Using the remote control
Putting batteries into the remote control unit
CAUTION
Precautions to observe in regards to the batteries Always handle the batteries with care and use them only as directed. Improper use may result in battery cracking or leakage, which could result in fire, injury and/or pollution of the surrounding environment.
Keep the battery away from children and pets.
Be sure to use only the batteries specified for use with the remote control. Do not mix new batteries with
used ones.
When inserting batteries, verify that the plus and minus terminals are aligned correctly (as indicated in the
remote control).
When you dispose the battery, you should obey the law in the relative area or country.

Operating the remote control
The remote control works with both the projector's front and rear remote sensors.
The range of the remote sensor on the front and back is 3 meters with a 60-degree range (30 degrees to the left and right of the remote sensor).
Since the remote control uses infrared light to send signals to the projector (Class 1 LED), be sure to use the remote control in an area free from obstacles that could block the remote control's output signal to the projector.
ATTENTION
Precautions to observe when using the remote control
Do not drop or otherwise expose the remote control to physical impact.
Do not get the remote control wet or place it on wet objects. Doing so may result in malfunction.
Remove the batteries from the remote control and store them in a safe place if you won't be using the remote control for an extended period.
Replace the batteries whenever the remote control starts to malfunction.
When strong light, such as direct sunlight or light from an extremely close range (such as from an inverter fluorescent lamp), hits the projector's remote sensor, the remote control may cease to function. Adjust the direction of the projector to keep light from directly hitting the projector's remote sensor.

About disposal of a lamp
This product contains a mercury lamp; do not put in trash. Dispose of in accord with environmental laws.
For lamp recycling, go to www.lamprecycle.org. (in USA)
For product disposal, contact your local government agency or www.eiae.org (in the US) or www.epsc.ca (in Canada).
For more information, call your dealer.
If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), unplug the power cord from the outlet, and make sure to request a replacement lamp from your local dealer. Note that shards of glass could damage the projector’s internals, or cause injury during handling, so please do not try to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.
If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), ventilate the

room well, and make sure not to breathe the gas that comes out of the projector vents, or get it in your eyes or mouth.
Before replacing the lamp, make sure the power switch is off and the power cable is not plugged in, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool sufficiently. Handling the lamp while hot can cause burns, as well as damaging the lamp.
Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is suspended from above. This is dangerous, since if the lamp’s bulb has broken, the shards will fall out when the cover is opened. In addition, working in high places is dangerous, so ask your local dealer to have the lamp replaced even if the bulb is not broken.
Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed. At the lamp replacing, make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose screws could result in damage or injury.
Use only the lamp of the specified type
RLU-150-001
.
If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, it is possible that there are electrical problems else where besides the lamp. If this happens, contact your local dealer or a service representative.
Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst during use.
If the indicators or a message prompts you to replace the lamp (see the section “Related Messages” and “Regarding the indicator Lamps”), replace the lamp as soon as possible. Using the lamp for long periods of time, or past the replacement date, could cause it to burst. Do not use old (used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.
ViewSonic PJ650/PJ520 31
Lamp Life
Projector lamps have a finite life. The projected images will become darker and hues will become weaker after a lamp has been used for a long period of time.
The LAMP indicator also becomes red when the lamp unit reaches a high temperature. Before replacing the lamp, switch the POWER OFF, wait approximately 20 minutes, then switch the POWER ON again. If the LAMP indicator still displays red, replace the lamp.
Replacing the Lamp
All projector lamps will wear out eventually. If used for long periods of time, the image could become darkened, and the color contrast could be impacted as well. We recommend that you replace your lamps early. If the LAMP indicator turns red, or a message prompts you to replace the lamp when you power up the projector, the lamp needs to be replaced.

ATTENTION:
Make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose screws could result in damage or injury.
Do not use with lamp cover removed.
Do not reset the lamp timer without replacing the lamp.
NOTE:
The LAMP indicator is also red when the lamp unit reaches high temperature. Before replacing the lamp, switch power OFF, wait approximately 20 minutes, and switch power ON again. If the LAMP indicator is still red, replace the lamp.
Caring for the Air Filter
The air filter should be cleaned about every 100 hours. Clean the filter if the LAMP indicator and TEMP indicator blink red simultaneously, or if a message prompts you to clean the air filter when you turn on the unit, the filter needs to be cleaned. (Refer to “On-Screen Messages” in the Trouble-shooting section.)

CAUTION:
Switch power OFF and remove the power cord from the power outlet before beginning maintenance work.
Replace the air filter if contamination cannot be removed or if it is damaged.
Do not use the equipment with the air filter removed.
When the air filter becomes clogged with dust etc., the power supply may switch OFF automatically to prevent the temperature from rising inside the projector.
Make sure the lens is cool before cleaning.
Do not use detergents or solvents such as benzene or thinners.
Do not use chemical sprays.
Use a soft cloth or lens paper only.
ViewSonic PJ650/PJ520 33
Caring for the Inside of the Projector
In order to ensure the safe use of your projector, please have it cleaned and inspected by an authorized Service Provider approximately once every 2 years. Never try to care for the inside of the unit yourself. Doing so is dangerous.
Caring for the Lens
Lightly wipe the lens with a commercially available lens-cleaning wipe. Do not touch the lens directly with your hand.
Caring for the Cabinet and Remote Control Transmitter
Wipe lightly with gauze or a soft cloth. If soiling is severe, dip a soft cloth in water or a neutral cleanser diluted in water, and wipe lightly after wringing well. Then, wipe lightly with a soft, dry cloth.
CAUTION:
Make sure to turn off the power and unplug the power cord before caring for the unit. Please care-fully read all the PJ650 / PJ520 Quick START GUIDE in this manual, in order to care for your projector correctly.
Do not use cleaners or chemicals other than those listed above, including benzene and paint thinner.
Do not use aerosols or sprays.
Do not polish or wipe with coarse material.
Gently wipe with a soft cloth. If dirt and stains etc. are not easily removed, use a soft cloth dampened with water, or water and a neutral detergent, and wipe dry with a soft, dry cloth.
