Observe the following safeguards when setting up your projector.
Caution concerning the lamp unit
Potential hazard of glass par­ticles if lamp ruptures. In case of lamp rupture, contact your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center for replacement. See “Regarding the Lamp” on page 55.
Caution concerning the setup of the projector
For minimal servicing and to maintain high image quality, SHARP recommends that this projector be installed in an area free from humidity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the projector is subjected to these environments, the vents and lens must be cleaned more of­ten. As long as the projector is regularly cleaned, use in these environments will not reduce the overall operation life of the unit. Internal cleaning should only be performed by a Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center.
Do not set up the projector in places exposed to direct sunlight or bright light.
Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly on the screen washes out the colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room.
Caution regarding placing of the projector
Place the projector on a level site within the adjustment range (9 degrees) of the adjust­ment foot.
When using the projector in high-altitude areas such as mountains (at altitudes of approximately 1,500 meters (4,900 feet) or more)
When you use the projector in high-altitude areas with thin air, set “Fan Mode” to “High”. Neglecting this can affect the longevity of the optical system.
Warning about placing the projector in a high position
When placing the projector in a high position, make certain it is carefully secure to avoid personal injury caused by the projector fall­ing down.
Do not subject the projector to hard impact and/or vibration.
Protect the lens so as not to hit or damage the surface of the lens.
Rest your eyes occasionally.
Continuously watching the screen for long hours will cause eye strain. Take regular breaks to rest your eyes.
Avoid locations with extremes of temperature.
The operating temperature of the projector is from 41°F to 95°F (+5°C to +35°C).
The storage temperature of the projector is from –4°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C).
Do not block the exhaust and intake vents.
Allow at least 11 13/16 inches (30 cm) of space between the exhaust vent and the nearest wall or obstruction.
Ensure that the intake vent and the exhaust vent are not obstructed.
If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro­tection circuit will automatically put the pro­jector into standby mode to prevent overheat damage. This does not indicate a malfunc­tion. (See pages 53 and 54.) Remove the pro- jector power cord from the wall outlet and wait at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked, plug the power cord back in and turn on the projector. This will return the projector to the normal operating condition.
After the projector is purchased, a faint smell from the vent may appear when the power is first turned on. This is normal and is not a malfunction. It will disappear after the projec­tor is used for a while.
Page 13

Introduction
Caution regarding usage of the projector
If you are not to use the projector for a long time or before moving the projector, make certain you unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, and disconnect any other cables connected to it.
Do not carry the projector by holding the lens.
When storing the projector, ensure you at-
tach the lens cap to the projector. (See page
12.)
Do not expose the projector to direct sunlight or place next to heat sources. Doing so may affect the cabinet color or cause deformation of the plastic cover.
Other connected equipment
When connecting a computer or other audio­visual equipment to the projector, make the connections AFTER unplugging the power cord of the projector from the AC outlet and turning off the equipment to be connected.
Please read the operation manuals of the pro­jector and the equipment to be connected for instructions on how to make the connections.
Using the projector in other countries
The power supply voltage and the shape of the plug may vary depending on the region or country you are using the projector in. When using the projector overseas, make sure you use an appropriate power cord for the country you are in.
Temperature monitor function
If the projector starts to overheat due to setup problems or blockage of the air vents, will illuminate in the lower left corner of the picture. If the temperature continues to rise, the lamp will turn off, the temperature warning indicator on the projector will blink, and after a 60-second cooling-off period the projector will enter standby mode. Refer to Maintenance Indicators on page 53 for details.
Info
The cooling fan regulates the internal tempera-
ture, and its performance is automatically con­trolled. The sound of the fan may change during projector operation due to changes in the fan speed. This does not indicate malfunction.

Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with alkaline or manganese batteries.
Insert the batteries making sure the polarities correctly match the m and n marks inside the battery compartment.
Batteries of different types have different properties, therefore do not mix batteries of different types.
Do not mix new and old batteries. This may shorten the life of new batteries or may cause old batteries to leak.
Remove the batteries from the remote control once they have run out, as leaving them in can cause them to leak. Battery fluid from leaked batteries is harmful to skin, therefore ensure you wipe them first and then remove them using a cloth.
The batteries included with this projector may run down in a short period, depending on how they are kept. Be sure to replace them as soon as possible with new batteries.
Remove the batteries from the remote control if you will not be using the remote control for a long time.
Comply with the rules (ordinance) of each local government when disposing of worn-out batteries.
Incorrect use of the batteries may cause them to leak or explode. Please follow the precautions below.
Caution
Usable Range
The remote control can be used to control the projector within the ranges shown in the illustration.
Note
• The signal from the remote control can be re­flected off a screen for easy operation. How­ever, the effective distance of the signal may differ depending on the screen material.
When using the remote control
Ensure that you do not drop it or expose it to moisture or high temperature.
The remote control may malfunction under a fluorescent lamp. In this case, move the pro­jector away from the fluorescent lamp.

