Operating the remote control
•
•
The remote control works with both the
projector's front and rear remote sensors.
The range of the remote sensor on the front and
back is 3 meters with a 60-degree range (30
degrees to the left and right of the remote sensor).
Since the remote control uses infrared light to send
signals to the projector (Class 1 LED), be sure to
use the remote control in an area free from
obstacles that could block the remote control's
output signal to the projector.
•
approximately
3 meters
approximately
3 meters
•
Only use the accompanying remote control. Using other remote controls (even of similiar models) to control the
CP-X385W may result in unexpected operation.
ATTENTION
Precautions to observe when using the remote control
• Do not drop or otherwise expose the remote control to physical impact.
•
Do not get the remote control wet or place it on wet objects. Doing so may result in malfunction.
• Remove the batteries from the remote control and store them in a safe place if you
won't be using the remote control for an extended period.
• Replace the batteries whenever the remote control starts to malfunction.
•
When strong light, such as direct sunlight or light from an extremely close range (such as from an
inverter fluorescent lamp), hits the projector's remote sensor, the remote control may cease to function.
Adjust the direction of the projector to keep light from directly hitting the projector's remote sensor.

NOTES
•
It may not be possible to control notebook PCs, and other computers with built-in pointing devices (e.g.
track balls), using this remote control. In this case, before connecting go into BIOS (system setup) and
select external mouse, and disable the pointing devices. In addition, the mouse may not function if the
computer does not have the needed utility program. See your computer’s hardware manual for details.
The USB control can be used with Windows 95 OSR 2.1 or higher. It may not be possible to
use the remote control, depending on the computer’s configurations and mouse drivers.
The USB control can only be used for the functions listed above. You cannot do things like press two buttons
at once (for instance, pressing two buttons at the same time to move the mouse pointer diagonally).
This function is not available while the lamp is warming up (the POWER indicator flashes green), while adjusting the volume and
display, correcting for trapezoidal distortion, zooming in on the screen, using the BLANK function, or displaying the menu screen.

THE LAMP
HIGH VOLTAGE
HIGH TEMPERATURE
HIGH PRESSURE
Before replacing the lamp, check the serial number of the replacement lamp bulb (sold separately:
DT00431), then contact your local dealer. Before replacing the lamp, turn off the power, and unplug
the power cord, then wait at least 45 minutes, in order to ensure that the lamp is properly cooled.
Removing the lamp bulb while it is still hot could cause burns, or cause the lamp bulb to burst.
The LCD projector uses a glass lamp bulb. It is a mercury lamp with high
WARNING
internal pressure. High-pressure mercury lamps can break with a loud
bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, or through wear over time. Each lamp has a
different lifetime, and some may burst or burn out soon after you start using them. In
addition, when the bulb bursts, it is possible for shards of glass to fly into the lamp housing,
and for gas containing mercury to escape from the projector’s vent holes.
•
•
Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst during use.
7
If the replace lamp indicator (see "Related Messages" (Vol.2
) and "Regarding the
8
indicator Lamps" (Vol.2
)) comes on, replace the lamp as soon as possible. Using the
lamp for long periods of time, or past the replacement date, could cause it to burst. Do
not use old (used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.
•
•
•
If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, it is possible that there are electrical problems
elsewhere besides the lamp. If this happens, contact your local dealer.
If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), ventilate the room well, and make
sure not to breathe the gas that comes out of the projector vents, or get it in your eyes or mouth.
If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), unplug the power cord from
the outlet, and make sure to request a replacement lamp from your local dealer. Note that
shards of glass could damage the projector’s internals, or cause injury during handling, so
please do not try to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.
•
Obey local ordinances when disposing of used lamps. In most cases, it is possible to dispose of used
bulbs in the same manner as used glass bottles, but in some cases, bulbs are sorted separately.
• Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed.

THE LAMP (continued)
Replacing the lamp
All projector lamps will wear out eventually. If used for long periods of time, the image could become
darkened, and the color contrast could be impacted as well. We recommend that you replace your lamps
early. If the LAMP indicator turns red, or a message prompts you to replace the lamp when you power up
the projector, the lamp needs to be replaced. (See "Related Messages" (Vol.2
Indicator Lamps" (Vol.2 ) for details.)

ATTENTION • Make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose screws could result in damage or injury.
• Do not use with lamp cover removed.
•
Do not reset the lamp timer without replacing the lamp. Reset the lamp timer always when replacing
the lamp. The message functions will not operate properly if the lamp timer is not reset correctly.
• When the lamp has been replaced after the message of "CHANGE THE LAMP ...THE POWER
WILL TURN OFF AFTER 0 hr." is displayed, or the LAMP indicator is red, complete the following
operation within 10 minutes of switching power ON.
NOTE
• The LAMP indicator is also red when the lamp unit reaches high temperature.
Before replacing the lamp, switch power OFF, wait approximately 20 minutes, and switch power
ON again. If the LAMP indicator is still red, replace the lamp.

OTHER CARE
Caring for the inside of the projector :
In order to ensure the safe use of your projector, please have it cleaned and inspected by
your local dealer about once every 2 years. Never try to care for the inside of the unit
yourself. Doing so is dangerous.
Caring for the lens :
Lightly wipe the lens with a commercially available lens-cleaning wipe. Do not touch the
lens directly with your hand.
Caring for the cabinet and remote control transmitter :
Wipe lightly with gauze or a soft cloth. If soiling is severe, dip a soft cloth in water or a
neutral cleanser diluted in water, and wipe lightly after wringing well. Then, wipe lightly
with a soft, dry cloth.
ATTENTION • Make sure to turn off the power and unplug the power cord before caring for
the unit. Please carefully read "Safety Instructions" in this manual, in order to care for your projector
correctly.
• Do not use cleaners or chemicals other than those listed above, including benzene and paint
thinner.
• Do not use aerosols or sprays.
• Do not polish or wipe with hard objects.
