Safety Precaution  
Before operating this projector, read this manual thoroughly  
and operate the projector properly.  
WARNING : TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC  
SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE  
TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.  
This projector provides many convenient features and  
functions. Operating the projector properly enables you to  
manage those features and maintain it in better condition for a  
considerable time.  
– This projector produces intense light from the projection  
lens. Do not stare directly into the lens as much as  
possible. Eye damage could result. Be especially careful  
that children do not stare directly into the beam.  
Improper operation may result in not only shortening the  
product life, but also malfunctions, fire hazard, or other  
accidents.  
– Install the projector in a proper position. If not, it may result  
in a fire hazard.  
If your projector seems to operate improperly, read this  
manual again, check operations and cable connections and try  
the solutions in the “Troubleshooting” section in the end of  
this booklet. If the problem still persists, contact the dealer  
where you purchased the projector or the service center.  
– Provide appropriate space on the top, sides and rear of the  
projector cabinet for allowing air circulation and cooling the  
projector. Minimum clearances must be maintained. If the  
projector is to be built into a compartment or similarly  
enclosed, the minimum distances must be maintained. Do  
not cover the ventilation slot on the projector. Heat build-up  
can reduce the service life of your projector, and can also  
be dangerous.

Maintenance and Cleaning  
Cleaning the RGB panels  
Blemishes such as dust and dirt on the internal optical components of the projector tend to degrade the brightness of the  
screen and are likely to appear as a shadow on the screen, which can lead to deterioration of image quality.  
This projector is equipped with the RGB panel cleaning holes on the underside for cleaning of the internal parts (such as  
optical components) of the projector. When you use the projector for a lengthy period of time or a shadow of dust appears  
on the projected screen, clean the inside of the projector.  
Using the supplied air blower and with the Cleaning function in the Setting Menu (p.38), you can remove the dusts from the  
projector.  
Note:  
• Dust might not be removed completely with these steps. In that case, contact the dealer where you purchased the projector or service center.  
CAUTION IN USING THE AIR BLOWER AND THE NOZZLE  
Turn the projector over when using the blower.  
Use only the supplied air blower and nozzle to keep the projector from being out of oder or  
CAUTION  
damaged. We could not guarantee the malfunction or breakage caused by other tools.  
Never use a commercially available compressed air duster. It causes the interior of the projector to  
malfunction with release of cold liquid propellant.  
Put the projector on a soft cloth to prevent scratching the surface.  
Open the hole cover only when you clean the inside of the projector.  
PROHIBITED  
Do not look into the holes. A strong light could damage your eyes. (Do not look into the Air intake  
vent and Exhaust vent, either.)  
Use the blower and nozzle only to clean the projector. Do not attempt to use them for other  
purposes. Do not use the blower and nozzle against persons (particularly to eyes, mouth or ear, and  
so on). Be especially careful to ensure that children do not put the blower and nozzle into their  
mouth and swallow them.  
Do not attempt to pull the nozzle out of the blower. If the nozzle happened to be pulled out, put it  
back into the blower immediately.  
Do not use the blower supplied with this projector (Z4) to clean the Z3 and Z1X.  
In the unlikely event that something goes wrong (smoke, a strange sound, an abnormal odor, and such) while you  
are cleaning, turn off and unplug the projector immediately, then call the dealer where you purchased the  
projector or service center.  
If the nozzle is pulled out ....  
Put this end of the  
nozzle into the  
blower.  
The nozzle has the stopper. Put the stopper-side of the nozzle into  
the blower. Put the nozzle firmly into the blower until the stopper  
becomes invisible.  
When putting the nozzle into the blower, hold near the stopper so  
that it will not break.  
Put the nozzle in  
until the stopper  
becomes invisible.  
Make sure not to attempt to pull the nozzle out of the blower.

nozzle further in, or it  
could break and be  
stuck inside of the  
projector.  
Which hole to put the nozzle in?  
When you look at the screen:  
When red spots (dust) are particularly noticeable, put the  
nozzle into the R panel cleaning holes.  
When green spots (dust) are particularly noticeable, put  
the nozzle into the G panel cleaning holes.  
When blue spots (dust) are particularly noticeable, put the  
nozzle into the B panel cleaning holes.

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.  
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.  
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.  
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 projector’s 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.
