Projector features / About contents of package
Projector features
This projector is used to project various computer signals as well as NTSC / PAL
/ SECAM video signals onto a screen. It requires just a little space for installation
and gets a large image from short distance.
High Brightness
Newly developed 165W UHB (Ultra High Brightness) lamp gives you a higher
brightness image on a screen. The image can be still kept as bright and clean
enough for use in bright rooms.
Low Noise
WHISPER mode is equipped for reducing acoustic noise to realize quieter
operation. It is perfect for use in low luminance rooms where low noise is more
important than brightness.
Compact Body
Even with its many features, this projector is extremely compact and slim,
which gives you more flexibility and usability to use it where you want.
About contents of package
Please see the "Contents of package" of the "User's Manual - Quick Guide". Your
projector should come with the items shown there. Contact immediately your deal-
er if anything is missing.
NOTE • Keep the original packing materials for future reshipment. For
moving the projector, be sure to use the original packing material. Use special
caution for the lens part.

Adjusting the projector's elevator
WARNING ►Do not adjust the projector’s elevator during use or imme-
diately after use. Handling while the projector is in a high temperature could
cause a burn and/or malfunction to the projector. Before operating, make sure
that the power switch is off, that the power cord is not plugged in, and that the
projector is cool adequately.
CAUTION ►If you press the elevator button without holding the projec-
tor, the projector might crash down, overturn, smash your fingers and possibly
result in malfunction. To prevent damaging the projector and injuring yourself,
always hold the projector whenever using the elevator buttons to adjust the
elevator feet.
►Except for inclining by the elevator feet adjustment, place the projector hori-
zontally.

Setting up
Connecting your devices
CAUTION ►Turn off all devices prior to connecting them to the projector.
Attempting to connect a live device to the projector may generate extremely
loud noises or other abnormalities that may result in malfunction and/or dam-
age to the device and/or projector.
►Use the accessory cable or a designated-type cable for the connection.
Some cables have to be used with core set. A too long cable may cause a cer-
tain picture degradation. Please consult with your dealer for details. For cables
that have a core only at one end, connect the core to the projector.
►Make sure that you connect devices to the correct port. Incorrect connection
may result in malfunction and/or damage to the device and/or projector.
NOTE • Whenever attempting to connect a laptop computer to the projector,
be sure to activate the laptop’s RGB external image output (set the laptop to CRT
display or to simultaneous LCD and CRT display). For details on how this is done,
please refer to the instruction manual of the corresponding laptop computer.
• Secure the screws on the connectors and tighten.
• Some computers may have multiple display screen modes. Use of some of
these modes will not be possible with this projector.
• For some RGB signal modes, the optional Mac adapter is necessary.
• When the image resolution is changed on a computer, depending on an input,
automatic adjust function may take some time and may not be completed. In
this case, you may not be able to see a check box to select “Yes/No” for the
new resolution on Windows. Then the resolution will go back to the original.
It might be recommended to use other CRT or LCD monitors to change the
resolution.
About Plug-and-Play capability

WARNING
►The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp can break with a
loud bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, handled while hot, or worn over time. Note
that 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.
►About disposal of a lamp • This product contains a mercury lamp; do not put in trash.
Dispose of in accord with environmental laws.
For more information, call your dealer.
• 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.
• 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.
• Before replacing the lamp, turn the projector off and unplug the power cord,
then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool sufficiently. Handling the lamp
Disconnect
the plug

power
outlet
while hot can cause burns, as well as damaging the lamp.
• Never unscrew except the appointed (marked by an arrow) screws.
• Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is suspended from above.
This is dangerous, since if the lamp’s bulb has broken, the shards will fall out
when the cover is opened. In addition, working in high places is dangerous, so
ask your local dealer to have the lamp replaced even if the bulb is not broken.
• Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed. At the lamp replacing,
make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose screws could result in
damage or injury.
• Use only the lamp of the specified type.
• 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 or a service representative.
• Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst
during use.
• If the indicators or a message prompts you to replace the lamp (see the
section “Related Messages” and “Regarding the indicator Lamps”), 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.
