The laser pointer on the remote control
emits a laser beam from the laser light
window shown in the figure to the left. The
laser emitted is a class II laser; therefore,
do not look into the laser window or shine
the laser beam on yourself or other people.
The three marks to the left are the caution
labels for the laser beam.
Always use the laser pointer at temperatures between 41°F and 104°F (+5°C and

Notes on Operation
About the Temperature Monitor Function:
• If the projector starts to overheat due to set-up problems or a dirty air filter, “TEMP.” will flash in
the upper-left corner of the picture. If the temperature continues to rise, then the lamp will turn
off, the TEMPERATURE WARNING indicator will flash, and after a 90-second cooling-off
period the power will shut off. Refer to page 32, “Maintenance Indicators,” when the “TEMP.”
warning appears in the picture.
About the Lamp Monitor Function:
• When the projector is turned on after the lamp has been in use for more than 1,400 hours, the
yellow “LAMP” display will flash on the screen for 60 seconds, as shown on the right. This is to
alert you that it is time to replace the lamp. At this point, take your projector to the nearest
Authorized Sharp Industrial LCD Products Dealer or Service Center to have the lamp replaced.
• If the lamp is used for more than 1,500 hours, the projector power will automatically turn off,
and the projector will be in STANDBY mode.
• Refer to page 32, “Maintenance Indicators,” when the “LAMP” display warning appears.
Caution: If “LAMP” begins to flash on the screen, be sure to take your projector to the nearest Authorized Sharp
Industrial LCD Products Dealer or Service Center to have the lamp replaced.

Cautions:
• The exhaust vent, the lamp cage cover and adjacent areas may be extremely hot during
projector operation. To prevent injury, do not touch these areas until they have sufficiently
cooled.
• Allow at least 4⬙ (10 cm) of space between the cooling fan (exhaust vent) and the other
nearest wall or obstruction.
• If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a protection device will automatically turn off the
projector lamp. This does not indicate a malfunction. Remove the projector plug from the
wall outlet and wait 10 minutes. Then turn on the power by plugging the cord back in. This
will return the projector to its normal mode.

Remote Control Input jack on the remote control to
the Wired Remote Input on the side of the projector.
Note:
• The signal transmitter does not function when the optional
cable is connected to the remote control.
The laser pointer on the remote control emits

Inserting the Batteries
Remove the battery cover as sho wn and insert four AA
size batteries making sure their polarities match the (+)
and (–) marks inside the battery compartment.
Notes:
Incorrect use of batteries may cause them to leak or burst.
• Insert the batteries with the (+) and (–) polarities as indicated.
• Remove the batteries if the remote control will not be operated
for an extended period of time.
• Maintain the batteries in a clean condition.
• Do not mix different brands of batteries. The life expectancy of
the new batteries will be shortened and the old batteries may
leak.
• When the batteries have been used up, remove them
immediately to prevent leakage and damage. Leaked battery
fluid may irritate the skin. Remove any battery fluid by wiping
with a cloth.
• Due to storage conditions and the shelf life of the supplied
batteries, they may run out after a short time. If so, replace
them with new batteries as soon as possible.

High edge of screen
When the projector is in the inverted position, use the
upper edge of the screen as the base line, and exchange the lower and upper lens shift values.
Note:
• Optimal image quality is produced with the projector positioned perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level. Tilting or angling the
projector will reduce the effectiveness of the lens shift function.

How to set up the projector and screen
Cautions: When setting up 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 and filter must be cleaned more often. Periodically the filter should be replaced and the projector should
be cleaned internally. As long as the projector is properly maintained in this manner, use in these environments
will not reduce the overall operation life. Please note that all internal cleaning must be performed by an Authorized Sharp Industrial LCD Products Dealer or Service Center.
• Do not expose to extreme heat or cold.
Operating temperature: 41°F to 104°F (+5°C to +40°C)
Storage temperature: ⳮ4°F to 140°F (ⳮ20°C to +60°C)
• Do not tilt the projector more than 5°.
■ Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly onto the screen washes out
colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when using the screen in a bright or sunny
room.
■ The best picture will be obtained when the projector is at a 90 degree angle to the screen. Position the projector
and screen as shown.
Example of a standard setup
TOP VIEW
Lens center
The projector lens should be centered
in the middle of the screen.
If the projector and screen are not
centered properly, the picture will be
distorted, making viewing difficult.
SIDE VIEW
Lens center
■Using the horizontal reverse function makes the following setups possible.
Example of a reversed image setup
• By placing a mirror (normal flat type) in front of the lens and using the horizontal reverse function, the image
reflected from the mirror can be projected onto the screen.
• Rear projection with a rear projection screen is also possible when using the horizontal reverse function.
