Important safety instructions  
Your projector is designed and tested to meet the latest standards for safety of information  
technology equipment. However, to ensure safe use of this product, it is important that you  
follow the instructions mentioned in this manual and marked on the product.  
Safety Instructions  
1.  
Please read this manual before you operate your projector. Save it for future  
reference.  
2.  
Do not look straight at the projector lens during operation. The intense light beam  
may damage your eyes.  
3.  
4.  
Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.  
Always open the lens shutter or remove the lens cap when the projector lamp is  
on.  
5.  
In some countries, the line voltage is NOT stable. This projector is designed to operate  
safely within a mains voltage between 100 to 240 volts AC, but could fail if power  
cuts or surges of ±10 volts occur. In areas where the mains voltage may fluctuate  
or cut out, it is recommended that you connect your projector through a power  
stabilizer, surge protector or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).  
Do not block the projection lens with any objects when the projector is under  
operation as this could cause the objects to become heated and deformed or even  
cause a fire. To temporarily turn off the lamp, press BLANK on the projector or  
remote control.  
6.  
7.  
8.  
9.  
The lamp becomes extremely hot during operation. Allow the projector to cool for  
approximately 45 minutes prior to removing the lamp assembly for replacement.  
Do not operate lamps beyond the rated lamp life. Excessive operation of lamps  
beyond the rated life could cause them to break on rare occasions.  
Never replace the lamp assembly or any electronic components unless the projector is  
unplugged.  
10. Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall,  
sustaining serious damage.  
11. Do not attempt to disassemble this projector. There are dangerous high voltages inside  
which may cause death if you should come into contact with live parts. The only user  
serviceable part is the lamp which has its own removable cover.  
Under no circumstances should you ever undo or remove any other covers. Refer  
servicing only to suitably qualified professional service personnel.  
12. Do not place this projector in any of the following environments.  
- Space that is poorly ventilated or confined. Allow at least 50 cm clearance from walls  
and free flow of air around the projector.  
- Locations where temperatures may become excessively high, such as the inside of a  
car with all windows rolled up.  
- Locations where excessive humidity, dust, or cigarette smoke may contaminate optical  
components, shortening the projector's life span and darkening the picture.  
- Locations near fire alarms  
- Locations with an ambient temperature above 40°C / 104°F  
- Locations where the altitudes are higher than 3000 m (10000 feet).

13. Do not block the ventilation holes. If the ventilation holes are seriously obstructed,  
overheating inside the projector may result in a fire.  
- Do not place this projector on a blanket, bedding or any other soft surface.  
- Do not cover this projector with a cloth or any other item.  
- Do not place inflammables near the projector.  
14. Always place the projector on a level, horizontal surface during operation.  
- Do not use if tilted at an angle of more than 10 degrees left to right, nor at angle of  
more than 15 degrees front to back. Using the projector when it is not fully horizontal  
may cause a malfunction of, or damage to, the lamp.  
15. Do not stand the projector on end vertically. Doing so may cause the projector to fall  
over, causing injury or resulting in damage to the projector.  
16. Do not step on the projector or place any objects upon it. Besides probable physical  
damage to the projector, doing so may result in accidents and possible injury.  
17. Do not place liquids near or on the projector. Liquids spilled into the projector may  
cause it to fail. If the projector does become wet, disconnect it from the power  
supply's wall socket and call your local service center to have the projector serviced.  
18. This product is capable of displaying inverted pictures for ceiling mount installation.  
Use only qualified ceiling mount kit for mounting the projector and ensure it is  
securely installed.  
19. When the projector is under operation, you may sense some heated air and odor from  
its ventilation grill. It is a normal phenomenon and not a product defect.  
20. Do not use the Security bar for transporting or installation. It should be used with a  
commercially available theft prevention cable.  
Safety instructions for ceiling mounting of the  
projector  
We want you to have a pleasant experience using your projector, so we need to bring this  
safety matter to your attention to prevent damage to person and property.  
If you intend to mount your projector on the ceiling, we strongly recommend that you use a  
proper fitting projector ceiling mount kit and that you ensure it is securely and safely  
installed.  
If you use an inappropriate projector ceiling mount kit, there is a safety risk that the  
projector may fall from the ceiling due to an improper attachment through the use of the  
wrong gauge or length screws.  
You can purchase a projector ceiling mount kit from the place you purchased your projector.  
We recommends that you also purchase a separate Kensington lock compatible security  
cable and attach it securely to both the Kensington lock slot on the projector and the base of  
the ceiling mount bracket. This will perform the secondary role of restraining the projector  
should its attachment to the mounting bracket become loose.

