When the image is projected either from the top
or from the bottom towards the screen at an angle,
the image becomes distorted trapezoidally.
The function for correcting trapezoidal distortion
is called Keystone Correction.
This projector is equipped with an ÒAuto V-Key-
stone CorrectionÓ function that automatically cor-
rects any trapezoidal distortion within the pro-
jected image. The correction is made automatically
provided the vertical incline or decline is within
±12 degrees.

Caution concerning the lamp unit
Potential hazard of glass par-
ticles if lamp ruptures. In case
of lamp rupture, contact your
nearest Sharp Authorized Pro-
jector Dealer or Service Cen-
ter for replacement.
See “Regarding the Lamp” on
page 61.
Caution concerning the setup of the pro-
jector
For minimal servicing and to maintain high
image quality, SHARP recommends that this
projector be installed in an area free from hu-
midity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the
projector is subjected to these environments,
the vents and lens must be cleaned more
often. As long as the projector is regularly
cleaned, use in these environments will not
reduce the overall operation life of the unit.
Internal cleaning should only be performed
by a Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or
Service Center.
Do not set up the projector in places ex-
posed to direct sunlight or bright light.
Position the screen so that it is not in direct
sunlight or room light. Light falling directly on
the screen washes out the colors, making
viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim
the lights when setting up the screen in a
sunny or bright room.
The projector may be safely tilted to a
maximum angle of 9 degrees.
Placement should be within ±9 degrees of
horizontal.
When using the projector in high-altitude
areas such as mountains (at altitudes of
approximately 1,500 meters (4,900 feet)
or more)
When you use the projector in high-altitude
areas with thin air, set “Fan Mode” to “High”.
Neglecting this can affect the longevity of the
optical system.
Warning about placing the projector in a
high position
When placing the projector in a high posi-
tion, make certain it is carefully secured to
avoid personal injury caused by the projec-
tor falling down.
Do not subject the projector to hard im-
pact and/or vibration.
Take care with the lens so as not to hit or
damage the surface of the lens.
Rest your eyes occasionally.
Continuously watching the screen for long
hours will cause eye strain. Take regular
breaks to rest your eyes.
Avoid locations with extremes of tem-
perature.
The operating temperature of the projector
is from 41°F to 95°F (+5°C to +35°C).
The storage temperature of the projector is
from –4°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C).
Do not block the intake and exhaust
vents.
Allow at least 7 7/8inches (20 cm) of space
between the exhaust vent and the nearest
wall or obstruction.
Ensure that the intake vent and the exhaust
vent are not obstructed.
If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro-
tection circuit will automatically put the pro-
jector into standby mode to prevent overheat
damage. This does not indicate a malfunc-
tion (see pages 59 and 60). Remove the pro-
jector power cord from the wall outlet and wait
at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where
the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked,
plug the power cord back in and turn on the
projector. This will return the projector to the
normal operating condition.

Ensure that you read the following safeguards when
setting up your projector.
Caution concerning the lamp unit
■Potential hazard of glass par-
ticles if lamp ruptures. In case
of lamp rupture, contact your
nearest Sharp Authorized Pro-
jector Dealer or Service Cen-
ter for replacement.
See “Regarding the Lamp” on
page 61.
Caution concerning the setup of the pro-
jector
■For minimal servicing and to maintain high
image quality, SHARP recommends that this
projector be installed in an area free from hu-
midity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the
projector is subjected to these environments,
the vents and lens must be cleaned more
often. As long as the projector is regularly
cleaned, use in these environments will not
reduce the overall operation life of the unit.
Internal cleaning should only be performed
by a Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or
Service Center.
Do not set up the projector in places ex-
posed to direct sunlight or bright light.
■Position the screen so that it is not in direct
sunlight or room light. Light falling directly on
the screen washes out the colors, making
viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim
the lights when setting up the screen in a
sunny or bright room.
The projector may be safely tilted to a
maximum angle of 9 degrees.
■Placement should be within ±9 degrees of
horizontal.
When using the projector in high-altitude
areas such as mountains (at altitudes of
approximately 1,500 meters (4,900 feet)
or more)
■When you use the projector in high-altitude
areas with thin air, set “Fan Mode” to “High”.
Neglecting this can affect the longevity of the
optical system.
Warning about placing the projector in a
high position
■When placing the projector in a high posi-
tion, make certain it is carefully secured to
avoid personal injury caused by the projec-
tor falling down.
Do not subject the projector to hard im-
pact and/or vibration.
■Take care with the lens so as not to hit or
damage the surface of the lens.
Rest your eyes occasionally.
■Continuously watching the screen for long
hours will cause eye strain. Take regular
breaks to rest your eyes.
Avoid locations with extremes of tem-
perature.
■The operating temperature of the projector
is from 41°F to 95°F (+5°C to +35°C).
■The storage temperature of the projector is
from –4°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C).
Do not block the intake and exhaust
vents.
■Allow at least 7 7/8inches (20 cm) of space
between the exhaust vent and the nearest
wall or obstruction.
■Ensure that the intake vent and the exhaust
vent are not obstructed.
■If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro-
tection circuit will automatically put the pro-
jector into standby mode to prevent overheat
damage. This does not indicate a malfunc-
tion (see pages 59 and 60). Remove the pro-
jector power cord from the wall outlet and wait
at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where
the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked,
plug the power cord back in and turn on the
projector. This will return the projector to the
normal operating condition.

