B Projecting/Adjusting an Image
Projecting an Image
The size of a projected image depends on the distance between the projector and screen. Install
the projector so that the projected image fits the screen size. For details on projection distances
and projected image sizes, see “Projection Distance and Lens Shift Range” (page 56).
Notes
• Due to the characteristics of ultra short throw projector, the image may appear uneven on a
projection surface that is not absolutely flat. This is not a malfunction of the projector.
• Project the image on a flat surface.

The image may not display correctly because the input signal
cannot be judged correctly. In this case, set Aspect manually.
The images become trapezoidal because of the projection
angle. In this case, you can correct the trapezoidal distortion,
using a Keystone feature.
The settings for “Brightness,” “Contrast,” and “Lamp Mode”

Troubleshooting
Replacing the Lamp
Replace the lamp with a new one if a message displayed on the projected image or the LAMP/
COVER indicator notifies you to replace the lamp (pages 41, 42).
Use an LMP-E212 projector lamp (not supplied) for replacement.
Caution
• The lamp remains hot after the projector is
turned off. If you touch the lamp, you may
burn your finger. When you replace the
lamp, wait for at least an hour after
turning off the projector for the lamp to
cool sufficiently.
• Do not allow any metallic or inflammable
objects into the lamp replacement slot after
removing the lamp, otherwise it may cause
electrical shock or fire. Do not put your
hands into the slot.
Notes
• If the lamp breaks, contact qualified
Sony personnel. Do not replace the lamp
your sel f.
• When removing the lamp, be sure to pull it
out straight, by holding the designated
location. If you touch a part of the lamp other
than the designated location, you may be
burned or injured. If you pull out the lamp
while the projector is tilted, the pieces may
scatter if the lamp breaks any may cause
injury.
1 Turn off the projector, and disconnect
the AC power cord from a wall outlet.
2 When the lamp has cooled
sufficiently, open the lamp cover by
loosening 1 screw.

3 Loosen the 2 screws on the lamp then
pull out the lamp by its grab.

4 Insert the new lamp all the way in until
it is securely in place. Tighten the
2 screws.
5 Close the lamp cover and tighten the
1 screw.
Note
Be sure to install the lamp securely as it
was. If not, the projector cannot be turned
on.
6 Connect the AC power cord to a wall
outlet and turn on the projector.
7 Reset the lamp timer for notification of
the next replacement time.
Select “Lamp Timer Reset” on the
Function menu then press the ENTER
key. When a message appears, select
“Yes” to reset the lamp timer (page 21).

Caution
Disposal of the used lamp
For the customers in the USA
Lamp in this product contains mercury.
Disposal of these materials may be
regulated due to environmental
considerations. For disposal or
recycling information, please contact
your local authorities or the
Telecommunications Industry
Association (www.eiae.org).
Cleaning the Air Filter
When a message appears on the projected image indicating time for a filter cleaning, clean the
air filter (pages 41, 42).
If the dust cannot be removed from the air filter even after cleaning, replace the air filter with
a new one.
For details on a new air filter, consult with qualified Sony personnel.
Caution
If you neglect to clean the air filter, dust may accumulate, clogging it. As a result, the
temperature may rise inside the unit, leading to a possible malfunction or fire.
1 Turn off the projector, and disconnect
the AC power cord from the AC outlet.
2 Open the air filter cover and remove
the air filter holder.
Press A and open the air filter cover
towards the arrow head as illustrated
below, and remove the air filter holder.

Projection Distance and Lens Shift Range
The projection distance is the distance between the center of the projection window and the
surface of the projected image. The following describes the projection distance and height from
the center of the projection window to edge of screen by each projected screen size. Height H
is the height from the bottom of the projected image (top for wall mount) to A (determined by
drawing a perpendicular line from the center of the projection window to projected image
surface).
