IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

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. Do not use the unit for at least 2 hours when there is an extreme or sudden change in temperature to prevent the unit from possible damage.
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. If you continue to use it in that situation, it may malfunction. 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]. Only plug the power cord into outlets rated for use with the power cord’s specified voltage
• range. Do not overload extension cords or power strips as this can result in fire or electric shock. Route the power cable or the connecting cable away from where people could trip over it.
• The projector may fall down, which could result in severe injury. Be sure the power cord is easily reached for unplugging in case of emergency. Do not
• place any obstacles near a wall outlet in which the cord is plugged.

Precautions
Lamp characteristics may rarely cause the brightness to fl uctuate slightly.
The DLP® chip is made using extremely advanced technology. There may be black spots (pixels that do not light) or bright spots (pixels that are constantly lit) on the panel. These are intrinsic characteristics of the technology and are not malfunctions.
Notes
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.) 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, set the computer’s external output to XGA. 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 computer’s owner’s manual. If no signal is being input from the connected equipment or signal input is stopped while
• projecting, the “No signal” message will appear. If a signal not supported by the projector is input, the “Unsupported signal” message

Correcting the keystone distortion

When the projector placement angle against the screen is changed while projecting the image, the picture will undergo keystone (trapezoidal) distortion. This projector is capable of correcting this keystone distortion.
The keystone distortion will be corrected automatically based on the projector’s placement angle.

adjustment.
Notes
Depending on the amount of keystone adjustment and the content of images, some information may be lost, or the picture quality may suffer. Even if [Auto keystone] is set to [On], keystone distortion can be adjusted
• manually. Note that if you change the position or angle of the projector, automatic keystone correction will be performed again. When [Auto keystone] is set to [On], the automatic keystone correction will be
• performed each time the power is turned on. The keystone correction settings are memorized after the power has been turned off.
• Therefore, it is recommended that you set [Auto keystone] to [Off], if the case is that the projector placement angle against the screen remains unchanged and you do not wish to change the keystone adjustment that you set. Some adjustments using both digital zoom and keystone correction while displaying
• an input image with a 16:9 aspect ratio, may affect displaying the menu properly. In such a case, reset either digital zoom or keystone correction to use the menu.
