Wiping with tissue paper or a handkerchief can damage the lens.
To clean the cabinet, operation panel, and glass surface, wipe gently with asoft
cloth. For particularly dirty spots, soak the cloth in a neutral detergent mixed in
water, wring out well and wipe off the dirt, then use a dry cloth to wipe dry.
Do not wipe the projector with any volatile solvent such as benzine or thinner.
Solvents can cause surface deformation or flaking of the paint.
If using an impregnated cloth, follow the instructions.
•
• Avoid scratching the glass surface.
•
Take care not to scratch the glass surface of the scanner with hard or pointed
objects.
Scratches on the glass may distort the projected image.
• Batteries
•
When inserting batteries in the remote controller, note the poles (plus and
minus signs) and insert correctly as indicated. Inserting a battery in a wrong
direction can cause rupture or leakage, and may result in fire and injury or
soil the surrounding area.
•
•
Do not use batteries other than the type specified for the equipment. Do not
use a new battery and an old battery together. Incorrect battery usage may
result in rupture or leakage, and may cause fire and injury.
Do not heat, break open, burn, or immerse the batteries. Battery rupture or
leakage may cause fire and injury.
• Servicing and cleaning
Have the internal components cleaned by a retailer about once a year.
•
There is a risk of fire or faulty operation if the inside of the projector gets
dusty and is not cleaned for a long time. For best effect, the projector should
be serviced before the wet season brings damp conditions. Cleaning charges
are at the discretion of the retailer.
• If not using the projector for a long period:
•
If you do not plan to use the projector for a long time, pull out the power plug
for safety.
• Disposal
Follow the recommendations of your local authority when disposing of the
projector.
•
• Transporting the projector
•
Use the special packaging when transporting the projector. Nippon Avionics
Co. Ltd. cannot accept responsibility in the event of damage or accident if
other packaging is used.
•
•
Use the special packaging no more than two times. Repeated usage reduces
the shock absorbency of the packaging and can lead to damage or accident.
Contact the retailer if you reguire new packaging.
• Lamp implosion
An DC type New Super High pressure lamp is used in this projector and it is
•
rare for the lamp to explode during use. The lamp is also designed to forcibly
turn off because there is a high possibility that the lamp breaks if it is used
beyond the lamp life of 1000 hours (Refer to pages 46 and 47).
Note the following things
•
A noise occurs because the internal pressure of the New Super High pres-
sure lamp gets extremely high.
The unit is designed so that no pieces of glass come out of it when the lamp
explodes.
•
However, the gas inside of the lamp go out and looks like white smoke, it will
not lead to any fire.

Connecting to a Personal Computer
■ If images of a personal computer are not projected
Check the following if images of a personal computer are not projected, or projected incorrectly.
● If images are not projected
If the external output signals from a personal computer are not input to MP-15E, “No PC
signal” appears on the MP-15E display. Check the following if “No PC signal” appears.
1
Restart the computer.
The connection of MP-15E may not be recognized by the personal computer, if MP-15E is
connected after the PC is started up. If the connection is not recognized, images are not
projected because no external output signals from the PC are output.
2
Check the functions of the personal computer.
Some notebook PCs require a special operation to output the signals from the external
output terminal. The external output signals may not be output from the notebook PC
unless the operation is performed.
Refer to the manuals of your notebook PC for the information about how to output signals
from the external output terminal.
Procedure example
• In the case of IBM PC/AT
F1 F12
(Procedure may vary from models
Press Fn key and one of the keys
to models.)

●Images are not projected correctly though they are displayed normally on the
notebook PC.
1
Check the function of the notebook PC.
There is a possibility that images are not projected correctly even through the images are
displayed correctly on the LCD of the notebook PC. When images are displayed on two or
more devices at the same time (e.g. images on the LCD and the signals are output to
other devices at the same time), the input signals are outside the scanning frequency
range of MP-15E because of the restrictions on the notebook PC.
In this case, the correct images cannot be obtained even by the adjustment of MP-15E.
Terminating the display on the LCD, so that only the external output signals are output,
may project images correctly on MP-15E. Refer to the manuals of your notebook PC for
details.

■ Input Signal Compatibility Table (PC video input)
The MP-15E supports the signals marked by ● in the following table. Note that on some PC
models, flickering and blurring occur in the projected image. If this happens, adjust the screen in
the Sync Adjustment menu.

■Lamp Unit Replacement
The target replacement time of the lamp used on this projector is 950 hours. (This may be
shortened depending on the conditions of use.)
Since there is a high possibility of lamp explosion if the cumulative usage time exceeds
more than 1000 hours, the power to the lamp is cut off at 1000 hours.
In the following instances where the cumulative usage time of the lamp is more than 950
hours, replace the lamp unit (sold separately). When the projected image becomes dark or
projected colors are unsatisfactory, the lamp has reached the end of its life. In this case,
replace the lamp unit.
● When the message shown below is displayed while the lamp is lit (This appears when the
cumulative usage time of the lamp is more than 950 hours.)
Lamp usage 950 hours.
Replace the lamp.
● When "Lamp usage time" on the menu display screen has reached 950 hours, the LAMP
LED blinks.
The lamp usage time is displayed in the “Lamp setting” menu for confirmation. (For
details, see page 36.)
● When the LAMP LED is lit without the lamp lighting.
(When the cumulative usage time of the lamp is more than 1000 hours.)

WARNING
• Do not replace the lamp unit immediately after you have turned the projector off.
The lamp becomes very hot and may cause a burn injury. Turn off the lamp, unplug the plug from the power outlet,
and then wait at least one hour before replacing the lamp.
• Do not touch the lamp with your hands. This may result in reduced brightness or reduced lamp life.
• This projector contains many glass components (e.g. a lamp and mirrors). If these glass components break,
handle them with care to prevent personal injury from glass fragments. Contact your dealer or a Nippon Avionics
service center for repair.
CAUTION
• This lamp unit is not compatible with the lamp unit for the MP-100, MP-150, MP-200, MP-250, MP-300, and MP-
400. Specify the exclusive lamp unit (model No.: MPLU-10).

■ Cleaning the Air Filter
The air filter is an important part as it keeps the optical components inside your projector
free from dirt and dust. A clogged air filter can cause the temperature to rise inside your
projector and the fan speed to increase. This, in turn, may reduce lamp life or cause the
projector to malfunction. The air filter should be cleaned regularly (about once a month if
the projector is used four hours a day).
Replace with a new air filter if it is difficult to remove dust and dirt from the air filter.
Procedure
1
2
Remove the air filter.
Pull the air filter in the direction of the arrow while
pressing in the indent to remove.
Vacuum the sponge to take off dust.
Vacuum the outside surface of the sponge as shown in
the illustration.
3
Mount the air filter.
Follow step 1 in reverse order.
CAUTION
Caring for the Air Filter and Cautions
• Do not wash the air filter with water or other liquids. This may cause the filter to clog.
• Do not wipe the air filter with a cloth or a wet rag as this, too, may cause the filter to clog.
• Always vacuum from the outside of the air filter. If you vacuum from the inside of the air filter, this will reduce the
effectiveness of the air filter.
• Do not forget to install the air filter. If the projector is left without the air filter installed, dust may enter the projector
and cause dirty projected images.
• When the air filter becomes damaged, be sure to replace with a new one. If the projector is used with the air filter
damaged, dust may enter the projector and cause dirty projected images.
NOTE
The lamp will not light unless the air filter is mounted.
