Major Features
High Image Quality
Use of a Digital Micromirror Device (DMDTM) chip that is based on
Texas Instrument's Digital Light Processing (DLPTM) technology
enables images of high contrast and high detail.
Ⅵ DLP technology gives rise to devices that exhibit high response
speed, which in turn enables excellent moving picture character-
istics and smooth images.
Ⅵ Use of a high-performance progressive scan converter provides
reproduction of film-like images.
Ⅵ Built-in color filters of high purity permit the reproduction of vivid
color images.
Quiet Design
PLUS Vision Corporation's quiet design technology has resulted
in a great reduction of fan noise which allows quiet performance
that doesn't interfere with the enjoyment of movie watching in an
indoor environment.
Installation Flexibility
The compact design (of about B5 paper size: 182 x 257 mm / 7.2
x 10.1 inch) and mere 2 kg / 4.4 lbs weight has resulted in a pro-
jector that can be carried anywhere indoors for room-to-room
portability.

Adjustment of the Projection Screen
Operations include the adjustment of the image position that is projected to the screen and the adjustment of the focus as well as
the input selection and the selection of the aspect ratio.
Perform these operations with the power of the connected equipment switched on and the video signal input to the projector.
6 Projection Screen Position Adjustment
Adjust the projection image to the screen
(1) If the image is shifted to the left or right, move the main unit horizontally. (Align the center of the screen and the center of
the lens of the main unit.)
(2) If the image is shifted vertically, move the image up or down with the adjuster.
(3) A projection image such as that illustrated in the diagram is the result of the projector not being perpendicular to the
screen. Set the projector so that it is pointing straight toward the screen.
(4) If the image shows keystone distortion, adjust using menu operations. → Page E-33 "Adjustment of Keystone Distortion"

Replacing the Lamp Cartridge
Ⅵ After the lamp has been operating for 1000 hours or longer, the STATUS indicator
will light and the message "Replace The Lamp" will appear on the screen. Should
this happen, turn off the projector and replace the lamp cartridge with a new one.
The projector will not turn on after 1100 hours.
NOTE: The projector lamp has its usable life.
The rated lamp life is about 1000 hours. How-
ever, it may become shorter depending on the
conditions of usage.
(The rated lamp life is the average life of the
lamps produced and tested, under the test con-
ditions of our company, for a long term.)
Ⅵ Obtain a replacement lamp cartridge at the store where the projector was purchased.
Please specify the following information when ordering a replacement lamp cartridge:
Unit model number: HE-3100L for the exclusive use of HE-3100
Part number: 27-050.

DO NOT TOUCH THE LAMP CARTRIDGE immediately after it has been used. It will be extremely hot.
Ⅵ Do not remove any screws except for those mentioned in the instructions below.
Ⅵ Do not touch the lamp. Doing so may shorten the lamp life.
Ⅵ The lamp may explode if improperly mishandled.
Ⅵ If lamp has reached the end of its usable life, the lamp bulb may shatter. When this happens, an explosive sound can be heard
and pieces of glass may be scattered in the lamp cartridge. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury. If this
happens, contact your dealer or the store where the projector was purchased.

Cleaning
Attention!
* Be certain to disconnect the power plug from the power outlet before cleaning.
* Do not spray or otherwise expose the projector, lens, or screen to volatile substances such as insecticides. Doing so
could cause them to undergo qualitative changes or the coatings may peel, etc.
Cleaning a Soiled Projector Main Unit
* Wipe with a lint-free, soft, dry cloth.
When very dirty, wipe with a cloth that has been moistened with a diluted neutral detergent, then finish with a dry cloth. If a
chemically-treated cloth is going to be used, please follow any written warnings.
* Do not wipe with thinner, benzene, or other solvents. Doing so could cause them to undergo qualitative changes or the coatings
may peel, etc.
* When removing the dust of the outflow and intake holes, use the brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner to clean out the dust.
Avoid using the vacuum directly without attaching the adapter as well as the use of a nozzle adapter.
* Do not scratch or otherwise hit the projector body with your nails or other hard object, since this will cause scratches.
Dirty Lens
The lens surface has been treated with a special coating. Consult your PLUS dealer for cleaning.
Dust of the Intake and Outflow Holes
Dust that collects in the intake and outflow holes will obstruct the ventilation and cause the internal temperature to rise which could
cause damage. Clean this area carefully. As a guideline, clean at least every 100 hours.
* Switch off the power with the ON/STANDBY
button and check that the POWER/ indica-
tor has changed to a steadily lit orange, then
switch off the main power with the POWER
switch of the main unit. Finally, disconnect the
power cord.
* Clean out the holes from the outside using a
vacuum cleaner. Use the brush adapter of the
vacuum cleaner to do this. Avoid using the
vacuum directly without attaching the adapter
as well as the use of a nozzle adapter.

Cleaning the Inside of the Projector
Cleaning of the inside of the projector is required about once a year. Failure to clean over a long period while dust has collected
inside the projector could cause a fire or breakdown. Do not clean the inside of the projector by yourself. Be sure to consult your
PLUS dealer.
