Getting Started
Notes on use
To view clear images:
The audience cannot enjoy high-contrast and clear images if outside light or the illumination interferes the
screen surface. Draw window curtains or blinds, turn off the lightings near the screen or take other proper
measures.
In rare cases, wafture can occur on the screen affected by the warm air from the exhaust port depending on
the environment. Make sure that there is no equipment in front of the set which will recirculate the exhaust
air from the set or other nearby equipment.
Do not touch the surface of the projection lens with bare hand.
If fingerprints or stains are left on the projection lens surface, they are magnified and projected on the screen.
Keep your hands away from the lens. Cover the lens with the supplied lens cap when the projector is not used.
DLP chips
The DLP chips are made using extremely high-precision technology. Note that in rare cases, pixels may be
missing or always lit, but this is not a malfunction.
Lamp
A mercury lamp with high internal pressure is used for the light source of this product. A high-pressure
mercury lamp has the following characteristics:
It may burst with a loud sound or end its life cycle by not illuminating because of given impacts, flaws, or
deterioration due to used hours.
The life cycle of a mercury lamp varies according to the individual difference or conditions of use. In
particular, turning the power on and off frequently and/or repeatedly will greatly affect the life cycle.
In rare cases, it may burst shortly after projection starts.
The possibility of explosion increases when the lamp is used beyond the replacement time.
When the lamp bursts, the gas inside will be emitted and may appear like smoke.
Provide a lamp for replacement in advance.
Maintenance
Be sure to remove the power cord plug from the receptacle before cleaning.
Use soft and dry cloth to clean the cabinet
Use a soft cloth moistened in warm water to clean away oil. Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner,
and alcohol, detergents for kitchens, or a chemical cloth. If using such solvents, the outer case may
become deformed, and the paint may peel off.
Do not clean the lens surface with fuzzy or dusty cloth.
If dust adheres to the lens, it will be magnified and projected on the screen. Use a soft and clean cloth to
wipe off dust.
Caution:
When connecting the projector to a PC or external device, use the power cord supplied with the corresponding
device and a commercially available shielded interface cable.
