Precautions
On safety
•Check that the operating voltage of your unit is identical with the voltage of your local power supply. If voltage adaptation is required, consult with qualified Sony personnel.
•Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it further.
•Unplug the unit from the wall outlet or set the MAIN POWER switch to OFF if it is not to be used for several days.
•To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
•The wall outlet should be near the unit and easily accessible.
•The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.
On installation
•When the projector is mounted on the ceiling, the Sony PSS-70 Projector Suspension Support must be used for installation. Read the installation manual of the PSS-70 carefully, since the ceiling should be reinforced for safety.
•Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build-up. Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation holes. Leave space of more than 30 cm (12 inches) between the wall and the projector. Be aware that room heat rises to the ceiling; check that the temperature near the installation location is not excessive.
•Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or humidity, mechanical vibration or shock.
•To avoid moisture condensation, do not install the unit in a location where the temperature may rise rapidly.
•Fans are installed inside the projector to prevent internal heat build-up. The fans produce a humming noise when the power is switched on, which is normal. Should the noise sound abnormal, please consult qualified Sony personnel.
On illumination
•To obtain the best picture, the front of the screen should not be exposed to direct lighting or sunlight.
•Ceiling-mounted spot lighting is recommended. Use a cover over fluorescent lamps to avoid lowering the contrast ratio.
•Cover any windows that face the screen with opaque draperies.
•It is desirable to install the projector in a room where floor and walls are not of light-reflecting material. If the floor and walls are of reflecting material, it is recommended that the carpet and wall paper be changed to a dark color.

On operation
On cleaning
CRT burns
On repacking
To turn on the projector after the projector has been turned off due to a brief loss of power, press the POWER ON key on the remote control, or turn off the MAIN POWER switch so that the STANDBY indicator turns off and then turn on the MAIN POWER switch.
•To keep the cabinet looking new, periodically clean it with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with a mild detergent solution. Never use strong solvents, such as thinner, benzene, or abrasive cleansers, since these will damage the cabinet.
•Avoid touching the lens. To remove dust on the lens, use a soft dry cloth. Do not use a damp cloth, detergent solution, or thinner.
When a static picture of a VCR or a computer is displayed for more than about an hour, a CRT burn may result. This means that an after-image impression of the static picture remains on the screen even after the picture has changed. If it is necessary to display the same static picture for more than an hour, we recommend that you set the CONTR (contrast) control to the lowest setting.
Also, when a picture of different size is displayed beyond a certain length of time, an after-image impression of the frame of the smaller picture may be burnt on the screen (such as displaying a 16:9 wide size picture on a 4:3 screen). To avoid this, we recommend that you use the same picture size when possible. However, if it is necessary to use a different picture size, set the CONTR (contrast) control and the BRT (brightness) control of the smaller picture to the lowest setting possible. This will minimize the risk of creating an after-image impression.
If the CRT burns, it must be replaced. In this case, refer to the warranty provided with this unit. Consult your Sony dealer or Qualified Service Personnel.
Save the original shipping carton and packing material; they will come in handy if you ever have to ship your unit. For maximum protection, repack your unit as it was originally packed at the factory.

Features
Multiscan projector
This projector accepts and automatically detects horizontal scanning frequencies between 15 kHz and 110 kHz and vertical scanning frequencies between 38 Hz and 150 Hz.
In addition to high-resolution pictures from computers, you can also project pictures from teletext decoders, VCRs and video cameras.
High resolution and brightness
A newly developed 8-inch electromagnetic focus CRT, a hybrid Sony HACC (High-resolution Aspherical and Color Corrected) lens and a widerange cathode/G1 dual-drive video output circuit are incorporated in the projector to provide a sharp and bright high-quality picture with the high resolution of 1700 × 1200 pixels and the high light output of 240 lumen.
High contrast
The adoption of the optical coupling technologies, double-focus lens system and an anti-reflection coating gives a fine-detail and sharp picture with improved contrast in corners and screen center.
Easy operation—remote control, on-screen display
Adjustments such as input selection, picture control and centering adjustment can be remotely controlled from both the front and rear of the projector with the supplied remote control. You can also use the control as a wired remote control by connecting it to the projector with the supplied remote control cable.
Compatible with various color systems
NTSC, PAL, SECAM, NTSC4.431) or PAL-M color system can be selected automatically or manually.
Flexible setup
You can project a 60to 300-inch picture (120-inch standard) with this projector. The projector can be set up on the floor or ceiling, for front or rear projection to suit the installation location, surrounding illumination, usage, etc.
Illuminated control panel/remote control keys
The key names on the remote control and the control panel of the projector can be illuminated for easy access in a dark place by pressing the LIGHT button.
..........................................................................................................................................................................................................
