TO THE OWNER
Before operating this projector, read this manual thoroughly and operate the projector properly.
This projector provides many convenient features and functions. Operating the projector properly enables you to
manage those features and maintains it in better condition for a considerable time.
Improper operation may result in not only shortening the product-life, but also malfunctions, fire hazard, or other
accidents.
If your projector seems to operate improperly, read this manual again, check operations and cable connections and try
the solutions in the TROUBLESHOOTING section at the end of this booklet. If the problem still persists, contact the
sales dealer where you purchased the projector or the service center.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING : TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO
RAIN OR MOISTURE.
This projector produces intense light from the projection lens. Do not stare directly into the lens as it could
possibly damage your eyes. Be especially careful that children do not stare directly into the beam.
This projector should be installed as shown. If not, it may result in a fire hazard.
Provide appropriate space on the top, sides and rear of the
projector cabinet for allowing air circulation and cooling the
projector. Minimum clearance must be maintained. If the
projector is to be built into a compartment or similarly enclosed,
the minimum distances must be maintained. Do not cover the
ventilation slot on the projector. Heat build-up can reduce the
service life of your projector, and can also be dangerous.

For added protection to the projector during a lightning storm,

or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of
time, unplug it from the wall outlet. This will prevent damage
due to lightning and power line surges.
Do not attempt to service this projector yourself as opening or

removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or
other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
Do not expose this unit to rain or use near water... for

example, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, etc...
Do not use attachments not recommended by the
manufacturer as they may cause hazards.
Do not place this projector on an unstable cart, stand, or table.
The projector may fall, causing serious injury to a child or
adult, and serious damage to the projector. Use only with a
cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with
the projector. Wall or shelf mounting should follow the
manufacturer's instructions, and should use a mounting kit
approved by the manufacturers.
An appliance and cart combination should
be moved with care. Quick stops,
excessive force, and uneven surfaces
may cause the appliance and cart
combination to overturn.
Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are
provided for ventilation, to insure reliable operation of the
equipment and to protect it from overheating.

qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
a. When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
b. If liquid has been spilled into the projector.
c. If the projector has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the projector does not operate normally by following the
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions as improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the projector to normal operation.
e. If the projector has been dropped or the cabinet has been
damaged.
f. When the projector exhibits a distinct change in
performance-this indicates a need for service.
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service
technician has used replacement parts specified by the
manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,
electric shock, or injury to persons.
Upon completion of any service or repairs to this projector, ask
the service technician to perform routine safety checks to
determine that the projector is in safe operating condition.
The openings should never be covered with cloth or other

materials, and the bottom opening should not be blocked by
placing the projector on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar
surface. This projector should never be placed near or over a
radiator or heat register.
This projector should not be placed in a built-in installation
such as a book case unless proper ventilation is provided.

MANUAL PC ADJUSTMENT
This projector can automatically tune to the display signals from most personal computers currently distributed. However,
some computers employ special signal formats which are different from the standard ones and may not be tuned by MultiScan system of this projector. If this happens, the projector cannot reproduce a proper image and the image may be
recognized as a flickering picture, a non-synchronized picture, a non-centered picture or a skewed picture.
This projector has Manual PC Adjustment to enable you to precisely adjust several parameters to match with those special
signal formats. This projector has 5 independent memory areas to memorize those parameters manually adjusted. This
enables you to recall the setting for a specific computer whenever you use it.

LAMP HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

This projector uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly. Improper
handling may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.
Lamp lifetime may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no
guarantee of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their lifetime in a
shorter period of time than other similar lamps.
If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if the LAMP REPLACE INDICATOR
lights up, replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the projector has cooled down.
( Follow carefully the instructions in the LAMP REPLACEMENT section of this manual. ) Continuous
use of the lamp with the LAMP REPLACE INDICATOR lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.
A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its
lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or conditions in
which the projector and lamp are being used.
IF A LAMP EXPLODES, THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN.

If a lamp explodes, disconnect the projectors AC plug from the AC outlet immediately. Contact an
authorized service station for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp. Additionally, check
carefully to ensure that there are no broken shards or pieces of glass around the projector or coming out
from the cooling air circulation holes. Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully. No one
should check the inside of the projector except those who are authorized trained technicians and who are
familiar with projector service. Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those who
are not appropriately trained to do so, may result in an accident or injury caused by pieces of broken
glass.

AIR FILTER CARE AND CLEANING

Removable Air Filter prevents dust from accumulating on the surface of the Projection Lens and Projection Mirror. Should
the Air Filter become clogged with dust particles, it will reduce Cooling Fans effectiveness and may result in internal heat
build up and adversely affect the life of the projector. Clean the Air Filter following the steps below:
Turn off the projector, and disconnect AC power cord from the
AC outlet.
Turn the projector upside down and remove the Air Filter by
pulling the latches upward.
3
4
Clean the Air Filter with a brush or wash out dust and particles.
Replace the Air Filter properly. Make sure that the Air Filter is
fully inserted.
CAUTION
Do not operate the projector with the Air Filter removed.
Dust may accumulate on the LCD Panel and the Projection
Mirror degrading picture quality.
Do not put small parts into the Air Intake Vents. It may
result in malfunction of the projector.
AIR FILTER
Pull up and remove.
RECOMMENDATION
We recommend avoiding dusty/smoky environments when operating a projector. Usage in these environments
may cause poor image quality.
When using under dusty or smoky conditions, dust may accumulate on a lens, liquid crystal panels, or optical elements
inside the projector. This condition may degrade the quality of a projected image.
When the above symptoms are noticed, contact your authorized dealer or service station for proper cleaning.
CLEANING PROJECTION LENS

Follow these steps to clean the Projection Lens:
Apply a non-abrasive camera lens cleaner to a soft, dry cleaning cloth. Avoid using an excessive amount of cleaner.
Abrasive cleaners, solvents or other harsh chemicals might scratch a surface.

Lightly wipe a cleaning cloth over the Projection Lens.

When the projector is not in use, replace the Lens Cover.
