Ensure that you read 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 Authorised Projec-

tor Dealer or Service Centre for a replacement.

See “Replacing the Lamp” on page 56.

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 Authorised Projector Dealer or Service Centre.

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 colours, 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 12 degrees.

■Placement should be within ±12 degrees of horizontal.

Warning about placing the projector in a high position

■When placing the projector in a high position, ensure to secure it carefully to avoid personal injury caused by the projector falling down.

Do not subject the projector to hard impact and/or vibration.

■Take 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. Ensure to occasionally rest your eyes.

Avoid locations with extremes of temperature.

■The operating temperature of the projector is from +5°C to +35°C.

■The storage temperature of the projector is from –20°C to +60°C.

Do not block the exhaust and intake vents.

■Allow at least 20 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 54 and 55.). 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.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Caution regarding usage of the projector

■When using the projector, ensure 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, ensure to unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, and disconnect any other cables connected to it.

■Do not use the projector by holding the lens.

■When you are not to use the projector for a long time, or storing the projector, ensure to attach the lens cap to the projector (See page 9.).

■Do not expose the projector to direct sunlight or near heat sources. The projector may change colour 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, ensure to 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 54 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.

•Do not unplug the power cord during projection or cooling fan operation. This can cause damage due to rise in internal temperature, as the cooling fan also stops.

Setting Up the Projector

Setting Up the Projector

Position the projector perpendicular to the screen to achieve an optimal image.

Note

•The projector lens should be centred in the middle of the screen. If the horizontal line passing through the lens centre 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 colours, 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. (See page 17.)

Indication of the Projection Image Size and Projection Distance
