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 “Replacing the Lamp” on
page 54.
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 (8 degrees) of the adjustment foot.
■ 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.
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 52 and 53.) 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.
8
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.
■ If the power cord is unplugged while the
cooling fan is running, some parts of the
projector may still be hot. Use caution when
handling the projector.
■ 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
11.)
■ 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, “” and
“” 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 52 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.
• Even if you unplug the power cord after
projector operation, the cooling fan continues
to run for a while.

Maintenance
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.
Mild detergent

Power indicator
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 53.
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.

• Internal circuit
failure
• Clogged air intake
• The lamp is shut
down abnormally.
• Remaining lamp life
becomes 5% or
less.
• Burnt-out lamp
• Lamp circuit failure
• The dust filter
holder or lamp unit
cover is open.
Possible Solution
• Relocate the projector to
an area with proper
ventilation. (See page 8.)
•Take the projector to your
nearest Sharp Authorized
Projector Dealer or Service
Center (see page 68) for
repair.
• Disconnect the power cord
from the AC outlet, and
then connect it again.
• Carefully replace the lamp.
(See page 54.)
•Take the projector to your
nearest Sharp Authorized
Projector Dealer or Service
Center (see page 68) for
repair.
• Please exercise care when
replacing the lamp.
• Securely install the cover.
• If the power indicator blinks
in red even when the dust
filter holder and lamp unit
cover are securely
installed, contact your
nearest Sharp Authorized
Projector Dealer or Service
Center (see page 68) for
advice.
Info
• If the temperature warning indicator illuminates, and the projector enters standby mode, follow the
possible solutions above and then wait until the projector has cooled down completely before plugging in the power cord and turning the power back on. (At least 10 minutes.)
• If the power is turned off for a brief moment due to power outage or some other cause while using
the projector, and the power supply recovers immediately after that, the lamp indicator will illuminate in red and the lamp may not be lit. In this case, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet,
replace the power cord in the AC outlet and then turn the power on again.
• The cooling fan keeps the internal temperature of the projector constant and this function is controlled automatically. The sound of the cooling fan may change during operation because the fan
speed may change and this is not a malfunction.

Hg LAMP CONTAINS MERCURY For State Lamp Disposal
Information
www.lamprecycle.org or 1-800-BE-SHARP
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.
U.S.A. ONLY

■ 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.

The following is a list of modes that conform to VESA. However, this projector supports other
signals that are not VESA standards.
• 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
projector’s native resolution. (1024 × 768)

Troubleshooting
ProblemCheck
•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.
•
No picture and no sound
or projector does not
start.
Sound is heard but no
picture appears
(or picture is dark).
Color is faded or poor.
Picture is blurred;
noise appears.
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.
• Cables are incorrectly connected to the projector.

Picture appears but no
sound is heard.
An unusual sound is
occasionally heard from
the cabinet.

•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”.
• If the picture is normal, the sound is due to cabinet shrinkage caused
by room temperature changes. This will not affect operation or
performance.
