Precautions for Use
12 - ENGLISH
Important
Information
Cautions on use
In order to get the picture quality
J
Draw curtains or blinds over windows and turn off any lights near the screen to prevent outside light or light
z
from indoor lamps from shining onto the screen.
Depending on where the projector is used, heated air from an exhaust port or warm or cold air from an air
z
conditioner can cause a shimmering effect on screen.
Avoid use in locations where exhaust or streams of air from projector, other devices and air conditioners ow
between the projector and the screen.
The lens of projector is affected by the heat from the luminous source. Because of this, the focusing stays
z
unstable right after the power is turned on. Focusing is stabled after projecting image for 30 minutes and
longer.
Do not touch the surface of the projector lens with your bare hand.
J
If the surface of the lens becomes dirty from ngerprints or anything else, this will be magnied and projected
onto the screen.
LCD Panel
J
The display unit of this projector comprises three LCD panels. Although an LCD panel is a product of high-
precision technology, some of the pixels on the projected image may be missing or constantly lit. Please note that
this is not a malfunction.
Displaying a still image for a longer time may result in an after-image on the LCD panels. If this happens, display
the all white screen in the test pattern for an hour or more.
Optical components
J
Operating the projector in an environment with high temperature or heavy exposure to dust or tobacco smoke
will reduce the service life of the optical components, such as the LCD panel and polarizing plate, and may
necessitate their replacement within less than one year of use. For details, consult your dealer.
Lamp
J
The luminous source of the projector is a mercury lamp with high internal pressure.
A high pressure mercury lamp has following characteristics.
The brightness of the lamp will decrease by duration of usage.
z
The lamp may burst with sound or shorten life by shock or chipping.
z
The life of the lamp varies greatly depending on individual specicities and usage conditions. In particular,
z
continuous use over 6 hours and frequent on/off switching of the power greatly deteriorate the lamp and affect
the lamp life.
In rare cases, the lamp burst shortly after the projection.
z
The risk of bursting increases when the lamp is used beyond its replacement cycle. Make sure to replace the
z
lamp unit consistently. (“When to replace the lamp unit” (Æpage 57))
If the lamp bursts, gas contained inside of the lamp is released in a form of smoke.
z
It is recommended to store replacement lamps for contingency.
z
It is recommended to have authorized engineer or your dealer replace the lamp unit.

Note
The remote control can be used within a distance of
z
about 7 m (23.0 ft) if pointed directly at the remote control
signal receiver. The remote control can control at angles
of up to ± 30 ° vertically and ± 30 ° horizontally, but the
effective control range may be reduced.
If there are any obstacles between the remote control
z
and the remote control signal receiver, the remote control
may not operate correctly.
You can operate the projector by reecting the remote
z
control signal on the screen. The operating range may
differ due to the loss of light caused by the properties of
the screen.
When the remote control signal receiver is lit with a
z
uorescent light or other strong light source, the projector
may become inoperative. Set the projector as far from
the luminous source as possible.

Setting Remote control ID numbers
When you use the system with multiple projectors, you can operate all the projectors simultaneously or each
projector individually using single remote control, if unique ID number is assigned to each projector.
After setting the ID number of the projector, set the same ID number to the remote control.
There are 7 different ID codes (ALL, Code 1~Code 6), the initial ID number is [ALL].
JSetting the ID number
1) While holding down the <MENU> button, press the <IMAGE> button. The number of times you press the
<IMAGE> button corresponds to the desired ID code number.
2) The number of times to press the <IMAGE> button is as follows:
Code 1= Once, Code 2= Twice, Code 3= 3 times, Code 4= 4 times
Code 5= 5 times, Code 6= 6 times
3) The ID code is changed when the <MENU> button is released.
4) The ID code is reset to [ALL] (default) by pressing the <MENU> button and <IMAGE> button at the same
time for 5 seconds or more.
Attention
If the <IMAGE> button is pressed 7 times or more, the ID code
z
cannot be changed (the operation is invalid).
The status of the ID code is not stored after replacing batteries.

Any other projection distance can be obtained according to the screen dimensions (m) using the following
calculations.
The distance is shown in units of meters. (The calculated distance may contain a certain error.)
If the screen dimensions are written as “SD",
For 4:3 aspect ratio For 16:9 aspect ratio
Screen height (SH) = SD(m) × 0.6 = SD(m) × 0.490
Screen width (SW) = SD(m) × 0.8 = SD(m) × 0.872
Minimum distance (LW) = 1.357 × SD(m) - 23.27 = 1.478 × SD(m) - 23.27
Maximum distance (LT) = 1.629 × SD(m) - 23.67 = 1.775 × SD(m) - 23.67
