Notes

• When the projector is moved from a cold
location to a warm location, or when the
ambient temperature in the projection room
has risen suddenly, moisture may condense
on the lens or the mirror to blur the projected
pictures. In such a case, leave the projector
for an adequate time (1 to 2 hours, depending
on the room’s condition) before using it so it
adjusts to the ambient temperature.

• If the screen is exposed to direct sunlight or
other strong light, the projected picture
becomes too faint to see. Shut out the light
with curtains or other means.

• If the screen and the projector are not
installed properly, the projected picture may
be distorted.

• If the projector is tilted, the picture may be
distorted. To obtain the best possible picture,
place the projector so it faces the screen
squarely.

Maintenance

Air filter, lens and main unit
cleaning

CAUTION

If you use the projector mounted on the
ceiling, ask the dealer to carry out the
maintenance such as cleaning.

Cleaning the air filter

The filter under the air filter cover is the device
to shut out dusts or dregs.

Do not use the projector with the filter taken off.
Give a frequent clean especially to the air filter.

(The cleaning period is once per about 50
hours).

1) Unplug the power cord.

2) Take off the air filter cover.

The filter is on the right side of the projector.
Pull up the filter tabs.

3) Clean the air filter cover.

Remove dust and stains with a vacuum
cleaner.

Cleaner’s
nozzle

4) Attach the air filter cover.

Notes

• When the air filter is dusty, the ventilation is
impaired. This causes the temperature inside
the projector to rise, and may damage the
unit.

• Attach the air filter cover firmly after the
cleaning. If it is not set correctly, the dusts will
enter and they will be projected and
overlapped on the picture.

Cleaning the lens

Use a blower or a lens cleaner to clean the
lens.

Never rub or tap the lens with a hard object as
the lens surface is fragile.

Cleaning the main unit

• Pull out the power cord before cleaning.

• Use a soft cloth to wipe off stains from the
surface.

• To remove difficult stains, use a soft cloth
slightly moistened with a weak solution of
synthetic detergent and water, and finish with
a soft, dry cloth.

Replacing the intake, exhaust fans
and air filter

To maintain the efficiency of the projector,
replace the intake and exhaust fans about
every two to three years.

Ask the dealer for the replacement.

Notes

• If the mode identification does not define the mode described on the chart above, adjust to the
projection details.

• If the mode identification is carried out correctly, a normal display may be not obtained
depending on the signal frequency.

• SXGA, UXGA signals can be projected since the projector has simplified compatibility with them.
(However, letters and lines can be inequal or a part can be missing. Some signals may not be
projected at all.)

• Some computers may have output modes which are not compatible with this projector . Check
the compatibility of the connectors, signal levels, timing, and resolutions.
