8. Accessories

Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall, causing
serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage
to the product. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod,
bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer,
or sold with the product. Any mounting of the product
should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and
should use a mounting accessory recommended by
the manufacturer.

9. Transportation

A product and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick
stops, excessive force, and
uneven surfaces may cause the
product and cart combination to
overturn.

10. Ventilation

Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for
ventilation to ensure reliable operation of the product
and to protect it from overheating. The openings should
never be covered or blocked by placing the product
on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This prod­uct should not be placed in a built-in installation such
as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is
provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been
adhered to.

11. Power Sources

This product should be operated only from the type of
power source indicated on the marking label. If you
are not sure of the type of power supply to your home,
consult your product dealer or local power company.
For products intended to operate from battery power,
or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

12. Grounding or Polarization

This product is equipped with a three-wire grounding­type plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin. This
plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This
is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug
into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of
the grounding-type plug.

13. Power-Cord Protection

Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are
not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed
upon or against them, paying particular attention to
cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the product.

14. Lightning

For added protection for this product during a lightning
storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long
periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and
disconnect the power cord. This will prevent damage
to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.

15. Overloading

Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral
convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of
fire or electric shock.

16. Object and Liquid Entry

Never push objects of any kind into this product through
openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points
or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.

17. Servicing

Do not attempt to service this product yourself as
opening or removing covers may expose you to dan­gerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to
qualified service personnel.

instructions, as an improper adjustment of other

controls may result in damage and will often

require extensive work by a qualified technician

to restore the product to normal operation.
e. If the product has been dropped or damaged in

any way.
f. If the product exhibits a distinct change in

performance.

19. Replacement Parts

When replacement parts are required, be sure the
service technician has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer or have the same
characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other
hazards.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Be sure to read the following safeguards when setting up
your projector.

Caution concerning the lamp unit

■ There is a potential hazard of glass
particles if the lamp ruptures. In case
of lamp rupture, contact your near­est Authorized SharpVision Service
Center or Dealer for replacement.
See “Replacing the Lamp” on page

59.

CAUTION
PRECAUCIÓN
PRÉCAUTION

BQC-XVZ200++1

Cautions 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 lens and part of filter must be cleaned more often
than usual. 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 SharpVision Service Center or Dealer.

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.

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.

■ Watching the screen for long hours continuously will
make your eyes tired. Be sure to occasionally rest your
eyes.

Do not expose the projector to extreme heat or
cold.

■ Operating temperature:
41°F to 95°F (+5°C to 35°C)

■ Storage temperature:
–4°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C)

95˚F
(+35˚C)

41˚F
(+5˚C)

■ 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
power cord from the wall outlet and wait at least 10
minutes. Then turn on the power by plugging the power
cord back in. This will return the projector to the normal
operating condition.

Cautions regarding the transportation of the pro­jector

■ When transporting the projector, be sure not to subject
it to hard impact and/or vibration, as this can result in
damage. Take extra caution with the lens. Before mov­ing the projector, be sure to unplug the power cord from
the wall outlet, and disconnect any other cables con­nected to it.

Other connected equipment

■ When connecting other audio-visual equipment or a
computer to the projector, make the connections AF­TER turning off the projector and 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.

Temperature monitor function

■ If the projector starts to overheat
due to setup problems or block­age of the air vents, “ ” and
“ ” will blink 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 cooling-off period the projector
will enter the standby mode. Refer to “Maintenance In­dicators” on page 58 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.

Notes on Operation

■ The exhaust ventilative holes,
the lamp unit cover and adja­cent areas may get extremely
hot during projector operation.
To prevent injury, do not touch
these areas until they have suf­ficiently cooled down.

■ Allow at least 1 foot (30 cm) of space between the ex­haust ventilative hole and the nearest wall or obstruc­tion.

Remote control

Incorrect use of the batteries may cause them to leak or explode. Please follow the precautions below.

Caution

• Insert the batteries making sure the polarities correctly match the and marks inside the battery compart-
ment.

• Batteries of different types have different properties, therefore do not mix batteries of different types.

• Do not mix new and old batteries.

This may shorten the life of new batteries or may cause old batteries to leak.

• Remove the batteries from the remote control once they have run out, as leaving them can cause them to leak.
Battery fluid from leaked batteries is harmful to your skin, therefore be sure to first wipe them and then remove
them using a cloth.

• The batteries included with this projector may exhaust over a short period, depending on how they are kept.

Be sure to replace them as soon as possible with new batteries when they have run out.

• Remove the batteries from the remote control if you will not be using the remote control for a long time.
