooled
down. When the projector has cooled down sufficiently
(to its normal operating temperature), it can be turned
on again by p re ssing the POWER ON/STAND -B Y
button.

✔ Note:

After the temperature inside the projector returns

to norma l, the WARN ING TEMP. indi cator still
continues to blink. When the projector is turned
on again, the WARNING TEMP. indicator stops
blinking.

Then check the matters below:

– Did you provide appropriate space for the projector

to be ventilated? Check the installing condition to
see if ventilation slots are not blocked.

– Is the projector not installed near the ventilation duct

of air-conditioning equipment which may be hot?
Install the projector away from the ventilation duct of
air-conditioning equipment.

– Are th e ai r f i l ters clea n ? C l e an th e ai r fi l ters

periodically. (p.53)

The pr oj ect or is shut d own and the WARNING
TEMP. indicator emits a red light.

When the projector detects an abnormal condition, it
is automatically shut down to protect the inside and
the WARNING TEMP. indicator becomes red. In this
case, disconnect the AC power cord and reconnect it,
and then turn the projector on once again for check. If
the projector cannot be turned on and the WARNING
TEMP. indicator emits a red light, disconnect the AC
power cord and contact the service station for check
and repair.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Turn off the projector, and disconnect 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 optical elements inside the projector. Should the air
filters become clogged with dust particles, it will reduce cooling fans' effectiveness and may result in
internal heat build up and adversely affect the life of the projector. Clean the air filters following the
steps below.

Clean th e a ir filt ers with a brush or rinse t he m
softly.

When cleaning the air filters by rinsing, 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 small parts into the air intake vents. It
may result in malfunction of the projector.

RECOMMENDATION

W e r e c om m en d a v o id i ng d u s t y/ s mo k y

Usage in these environments may cause a poor
image quality.

When using th e p rojector under dusty or smoky
conditions, dust may accumulate on a lens, LCD
panels, or optical elements inside the projector. This
condition may degrade the quality of a projected
ima ge. When the s ymptoms above ar e noticed,
contact your authorized dealer or service station for
proper cleaning.

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 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.

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. Additionally, check carefully to ensure
that there are no broken shards or pieces of glass around the projector or coming out from the cooling air
circulation holes. Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully. No one should check the inside of
the projector except those who are authorized trained technicians and who are familiar with projector service.
Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those who are not appropriately trained to do
so, may result in an accident or injury caused by pieces of broken glass.
