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 “Regarding the Lamp” on page
50.
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 diffi cult. 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 (9 degrees) of the adjustment foot.
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 1113/16 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 page 48.) Remove the projector
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.
■ After the projector is purchased, a faint smell from the
vent may appear when the power is fi rst 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 4,900 feet (1,500 meters) 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.
-6
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.
■ Do not carry the projector by holding the lens.
■ When storing the projector, ensure that you close the
lens shutter.
■ 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 audio-visual
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 temperature inside the projector increases, due
to blockage of the air vents, or the setting location,
the temperature warning indicator will blink. And if the
temperature keeps on rising, “” will illuminate in
the lower left corner of the picture with the temperature
warning indicator blinking. If this state continues, the
lamp will turn off, the cooling fan will run and then the
projector will enter standby mode. Refer to “Maintenance
Indicators” on pages 48 and 49 for details.
Introduction

Connecting to Video Equipment
Before connecting, be sure to unplug the power cord of the projector from the AC outlet and turn off the devices
to be connected. After making all connections, turn on the projector and then the other devices.
Connecting Equipment with HDMI Output Terminal to the HDMI Terminal on the Projector
HDMI is a new specialized interface capable of delivering a video and audio signal to the terminal using just one cable.
Since this projector does not support an audio signal by itself, use an amplifi er or other audio device.
For video connection, use a cable that conforms to HDMI standards. Using cables that do not conform to HDMI
standards may result in a malfunction.

Note
• HDMI (High-Defi nition Multimedia Interface) is a digital AV interface that can deliver a high-defi nition video
signal, multi-channel audio signal, and bi-directional control signal all in just one cable.
• Because it is compatible with the HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) system, the digital
video signal does not degrade when transmitted, and a high-quality image with a simple connection can
be enjoyed.

•
fl ickering of the image may be experienced
within the fi rst minute after the lamp has
been illuminated. This is normal operation as
the lamp's control circuitry is stabilising the
lamp output characteristics. It should not be
regarded as faulty operation.
If the projector is put into standby mode and
•
immediately turned on again, the lamp may
take some time to start projection.

Keystone Correction
This function can correct distortion of an image
projected toward a spherical or cylindrical screen
as well as trapezoidal distortion of an image on a
fl at screen and rotate the image at your arbitrary
angle.
■ Keystone
When the image is projected either from the top or
from the bottom towards the screen at an angle, the
image becomes distorted trapezoidally. The
function for correcting trapezoidal distortion is
called Keystone Correction.
Note
The Keystone Correction can be adjusted up
•
to an angle of approximately ±12 degrees
with “Auto V-Keystone” and up to an angle
of approximately ±40 degrees with “V-Keystone” and approximately ±30 degrees with

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 fi nish 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 fi nish of the
projector.
■ Wipe off dirt gently with a soft fl annel 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
Cleaning the lens
■ Use a commercially available blower or lens
cleaning paper (for glasses and camera lenses)
for cleaning the lens. Do not use any liquid type
cleaning agents, as they may wear off the coating
fi lm on the surface of the lens.
■ As the surface of the lens can easily get damaged,
be careful not to scrape or hit the lens.
Cleaning the exhaust and intake vents
■ Use a vacuum cleaner to clean dust from the
exhaust vent and the intake vent.

About the temperature warning indicator
If the temperature inside the projector increases, due to blockage of the air vents, or the setting
location, the temperature warning indicator will blink. And if the temperature keeps on rising,
“
” will illuminate in the lower left corner of the picture with the temperature warning indicator blinking.
If this state continues, the lamp will turn off, the cooling fan will run and then the projector will enter
standby mode. When you fi nd the temperature warning indicator blinking, be sure to perform the measures
described on page 49.
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
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.

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
