the product is operated.  
This projector should be operated only from the type of power  
source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of  
the type of power supplied, consult your authorized dealer or  
local power company.  
Read all of the instructions given here and retain them for later  
use. Unplug this projector from AC power supply before  
cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp  
cloth for cleaning.  
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can  
result in fire or electric shock. Do not allow anything to rest on  
the power cord. Do not locate this projector where the cord  
may be damaged by persons walking on it.  
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the projector.  
For added protection to the projector during a lightning storm,  
or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of  
time, unplug it from the wall outlet. This will prevent damage  
due to lightning and power line surges.  
Do not attempt to service this projector yourself as opening or  
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or  
other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service  
personnel.  
Unplug this projector from wall outlet and refer servicing to  
qualified service personnel under the following conditions:  
a. When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.  
b. If liquid has been spilled into the projector.  
Do not expose this unit to rain or use near water... for  
example, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, etc...  
Do not use attachments not recommended by the  
manufacturer as they may cause hazards.  
c. If the projector has been exposed to rain or water.  
d. If the projector does not operate normally by following the  
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are  
covered by the operating instructions as improper  
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will  
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to  
restore the projector to normal operation.  
e. If the projector has been dropped or the cabinet has been  
damaged.  
f. When the projector exhibits a distinct change in  
performance-this indicates a need for service.

The projector may fall, causing serious injury to a child or  
adult, and serious damage to the projector. Use only with a  
cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with  
the projector. Wall or shelf mounting should follow the  
manufacturer's instructions, and should use a mounting kit  
approved by the manufacturers.  
An appliance and cart combination should  
be moved with care. Quick stops,  
excessive force, and uneven surfaces  
may cause the appliance and cart  
combination to overturn.  
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service  
technician has used replacement parts specified by the  
manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the  
original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,  
electric shock, or injury to persons.  
Upon completion of any service or repairs to this projector, ask  
the service technician to perform routine safety checks to  
determine that the projector is in safe operating condition.  
Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are  
provided for ventilation, to insure reliable operation of the  
equipment and to protect it from overheating.  
The openings should never be covered with cloth or other  
materials, and the bottom opening should not be blocked by  
placing the projector on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar  
surface. This projector should never be placed near or over a  
radiator or heat register.  
This projector should not be placed in a built-in installation  
such as a book case unless proper ventilation is provided.

MANUAL PC ADJUSTMENT  
This projector can automatically tune to display signals from most personal computers currently distributed. However, some  
computers employ special signal formats which are different from standard ones and may not be tuned by Multi-Scan system  
of this projector. If this happens, projector cannot reproduce a proper image and image may be recognized as a flickering  
picture, a non-synchronized picture, a non-centered picture or a skewed picture.  
This projector has a Manual PC Adjustment to enable you to precisely adjust several parameters to match with those special  
signal formats. This projector has 5 independent memory areas to memorize those parameters manually adjusted. This  
enables you to recall setting for a specific computer whenever you use it.

APPENDIX  
ORDER REPLACEMENT LAMP  
Replacement Lamp can be ordered through your dealer. When ordering a Projection Lamp, give the  
following information to the dealer.  
G Model No. of your projector  
:
:
PLC-EF31/EF31NL/EF31N  
G Replacement Lamp Type No.  
POA-LMP39  
(Service Parts No. 610 292 4848)  
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.  
G Lamp lifetime may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no  
guarantee of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their lifetime in a  
shorter period of time than other similar lamps.  
G 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.  
G A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its  
lifetime draws to an end. 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 BE TAKEN.  
If a lamp explodes, disconnect the projectors 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.
