To the Owner
Before installing and 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 maintain it in good
condition for many years to come.
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
in the back of this manual. If the problem still persists,
contact the dealer where you purchased the projector or
the service center.
Safety Precaution
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. Avoid staring directly into the lens,
otherwise eye damage could result. Be especially
careful that children do not stare directly into the
beam.
– Install the projector in a proper position. Otherwise it
may result in fire hazard.
– Allowing the proper amount of space on the projector
cabinet is critical for proper air circulation and cooling
of the unit. The dimensions shown here indicate the
minimum space required. If the projector is to be
built into a compartment or similarly enclosed, these
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.

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 life may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no guarantee
of the same life for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their life 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 it
comes to the end of life. 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 BETAKEN.
If a lamp explodes, disconnect the projector’s 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.
