Important Information
LAMP HANDLING
PRECAUTIONS
This projector uses a high-pressure mercury lamp which must be handled carefully and properly as mentioned below.
• A lamp may explode with a loud sound or burn out due to a shock, scratch, or expiration of lifetime.
• The lamp life may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is not guarantee
of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period of time than
other similar lamps.
• A lamp gradually becomes darker with time of use.
• If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced (i.e., the LAMP indicator blinks red rapidly), chanc-
es of explosion become higher. Replace the lamp with a new one immediately.
• Always keep your face away from the exhaust vent so that you do not suffer from the gas and broken shards
of the lamp.
IF A LAMP EXPLODES
If a lamp explodes, the gas and broken shards may scatter inside the projector and they may come
out of the exhaust vent. The gas contains toxic mercury.
Open windows and doors for ventilation.
If you inhale the gas or the shards of the broken lamp enter your eyes or mouth, consult the doctor
immediately.
If a lamp explodes, its shards may scatter inside the projector. Ask the Canon service representa-
tive to clean and check the inside of the projector and replace the lamp.
Lamp Replacement
• To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page 57.
• Be sure to replace the lamp when the message [Replace with the new lamp.] appears. If you continue to use
the lamp after the lamp has reached the end of its usable life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass
may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury.
If this happens, contact your dealer for lamp replacement.
CAUTION
When removing the lamp from a ceiling-mounted projector, make sure that no one is under the pro-
jector. Glass fragments could fall if the lamp has been burned out.

Important Information
For UK only: In UK, a BS approved power cord with moulded plug has a Black (five Amps) fuse installed for use
with this equipment. If a power cord is not supplied with this equipment please contact your supplier.
Important Safeguards
These safety instructions are to ensure the long life of your projector and to prevent fire and shock. Please read
them carefully and heed all warnings.
Installation
• Do not place the projector in the following conditions:
- on an unstable cart, stand, or table.
- near water, baths or damp rooms.
- in direct sunlight, near heaters or heat radiating appliances.
- in a dusty, smoky or steamy environment.
- on a sheet of paper or cloth, rugs or carpets.
• If you wish to have the projector installed on the ceiling:
- Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
- The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure proper operation and reduce
the risk of bodily injury.
- In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the installation must be in ac-
cordance with any local building codes.
- Please consult your dealer for more information.
10˚
CAUTION
• Do not try to touch the ventilation outlet on the left side (when seen from the front) as it can become heated
while the projector is turned on.
• Do not use the tilt-foot for purposes other than originally intended. Misuses such as gripping the tilt-foot or
hanging on the wall can cause damage to the projector.
• Select [High] in Fan mode if you continue to use the projector for consecutive days. (From the menu, select
[Setup]→ [Options] → [Fan mode] → [High].) Fan noise increases noticeably in High mode.
• Select [High] in Fan mode if you use the projector at a high altitude or under low atmospheric pressure.
• Do not turn off the AC power by pressing the main power switch or by unplugging the power cord when the
projector is powered on.
• Do not turn off the AC power for 60 seconds after the lamp is turned on and while the POWER indicator is
blinking green. Doing so could cause premature lamp failure.

TIP:
• For the relationship between the screen size and projection distance, see the table on page 68, 69.
• The sizes in the above table have been obtained assuming that the aspect ratio is 4:3. They may vary from the actual sizes
depending on the type of the projected image.
• The Zoom lever adjusts the image size (diagonal) +/- 30%.
NOTE:
This projector can be hung from the ceiling (Ceiling mounted) with it turned up side down.
When a translucent screen is used, the projector can project an image from behind the screen (Rear).
When the projector is hung from the ceiling or projector projects an image from behind the screen, the image must be inverted
vertically or horizontally. See page 49.
• When hanging the projector from the ceiling, optional brackets (part No. LV-CL11) are required.

❷ Making Connections
NOTE: When using with a notebook PC, be sure to connect the projector and notebook PC while the projector is in standby
mode and before turning on the power to the notebook PC.
In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector before being powered
up.
* If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer's screen-saver or power man-
agement software.

2. Installation and Connections
When Viewing a DVI Digital Signal (LV-7265)
To project a DVI digital signal, be sure to connect the PC and the projector using a DVI digital cable (not supplied)
before turning on your PC or projector. Turn on the projector first and select Computer 2 (Digital) from the source
menu before turning on your PC.
Failure to do so may not activate the digital output of the graphics card resulting in no picture being displayed.
Should this happen, restart your PC.
Do not disconnect the DVI digital cable while the projector is running. If the signal cable has been disconnected
and then reconnected, an image may not be correctly displayed. Should this happen, restart your PC.
NOTE:
• Use a DVI digital cable or the one compliant with DDWG (Digital Display Working Group) DVI (Digital Visual Interface) revi-
sion 1.0 standard. The DVI digital cable should be within 5 m (196") long. Both single and dual types of DVI digital cable can
be used.
• The DVI (DIGITAL) connector accepts VGA (640x480), SVGA (800x600), 1152x864, XGA (1024x768), SXGA (1280x1024 @ up
to 60Hz) and SXGA+ (1400x1050 @ up to 60Hz).

WARNING indicator blinking (2-cycle On and Off.)
Should this happen, do the following:
- Unplug the power cord after the cooling fans stop.
- Move the projector to a cooler location if the room where you are presenting is particularly too warm.
- Clean the ventilation holes if they are clogged with dust.
- Wait about 60 minutes until the inside of the projector becomes cool enough.
