r Air inlet (filter)
Air is taken in through the filter to cool the light-source
lamp. If the filter is blocked or if something that obstructs
the flow of air is placed around the projector, heat may
build up inside and could cause a fire. For required
space, refer to “Precautions for Installation” on page 15.
CAUTIONS
• Be careful as paper, cloth or soft cushion could be drawn in
if placed nearby. Do not block the filter, or heat may build
up and could cause a fire.
• Clean the filter periodically. For details, refer to “Cleaning
and Replacing the Filter Cover” on page 61. Deposition of
dirt on the filter reduces the cooling effect, causing heat to
build up inside, which could cause a fire or malfunction.
t Opening for replacing the light-source lamp
For replacing the light-source lamp, refer to “Replacing
the Light-Source Lamp” on page 57.
y Fixing foot
u Position selecting screw for ceiling mounting
When using the projector in an upside-down, ceiling-
mounted position (inverted top-to-bottom and right-to-
left), the “position selecting screw for ceiling mounting”
must be turned to switch to ceiling mounting.
This will correct variance in color images (shading),
which otherwise would occur in ceiling mounting.
For more information, refer to “Setting the Position
Selecting Screw for Ceiling Mounting” on page 21.
CAUTION
• To ceiling-mount and adjust the projector, special expertise
and technique are necessary. Be sure to ask your dealer or
specialist to perform this work.

Notes
• For detailed relationship between projection distances and projection screen sizes, refer to Appendix A. The relationships for
both 4:3 and 16:9 ratios are listed there.
• When installing a screen, use a 4:3 aspect-ratio picture.
• (A 16 : 9 aspect-ratio picture is projected based on the width of the range in which a 4:3 aspect-ratio picture is projected.)
• The diagonal length of a 16:9 aspect-ratio screen is about 91.8% that of a 4:3 aspect-ratio screen. This value is only a guide
(reference).
• If sunlight or lamp light strikes the projection screen directly, the picture tends to become pale and dim. Use a curtain or
other means to shield the light.
• Set the projector horizontally on a surface that is within the range of adjustable angles (up/down adjustment angle: +7° ;
horizontal adjustment angle: ±1.5°).
• If the keystone is adjusted, the projected screen becomes smaller.
• When hanging from the ceiling, use a dedicated hanging fixture (not supplied).

Be sure that the computer to be used suffices the following conditions:
• The computer has the video signal output port.
Be sure that the computer has the video signal output port by reading the instruction book of the computer.
The video signal output port is generally called as “RGB port”, “monitor port”, or “video port”. If the computer-monitor hybrid
type or note type is used, it may need to prepare for an external output port. Also, there will be the type to which an external
output port cannot be installed.
• The resolution and the scanning frequencies are within the range specified in the table on page 23.
Be sure that the resolution and the scanning frequencies of the video signal are within the range. A video signal out of range
cannot be used. (Even signals out of the range could be projected. However, it may not sharp enough. On the other hand,
even some of the signals within the range may require adjustment depending on the video board used.)
When a signal other than listed in the table on page 23 is input, the image could be partially erased or an unneeded fold-over
image could appear.
Even signals in the frequency range that can be input may not be displayed normally depending on the type of the signal.

CAUTIONS
Screw
• If the projector is set up in a constricted place which is unsuitable for work, and if you perform replacement work there, this
could cause injury. Move the projector to a place large enough for work, and then replace the light-source lamp.
• Use a genuine product for the light-source lamp. If you use other than a genuine product, this could cause a malfunction.
Also, never use an old light-source lamp. This could cause marked degradation in performance or explode, possibly causing
the projector to malfunction or broken pieces to injure you.
Note
• The screws are fitted so that they do not come off the light-
source lamp.
• Do not replace the light-source lamp immediately after the projector has been used. The temperature of the light-source
lamp is still high and could cause a burn. Allow a cooling period of one hour or more before performing replacement.
• Before starting light-source lamp replacement work, turn off the MAIN POWER switch, and disconnect the power cord from
the wall outlet. If you perform the replacement work with the power cord connected, this could cause injury or electric shock.
• The light-source lamp used in this projector is a high pressure mercury lamp. Be careful when disposing of the light-source
lamp. If anything is unclear, please consult your dealer.

Maintenance
• Stains on the cabinet
These should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the cabinet is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted
neutral detergent and wring well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.
• Since the cabinet may deteriorate in quality, become damaged, or show paint peeled, note the following:
– Do not wipe with rough cloth.
Retrying operation:
Plug in the power cord again and operate the projector.
If the same warning indication is observed again, after the cooling fan has stopped, turn off the MAIN POWER switch, unplug
the power cord, and call your dealer for repair.
– Do not wipe vigorously.
– Do not wipe with thinner or benzene.
– Do not apply any volatile substance such as insecticides.
– Do not allow any rubber or vinyl article to remain in contact with the cabinet for a long time.
• Stains on the lens
These should be cleaned off with commercially available lens blowers or lens cleaning paper (for cleaning glasses and
cameras).
Do not use liquid cleaning agents. This could cause the surface coating to be removed.
Do not rub, scratch or hit the lens as its surface is prone to damage.
