■Safety Instructions
WARNING:
The chassis of this projector is isolated (COLD) from AC line by using the converter transformer. Primary side of
the converter and lamp power supply unit circuit is connected to the AC line and it is hot, which hot circuit is iden-
tified with the line ( ) in the schematic diagram. For continued product safety and protection of personnel
injury, servicing should be made with qualified personnel.
The following precautions must be observed.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1: An isolation transformer should be connected in the
power line between the projector and the AC line
before any service is performed on the projector.
2: Comply with all caution and safety-related notes pro-
vided on the cabinet back, cabinet bottom, inside the
cabinet or on the chassis.
3: When replacing a chassis in the cabinet, always be
certain that all the protective devices are installed
properly, such as, control knobs, adjustment covers
or shields, barriers, etc.
DO NOT OPERATE THIS PROJECTOR WITHOUT
THE PROTECTIVE SHIELD IN POSITION AND
PROPERLY SECURED.
4: Before replacing the cabinet cover, thoroughly
inspect the inside of the cabinet to see that no stray
parts or tools have been left inside.
Before returning any projector to the customer, the
service personnel must be sure it is completely safe to
operate without danger of electric shock.
SERVICE PERSONNEL WARNING
Eye damage may result from directly viewing the light produced by the Lamp used in this equipment. Always turn
off Lamp before opening cover. The Ultraviolet radiation eye protection required during this servicing.
Never turn the power on without the lamp to avoid electric-shock or damage of the devices since the stabilizer
generates high voltages(15kV - 20kV) at its starts.
Since the lamp is very high temperature during units operation replacement of the lamp should be done at least
45 minutes after the power has been turned off, to allow the lamp cool-off.
PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE
Product safety should be considered when a component replacement is made in any area of the projector.
Components indicated by mark in the parts list and the schematic diagram designate components in which
safety can be of special significance. It is, therefore, particularly recommended that the replacement of there parts
must be made by exactly the same parts.

●Lamp cover switch
The lamp cover switch (SW8801) cuts off the drive signal to the
lamp circuit when the lamp cover is removed or no close com-
pletely. After opening the lamp cover for replacing the lamp ass’y,
place the lamp cover correctly otherwise the projector can not
turn on.
●Thermal switch
There is the thermal switch (SW902) inside of the projector to
prevent the internal temperature rising abnormally. When the
internal temperature reaches near 100˚C, turn off the AC main
power supply automatically.
The thermal switch is not reset to normal automatically even if the
internal temperature becomes normal. Reset the thermal switch
following procedure.
Check the resistance between terminals of thermal switch by
using the tester. If it has high impedance, thermal switch may be
in operative.
How to reset the thermal switch
1. Remove the cabinet top following to “Mechanical
Disassemblies”.
2. Press the reset button on the thermal switch with a sharp-
pointed tool.
CAUTION:
Before press the reset button, make sure that the AC cord must
be disconnected from the AC outlet.
■Circuit Protections
This projector provides the following circuit protections to operate in safety. If the abnormality occurs inside the pro-
jector, it will automatically turn off by operating one of the following protection circuits.
●Fuse
A fuse is located inside of the projector. When the POWER indica-
tor is not lightning, the fuse may be opened. Check the fuse as fol-
lowing steps.

●Warning temperature and power failure protection
The WARNING indicator flashes red and the projector will automatically turn off when the internal temperature of
the projector exceeds the normal temperature or when stopping cooling fans or when the internal power supply
lines are failed.
Check the following possible causes and wait until stopping the WARNING indicator flashing.
Possible causes
- Air filter is clogged with dust particles. Remove dust from the air filter by following instructions in the “Air filter
care and cleaning” below.
- Ventilation slots of the projector are blocked. In such an event, reposition the projector so that ventilation slots are
not obstructed.
- Check if projector is used at higher temperature place (Normal operating temperature is 5 to 35 ˚C or 41 to 95˚F)
If the WARNING indicator still continues to flash, there may be defects on cooling fans or power supply circuits.
Please check fan operation and power supply lines referring to the “Power Supply Lines Chart”.
Air filter care and cleaning
The removable air filter prevents dust from accumulation on the surface of the projection lens and projection mirror.
Should the air filters become clogged with dust particles, it will reduce the cooling fan’s effectiveness and may
result in internal heat build up and adversely affect the life of the projector.
To clean up the air filters, follow the cleaning procedure
below:
1. Turn the projector off, and disconnect the AC power
cord from the AC outlet.
2. Turn the projector upside down and remove the air fil-
ters by pulling the latches upward.
3. Clean the air filters with a brush or wash out dust and
particles.
4. Replace each air filter properly. Make sure that the air
filters are fully inserted.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the projector with the air filters removed.
Dust may accumulate on the LCD panel and the mirror,
and it may spoil the fine picture image.
Do not put the small parts into the air intake vents. It may
result in the malfunction of the projector. The air filter is
small parts. Take care that children don’t eat or swallow it.
RECOMMENDATION
We recommend avoiding dusty, smoky environments when operating the projector. Usage in these environments
may cause poor image quality.
When using under dusty or smoky conditions, dust may accumulate on optical elements inside the projector. The
condition may degrade the quality of a projected image.
When the above symptoms are noticed, please clean up the LCD panel and lens following to the “Cleaning
Method”.
