PC button  
This projector has a function to cool down the heated lamp for a  
fixed period of time (approx. 120 seconds) after projection is  
finished. This feature is referred to as the cool-down mode.  
The purpose of the cool-down mode is to prevent inner parts  
from being deformed or broken by heat from the heated lamp  
as well as to prolong the life of the lamp.  
CAUTION  
Use this button to select a device connected to the PC 1  
or PC 2 terminals. Each time you press the button, the  
selection alternates between PC 1 and PC 2.

Precautions for using batteries  
CAUTIONS  
1. Before instalation, do not connect the projectors power cord.  
2. Do not install the projector in the following places:  
Where there is water, humidity or dust.  
If batteries are used incorrectly, they may crack or  
leak liquid. This could cause a fire, burn, malfunction,  
or staining or damaging of the surroundings.  
Where the projector may be subjected to oil, smoke or cigarette smoke.  
On a soft surface such as a carpet or cushion.  
Where the projector may be subjected to direct sunlight.  
Where temperature is high or humidity is low.  
Allowable operation temperature range: 41°F to 95°F (+5°C to +35°C)  
Allowable relative humidity range: 20% to 80% (no condensation)  
Allowable storage temperature range: 14°F to 140°F (10°C to +60°C)  
Beware of the following:  
Do not mix new and old batteries.  
Do not mix different types of batteries as they differ in  
characteristics.  
Place batteries so they match the polarities indicated:  
(+) to (+) and () to ().  
Be sure to put the minus () end in first to avoid  
short-circuiting.  
Use only designated batteries.  
I
When installing the projector, observe the following:  
Do not use the projector placed on its side.  
2
Install the batteries.  
Place the two supplied batteries (AA/R6-size) in the  
remote control as illustrated below.  
Remove the batteries if the remote is not to be used for a  
prolonged period.  
Avoid using the projector placed on its side. This could cause a malfunction.  
Use the projector within the specified angle.  
When the batteries are exhausted, replace them  
immediately. Otherwise, liquid could leak, or malfunction  
could occur due to leaking liquid. If the leaked liquid  
contacts the skin, wipe it off with a cloth, otherwise the skin  
could become rough.  
Do not use the projector inclined ±30° horizontally (left/right). This could cause color variation or shorten the lamp life.  
Do not block the exhaust vents.  
Do not use a cover which encloses the projector air-tight or blocks the exhaust vents. Allow sufficient space around the  
projector. When the projector is enclosed in a space of the following dimensions, use an air conditioner so the temperature  
inside becomes equal to the outside temperature.  
Do not put batteries into a fire or try to recharge them.  
Batteries run for six months to one year in normal use.  
However, the batteries supplied are for confirming  
operation and may not run that long. When the remote  
control starts failing to work properly, replace the batteries  
with new ones.

I Projected screen position image by amount of shift  
Notes  
* The projected screen position can only shift in an up-and-down direction.  
The illustration shows the screen shifted sidewise for the purpose of explanation.  
For detailed relationship between projection distances and projection screen sizes, refer to Appendix A. The relationships for  
both 4:3 and 16:9 ratios are listed there.  
When installing a screen, use a 4:3 aspect-ratio picture.  
(A 16 : 9 aspect-ratio picture is projected based on the width of the range in which a 4:3 aspect-ratio picture is projected.)  
The diagonal length of a 16:9 aspect-ratio screen is about 91.8% that of a 4:3 aspect-ratio screen. This value is only a guide  
(reference).  
If sunlight or lamp light strikes the projection screen directly, the picture tends to become pale and dim. Use a curtain or  
other means to shield the light.  
Set the projector horizontally on a surface that is within the range of adjustable angles (up/down adjustment angle: +7° ;  
horizontal adjustment angle: ±1.5°).  
If the keystone is adjusted, the projected screen becomes smaller.  
When hanging from the ceiling, use a dedicated hanging fixture (not supplied).

