Important safety instructions

Your projector is designed and tested to meet the latest standards for safety of information
technology equipment. However, to ensure safe use of this product, it is important that you
follow the instructions mentioned in this manual and marked on the product.

Safety Instructions

1. Please read this manual before you operate your projector. Save it for future
reference.

2. Do not look straight at the projector lens during operation. The intense light beam
may damage your eyes.

3. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

4. Always open the lens shutter or remove the lens cap when the projector lamp is

on.

5. In some countries, the line voltage is NOT stable. This projector is designed to operate
safely within a mains voltage between 100 to 240 volts AC, but could fail if power
cuts or surges of ±10 volts occur. In areas where the mains voltage may fluctuate

or cut out, it is recommended that you connect your projector through a power
stabilizer, surge protector or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).

6. Do not block the projection lens with any objects when the projector is under
operation as this could cause the objects to become heated and deformed or even
cause a fire. To temporarily turn off the lamp, press BLANK on the projector or
remote control.

7. The lamp becomes extremely hot during operation. Allow the projector to cool for
approximately 45 minutes prior to removing the lamp assembly for replacement.

8. Do not operate lamps beyond the rated lamp life. Excessive operation of lamps
beyond the rated life could cause them to break on rare occasions.

9. Never replace the lamp assembly or any electronic components unless the projector is
unplugged.

10. Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall,
sustaining serious damage.

11. Do not attempt to disassemble this projector. There are dangerous high voltages inside
which may cause death if you should come into contact with live parts.

Under no circumstances should you ever undo or remove any other covers. Refer
servicing only to suitably qualified professional service personnel.

12. Do not place this projector in any of the following environments.

- Space that is poorly ventilated or confined. Allow at least 50 cm clearance from walls
and free flow of air around the projector.

- Locations where temperatures may become excessively high, such as the inside of a
car with all windows rolled up.

- Locations where excessive humidity, dust, or cigarette smoke may contaminate optical
components, shortening the projector's life span and darkening the picture.

- Locations near fire alarms

- Locations with an ambient temperature above 40°C / 104°F

- Locations where the altitudes are higher than 3000 m (10000 feet).

2

13. Do not block the ventilation holes. If the ventilation holes are seriously obstructed,
overheating inside the projector may result in a fire.

- Do not place this projector on a blanket, bedding or any other soft surface.

- Do not cover this projector with a cloth or any other item.

- Do not place inflammables near the projector.

14. Always place the projector on a level, horizontal surface during operation.

- Do not use if tilted at an angle of more than 10 degrees left to right, nor at angle of
more than 15 degrees front to back. Using the projector when it is not fully horizontal
may cause a malfunction of, or damage to, the lamp.

15. Do not stand the projector on end vertically. Doing so may cause the projector to fall
over, causing injury or resulting in damage to the projector.

16. Do not step on the projector or place any objects upon it. Besides probable physical
damage to the projector, doing so may result in accidents and possible injury.

17. Do not place liquids near or on the projector. Liquids spilled into the projector may
cause it to fail. If the projector does become wet, disconnect it from the power
supply's wall socket and call your local service center to have the projector serviced.

18. This product is capable of displaying inverted pictures for ceiling mount installation.

Use only qualified ceiling mount kit for mounting the projector and ensure it is
securely installed.

19. When the projector is under operation, you may sense some heated air and odor from
its ventilation grill. It is a normal phenomenon and not a product defect.

20. Do not use the Security bar for transporting or installation. It should be used with a
commercially available theft prevention cable.

21. CAUTION
Possibly hazardous optical radiation emitted from
this product. Do not stare at operating lamp. May be
harmful to the eyes. Risk Group 2. As with any bright
light source, do not stare into the beam, RG2 IEC 62471-5:201

Warni ng

• THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED.

• When installing the unit, incorporate a readily accessible disconnect device in the fixed

wiring, or connect the power plug to an easily accessible socket-outlet near the unit. If a
fault should occur during operation of the unit, operate the disconnect device to switch
the power supply off, or disconnect the power plug.

Safety instructions for ceiling mounting of the projector

We want you to have a pleasant experience using your projector, so we need to bring this
safety matter to your attention to prevent damage to person and property.

