I If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro-
tection circuit will automatically put the pro-
jector into standby mode to prevent overheat
damage. This does not indicate a malfunc-
tion. (See pages 52 and 53.) Remove the pro-
jector power cord from the wall outlet and wait
at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where
the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked,
plug the power cord back in and turn on the
projector. This will return the projector to the
normal operating condition.

from the vent may appear when the power is
first turned on. This is normal and is not a
malfunction. It will disappear after the projec-
tor is used for a while.

•
The cooling fan regulates the internal tem-
perature, and its performance is automatically
controlled. The sound of the fan may change
during projector operation due to changes in
the fan speed. This does not indicate mal-
function.
Do not unplug the power cord during projec-
tion or cooling fan operation. This can cause
damage due to rise in internal temperature,
as the cooling fan also stops.
I When connecting a computer or other audio-
visual equipment to the projector, make the
connections AFTER unplugging the power
cord of the projector from the AC outlet and
turning off the equipment to be connected.
I Please read the user guides of the projector
and the equipment to be connected for in-
structions on how to make the connections.

When connecting to equipment with HDMI output teminal (HDMI)
HDMI is a new specialized interface capable of delivering a video and audio signal to
the terminal using just one cable. Since this projector does not support an audio signal
by itself, use an amplifier or other audio device.
For video connection, use a cable that conforms to HDMI standards. Using cables that
do not conform to HDMI standards may result in a malfunction.

Note
• HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a digital AV interface that can deliver a high-defini-
tion video signal, multi-channel audio signal, and bi-directional control signal all in just one cable.
• Because it is compatible with the HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) system, the
digital video signal does not degrade when transmitted, and a high-quality image with a simple
connection can be enjoyed.
• When a DVI to HDMI conversion cable is connected to the HDMI terminal, a proper picture may not
be displayable.

Selecting the Type of
Correction
Note
• When corrections are made with Keystone cor-
rection, the changes are saved even if the
power cord is unplugged.
• Since Keystone correction digitally corrects
the signal, resolution may slightly decrease
when it is used. Moiré patterns and line dis-
tortions may also be visible in detailed images.
However, this is not a malfunction.
Select the Keystone correction method.
Press cKEYSTONE on the remote control.
• “GEOMETRIC ADJUSTMENT” will be
displayed.
• Each time c KEYSTONE is pressed, the
display toggles as follows:
• If you cannot correct trapezoidal distortion with
Keystone correction, change the placement
position of the projector.

About Copyrights
• When using the ASPECT function to select an image size with a different aspect ratio
to a TV program or video image, the image will look different from its original appear-
ance. Keep this in mind while choosing an image size.
• The use of the Aspect, Keystone Correction, Subtitle, or Overscan function to com-
press or stretch the image for commercial purposes/public displays in a café, hotel,
etc. may be an infringement of copyright protected by law for copyright holders. Please
use caution.
• While watching non-widescreen images (4:3), if you use the ASPECT function to fill
the screen or use the Overscan function to change the aspect ratio of a fixed-ratio
input signal, parts of the outer edge of the image will be cut off or distorted. To watch
original images as the producers intended, set ASPECT to “NORMAL” and Overscan
to its default setting.

Maintenance
Cleaning the projector
Cleaning the lens
I Ensure that you have unplugged the power
cord before cleaning the projector.
I The cabinet as well as the operation panel is
made of plastic. Avoid using benzene or
thinner, as these can damage the finish on the
cabinet.
I Use a commercially available blower or lens
cleaning paper (for glasses and camera lenses)
for cleaning the lens. Do not use any liquid type
cleaning agents, as they may wear off the
coating film on the surface of the lens.
I As the surface of the lens can easily get
damaged, be sure not to scrape or hit the lens.
I Do not use volatile agents such as insecticides
on the projector.
Do not attach rubber or plastic items to the
projector for long periods.
The effects of some of the agents in the plastic
may cause damage to the quality or finish of the
projector.
I Wipe off dirt gently with a soft flannel cloth.
I When the dirt is hard to remove, soak a cloth in
a mild detergent diluted with water, wring the
cloth well and then wipe the projector.
Strong cleaning detergents may discolor, warp
or damage the coating on the projector. Make
sure to test on a small, inconspicuous area on
the projector before use.

Info
• If the temperature warning indicator illuminates, and the projector enters standby mode, follow the
possible solutions above and then wait until the projector has cooled down completely before plug-
ging in the power cord and turning the power back on. (At least 10 minutes.)
• If the power is turned off for a brief moment due to power outage or some other cause while using
the projector, and the power supply recovers immediately after that, the lamp indicator will illumi-
nate in red and the lamp may not be lit. In this case, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet,
replace the power cord in the AC outlet and then turn the power on again.
• The cooling fan keeps the internal temperature of the projector constant and this function is con-
trolled automatically. The sound of the cooling fan may change during operation because the fan
speed may change and this is not a malfunction.
• Do not unplug the power cord after the projector has entered standby mode and while the cooling
fan is running. The cooling fan runs for about 90 seconds.

Regarding the Lamp
Lamp
I It is recommended that the lamp (sold separately) be replaced when the remaining lamp life becomes
5% or less, or when you notice a significant deterioration in the picture and color quality. The lamp life
(percentage) can be checked with the on-screen display. (see page 49)
I Purchase a replacement lamp of type LU4001VP from your place of purchase, nearest Marantz
Authorized Dealer or Service Center.
Caution Concerning the Lamp
I This projector utilizes a pressurized mercury lamp. A loud sound may indicate lamp failure. Lamp
failure can be attributed to numerous sources such as: excessive shock, improper cooling, surface
scratches or deterioration of the lamp due to a lapse of usage time.
The period of time up to failure largely varies depending on the individual lamp and/or the condition
and the frequency of use. It is important to note that failure can often result in the bulb cracking.
I When the lamp replacement indicator and on-screen display icon are illuminated, it is recommended
that the lamp be replaced with a new one immediately, even if the lamp appears to be operating
normally.
I Should the lamp break, there is also a possibility that glass particles may spread inside of the
projector. In such a case, it is recommended you contact your nearest Marantz Authorized Dealer or
Service Center to assure safe operation.
I Should the lamp break, the glass particles may spread inside the lamp cage or gas contained in the
lamp may be vented into the room from the exhaust vent. Because the gas in this lamp includes
mercury, ventilate the room well if the lamp breaks and avoid all exposure to the released gas. In case
of exposure to the gas, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
Replacing the Lamp
• Do not remove the lamp unit from the projector right after use. The lamp will be very hot and may
cause burn or injury.
I Carefully change the lamp by following the instructions described in this section. * If you wish,
you may have the lamp replaced at your nearest Marantz Authorized Dealer or Service Center.
*
If the new lamp does not light after replacement, take your projector to the nearest Marantz Authorized
Dealer or Service Center.