About the Lamp Indicator
The lamp indicator illuminates to indicate the status of the lamp.
Green: The lamp is on. Blinking in green: The lamp is warming up. Red: The lamp is shut down abnormally
or the lamp should be replaced.
When switching on the projector, a slight flicker­ing of the image may be experienced within the first minute after the lamp has been illuminated. This is normal operation as the lamp’s control circuitry is stabilising the lamp output character­istics. It should not be regarded as faulty operation.
If the projector is put into standby mode and immediately turned on again, the lamp may take some time to start projection.
When System Lock is set, the keycode input box appears. To cancel the keycode setting, input the keycode that you have already set. See page 47 for details.

Cleaning the lens
Use a commercially available blower or lens cleaning paper (for glasses and camera lenses) for cleaning the lens. Do not use any liquid type cleaning agents, as they may wear off the coating film on the surface of the lens.
As the surface of the lens can easily get damaged, be careful not to scrape or hit the lens.
Cleaning the exhaust and intake vents
Use a vacuum cleaner to clean dust from the exhaust vent and the intake vent.
Cleaning the projector
Ensure that you have unplugged the power cord before cleaning the projector.
The cabinet as well as the operation panel is made of plastic. Avoid using benzene or thinner, as these can damage the finish on the cabinet.
Do not use volatile agents such as insecticides on the projector. Do not attach rubber or plastic items to the projector for long periods. The effects of some of the agents in the plastic may cause damage to the quality or finish of the projector.
Wipe off dirt gently with a soft flannel cloth.
When the dirt is hard to remove, soak a cloth in
a mild detergent diluted with water, wring the cloth well and then wipe the projector. Strong cleaning detergents may discolor, warp or damage the coating on the projector. Make sure to test on a small, inconspicuous area on the projector before use.
Maintenance
• If you want to clean the air vents during projec­tor operation, ensure you press STANDBY/ON on the projector or STANDBY on the remote control and put the projector into standby mode. After the cooling fan has stopped, clean the vents.

About the lamp indicator
When the remaining lamp life becomes 5% or less, (yellow) and “Change The Lamp” will be displayed on the screen. When the percentage becomes 0%, it will change to (red), the lamp will automatically turn off and then the projector will automatically enter standby mode. At this time, the lamp indicator will illuminate in red.
If you try to turn on the projector a fourth time without replacing the lamp, the projector will not turn on.
About the temperature warning indicator
If the temperature inside the projector increases, due to blockage of the air vents, or the setting location, “ ” will illuminate in the lower left corner of the picture. If the temperature keeps on rising, the lamp will turn off and the temperature warning indicator will blink, the cooling fan will run, and then the projec­tor will enter standby mode. After “ ” appears, ensure you perform the measures described on page 54.
The warning lights (power indicator, lamp indicator and temperature warning indicator) on the projector indicate problems inside the projector.
If a problem occurs, either the temperature warning indicator or the lamp indicator will illuminate red, and the projector will enter standby mode. After the projector has entered standby mode, follow the procedures given below.

Regarding the Lamp
Lamp
It is recommended that the lamp (sold separately) be replaced when the remaining lamp life becomes 5% or less, or when you notice a significant deterioration in the picture and color quality. The lamp life (percentage) can be checked with the on-screen display. (See page 48.)
Purchase a replacement lamp of type AN-F212LP from your place of purchase, nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center.
Caution Concerning the Lamp
This projector utilizes a pressurized mercury lamp. A loud sound may indicate lamp failure. Lamp failure can be attributed to numerous sources such as: excessive shock, improper cooling, surface scratches or deterioration of the lamp due to a lapse of usage time. The period of time up to failure largely varies depending on the individual lamp and/or the condition and the frequency of use. It is important to note that failure can often result in the bulb cracking.
When the lamp replacement indicator and on-screen display icon are illuminated, it is recommended that the lamp be replaced with a new one immediately, even if the lamp appears to be operating normally.
Should the lamp break, there is also a possibility that glass particles may spread inside of the projector. In such a case, it is recommended you contact your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center to assure safe operation.
Should the lamp break, the glass particles may spread inside the lamp cage or gas contained in the lamp may be vented into the room from the exhaust vent. Because the gas in this lamp includes mercury, ventilate the room well if the lamp breaks and avoid all exposure to the released gas. In case of exposure to the gas, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
Replacing the Lamp
Caution
• Do not remove the lamp unit from the projector right after use. The lamp will be very hot and may cause burns or injury.
•Wait at least one hour after the power cord is disconnected to allow the surface of the lamp unit to fully cool before removing the lamp unit.
Carefully change the lamp by following the instructions described in this section. * If you wish, you may have the lamp replaced at your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center.
* If the new lamp does not light after replacement, take your projector to the nearest Sharp Authorized
Projector Dealer or Service Center for repair.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO U.S. CUSTOMERS:
The lamp included with this projector is backed by a 90-day parts and labor limited warranty. All service of this projector under warranty, including lamp replacement, must be obtained through a Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center.