Ensure that you read the following safeguards when
setting up your projector.
Caution concerning the lamp unit
Potential hazard of glass par-
ticles if lamp ruptures. In case
of lamp rupture, contact your
nearest Sharp Authorized Pro-
jector Dealer or Service Cen-
ter for replacement.
See “Regarding the Lamp” on
page 61.
Caution concerning the setup of the pro-
jector
For minimal servicing and to maintain high
image quality, SHARP recommends that this
projector be installed in an area free from hu-
midity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the
projector is subjected to these environments,
the vents and lens must be cleaned more
often. As long as the projector is regularly
cleaned, use in these environments will not
reduce the overall operation life of the unit.
Internal cleaning should only be performed
by a Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or
Service Center.
Do not set up the projector in places ex-
posed to direct sunlight or bright light.
Position the screen so that it is not in direct
sunlight or room light. Light falling directly on
the screen washes out the colors, making
viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim
the lights when setting up the screen in a
sunny or bright room.
The projector may be safely tilted to a
maximum angle of 9 degrees.
Placement should be within ±9 degrees of
horizontal.
When using the projector in high-altitude
areas such as mountains (at altitudes of
approximately 1,500 meters (4,900 feet)
or more)
When you use the projector in high-altitude
areas with thin air, set “Fan Mode” to “High”.
Neglecting this can affect the longevity of the
optical system.
Warning about placing the projector in a
high position
When placing the projector in a high posi-
tion, make certain it is carefully secured to
avoid personal injury caused by the projec-
tor falling down.
Do not subject the projector to hard im-
pact and/or vibration.
Take care with the lens so as not to hit or
damage the surface of the lens.
Rest your eyes occasionally.
Continuously watching the screen for long
hours will cause eye strain. Take regular
breaks to rest your eyes.
Avoid locations with extremes of tem-
perature.
The operating temperature of the projector
is from 41°F to 95°F (+5°C to +35°C).
The storage temperature of the projector is
from –4°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C).
Do not block the intake and exhaust
vents.
Allow at least 7 7/8inches (20 cm) of space
between the exhaust vent and the nearest
wall or obstruction.
Ensure that the intake vent and the exhaust
vent are not obstructed.
If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro-
tection circuit will automatically put the pro-
jector into standby mode to prevent overheat
damage. This does not indicate a malfunc-
tion (see pages 59 and 60). Remove the pro-
jector power cord from the wall outlet and wait
at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where
the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked,
plug the power cord back in and turn on the
projector. This will return the projector to the
normal operating condition.

Introduction
Using the Remote Control
Inserting the Batteries
1
Pull down the tab on the cover and
remove the cover towards the di-
rection of the arrow.
2Insert the included batteries.
•Insert the batteries making sure the po-
larities correctly match the and
marks inside the battery compartment.
3Insert the lower tab of the cover
into the opening, and lower the
cover until it clicks in place.
Incorrect use of the batteries may cause them to leak or explode. Please follow the precautions below.
Caution
•Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with alkaline or manganese batteries.
•Insert the batteries making sure the polarities correctly match the and marks inside the battery compart-
ment.
•Batteries of different types have different properties, therefore do not mix batteries of different types.
•Do not mix new and old batteries.
This may shorten the life of new batteries or may cause old batteries to leak.
•Remove the batteries from the remote control once they have run out, as leaving them in can cause them to leak.
Battery fluid from leaked batteries is harmful to skin, therefore ensure you wipe them first and then remove them
using a cloth.
•The batteries included with this projector may run down in a short period, depending on how they are kept. Be
sure to replace them as soon as possible with new batteries.
•Remove the batteries from the remote control if you will not be using the remote control for a long time.
•Comply with the rules (ordinance) of each local government when disposing of worn-out batteries.
Usable Range
The remote control can be used to control
the projector within the ranges shown in the

