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 qualified

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, 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 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 with the

adjusters when you lift up the projector. Do not

push hard on the top of the projector with the

adjusters out.

On preventing internal heat build-up

After you turn off the power with the 1 key on the

Remote Commander or the I / panel, do not disconnect the unit from the wall outlet while the cooling fan is still running.

Do not block ventilation holes

The projector is equipped with ventilation holes (intake) on the bottom and ventilation holes (exhaust) on the front. Do not block or place anything near these holes, or internal heat build-up may occur, causing picture degradation or damage to the projector.

key on the control

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 the lens. To remove dust on the lens, use a soft dry cloth. Do not use a damp cloth, detergent solution, or thinner.

Overview

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 repacking

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.

About the LCD projector

•The LCD projector is manufactured using highprecision technology. You may, however, see tiny black points and/or bright points (red, blue, or green) that continuously appear on the LCD projector. This is a normal result of the manufacturing process and does not indicate a malfunction.

•Air polluted by tobacco smoke, etc., may have a negative effect on the projector. Be sure to avoid tobacco smoke, etc., from directly getting in to this unit. Ventilate well when using this unit in a closed room.

The newly developed high-resolution wide LCD panel (1366 × 768 dots) provides higher uniformity and reduced ghosts.

•High-contrast

Improvements in the LCD panel and the optical system provide a high-contrast images.

•High-brightness – 1000 ANSI lumens

The LCD panel with its newly developed 200 W UHP lamp, optical unit and lens achieves a high level of brightness of as much as 1000 ANSI lumens (16:9 projection), allowing for improved home viewing.

•High-quality images

In addition to the new wide LCD panel, a variety of functions are now available in the projector. These include DRC-MF (Digital Reality Creation Multifunction), Sony’s proprietary high-quality image technology; CINE MOTION; 3-D Gamma Correction, providing excellent uniformity; Cinema Black Mode, a mode that reduces the black level according to the input source/projection environment; and 3-D YC Separation/DNR (NTSC), a feature that reproduces a clear image without noise.

•Detection of clogs in the air filter

This projector uses an air filter which allows a microcomputer to detect the presence of clogs in the filter according to the environment where the unit is used.

To detect clogs accurately, reset the air filter the first time you use the projector, and every time you replace the air filter.

For details, see “To reset the air filter” on page 42 (GB).

About the preset memory

This projector has 45 kinds of preset data for input signals (the preset memory). When a preset signal is input, this projector automatically detects the signal type. When the signal is registered in the preset memory, a suitable picture is displayed on the screen according to the signal type. The type of input signal is displayed in the INPUT SETTING menu. You can adjust the preset data through the INPUT SETTING menu. This projector also has 20 user memory locations for each INPUT A/B. You can register a new type of signal that is not preset. When an unpreset signal is input for the first time, the adjusted setting made using INPUT A/B in the INPUT SETTING menu is stored. When more than 20 user memory items are registered for each INPUT A/B, the newest memory item is automatically stored over the oldest one.
