Maintenance  
The projector needs proper maintenance. You should keep the lens clean as dust, dirt  
or spots will project on the screen and diminish image quality. If any other parts need  
replacing, contact your dealer or qualified service personnel. When cleaning any part  
of the projector, always switch off and unplug the projector first.  
Warning:  
Never open any of the covers on the projector. Dangerous electrical voltages inside  
the projector can cause severe injury. Do not attempt to service this product yourself.  
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.  
Cleaning the Lens  
Gently wipe the lens with lens cleaning paper. Do not touch the lens with your hands.  
Cleaning the Projector Housing  
Gently wipe with a soft cloth. If dirt and stains are not easily removed, use a soft cloth  
damped with water, or water and neutral detergent, and wipe dry with a soft, dry cloth.  
Cleaning the Air Filter  
The air filter, which is located at the bottom of the projector, should be cleaned after  
every 100 hours of use. If it is not cleaned periodically, it can become clogged with  
dust and prevent the projector from being ventilated properly. This can cause over  
heating and damage the projector.  
To clean the air filter:  
1.  
2.  
3.  
Switch the projector off and unplug the AC  
power cord from the wall socket.  
Remove the air filter cover as the  
illustration shown.  
Clean the air filter.  
To clean the filter, you are advised to  
use a small vacuum cleaner  
designed for computers and other  
office equipment.  
If the dirt is difficult to remove or if the

Replacing the Lamp  
As the projector operates over time, the brightness of the projector lamp gradually  
decreases and the lamp becomes more susceptible to breakage. We recommend  
replacing the lamp if a warning message is displayed. Do not attempt to replace the  
lamp yourself. Contact the qualified service personnel for replacement.  
The lamp becomes high temperature after turning off the projector with the  
power button. If you touch the lamp, you may scald your finger. When you  
replace the lamp, wait for at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool down.  
Do not touch the lamp glass at any time. The lamp may explode due to  
improper handling, including the touching of the lamp glass.  
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.  
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.  
Wear protective gloves and eyeglasses when fixing or detaching the lamp.  
Faster on-off-cycles will damage the lamp and reduce lamp life. Wait at least  
for 5 minutes to turn off the projector after powering on.  
Do not operate the lamp in proximity to paper, cloth, or other combustible  
material nor cover it with such materials. Otherwise it could cause a fire.  
Do not operate the lamp in an atmosphere containing an inflammable  
substance, such as thinner. Otherwise it could cause a fire or explosion.  
Thoroughly ventilate the area or the room when operating the lamp in an  
oxygen atmosphere (in the air). If ozone is inhaled, it could cause headaches,  
nausea, dizziness, etc.  
The inorganic mercury is involved in the lamp. If the lamp bursts, the mercury  
inside the lamp will go out of the projector. Leave the area immediately if the  
lamp shatters while being operated and ventilate the area for at least 30  
minutes in order to avoid the inhalation of mercury fumes. Otherwise it could be  
harmful to user’s health.

Ensure that screws are tightened properly. Screws not tightened fully may  
result in injury or accidents.  
Since the lamp is made of glass, do not drop the unit and do not scratch the  
glass.  
Do not reuse the old lamp. This could cause the lamp to explode.  
Be sure to turn off the projector and unplug the AC power cord before  
replacing the lamp.  
Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed.

Troubleshooting  
Refer to the symptoms and measures listed below before sending the projector  
forrepairs. If the problem persists, contact your local reseller or service center. Please  
refer to "Indicator Messages" as well.  
Start-up problems  
If no lights turn on:  
Be sure that the power cord is securely connected to the projector and the other end  
is plugged into an outlet with power.  
Press the power button again.  
Unplug the power cord and wait for a short while, then plug it in and press the power  
button again.  
Image problems  
If the searching source is displayed:  
Press the Source button one or more times to select another active input source.  
Be sure the external source is turned on and connected.  
For a computer connection, ensure your notebook computer’s external video port is  
turned on. Refer to the computer manual.  
If the image is out of focus:  
Be sure the lens cover is open.  
While displaying the on-screen menu, adjust the focus ring. (The image size should  
not change; if it does, you are adjusting the zoom, not the focus.)  
Check the projection lens to see if it needs cleaning.  
If the image is flickering or unstable for a computer connection:  
Press the Resync button on the control panel.  
Press the Menu button on the control panel or the MENU button on the remote  
control, go to Computer Image and adjust Frequency or Tracking.  
Remote control problems  
If the remote control does not operate:  
Be sure nothing is blocking the remote control receiver on the front or back of the  
projector. Use the remote control within the effective range.  
Aim the remote control at the screen or at the front or back of the projector.  
Move the remote control so it is more directly in front of or behind the projector and  
not as far to the side.
