Important Safeguards
These safety instructions are to ensure the long life of your projector and to prevent re and shock. Please read them
carefully and heed all warnings.
Installation
• Do not place the projector in the following conditions:
- on an unstable cart, stand, or table.
- near water, baths, or damp rooms.
- in direct sunlight, near heaters, or heat radiating appliances.
- in a dusty, smoky or steamy environment.

WARNING
• Do not use any other object than the projector’s sliding lens cover to cover the lens while the projector is on.
Doing so can cause the object to get extremely hot, and possibly resulting in a re or damage due to the heat
emitted from the light output.
• Do not place any objects, which are easily affected by heat, in front of the projector lens. Doing so could lead
to the object melting from the heat that is emitted from the light output.

iv
Important Information
Place the projector in a horizontal position
Be sure to use the projector within a tilt angle range from 30° above horizontal to 30°below (including the maximum
tilt angle 10° created by extending the tilt foot).
Using the projector in any way other than the desktop and ceiling mount may result in failures of the projector. If the
projector is used over a tilt angle of 10° above horizontal or 10°below, the lamp life will decrease*.
* If using the projector within a range from ± (plus or minus) 10° to ± (plus or minus) 30° (shown by shaded area), it
is recommended to replace the lamp when the remaining lamp life reaches 25% . Even if the remaining lamp life
shows 25 % or more, the lamp may break or fail to illuminate depending on individual lamp characteristics and
usage conditions. To show the remaining life of the lamp, press the Help button on the remote control and select
[INFO.] → [USAGE TIME] from the projector on-screen menu. (→ page 109)

v
Important Information
Fire and Shock Precautions
• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your
projector. Allow at least 4 inches (10cm) of space between your projector and a wall.
• Do not try to touch the exhaust vent on the left front (when seen from the front) as it can become heated while the
projector is turned on and immediately after the projector is turned off. Parts of the projector may become temporarily
heated if the projector is turned off with the Power button or if the AC power supply is disconnected during normal
projector operation.
Use caution when picking up the projector.
• Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from falling into your projector. Do not attempt to retrieve
any objects that might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal objects such as a wire or screwdriver into your
projector. If something should fall into your projector, disconnect it immediately and have the object removed by a
qualied service personnel.
• Do not place any objects on top of the projector.
• Do not touch the power plug during a thunderstorm. Doing so can cause electrical shock or re.
• The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-240V AC 50/60 Hz. Ensure that your power supply
ts this requirement before attempting to use your projector.
• Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result.
• Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the projector. The light being projected from the
lens is extensive, therefore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out of the lens, can cause
unpredictable outcome such as re or injury to the eyes.
• Do not place any objects, which are easily affected by heat, in front of a projector exhaust vent.
Doing so could lead to the object melting or getting your hands burned from the heat that is emitted from the exhaust.
• Do not splash water over the projector. Doing so can cause electrical shock or re. If the projector gets wet, turn off
the projector, unplug the power cord and have the projector serviced by a qualied service personnel.
• Handle the power cord carefully. A damaged or frayed power cord can cause electric shock or re.
- Do not use any power cord other than the one supplied with the projector.
- Do not bend or tug the power cord excessively.
- Do not place the power cord under the projector, or any heavy object.
- Do not cover the power cord with other soft materials such as rugs.
- Do not heat the power cord.
- Do not handle the power plug with wet hands.
• Turn off the projector, unplug the power cord and have the projector serviced by a qualied service personnel under
the following conditions:
- When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
- If liquid has been spilled into the projector, or if it has been exposed to rain or water.
- If the projector does not operate normally when you follow the instructions described in this user’s manual.
- If the projector has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
- If the projector exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.
• Disconnect the power cord and any other cables before carrying the projector.
• Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord before cleaning the cabinet or replacing the lamp.
• Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord if the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time.
• When using a LAN cable (only models with the RJ-45 LAN port):
For safety, do not connect to the connector for peripheral device wiring that might have excessive voltage.

A Lamp Characteristic
The projector has a high-pressure mercury lamp as a light source.
A lamp has a characteristic that its brightness gradually decreases with age. Also repeatedly turning the lamp on
and off will increase the possibility of its lower brightness.
The actual lamp life may vary depending upon the individual lamp, the environmental conditions and usage.
CAUTION:
• DO NOT TOUCH THE LAMP immediately after it has been used. It will be extremely hot. Turn the projector off
and then disconnect the power cord. Allow at least one hour for the lamp to cool before handling.
• When removing the lamp from a ceiling-mounted projector, make sure that no one is under the projector. Glass
fragments could fall if the lamp has been burned out.

❷ Introduction to the Projector
This section introduces you to your new projector and describes the features and controls.
Congratulations on Your Purchase of the Projector
This projector is one of the very best projectors available today. The projector enables you to project precise images
up to 300 inches across (measured diagonally) from your PC or Mac computer (desktop or notebook), VCR, DVD
player, or document camera.
You can use the projector on a tabletop or cart, you can use the projector to project images from behind the screen,
and the projector can be permanently mounted on a ceiling*1 . The remote control can be used wirelessly.
*1 Do not attempt to mount the projector on a ceiling yourself.
The projector must be installed by qualied technicians in order to ensure proper operation and reduce the risk
of bodily injury.
In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the installation must be in accordance
with any local building codes. Please consult your dealer for more information.
Features you’ll enjoy:
• Quick start (3 seconds*2), Quick Power Off, Direct Power Off
3 seconds*2 after turning on the power, the projector is ready to display PC or video images.
The projector can be put away immediately after the projector is powered down. No cool down period is required
after the projector is turned off from the remote control or cabinet control panel.
The projector has a feature called “Direct Power Off”. This feature allows the projector to be turned off (even when
projecting an image) by using the Main Power Switch or disconnecting the AC power supply.
To turn off the AC power supply when the projector is powered on, use a power strip equipped with a switch and
a breaker.
*2 The quick start time is only when [STANDBY MODE] is set to [NORMAL] in the on-screen message.
• 0.21 W (100-130 V AC)/0.43 W (200-240 V AC) in standby condition with energy saving technology
Selecting [POWER-SAVING] for [STANDBY MODE] from the menu can put the projector in power-saving mode
that consumes only 0.21 W (100-130 V AC)/0.43 W (200-240 V AC). The wattage is a typical value.
• Carbon Meter
This feature will show energy-saving effect in terms of CO2 emission reduction (kg) and electricity cost when the
projector’s [LAMP POWER] is set to [AUTO ECO], [ECO1], or [ECO2].
The amount of CO2 emission reduction will be displayed in the conrmation message at the time of power-off and
in the INFO of the on-screen menu.
• Lamp life up to 6000 hours
Using in Eco Mode (ECO) allows you to prolong the projector’s lamp life up to 6000 hours (up to 3500 hours in
ECO MODE OFF).

The two HDMI inputs provide HDCP compatible digital signals. The HDMI input also supports audio signal.
• 16 W built-in speaker for an integrated audio solution
Powerful 16 watt monaural speaker provides volume need for large rooms.
