IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS  
Save Original Packing Materials  
The original shipping carton and packing materials will come in handy if you ever have to  
ship your projector. For maximum protection, repack the set as it was originally packed at  
the factory.  
Moisture Condensation  
Never operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a warm location.  
When the unit is exposed to such a change in temperature, moisture may condense on  
the crucial internal parts. To prevent the unit from possible damage, do not use the unit for  
at least 2 hours when there is an extreme or sudden change in temperature  
.
Place and Manner of Installation  
Do not place in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could cause  
malfunction, and shorten the life of the projector.  
Avoid locations with oil or cigarette smoke. Doing so will dirty the optical parts,  
shortening their lives, and darkening the screen.  
• Do not use the product vertically in any upright position or slantwise in an angle of 20  
degrees or more.  
Using this instrument near a TV or radio may cause interference to the images or audio  
sound. If this happens, move it away from the TV or radio.  
Moving the projector from a low-temperature room to a high-temperature room may  
cause condensation on the lens or internal parts in the instrument. If you continue to use  
it in that situation, the malfunction may result. Ensure to wait until the condensation  
naturally disappears.  
In a high altitude location where air is thin, cooling efficiency is reduced so use it with the  
ambient temperature being lowered.

IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS (Continued)  
Avoid Volatile Liquid  
Do not use volatile liquids, such as an insect spray, near the unit. Do not leave rubber or  
plastic products touching the unit for a long time. They will leave marks on the finish.  
If cleaning with a chemically saturated cloth, be sure to follow the product's precautions.  
In the spaces provided below, record the Model and Serial No. located at the bottom of your

REMOTE CONTROL BATTERIES  
Caution  
Never throw batteries into a fire.  
Notes  
Be sure to use AA batteries.  
Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area.  
Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of battery disposal.  
Do not mix different battery types or combine used batteries with new ones.  
If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the operating range becomes  
reduced, replace both batteries with new ones.  
If the batteries are dead or if you will not be using the remote control for a long time,  
remove the batteries to prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.  
Using the batteries improperly may cause them to explode or leak and lead to burn or injury. If  
battery-leaking fluid contacts skin, wash the fluid off immediately with clean water and consult a  
doctor. If the fluid is spilt on an instrument, avoid contact and wipe it off using tissue paper.  
(Dispose of the used tissue paper as flammable garbage after moistening with water.)

WARNING  
• Always obey the instructions listed in IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS when placing the unit.  
Attempting to clean/replace the lamp at a high site by yourself may cause you to drop down, thus  
resulting in injury.  
• If you wish to mount the projector on the ceiling, be sure to ask your dealer to do so. Mounting the  
projector on a ceiling requires special ceiling brackets (sold separately) and specialized knowledge.  
Improper mounting could cause the projector to fall, resulting in an accident.  
• If the projector is ceiling-mounted, install the breaker for turning off the power in case of anomaly. Let  
everyone involved with the use of the projector know that fact.

• If you want to feed the digital RGB signal, separately available DVI cable is needed.  
• If you are using the digital RGB signal for input to this unit, some computer models or a  
certain type of DVI cable may cause on rare occasions noise on the screen. If such is a  
case, decrease your computer’s refresh rate or the resolution. It is also recommended to  
use a DVI cable in 2 m or less in length.

Maintenance  
About lamp  
The product’s light source is a mercury lamp that lights at increased internal pressure. Be sure  
to fully understand the following characteristics of the lamp and handle it with extreme care.  
• The lamp may explode with a loud noise due to impact or deterioration, or fail to light at  
the expiration of its life.  
• How long it takes before the lamp explodes or the life expires may vary greatly by lamp.  
Some may explode shortly after first use. (Free replacement is available if the lamp  
explodes within the warranty period. Contact the dealer from whom you purchased the  
product in such a case.)  
Lamp rupture is more likely to happen if the lamp is used after the recommended  
replacement period has elapsed.  
• When the lamp explodes, the broken pieces of glass may get inside the product or be  
released outside from the openings for ventilation.  
• When the lamp explodes, a slight amount of mercury gas enclosed in the lamp along  
with glass dust may be released from the openings for ventilation.  
Immediately replace the lamp when a sign appears on the screen.  
• When the replacement time approaches, a message will appear on the screen.  
The risk of explosion will increase if the lamp is continuously used without being replaced.  
• Frequently check the used hours and prepare spares when the replacement time  
p.32  
approaches. (Refer to “Status display”.  
)
When the lamp is broken  
• If glass components, including a lamp and a lens, should break, handle the broken  
pieces with care to avoid injury and contact your dealer for repair service.  
• In the event of lamp explosion, unplug the product from the wall outlet, leave and  
completely ventilate the room. Then, thoroughly clean the area around the projector and  
discard any edible items placed in that area.  
Lamp replacement  
A lamp is consumable supplies. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and  
the lamp could burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The lifetime  
of the lamp depends on condition of use.) If this happens, replace it with a new one  
.
WARNING  
If the projector is mounted on a ceiling, request a lamp replacement from your projector dealership.  
• When replacing, always use lamp “TLPLMT20” (sold separately).  
CAUTION  
If you have been using the projector, the lamp will be very hot, and may cause burn injuries  
Wait for the lamp to cool (for longer than 1 hour) before replacing it.  
If the lamp should break, please handle with care to avoid injury due to broken pieces and  
contact your dealer for repair service.

when you press button.  
• Attach the lamp cover correctly so that it is not loose. If it is not attached correctly, the  
p.36  
lamp may fail to come on  
, and the lamp’s lifetime may be shortened.  
• Always replace the lamp with a new one.  
• The lamp is made out of glass. Do not touch the glass surface with your bare hands,  
bang it, or scratch it. (Dirt, jolts, scratches and the like could break the lamp.)
