Moisture Condensation

Never operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a warm location.
When the unit is exposed to such a change in temperature, moisture may condense on
the lens and the crucial internal parts. To prevent the unit from possible damage, do not
use the unit for at least 2 hours when there is an extreme or sudden change in tempera-

.

ture

Place and Manner of Installation

• Do not place in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could cause
malfunction, and shorten the life of the projector.

•Avoid locations with oil or cigarette smoke. Doing so will dirty the optical parts,
shortening their lives, and darkening the screen.

• Do not use this product in the upright position or tilt it up or down by more than 20° from
level. Doing so may cause a failure or shorten the life of the product.

• Using this instrument near a TV or radio may cause interference to the images or audio
sound. If this happens, move it away from the TV or radio.

•Moving the projector from a low-temperature room to a high-temperature room may
cause condensation on the lens or internal parts in the instrument. If you continue to use
it in that situation, the malfunction may result. Ensure to wait until the condensation
naturally disappears.

• In a high altitude location where air is thin, cooling efficiency is reduced so use the
projector with [Fan mode] set to [High].

WARNING

• Always obey the instructions listed in IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS when placing the unit.
Attempting to clean/replace the lamp at a high site by yourself may cause you to drop down, thus
resulting in injury.

• If you wish to mount the projector on the ceiling, be sure to ask your dealer to do so. Mounting the
projector on a ceiling requires special ceiling brackets (sold separately) and specialized knowledge.
Improper mounting could cause the projector to fall, resulting in an accident.

• If the projector is ceiling-mounted, install the breaker for turning off the power in case of anomaly. Let
everyone involved with the use of the projector know that fact.

Connection

Before connection

• Read the owner’s manual of the device you are connecting to the projector.

• Some types of computer cannot be used or connected to this projector.
Check for an RGB output terminal, supported signal

•Turn off the power of both devices before connecting.

• The figures are sample connections.

Operations

CAUTION

• Do not look into the lens while the lamp is on. The strong light from the lamp may cause
damage to your eyes or sight.

• Do not block the air intake or exhaust. Doing so could cause a fire due to internal overheating.

• Do not place your hands, face, or other objects near the air exhaust. Doing so could cause
burns, deform/break the object.

Notes

• The start-up screen will disappear after a moment. You can dismiss the start-up screen
before this by performing any operation. You can also configure the start-up screen not to
appear via the Display setting menu

Note

• The projector consumes about 16W of power in standby. We recommend that you unplug
the power cord or turn off the main power switch if you will not be using the projector for
an extended period. (When [Wireless standby] is [On], it consumes about 23W during
standby.)

Precautions

• If the power cord is unplugged before cooling is complete, give the lamp time (about 5
minutes) to cool before plugging it back in. If the lamp overheats, it may fail to light, and
its lifetime will be shortened.

• After setting the Setting display (2) or changing the settings, be sure to turn off the power
using the ON/STANDBY button.

Notes

• While a text entry screen (e.g., the Password entry screen) is displayed, the remote

control’s FOCUS and ZOOM buttons function as numeric keys, and therefore cannot be
used to adjust the screen size or focus. In such a case, use the FOCUS and ZOOM
buttons on the projector to make adjustment or retry after quitting the text entry screen.

• Note that a lamp characteristics may rarely cause the brightness to fluctuate slightly.

•A lamp is consumable item. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and
the lamp could burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The
lifetime of the lamp depends on conditions of use.)

• The DMD
(pixels that do not light) or bright spots (pixels that are constantly lit) on the panel. Please
note that these are not malfunctions.

• Although this projector supports a wide range of RGB signals
supported by this projector (XGA) will be expanded or shrunk, which will affect image
quality slightly. To view high-quality images, it is recommended that the computer’s
external output should be set to XGA resolution.

• With some models of computer having LCD displays or the like, displaying images
simultaneously on the projector and the monitor’s display may prevent the images from
displaying properly. If this happens, turn off the computer’s LCD display. For information
on how to turn off the LCD display, see the owner’s manual of your computer.

• If no signal is being input from the connected equipment or signal input is stopped while
projecting, the “No signal” will appear.

• If a signal not supported by the projector is input, the “Unsupport signal” will appear.

• If an unavailable operation button is pressed, the
