Information
Cautions when setting the projectors
J
zDo not stack the projectors.
Do not block the ventilation ports (intake and exhaust) of the
z
projector.
Avoid heating and cooling air from the air conditioning system
z
directly blow to the ventilation ports (intake and exhaust) of the
projector.
Do not place the projector in an enclosed space.
z
If you need to place the projector in an enclosed space, additional air conditioning and ventilation system
must be equipped. When ventilation is insufcient, remaining heat may trigger the protection circuit of the
projector.

Precautions for Use

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 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.
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 95))
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.

Notes on Using Wireless Connection
Wireless connection function of the projector uses radio waves in the 2.4 GHz band.
A radio station license is not required, but be sure to read and fully understand the following items before use.
Do not use near other wireless equipment.
The following equipment may use radio waves in the same band as the projector.
When the projector is used near these devices, radio wave interference may make communication impossible,
or the communication speed may become slower.
Microwave ovens, etc.•
Industrial, chemical and medical equipment, etc.•
In-plant radio stations for identifying moving objects such as those used in factory manufacturing lines, etc.•
Designated low-power radio stations•
If at all possible, avoid the use of cellular phones, TV sets or radios near the projector.
Cellular phones, TV sets, radios and similar devices use different radio bands from the projector, so there
is no effect on wireless communication or the transmission and reception of these devices. However, radio
waves from the projector may produce audio or video noise.
Wireless communication radio waves cannot penetrate steel reinforcements, metal,
concrete, etc.
Communication is possible through walls and floors made from materials such as wood and glass (except
glass containing wire mesh), but not through walls and floors made from steel reinforcements, metal,
concrete, etc.
Avoid using the projector in locations prone to static electricity.
If the projector is used in a location prone to static electricity, such as on a carpet, the wireless LANor wired
LAN connection may be lost.
“Glossary” (Æpage 115 – 116)
If this happens, eliminate the source of static electricity or electromagnetic noise and reconnect to the
wireless LAN or wired LAN.
In rare cases static electricity or electromagnetic noise may make it impossible to establish a connection to
the LAN.
If this happens, press the power button on the remote control or on the projector to power off the projector
temporarily.
After the cooling fan stops operating (after <ON(G)/STANDBY(R)> indicator on the projector changes from
blinking in orange to lighting in red), power on the projector and reconnect to the LAN.
Using the projector outside the country
It is forbidden to take the projector outside the country or region where you purchased it, so use it only in
the said country or region. Also, note that depending on countries or regions there are restrictions on the
channels and frequencies at which you can use the wireless LAN.
Available wireless LAN channels
The channels (frequency range) that can be used differ according to the country or region. Refer to the table below.

About Wireless LANs
The advantage of a wireless LAN is that information can be exchanged between a PC or other such equipment
and an access point using radio waves as long as you are within range for radio transmissions.
On the other hand, because the radio waves can travel through obstacles (such as walls) and are available
everywhere within a given range, problems of the type listed below may occur if security-related settings are not
made.
A malicious third-part may intentionally intercept and monitor transmitted data including the content of e-mail•
and personal information such as your ID, password, and/or credit card numbers.
A malicious third-party may access your personal or corporate network without authorization and engage in the •
following types of behavior.
Retrieve personal and/or secret information (information leak)
Spread false information by impersonating a particular person (spoofing)
Overwrite intercepted communications and issue false data (tampering)
Spread harmful software such as a computer virus and crash your data and/or system (system crash)
Since most wireless LAN adapters or access points are equipped with security features to take care of these
problems, you can reduce the possibility of these problems occurring when using this product by making the
appropriate security settings for the wireless LAN device.
Some wireless LAN devices may not be set for security immediately after purchase. To decrease the possibility
of occurrence of security problems, before using any wireless LAN devices, be absolutely sure to make all
security-related settings according to the instructions given in the operation manuals supplied with them.
Depending on the specifications of the wireless LAN, a malicious third-party may be able to break security
settings by special means.
Please contact Panasonic if you need help taking care of security settings or other such.
If you cannot perform security settings for your wireless LAN by yourself, please contact the Panasonic Support
Center.
Panasonic asks customers to thoroughly understand the risk of using this product without making security
settings, and recommends that the customer make security settings at their own discretion and responsibility.