There is 3% tolerance among these numbers due to optical component variations. It is  
recommended that if you intend to permanently install the projector, you should physically  
test the projection size and distance using the actual projector in situ before you permanently  
install it, so as to make allowance for this projector's optical characteristics. This will help you  
determine the exact mounting position so that it best suits your installation location.

Connecting Video source devices  
You can connect your projector to various Video source devices that provide any one of the  
following output sockets:  
Component Video  
S-Video  
Video (composite)  
You need only connect the projector to a Video source device using just one of the above  
connecting methods, however each provides a different level of video quality. The method  
you choose will most likely depend upon the availability of matching terminals on both the  
projector and the Video source device as described below:  
Best video quality  
The best available video connection method is Component Video (not to be confused with  
composite Video). Digital TV tuner and DVD players output Component Video natively, so  
if available on your devices, this should be your connection method of choice in preference  
to (composite) Video.  
projector to a component video device.  
Better video quality  
The S-Video method provides a better quality analog video than standard composite Video.  
If you have both composite Video and S-Video output terminals on your Video source  
device, you should elect to use the S-Video option.  
See "Connecting an S-Video source device" on page 17 for how to connect the projector to  
an S-Video device.  
Least video quality  
Composite Video is an analog video and will result in a perfectly acceptable, but less than  
optimal result from your projector, being the least video quality of the available methods  
described here.  
projector to a composite Video device.  
Connecting audio  
The projector has one built-in mono speaker which is designed to provide basic audio  
functionality accompanying data presentations for business purposes only. They are not  
designed for, nor intended for stereo audio reproduction use as might be expected in home  
theater or home cinema applications. Any stereo audio input (if provided), is mixed into a  
common mono audio output through the projector speaker.  
If you wish, you can make use of the projector (mixed mono) speaker in your presentations,  
and also connect separate amplified speakers to the Audio Out socket of the projector. The  
audio output is a mixed mono signal and controlled by the projector Volume and Mute  
settings.  
If you have a separate sound system, you will most likely want to connect the audio output  
of your Video source device to that sound system, instead of to the mono audio projector.

Selecting the aspect ratio  
The 'aspect ratio' is the ratio of the image width to the image height. Most analog TV and  
computers are in 4:3 ratio, which is the default for this projector, and digital TV and DVDs  
are usually in 16:9 ratio.  
With the advent of digital signal processing, digital display devices like this projector can  
dynamically stretch and scale the image output to a different aspect than that of the image  
input signal.

Using Screen Color  
In the situation where you are projecting onto a colored surface such as a painted wall which  
may not be white, the Screen Color feature can help correct the projected picture’s colors to  
prevent possible color difference between the source and projected pictures.  
To use this function, go to the DISPLAY > Screen Color menu and press  
/
to select a  
color which is closest to the color of the projection surface. There are several precalibrated  
colors to choose from: Whiteboard, Greenboard, and Blackboard.  
This function is only available when a PC type input signal is selected.  
Fine-tuning the image quality in user modes  
According to the detected signal type, there are some user-definable functions available  
when User 1 or User 2 mode is selected. You can make adjustments to these functions  
based on your needs.  
Adjusting Brightness  
Highlight the PICTURE > Brightness menu and press  
/
.
The higher the value, the brighter the image. And the  
lower the setting, the darker the image. Adjust this  
control so the black areas of the image appear just as  
black and that detail in the dark areas is visible.

