CAUTION:
POWER

When disconnecting the power cord, be sure to hold the power plug and power connector.
If the power cord itself is pulled, the lead will become damaged, and re, short-circuits or serious electric
shocks will result.
When not using the projector for an extended period of time, disconnect the power plug from the wall
outlet and remove the batteries from the remote control.
Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet before carrying out any cleaning and replacing the unit.
Electric shocks can result if this is not done.
ON USE/INSTALLATION

Do not put your weight on this projector.
You could fall or the projector could break, and injury will result.
Be especially careful not to let young children stand or sit on the projector.
z
Do not place the projector in extremely hot locations.
Doing so will cause the outer casing or internal components to deteriorate, or result in re.
Take particular care in locations exposed to direct sunlight or near stoves.

Information
Precautions for Use
Cautions when transporting
When transporting the projector, hold it securely by its bottom and avoid
z
excessive vibration and impacts. Doing so may damage the internal parts
and result in malfunctions. You can also use the handle grip in the back of
the projector when transporting.
Do not transport the projector with the adjustable feet extended. Doing so
z
may damage the adjustable feet.
If you have purchased a projector with a standard projection lens, please
z
remove the lens cap on the lens before use, and keep it for later use. For
transportation, press and hold the <LENS> button or <LENS SHIFT>
button for more than 5 seconds to make the lens return to the central
position, and then attach the lens cap to protect the lens. If you have
purchased a projector without projection lens, please make the lens
return to the central position, and then attach the lens cover.
Use the handle grip when moving the projector.
z
Cautions when handling the projector
Do not hold the lens or the lens compartment tube when lifting or moving the projector. Doing so may cause
z
damage to the lens and the projector.
Care must be taken when handling the projector; do not drop, bump, subject it to strong forces, or put other
z
things on the cabinet.
Do not hold the lens and the peripheral part.
z
Cautions when installing
Do not set up the projector outdoors.
J
The projector is designed for indoor use only.
z
Do not use under the following conditions.
J
Places where vibration and impacts occur such as in a car or vehicle: Doing so may damage the internal parts
z
and result in malfunctions.
Near the exhaust of an air conditioner or near lights (studio lamps, etc.) where temperature changes greatly
z
(Operating environment Æpage 115): Doing so may shorten the life of the lamp or result in deformation of the
outer case and malfunctions.
Near high-voltage power lines or near motors: Doing so may interfere with the operation of the projector.
z
Be sure to ask authorized personnel or your supplier when mounting the
J
product to a ceiling.
This requires an optional ceiling mount bracket.
Model No.: ET-PKE200H (for high ceilings), ET-PKE200S (for low ceilings),
ET-PKE200B (Projector Mount Base).
Do not install the projector at elevations of 2 700 m (8 858 ft) or higher
J
above sea level.
Failure to do so may shorten the life of the internal parts and result in malfunctions.

Precautions for Use
ENGLISH - 13
Important
Information
Cautions when setting the projectors
J
When installing and using the projector with a method other than the oor standing installation using the
z
adjustable feet, x the projector using the ve screw holes for ceiling mounting (shown in the gure).
(Screw diameter:M6, tapping depth inside the set:12mm, torque: 4 ± 0.5 N•m)
Do not stack the projectors.
z
Do not block the ventilation ports (intake and exhaust) of the projector.
z
Avoid heating and cooling air from the air conditioning system directly
z
blow to the ventilation ports (intake and exhaust) of the projector.
Do not place the projector in an conned space.
z
When it is necessary to install in a conned space, install the air conditioning or ventilating installation
separately. Exhaust heat may accumulate when the ventilation is not enough, triggering the protection circuit
of the projector.
Do not use the projector tilted at an angle that exceeds ± 10 degrees vertically.

Disposal
When disposing of the product, ask your local authority or dealer about the correct methods of disposal.
The lamp contains mercury. When disposing of the used lamp unit, ask your nearest local authorities or dealer
about proper disposal of the unit.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions or your local disposal rule or guidelines.
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 may not
z
be stable 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.

Precautions for Use
ENGLISH - 15
Important
Information
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 12 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 96))
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.
