To prevent the unit from   possible damage, do not use the unit for at least 2 hours when there is an extreme or sudden change in temperature.   Place and Manner of Installation   • Do not place the projector in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could cause   malfunction, and shorten the life of the LCD panel.   • Avoid locations with oil or cigarette smoke. Doing so will dirty the LCD panel and other optical parts,   shortening their lives, and darkening the screen.   • Do not place slantwise in angle of 20° or more. Doing so could shorten the life of the lamp.   • Using this product near a TV or radio may cause interference to the images or audio sound. If this happens,   move it away from the TV or radio.   • Moving the projector from a low-temperature room to a high-temperature room may cause condensation on the   lens or internal parts of the product. If you continue to use it in that situation, the malfunction may result.   Ensure to wait until the condensation naturally disappears.   • In a high altitude location where air is thin, cooling efficiency of the projector is reduced. In this case, lower the   ambient temperature and use it.   Avoid Volatile Liquid   Do not use volatile liquids, such as an insect spray, near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products   touching the unit for a long time. They will leave marks on the finish.   If cleaning with a chemically saturated cloth, be sure to follow the product's precautions.   LCD Panel   The life of the LCD panel is limited. Take care over the points below so as to use the panel for years.   • To prolong the life of this panel, never fail to turn the power off when the panel is not in use and make sure that   the lamp has gone out. The state of the lamp being extinguished helps enhance the effect of energy saving.   • If the air filter is stained and is clogged up, the main unit inner temperature rises. As a result, the life of the   LCD is shortened and a malfunction may also occur.   Clean the air filter from time to time and replace it regularly. It is recommended that this replacement be done   at the time of replacing a lamp. (Ask a dealer where the unit was purchased or your nearby service station   about an air filter for replacement.)   In the spaces provided below, record the Model and Serial No. located at the bottom of your LCD projector.   Model No.   Serial No.   Retain this information for future reference.   EXEMPTION CLAUSES   • Toshiba Corporation bears no responsibility in the case of damages arising from natural disaster (such as   earthquakes, lightning, etc.), fires not liable to Toshiba Corporation, operating by third parties, other accidents,   or use under abnormal conditions including erroneous or improper operation and other problems.   • Toshiba Corporation bears no responsibility for incidental damages (lost profit, work interruption, corruption or   loss of the memory contents, etc.) arising from the use of or the inability to use this unit.   • Toshiba Corporation accepts no liability whatsoever for any damages arising from not having followed the   descriptions in this Instruction Manual.   • Toshiba Corporation accepts no liability whatsoever for any damages arising from malfunctions arising from   combination with equipment or software that is not related to Toshiba Corporation.   7 Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

Contact the store where you purchased your projector, or your local Service Station for replace-   ment of the air filters.   The projector’s LCD panel is made using extremely advanced technology, but there may be black   spots (pixels that do not light) or bright spots (pixels that are constantly lit) on the panel. Please   note that these are not malfunctions.   17   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

It is   recommended to lay a soft cloth, such as a thick towel,   under the unit to prevent it from shaking or getting   scratched.   Loosen the three screws.   Position the tilt stand where you can see three screws in   the centers of their respective screw holes. Loosen the   screws by turning them counterclockwise several times.   Detach the tilt stand.   Hold the tilt stand with both hands, turn it   counterclockwise, then lift it to remove.   2 1 To put the tilt stand back in place, take the above steps in reverse order. At this time, always make sure that   the three screws have been tightened.   39   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

The air filter should be cleaned regularly.   • The   icon message, “Check the air filter for dirt,” is displayed every 100 hours. (If the usage time exceeds 100   hours, this message is displayed for 30 seconds when the image is displayed for the first time after the power is   turned on. The message will be dismissed with any operation.)   • Check out the filter and, if any debris is found, use the following procedure for cleaning.   • Request cleaning and maintenance of a ceiling-mounted unit to your projector dealership.   Unplug the power cord.   Remove the air filter.   Pull out the air filter by taking the catch shown in the figure with   your fingertips.   After turning the projector over, place it carefully. It is   recommended to lay a soft cloth, such as a thick towel, under the   unit to prevent it from shaking or getting scratched.   Clean the filter.   Carefully remove the dust and dirt from the air filter with a   vacuum cleaner or the like.   Replace the air filter.   Notes   • Allowing dirt and dust to build up in the air filter will worsen the air circulation inside the projector, causing the   internal temperature to rise, the projector to stop working or malfunction.   • Insert the air filter all the way in. Leaving gaps will allow dust and dirt to get inside the projector again.   • If the air filter is torn, consult with your dealer about replacing it with a new one. Continuing to use a ripped   filter will allow dust and dirt to get inside the projector.   40   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

This is a characteristic of a lamp, and is not a malfunction. (The lifetime of the lamp   depends on conditions of use.) If this happens, replace it with a new one.   • If the projector is mounted on a ceiling, request lamp replacement to your projector dealership.   • When replacing, always use dedicated lamp “TLPLET1” (sold separately).   • If you have been using the projector, the lamp will be very hot, and may cause burn injuries. Wait   for the lamp to cool (for longer than one hour) before replacing it.   • If the lamp should break, please handle with care to avoid injury due to broken pieces (see   p.8)   and contact your dealer for repair service.   Notes   • “Lamp time” in the “Status display” menu indicates the time of lamp use (as a rough guide).   • When “Standard” is set for the lamp power mode in the “Default setting” menu, replace the lamp after 2,000   hours of use as a guide. Using the unit with the “Low” lamp power mode extends the lifetime of the lamp.   • The lamp may stop lighting before the Lamp time reaches the hours as a guide or before a replacement   message appears.   G Lamp replacement messages   • This unit displays lamp replacement messages at appropriate timings depending on the total time of   lamp usage in the “Standard” or “Low” lamp power mode.   • The message, “Lamp life is approaching the end. Replace the lamp in earlier time,” starts appearing   whenever you turn on the power from 100 hours before the replacement deadline. The message will   be dismissed either after 30 seconds or with any operation.   • Once the lamp has reached the replacement deadline, the message, “Lamp life has ended. Replace   the lamp immediately,” appears whenever you turn on the power. The message will be dismissed   with any operation. The power is turned off automatically about seven minutes after the message   appears (the LAMP indicator remains on in orange during that period).   Unplug the power cord.   Wait until the lamp is sufficiently cooled.   Wait for at least one hour.   Remove the tilt stand.   Follow the instructions in “Removing the tilt stand” (see   p.39) to remove the tilt stand.   42   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

If it is not attached correctly, the lamp will not come on   (see   p.45).   • Always replace the lamp with a new one.   • The lamp is made out of glass. Do not touch the glass surface with your bare hands, bang it, or scratch it.   (Dirt, jolts, scratches and the like could break the lamp.)   G Used lamps   This projector’s lamps contain trace amounts of environmentally harmful inorganic mercury.

If the lamp overheats, it may fail to light. Unplugging the power cord repeatedly when the tempera-   ture is high will shorten the life of the lamp. (Even if you are not concerned about lamp lifetime, the light may   not come on if you do not wait for at least three minutes.)   45   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.
