IMPORTANT SERVICE SAFETY NOTES (for USA)
Ë Service work should be performed only by qualified service technicians who are
thoroughly familiar with all safety checks and servicing guidelines as follows:
WARNING
1. For continued safety, no modification of any circuit
should be attempted.
2. Disconnect AC power before servicing.
BEFORE RETURNING THE PROJECTOR:
(Fire & Shock Hazard)
Before returning the projector to the user, perform
the following safety checks:
1. Inspect lead wires are not pinched between the
chassis and other metal parts of the projector.
2. Inspect all protective devices such as non-metallic
control knobs, insulating materials, cabinet backs,
adjustment and compartment covers or shields,
isolation resistor-capacity networks, mechanical
insulators, etc.
3. To be sure that no shock hazard exists, check for
current leakage in the following manner:
» Plug the AC cord directly into a 120-volt AC outlet,
(Do not use an isolation transformer for this test).
» Using two clip leads, connect a 1.5k ohm, 10 watt
resistor paralleled by a 0.15µF capacitor in parallel
between all exposed metal cabinet parts and earth
ground.
» Use an AC voltmeter with sensitivity of 5000 ohm
per volt., or higher, sensitivity to measure the AC
voltage drop across the resistor (See Diagram).
» All checks must be repeated with the AC plug
connection reversed. (If necessary , a non-polarized
adapter plug must be used only for the purpose of
completing these checks.)
Any reading of 0.3 volts RMS (this corresponds to
0.2 milliamp. AC.) or more is excessive and indicates
a potential shock hazard which must be corrected
before returning the unit to the owner.
Many electrical and mechanical parts in Projector have
special safety-related characteristics.
These characteristics are often not evident from visual
inspection, nor can protection afforded by them be
necessarily increased by using replacement
components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc.
Replacement parts which have these special safety
characteristics are identified in this manual; electrical
components having such features are identified by “å”
and shaded areas in the Replacement Parts Lists and
Schematic Diagrams. For continued protection,
replacement parts must be identical to those used in
the original circuit. The use of a substitute replacement
parts which do not have the same safety characteristics
as the factory recommended replacement parts shown
in this service manual, may create shock, fire or other
hazards.
conductive side exposed. Be very careful in
handling this component when the power is on.

Precautions for using lead-free solder
1 Employing lead-free solder
"Input, Output, R/C Receiver, Fan PWB, AC INLET UNIT, POWER UNIT, BALLAST UNIT and Key PWB" of this
model employs lead-free solder. The LF symbol indicates lead-free solder, and is attached on the PWBs and service
manuals. The alphabetical character following LF shows the type of lead-free solder.
Example:
LFa
Indicates lead-free solder of tin, silver and copper.
2 Using lead-free wire solder
When fixing the PWB soldered with the lead-free solder, apply lead-free wire solder. Repairing with conventional
lead wire solder may cause damage or accident due to cracks.
As the melting point of lead-free solder (Sn-Ag-Cu) is higher than the lead wire solder by 40°C, we recommend you
to use a dedicated soldering bit, if you are not familiar with how to obtain lead-free wire solder or soldening bit,
contact our service station or service ranch in your area.
3 Soldering
As the melting point of lead-free solder (Sn-Ag-Cu) is about 220°C which is higher than the conventional lead solder
by 40°C, and as it has poor solder wettabillty, you may be apt to keep the soldering bit in contact with the PWB for
extended period of time. However, Since the land may be peeled of f or the maximum heat-resistance temperature of
parts may be excoeded, remove the bit from the PWB as soon as you conurm the steady soldering condition.
Lead-free solder contains more tin, and the end of the soldering bit may be easily corroded. Make sure to tum on and
off the power of the bit as required.
if a different type of solder stays on the tip of the soldering bit, it is alloyed with lead-free solder. Clean the bit after
every use of it.
When the tip of the soldering bit is blackened during use, file it with steel wool or fine sandpaper.
Becareful when replacing parts with polarity indication on the PWB silk.

Cautions on 3D irregular color correction adjustment
The following measurement and adjustment must be carried out:
• In a dark room (take care for stray light)
• Using diffuse reflection type (mat type) screen in the uniform conditions.
Settings of the projector must be carried out in the following conditions:
• Do not save power (to keep the lamp to the stable condition during measurement)
• Automatic search cancel (to fix INPUT1)
• INPUT1 RGB mode (cancel the component mode of INPUT 1, just in case)
