Precautions

Overview
Precautions
On safety
• Check that the operating voltage of your unit is identical with the voltage of your local power supply.
• Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it checked by qualifie d personnel before operating it further.
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be used for several days.
• To disconnect the cord, pu ll 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 to the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.
• Do not look into the lens while the lamp is on.
• Do not place your hand or objects near the ventilation holes. The air coming out is hot.
• Be careful not to catch your fingers by the adjuster when you lift up the projector. Do not push hard on the to p of the projector with the adjuster out.
On illumination
• To obtain the best picture, the front of the screen should not b e 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 preventing internal heat build­up
After you turn off the power with the
I
/
1 key, do not disconnect the unit from the wall outlet while the cooling fan is still running.
Caution
The projector is equipped with ventilation holes (intake) on the bottom side and ventilation holes (exhaust) on left and rear. Do not block or place anythi ng near these holes, or internal heat build-up may occur, causing picture degradation or damage to the projector.
On cleaning
• 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 th e lens. To remove dust
on the lens, use a soft dry cloth. Do not use a damp cloth, detergent solution, or thinner.
• Clean the filter at regular intervals.
On repacking
• Save the origin al shipping carton and
packing material; they will c ome in han dy if you ever have to ship your unit. For maximum protection, repa c k yo ur unit as it was originally packed at the factory.

Notes on batteries
• Make sure that the battery orientation is correct when inserting batteries.
• Do not mix an old battery wit h a new one or different types of batteries.
• If you do not use the Remote Commander for a long time, remove the batteries to avoid damage from battery leakage. If batteries have leaked, remove them, wipe and dry the battery compartm ent, and replace the batteries with new ones.
Notes on Remote Commander operation
• Make sure that nothing obstructs the infrared beam between the Remote Commander and the remote control detector on the projector. Direct the Remote Commander toward the front or rear remote cont rol de te c t or.
The operation range is limited. The sho rter the distance between the Remote Commander and the projector is, the wider the angle within which the commander can control the projector becomes.

Ove rview
This projector has 37 types of preset data for input signals for INPUT-A (the preset memory). When a preset signal is input, the projector automatically detects the signal type and recalls the data for the signal from the preset memory to adjust it to an optimum picture. The memory number and signal type of that signal are displaye d in the INP U T SETTING menu. You can also adjust the preset data through the INPUT SETTING menu. This projector has 20 types of user memories for INPUT-A into which you can save the setting of the adjusted data for an unpreset input signal. When an unpreset signal is input for the first time, a memory number is displayed as 00. When you adjust th e data o f the signal in the INPUT SETTING menu, it will be registered to the projector. If more than 20 user memories are registered, the newest memory always overwrites the oldest one.
See the chat on page 39 to find if the signal is registered to the preset memor y.
Since the data is recalled from the preset memory about the following signals, you can use these preset data by adjustin g SIZE. Make fine adjustment by adjusting SHIFT.
When the aspect rat i o of input signal is other than 4:3, a part of the s cr een is displayed in black.