If you intend to mount your projector on the ceiling, we strongly recommend that you use a
proper fitting projector ceiling mount kit and that you ensure it is securely and safely
installed.

If you use an inappropriate projector ceiling mount kit, there is a safety risk that the
projector may fall from the ceiling due to an improper attachment through the use of the
wrong gauge or length screws.

You can purchase a projector ceiling mount kit from the place you purchased your projector.
We recommend that you also purchase a separate security cable and attach it securely to
both the anti-theft lock slot on the projector and the base of the ceiling mount bracket. This

3

will perform the secondary role of restraining the projector should its attachment to the
mounting bracket become loose.

This function is only available when PC D-Sub input signal (analog RGB) is selected.

It is recommended that you display a bright image when performing this function.

Fine-tuning the image clarity

1. Adjust the projected image to the size
that you need using the zoom ring.

2. If necessary, sharpen the image by rotating
the focus ring.

Selecting the aspect ratio

The 'aspect ratio' is the ratio of the image width to the image height.

With the advent of digital signal processing, digital display devices like this projector can
dynamically stretch and scale the image output to a different aspect than that of the image
input signal.

To select an image ratio that suits your need (no matter what aspect the source is), you can
follow one of the following steps.

• Press Aspect repeatedly.

•Go to the DISPLAY > Aspect Ratio menu and press Enter. Press / to select an
aspect ratio to suit the format of the video signal and your display requirements.

About the aspect ratio

1. Auto: Scales an image proportionally to fit the projector's native resolution in its

horizontal width. This is suitable for the incoming image which is neither in 4:3 nor
16:9 and you want to make most use of the screen without altering the image's aspect
ratio.

2. 4:3: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the center of the screen with a 4:3 aspect

ratio. This is most suitable for 4:3 images like computer monitors, standard definition
TV and 4:3 aspect DVD movies, as it displays them without aspect alteration.

3. 16:9: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the center of the screen with a 16:9

aspect ratio. This is most suitable for images which are already in a 16:9 aspect, like
high definition TV, as it displays them without aspect alteration.

4. 2.35:1: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the center of the screen with a 2.35:1

aspect ratio. This is most suitable for images which are already in a 2.35:1 aspect, as it
displays them without aspect alteration.

21

The table below demonstrates the effects of the aspect ratio settings on projectors with
different native resolutions. Please see "Projector specifications" on page 50 for the native
display resolution of your projector.

In the pictures below, the black portions are inactive areas and the white portions are active
areas. OSD menus can be displayed on those unused black areas.

Magenta

how the colors relate to each other.
For example, if you select Red and set its

range at 0, only pure red in the projected
picture will be selected. Increasing its range
will include red close to yellow and red close
to magenta.

5. Press to highlight Gain and adjust its
values to your preference by pressing / .

The contrast level of the primary color you
select will be affected. Every adjustment
made will reflect to the image immediately.

6. Press to highlight Saturation and adjust
its values to your preference by pressing / . Every adjustment made will reflect to

the image immediately.
For example, if you select Red and set its value at 0, only the saturation of pure red

will be affected.

Saturation is the amount of that color in a video picture. Lower settings produce less
saturated colors; a setting of “0” removes that color from the image entirely. If the saturation
is too high, that color will be overpowering and unrealistic.

7. Repeat steps 3 to 7 for other color adjustments. Make sure you have made all of the
desired adjustments.

Using the MoviePro menu

Go to the PICTURE > Advanced > MoviePro menu and you can adjust the following
items.

• Color Enhancement: Allows you to fine-tune the saturation of colors with larger

flexibility. It modulates complex color algorithms to flawlessly render saturated colors,
fine gradients, intermediate hues and subtle pigments.

• Skin Tone: Provides a smart adjustment of hue only for calibrating people's skin color,

not other colors in the image. It prevents discoloration of skin tones from the light of the
projection beam, portraying every skin tone in its most beautiful shade.

• Super Resolution: It is a super-resolution technology which radically enhances Full

HD content in terms of colors and textures. It's also a detail enhancement technology
refines surface details for true-to-life images that pop off the screen. Users can adjust
levels of sharpness and detail enhancement for optimal viewing.
