Ensure that you read the following safeguards when
setting up your projector.
Introduction
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
“Regarding the Lamp” on page 71.
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.
The projector may be safely tilted to a
maximum angle of 9 degrees.
■ Placement should be within 9 degrees of
horizontal.
If you have application requiring tilt angle
exceeding 9 degrees, please check with your
local Sharp sales office.
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 secured to
avoid personal injury caused by the projector falling down.
Do not subject the projector to hard impact and/or vibration.
■ Ta ke 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 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 104°F (+5°C to +40°C).
■ The storage temperature of the projector is
from –4°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C).
-9
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Do not block the intake and exhaust
vents.
■ Allow at least 11 13/16 inches (30 cm) of space
between the exhaust vent and the nearest
wall or obstruction.
■ Set up the projector where air will not stay
near its exhaust vent. In order to avoid allowing the heat from the exhaust vent to enter
the intake vent area, leave at least more than
11 13/16 inches (30 cm) of space between the
intake vent and the surrounding walls or objects.
■ 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 69 and 70.). 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.
Caution regarding usage of the projector
■
When using the projector, take care not to subject
it to hard impact and/or vibration, as this can result
in damage. Take extra care with the lens. If you are
not to use the projector for a long time, make certain you unplug the power cord from the wall outlet,
and disconnect any other cables connected to it.
■ Do not carry the projector by holding the lens.
■ When storing the projector, ensure you at-
tach the lens cap or dustproof cap to the projector. (See page 13.)
■ Do not expose the projector to direct sunlight
or near heat sources. The projector may
change color or become deformed.
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 90-second coolingoff period the projector will enter the standby
mode. Refer to “Maintenance Indicators” on
page 69 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. When you place
the projector into the storage case, make
sure that the cooling fan has stopped.
Optional lens installation
■ For installing an optional lens, refer to “Attaching the Optional Lens” on page 77 or the
lens installation manual (supplied with the
optional lens).
■ Remove the optional lens when carrying the
projector. Carrying the projector with an optional lens attached can cause the projector
to be damaged by vibration or other factors.

Setting Up the Projector
Setting Up the Projector
For optimal image quality, position the projector perpendicular to the screen with the projector’s feet flat
and level. Doing so will eliminate the need for Keystone correction and provide the best image quality.
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 an 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 projector in a sunny or bright room.
Standard Setup (Front Projection)
■ Place the projector at the required distance from the screen according to the desired picture size. (For
details, refer to “SETUP MANUAL” contained on the supplied CD-ROM.)
