To the Owner  
Safety Precaution  
Before operating this projector, read this manual thoroughly  
and operate the projector properly.  
This projector provides many convenient features and  
functions. Operating the projector properly enables you to  
manage those features and maintain it in good condition for  
many years to come.  
Improper operation may result in not only shortening the  
product life, but also malfunctions, fire hazard, or other  
accidents.  
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 back of  
this manual. If the problem still persists, contact the dealer  
where you purchased the projector or the service center.  
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC  
SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE  
TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.  
– This projector produces intense light from the projection  
lens. Avoid staring directly into the lens as much as  
possible, otherwise eye damage could result. Be especially  
careful that children do not stare directly into the beam.  
– Install the projector in a proper position. Otherwise it may  
result in fire hazard.  
– Allowing the proper amount of space on the top, sides, and  
rear of the projector cabinet is critical for proper air  
circulation and cooling of the unit. The dimensions shown  
here indicate the minimum space required. If the projector  
is to be built into a compartment or similarly enclosed, these  
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.

Safety Instructions  
All the safety and operating instructions should be read before  
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

may be damaged by persons walking on it.  
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the projector.  
For added protection to the projector during 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.

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

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 has 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.40), you can remove the dusts from the  
projector.  
Note:  
• Dust might not be removed completely with these steps. Then 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  
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.  
CAUTION  
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.  
Do not look into the holes. A strong light could damage your eyes. (Do not look into the Air intake  
vent and Exhaust vent, too.)  
PROHIBITED  
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 ears).  
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 (model: Z60) to clean the other models: Z4, Z3,  
and Z1X.  
If something is wrong with the projector (such as smoke, a strange sound, or an abnormal odor) 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.  
Be sure not to try to pull the nozzle out of the blower.

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.