Adjusting Color

Lower setting produces less saturated colors. If the setting is too high, colors on the image  
will be overpowering, which makes the image unrealistic.  
Adjusting Tint  
Highlight the PICTURE > Tint menu and press  
/
.
The higher the value, the more reddish the picture becomes. The lower the value, the more  
greenish the picture becomes.  
Adjusting Sharpness  
Highlight the PICTURE > Sharpness menu and press  
/
.
The higher the value, the sharper the picture becomes. The lower the value, the softer the  
picture becomes.  
Adjusting Brilliant Color  
Highlight the PICTURE > Brilliant Color menu and press  
/
.
This feature utilizes a new color-processing algorithm and system level enhancements to  
enable higher brightness while providing truer, more vibrant colors in the projected picture.  
It enables a greater than 50% brightness increase in mid-tone images, which are common in  
video and natural scenes, so the projector reproduces images in realistic and true colors. If  
you prefer images with that quality, select On. If you don’t need it, select Off.  
When Off is selected, the Color Temperature function is not available.  
Selecting a Color Temperature  
Highlight the PICTURE > Color Temperature menu and press  
/
.
The options available for color temperature* settings vary according to the signal type  
selected.  
1.  
T1: With the highest color temperature, T1 makes the image appear the most bluish  
white than other settings.  
2.  
3.  
4.  
T2: Makes images appear bluish white.  
T3: Maintains normal colorings for white.  
T4: Makes images appear reddish white.  
*About color temperatures:  
There are many different shades that are considered to be "white" for various purposes. One  
of the common methods of representing white color is known as the “color temperature”. A  
white color with a low color temperature appears to be reddish white. A white color with a  
high color temperature appears to have more blue in it.

Color Management  
Only in permanent installations with controlled lighting levels such as boardrooms, lecture  
theaters, or home theaters, should color management be considered. Color management  
provides fine color control adjustment to allow for more accurate color reproduction, should  
you require it.  
If you have purchased a test disc which contains various color test patterns and can be used  
to test the color presentation on monitors, TVs, projectors, etc., you can project any image  
from the disc on the screen and enter the Color Management menu to make adjustments.  
To adjust the settings:  
1.  
2.  
Go to the DISPLAY menu and highlight Color Management.  
Press MODE/ENTER on the projector or Enter on the remote control and the Color  
Management page is displayed.

other.  
Yellow  
GREEN  
RED  
For example, if you select Red and set its  
range at 0, only pure red in the projected

. Every adjustment made will reflect to the  
image immediately.  
For example, if you select Red and set its value at 0, only the saturation of pure red  
will be affected.  
Saturation is the amount of that color in a video picture. Lower settings produce less  
saturated colors; a setting of “0” removes that color from the image entirely. If the saturation  
is too high, that color will be overpowering and unrealistic.  
6.  
Press to highlight Gain and adjust its values to your preference by pressing

.
The contrast level of the primary color you select will be affected. Every adjustment  
made will reflect to the image immediately.

Maintenance  
Care of the projector  
Your projector needs little maintenance. The only thing you need to do on a regular basis is  
to keep the lens clean.  
Never remove any parts of the projector except the lamp. Contact your dealer if other parts  
need replacing.  
Cleaning the lens  
Clean the lens whenever you notice dirt or dust on the surface.  
Use a canister of compressed air to remove dust.  
If there is dirt or smears, use lens-cleaning paper or moisten a soft cloth with lens  
cleaner and gently wipe the lens surface.  
CAUTION  
Never rub the lens with abrasive materials.  
Cleaning the projector case  
Before you clean the case, turn the projector off using the proper shutdown procedure as  
described in "Shutting down the projector" on page 35 and unplug the power cord.  
To remove dirt or dust, wipe the case with a soft, lint-free cloth.  
To remove stubborn dirt or stains, moisten a soft cloth with water and a neutral pH  
detergent. Then wipe the case.  
CAUTION  
Never use wax, alcohol, benzene, thinner or other chemical detergents. These can damage the  
case.  
Storing the projector  
If you need to store the projector for an extended time, please follow the instructions below:  
Make sure the temperature and humidity of the storage area are within the  
recommended range for the projector. Please refer to "Specifications" on page 51 or
