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.

and lower the cover until it clicks in place.
Incorrect use of the batteries may cause them to leak or explode. Please follow the precautions below.
Caution
• 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.

The power indicator blinks in red when the projector is on.
Cause
• Blocked air intake
• Cooling fan breakdown
• 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

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.
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.
(Computer Input only)
• Perform “Fine Sync” Adjustments (“Clock” Adjustment)
• Perform “Fine Sync” Adjustments (“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”.
• If the picture is normal, the sound is due to cabinet shrinkage caused by room temperature changes. This will not affect operation or performance.

• 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.
