SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE U.K.

The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 13A fuse. Should
the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked
above, which is also indicated on the pin face of the plug, must be used.
Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.
In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied, cut off the
mains plug and fit an appropriate type.

DANGER:

The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug destroyed immediately and disposed of
in a safe manner.
Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet, as a serious
electric shock may occur.
To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:

IMPORTANT:

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Blue: Neutral

Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not correspond with the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

• The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked N or coloured black.

• The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked L or coloured red.

Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth terminal in your three-pin plug.
Before replacing the plug cover make sure that:

• If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that removed from the cut-off plug.

• The cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead, and not simply over the lead wires.

IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS (cont.)

Be sure to read 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 a replacement.
See “Replacing the Lamp” on page 71.

CAUTION

PRECAUCI

CAUTION

PR

BQC-PGM20X//1

Cautions 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 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.

Tilt the projector so that it does not go over an
angle of 10 degrees when setting it.

■ The placement range (the
horizontal angle) should
be within ±10 degrees.

■ Be sure that the intake vent and the exhaust vent are
not obstructed.

■ If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a protection cir­cuit will automatically turn off the projector. This does
not indicate a malfunction. Remove the projector power
cord from the wall outlet and wait more than 10 min-

N

utes. 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.

Cautions regarding the transportation of the pro­jector

■ When transporting the projector, be sure not to subject
it to hard impact and/or vibration, as this can result in
damage. Take extra caution with the lens. Before mov­ing the projector, be sure to unplug the power cord from
the wall outlet, and disconnect any other cables con­nected to it.

Other connected equipment

■ When connecting a computer or other audio-visual
equipment to the projector, make the connections AF­TER turning off the projector and 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, be sure to use the appropriate power cord for
the country you are in.

Do not subject the projector to hard impact and/
or vibration.

■ Take care with 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
make your eyes tired. Be sure to occasionally rest your
eyes.

Avoid locations with high or low temperature.

■ The operating temperature for the projector is from 41°F
to 95°F (+5°C to +35°C)

■ The storage temperature for 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 11.8 inches (30 cm) of space between
the exhaust vent and the nearest wall or obstruction.

-8

Temperature monitor function

■ If the projector starts to overheat
due to setup problems or block­age of the air vents, “ ” and
“ ” will blink 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 90­second cooling-off period the power will shut off. Refer
to “Maintenance Indicators” on page 70 for details.

Info

• The cooling fan regulates the internal temperature, 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.

• Do not unplug the power cord during projection or cool­ing fan operation. This can create damage due to the
rise in internal temperature, as the cooling fan also
stops.

Using the Remote Control

Available Range of the Remote Control

■ The remote control can be used to control the projector

within the ranges shown in the illustration.

Introduction

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 due to the screen material.

When using the remote control:

• Be sure not to drop, expose to moisture or high temperature.

• The remote control may malfunction under a fluorescent lamp.

Under that circumstance, move the projector away from the fluo­rescent lamp.

Inserting the Batteries

The batteries (two R-03 batteries (“AAA” size,
UM/SUM-4, HP-16 or similar)) are included in
the package.

1 Slide the cover in the direction

of the arrow to open it.

Incorrect use of the batteries may cause them to leak or explode. Please follow the precautions below.

Caution

• Insert the batteries making sure the polarities correctly match the and marks inside the battery compart-
ment.

• 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 can cause them to leak.
Battery fluid from leaked batteries is harmful to your skin, therefore be sure to first wipe them and then remove
them using a cloth.

• The batteries included with this projector may be used up over 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.

Using the Adjustment Feet

The height of the projector can be adjusted
using the adjustment feet when the surface
of the projector is placed on is uneven or when
the screen is slanted.
The projection of the image can be made
higher by adjusting the projector when it is in
a location lower than the screen.

1 Press the foot releases.

2 Lift the projector to adjust its

height and remove your hands
from the foot releases.

3 Rotate the adjustment feet to

make minor changes.

Note

• When returning the projector to its origi­nal position, hold the projector firmly, press
the foot releases and then lower it.

• The projector is adjustable up to approxi­mately 5.5 degrees from the standard po­sition.

Info

• Do not press the foot releases when the
feet are extended without firmly holding
the projector.

• Do not hold the lens when lifting or lower­ing the projector.
When lowering the projector, be careful not

•

to get your fingers caught in the area be­tween the adjustment feet and the projector.

Setting up the Screen

Position the projector perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level to achieve an optimal image.

Note

• The projector lens should be centered in the middle of the screen. If the horizontal line passing through the
lens center is not perpendicular to the screen, the image will be distorted, making viewing difficult.

• For optimal image, 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.

• A polarizing screen cannot be used with this projector.

Standard Setup (Front Projection)

■ Place the projector at the required distance from the screen

according to the desired picture size. (See page 18.)

• The distance from the screen to the projec-

tor may vary depending on the size of the
screen. P.18

• The default setting can be used, when plac-

ing the projector in front of the screen. If the

Audi­ence

projected image is reversed or inverted, re­adjust the setting to “Front” in “PRJ Mode”.

• Place the projector so that the horizontal line

that passes through the center of the lens is
perpendicular to the screen.
