Using the projector in other countries
■ The power supply voltage and the shape of
the plug may vary depending on the region
or country you are using the projector in.
When using the projector overseas, make
sure you use an appropriate power cord for
the country you are in.
Temperature monitor function
■
If the projector starts to over-
heat due to setup problems or
blockage of the air vents, “
”
and “
” will illuminate in
the lower left corner of the picture. If the tem-
perature continues to rise, the lamp will turn off,
the temperature warning indicator on the pro-
jector will blink, and after a 90-second cooling-
off period the projector will enter the standby
mode. Refer to “Maintenance Indicators” on
page 94 for details.
Info
• The cooling fan regulates the internal tem-
perature, and its performance is automati-
cally controlled. The sound of the fan may
change during projector operation due to
changes in the fan speed. This does not
indicate malfunction.
• Even if you unplug the power cord after
projector operation, the cooling fan con-
tinues to run for a while. When you place
the projector into the storage case, make
sure that the cooling fan has stopped.
Optional lens installation
■ Be sure to have service personnel install the
optional lenses.
Do not block the intake and exhaust
vents.
■ Allow at least 11
13
/16 inches (30 cm) of space
between the exhaust vent and the nearest
wall or obstruction.
■ Be sure that the intake vents and the exhaust
vent are not obstructed.
■ If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro-
tection circuit will automatically put the pro-
jector into standby mode to prevent overheat
damage. This does not indicate a malfunc-
tion (See pages 94 and 95.). Remove the pro-
jector power cord from the wall outlet and wait
at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where
the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked,
plug the power cord back in and turn on the
projector. This will return the projector to the
normal operating condition.
Caution regarding usage of the projector
■ When using the projector, take care not to sub-
ject it to hard impact and/or vibration, as this
can result in damage. Take extra care with the
lens. If you are not to use the projector for a
long time, make certain you unplug the power
cord from the wall outlet, and disconnect any
other cables connected to it.
■ Do not carry the projector by holding the lens.
■ When storing the projector, ensure you at-
tach the lens cap to the projector. (See page
13.)
■ Do not expose the projector to direct sunlight
or place it near heat sources. Doing so may
affect the cabinet color or cause deformation
of the plastic cover.
Other connected equipment
■ When connecting a computer or other audio-
visual equipment to the projector, make the
connections AFTER unplugging the power
cord of the projector from the AC outlet and
turning off the equipment to be connected.
■ Please read the owner’s manuals of the pro-
jector and the equipment to be connected for
instructions on how to make the connections.
