Features of the Multimedia Projector
SX6/SX60/X600
Thank you for purchasing a Canon projector.
The MULTIMEDIA PROJECTOR SX6/SX60/X600 are high-performance projectors which
project the data from the computer and the moving picture from the DVD player to the big
screen.
Major Features
Smooth and Beautiful Imaging Capability
Incorporation of AISYS, Canon's unique optical engine, and LCOS (Liquid Crystal On Sili-
con) achieves high brightness, high contrast ratio, and smooth and beautiful lattice-free
images.
High Brightness of 3500 Lumen (SX6/X600)
This projector provides high brightness of the best-in-class* 3500 lumen.
* Portable projectors less than 5 kg.
Super-Silent Operation of 27dB* (SX60)
This projector achieves super-silence operation as low as 27dB which creates a comfort-
able atmosphere where you can concentrate on watching a movie.
* At a silent mode.
Native SXGA+ Resolution (SX6/SX60)
Native SXGA+ resolution (1400 by 1050 dots) ensures projection of a high-quality image in
a wider projection area with a high degree of resolution.
* X600 supports native XGA resolution (1024 by 768 dots).
High-powered 1.7X Zoom Lens
1.7X zoom aspheric lens can project a 100-inch image when placed 3 m (9.8') to 4.9 m
(16.0') away.
"Auto Setup Function" for Easy Installation
The "Auto Setup Function" allows you to install the projector easily by automatically adjust-
ing focus and keystone distortion.
Adobe®RGB Color Space Compatibility (SX6)
AdobeRGB color space compatibility achieves faithful color reproduction.
"Home Cinema" Mode Reproducing the Atmosphere of a Movie Theater
(SX60)
You can reproduce the atmosphere of a full-scale movie theater in your home by selecting
"Home Cinema" from the image mode.
"Off and Go" Function Allowing the Carriage Immediately After the Use
You can carry the projector immediately after the use because the cooling fan keeps rotat-
ing even if the power cord is removed from the electrical outlet.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety Precautions
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE
THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
zThis projector projects intense light from the projection lens. Do not stare directly into
the lens if possible, as doing so may result in eye damage. Be especially careful that
children do not stare directly into the beam.
zInstall the projector in an appropriate position. Installing the projector in an
unappropriate position may result in a fire hazard.
zAllow for appropriate space above beside and behind of the projector cabinet for
allowing air circulation and cooling of the projector. Minimum clearances must be
maintained. If the projector is to be built into a compartment or similarly space, the
minimum distances must be maintained. Do not cover the ventilation slot on the
projector. Heat build-up can reduce the service life of your projector, and can also be
dangerous.
zDo not put any flammable objects or spray cans near the projector, as the hot air
exhausted from the ventilation holes may result in an explosion.
zIf the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time, unplug it from the
power outlet.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Lamp Handling Precautions
This projector uses a high-pressure mercury lamp which must be handled carefully and
correctly as mentioned below.
zA lamp may explode with a loud sound or burn out due to a shock, scratch, or use
beyond its expiry date.
zThe lamp life may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the usage environment.
There is no guarantee that all lamps will last for the same period of time. Some lamps
may fail in a shorter period of time than other similar lamps.
zA lamp gradually becomes darker over time.
zIf the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced (i.e., the LAMP REPLACE
indicator lights up twice), the chances of an explosion increase. Replace the lamp with
a new one immediately if such is the case.
zAlways keep your face away from the exhaust vent so that you are not injured from the
gas and broken lamp shards.
Carrying/Transporting the Projector
zThis projector is a precision machine. Do not subject the projector to strong shocks or
vibrations or turn it down.
zInstall the lens cap to protect the lens and put the projector in the carrying bag to pro-
tect it from dust and scratches on the surface of it when you carry the projector.
zDo not put the projector in the carrying bag until the cooling fan stops rotating. The pro-
jector may be damaged due to the heat.
zThe carrying bag is not designed to protect the projector from external shocks. When
carrying the projector with it put in the carrying bag, do not give a shock to it, drop it, or
place anything on it. The projector may be damaged or malfunctioned.
zDo not transport the projector through a courier or transport service with the carrying
bag. Put the projector in an impact-resistant transport case if such is the case.
If a Lamp Explodes
If a lamp explodes, gas and broken shards may scatter inside the projector and
may come out of the exhaust vent. The gas contains toxic mercury. Open
windows and doors for ventilation. If you inhale the gas or the shards of the
broken lamp contact your eyes or mouth, consult a doctor immediately.
If a lamp explodes, its shards may scatter inside the projector. Ask the Canon
service representative to clean and check the inside of the projector and
replace the lamp.
Disposal of Waste Lamp
Dispose of the projectors mercury lamp according to local regulations just like
the fluorescent lamps.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Installation Precautions
Ensure that the projector is installed with a minimum distance of 1 m (3.3') from its left,
right, rear, and top panels to the neighboring object such as a wall.
Installation
Install the projector correctly. Incorrect installation
may cause troubles and accidents.
zDo not tilt the projector more than 20 degrees
above and below the horizontal.
zDo not point the projector up or down.
zDo not install the projector vertically.
Hot Air from Exhaust Vent
zHot air is exhausted from the exhaust vent. Do
not place any object near the exhaust vent.
- Do not put any spray cans near the vent.
The internal pressure increases due to heat,
such may result in an explosion.
- Do not put any metallic object on the pro-
jector. It may become hot, resulting in an
accident or injury.
- Do not put anything such as a plant pot
near the exhaust vent.
- Do not put anything near the exhaust vent that may deform or deteriorate due to
heat.
- Do not seat anyone near the exhaust vent.
zThe area around the exhaust vent and the cabinet above the exhaust vent become hot.
Do not touch these areas, or you may get burnt. In particular, keep children away from
these areas.
zDo not put anything that may deform or discolor due to heat on the projector.
Do Not Use in the Following Environments
zDo not install the projector in a humid or dusty location or a position where there is a lot
of oily or cigarette smoke. Optical parts such as a lens and mirror may be stained,
resulting in poor picture quality.
zDo not use the projector in a place subject to either very high or very low temperatures.
- Operating temperature: +5°C to +35°C
- Storage temperature: -10°C to +60°C
Condensation
zIf the projector is carried from a cold place to a warm place or the room temperature is
raised rapidly, condensation may form on the lens and mirror due to the moisture in the
atmosphere, resulting in a blurred picture. Wait until condensation evaporates and nor-
mal picture is shown.
zThe projector may be damaged if it is tilted more than 20 degrees above or below.