Installing the Projector  
Effective Range and Distance of the Remote Control Unit  
Setting the Position Selecting Screw for Ceiling Mounting  
The remote control unit can be used as either a wireless remote control unit or a wired one.  
When using the projector in an upside-down, ceiling-mounted position (inverted top-to-bottom and right-to-left), the position  
selecting screw for ceiling mountingmust be turned to switch to ceiling mounting.  
This will correct variance in color images (shading), which otherwise would occur in ceiling mounting.  
To revert to normal desktop setting, turn the position selecting screw for ceiling mountingback to the initial position (factory-  
shipped).  
I
Using as a wireless remote control unit  
Aim the remote control unit toward the remote sensor on the front or the rear of the projector.  
The operable distance of the remote control unit is about 10 m for direct reception. The remote control unit can be used by  
having it reflected on the screen. In this case, the total distance of A+Bshould be about 10 m or less. The operable angles  
of the remote control unit are 15° right and left, and 15° up and down.  
When using the projector in an upside-down, ceiling-mounted position:  
Turn the position selecting screw for ceiling mountingfully counterclockwise (until it is turning idly).  
Screen  
To again use the projector in a normal desktop setting:  
Turn the position selecting screw for ceiling mountingfully clockwise (until it firmly tightens).  
For normal desktop mounting:  
Turn the screw clockwise.  
For upside-down, ceiling-mounting:  
Turn the screw counterclockwise.

Notes  
After the power is turned on, the image may be jumbled for a  
few seconds, but this is not a malfunction.  
CAUTIONS  
After the indicator comes on, it can take a minute or so for  
the lamp to warm up and operate consistently.  
CAUTIONS  
Do not turn on the projector without installing the lens unit  
(optional). Doing so can cause the lens-hole blind cover  
(black one) initially installed to be deformed by heart from  
the light-source lamp.  
Since the power requirement of the projector is high, insert  
the power plug directly into a wall outlet.  
Use the supplied power cord with the ferrite core only.  
Do not remove the ferrite core from the supplied power  
cord; Otherwise, there may be a possibility that a harmful  
interference occurs.  
To prevent fire and electric shock, observe the  
following:  
When you do not use devices, pull out their power cords  
from wall outlets.  
Do not connect the devices with power cords other than  
those supplied.  
Do not use mains voltage other than the power voltage  
indicated.

Loosen the screws, raise the handle,  
and pull out the light-source lamp.  
Loosen the two screws with a flat-end screwdriver.  
CAUTIONS  
Screw  
If the projector is set up in a constricted place which is unsuitable for work, and if you perform replacement work there, this  
could cause injury. Move the projector to a place large enough for work, and then replace the light-source lamp.  
Use a genuine product for the light-source lamp. If you use other than a genuine product, this could cause a malfunction.  
Also, never use an old light-source lamp. This could cause marked degradation in performance or explode, possibly causing  
the projector to malfunction or broken pieces to injure you.  
Note  
The screws are fitted so that they do not come off the light-  
source lamp.  
Do not replace the light-source lamp immediately after the projector has been used. The temperature of the light-source  
lamp is still high and could cause a burn. Allow a cooling period of one hour or more before performing replacement.  
Before starting light-source lamp replacement work, turn off the MAIN POWER switch, and disconnect the power cord from  
the wall outlet. If you perform the replacement work with the power cord connected, this could cause injury or electric shock.  
The light-source lamp used in this projector is a high pressure mercury lamp. Be careful when disposing of the light-source  
lamp. If anything is unclear, please consult your dealer.

If the same warning indication is observed again, after the cooling fan has stopped, turn off the MAIN POWER switch, unplug  
the power cord, and call your dealer for repair.  
These should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the cabinet is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted  
neutral detergent and wring well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.  
Since the cabinet may deteriorate in quality, become damaged, or show paint peeled, note the following:  
Do not wipe with rough cloth.  
Do not wipe vigorously.  
Do not wipe with thinner or benzene.  
Do not apply any volatile substance such as insecticides.  
Do not allow any rubber or vinyl article to remain in contact with the cabinet for a long time.  
Stains on the lens  
These should be cleaned off with commercially available lens blowers or lens cleaning paper (for cleaning glasses and  
cameras).  
Do not use liquid cleaning agents. This could cause the surface coating to be removed.  
Do not rub, scratch or hit the lens as its surface is prone to damage.