Ensure that you read the following safeguards when
setting up your projector.
Caution concerning the lamp unit
Potential hazard of glass par-
ticles if lamp ruptures. In case
of lamp rupture, contact your
nearest Sharp Authorized Pro-
jector Dealer or Service Cen-
ter for replacement.
See “Regarding the Lamp” on
page 61.
Caution concerning the setup of the pro-
jector
For minimal servicing and to maintain high
image quality, SHARP recommends that this
projector be installed in an area free from hu-
midity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the
projector is subjected to these environments,
the vents and lens must be cleaned more
often. As long as the projector is regularly
cleaned, use in these environments will not
reduce the overall operation life of the unit.
Internal cleaning should only be performed
by a Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or
Service Center.
Do not set up the projector in places ex-
posed to direct sunlight or bright light.
Position the screen so that it is not in direct
sunlight or room light. Light falling directly on
the screen washes out the colors, making
viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim
the lights when setting up the screen in a
sunny or bright room.
The projector may be safely tilted to a
maximum angle of 9 degrees.
Placement should be within ±9 degrees of
horizontal.
When using the projector in high-altitude
areas such as mountains (at altitudes of
approximately 1,500 meters (4,900 feet)
or more)
When you use the projector in high-altitude
areas with thin air, set “Fan Mode” to “High”.
Neglecting this can affect the longevity of the
optical system.
Warning about placing the projector in a
high position
When placing the projector in a high posi-
tion, make certain it is carefully secured to
avoid personal injury caused by the projec-
tor falling down.
Do not subject the projector to hard im-
pact and/or vibration.
Take care with the lens so as not to hit or
damage the surface of the lens.
Rest your eyes occasionally.
Continuously watching the screen for long
hours will cause eye strain. Take regular
breaks to rest your eyes.
Avoid locations with extremes of tem-
perature.
The operating temperature of the projector
is from 41°F to 95°F (+5°C to +35°C).
The storage temperature of the projector is
from –4°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C).
Do not block the intake and exhaust
vents.
Allow at least 7 7/8inches (20 cm) of space
between the exhaust vent and the nearest
wall or obstruction.
Ensure that the intake vent and the exhaust
vent are not obstructed.
If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro-
tection circuit will automatically put the pro-
jector into standby mode to prevent overheat
damage. This does not indicate a malfunc-
tion (see pages 59 and 60). Remove the pro-
jector power cord from the wall outlet and wait
at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where
the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked,
plug the power cord back in and turn on the
projector. This will return the projector to the
normal operating condition.

vent are not obstructed.
If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro-
tection circuit will automatically put the pro-
jector into standby mode to prevent overheat
damage. This does not indicate a malfunc-
tion (see pages 59 and 60). Remove the pro-
jector power cord from the wall outlet and wait
at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where
the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked,
plug the power cord back in and turn on the
projector. This will return the projector to the
normal operating condition.

•This projector may not be able to display images from notebook computers in simultaneous (CRT/LCD)
mode. Should this occur, turn off the LCD display on the notebook computer and output the display data
in ÒCRT onlyÓ mode. Details on how to change display modes can be found in your notebook computerÕs
operation manual.
•When this projector receives 640×350 VESA format VGA signals, Ò640×400Ó appears on the screen.
•When projecting the RGB interlace signal using COMPUTER/COMPONENT 1, 2 or DVI-D with ÒSignal TypeÓ
set to ÒAutoÓ or ÒRGBÓ, the image may not be projected as desired. In this case, use either Video or S-Video.
•Depending on the computer you are using, the output signal may not be faithful to the ÒScreen resolutionÓ
adjustment. Check the settings of the computerÕs signal output. If the settings cannot be changed, it is recom-
mended that the resolution be set to the one that corresponds to Ò1280×800Ó.