When this projector receives 640K350 VESA format VGA signals, “640 × 400” appears on the screen.
Optimum image quality will be achieved by matching your computer’s output resolution to the resolution
that corresponds to “True” in the “Display” column shown above.
When “Screen resolution” of the computer is different from the resolution displayed on the projected image, follow the procedures shown below. –Refer to “Select the resolution” for “Data image is not centered” on the Help menu and select the same
resolution as the resolution in “Screen resolution” of the computer.
–Depending on the computer you are using, the output signal may not be faithful to the “Screen resolution”
adjustment. Check the settings of the computer’s signal output. If the settings cannot be changed, it is recommended that the resolution be set to the one that corresponds to “True” in the “Display” column.

Troubleshooting
Problem Check
•Projector power cord is not plugged into the wall outlet.
• Power to the external connected devices is off.
• The selected input mode is wrong.
• Cables are incorrectly connected to the projector.
• Remote control battery has run out.
External output has not been set when connecting notebook computer.
• The lamp unit cover is not installed correctly.
If the connected DVI digital equipment is turned on before the “DVI-D” input mode is selected on the projector, the image may not be projected properly or may not be displayed at all. Ensure that the appropriate input mode has been selected on the projector before you turn on the connected equipment.
• Cables are incorrectly connected to the projector.
• “Bright” is set to minimum position.
• Depending on the computer you are using, an image may not be projected unless the signal output setting of the computer is switched to the external output. Refer to the computer’s operation manual for how to switch its signal output settings.
• Image adjustments are incorrectly set.
• Make adjustments of “Color” and “Tint” in “Picture Mode” and lower the “BrilliantColorTM” value.
(Video Input only)
•Video input system is incorrectly set.
• Adjust the focus.
• The projection distance exceeds the focus range.
There is fog on the lens. If the projector is carried from a cold room into a warm room, or if it is suddenly heated, condensation may form on the surface of the lens and the image will become blurred. Set up the projector at least one hour before it is to be used. If condensation should form, remove the power cord from the wall outlet and wait for it to clear.
(Computer Input only)
• Perform Synchronization Adjustments (“Clock” and “Phase” Adjustment)
• Noise may appear depending on the computer.
• Cables are incorrectly connected to the projector.
•Volume is set to minimum.
• When the projector is connected to an external device and the volume is set to minimum, the sound is not output even if you turn up the volume of the external device.
• “Speaker” is set to “Off”.
• Select “Data image is not centered” in the “Help” menu and make the necessary adjustments.
• Depending on the computer you are using, the output resolution signal may be different from the one you have set. For details, refer to the operation manual of the computer.

Check
• If the picture is normal, the sound is due to cabinet shrinkage caused by room temperature changes. This will not affect operation or performance.
• See “Maintenance Indicators”.
• The keylock is set. If the keylock is set to “ON”, all the buttons are locked.
• Change the input signal type setting.
• When you cannot select an input signal type, select “Color is faded or poor” in the “Help” menu, after selecting an item other than “sRGB” in “Picture Mode”, and then select an input signal type.
• Image adjustments are incorrectly set.
• When temperature inside the projector increases, the cooling fan runs faster.
• The lamp indicator is illuminating in red. Replace the lamp.
• Cables are incorrectly connected to the projector or the connected equipment works improperly.
• Select “Vertical stripes or flickering image appear” in the “Help” menu and make the necessary adjustments.
• If this happens frequently, replace the lamp.
• The lamp will eventually need to be changed. While the remaining lamp life draws to a close, replace the lamp.
• Operate the remote control while pointing it at the projector’s remote control sensor.
• The remote control may be too far away from the projector.
• If direct sunlight or a strong fluorescent lamp is shining on the projector’s remote control sensor, place the projector where it will not be affected by strong light.
• The batteries may be depleted or inserted incorrectly. Make sure the batteries are inserted correctly or insert new ones.
