6Precautions
Precautions
On safety
• Check that the operating voltage of your
unit is identical with the voltage of your
local power supply.
• Should any liquid or solid object fall into
the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it
checked by qualified personnel before
operating it further.
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is
not to be used for several days.
• To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the
plug. Never pull the cord itself.
• The wall outlet should be near the unit and
easily accessible.
• The unit is not disconnected to the AC
power source (mains) as long as it is
connected to the wall outlet, even if the
unit itself has been turned off.
• Do not look into the lens while in use.
• Do not place your hand or objects near the
ventilation holes. The air coming out is
hot.
On preventing internal heat build-
up
After you turn off the power with the ?/1
(ON/STANDBY) button, do not disconnect
the unit from the wall outlet while the
cooling fan is still running.
Caution
This unit is equipped with ventilation holes
(intake/exhaust). Do not block or place
anything near these holes, or internal heat
build-up may occur, causing picture
degradation or damage to the unit.
On repacking
Save the original shipping carton and
packing material; they will come in handy if
you ever have to ship your unit. For
maximum protection, repack your unit as it
was originally packed at the factory.
On watching 3D video images
Safety precautions
• You should only use the 3D glasses for
watching 3D video images.
• If you observe flickering or flashing, turn
off the lighting in the room.
• Not for use by children without proper
adult supervision.
• Be careful not to pinch your fingers in
hinges of the 3D glasses when bending the
temple frames.
• Do not drop or modify these 3D glasses.
• If these glasses are broken, keep broken
pieces away from your mouth or eyes.
On inspection of light source
related parts
Since the unit uses a laser, when performing
maintenance or inspection of light source
related parts, particular attention and a safe
environment are necessary. Be sure to
consult with qualified Sony personnel
(charged).
On LCD Projector
The LCD projector is manufactured using
high-precision technology. You may,
however, see tiny black points and/or bright
points (red, blue, or green) that continuously
appear on the LCD projector. This is a
normal result of the manufacturing process
and does not indicate a malfunction.
Also, when you use multiple LCD projectors
to project onto a screen, even if they are of
the same model, the color reproduction
among projectors may vary, since color
balance may be set differently from one
projector to the next.
On condensation
If the room temperature where the projector
is installed changes rapidly, or if the
projector is moved suddenly from a cold to a
warm place, condensation in the projector
may occur. As the condensation may cause
malfunction, be careful in adjusting
temperature settings of the air conditioner. If
condensation occurs, leave the projector
turned on for about four hours before use.

8Notes on Installation and Usage
Hot and humid
On a long fluffy carpet
There are the ventilation holes on the bottom
of the unit. It may cause a malfunction if the
the ventilation holes are blocked.
Very dusty and extremely smoky
locations
Other Note
• Air from air conditioners or the ventilation
holes of this unit or other devices, may
cause oscillation on the projection surface.
Be sure not to install this unit in the area
where the air from air conditioners or the
ventilation holes of these devices reach to
the lens part of this unit.
• The top cover of the projector opens and
closes. If you place something beside the
unit, place it at a distance more than 1 mm
from the unit.
• If there is debris, sand, etc. in the legs of
the unit, the floor may be damaged.
Do not do any of the following while using
the unit.
Blocking the ventilation holes (intake
or exhaust)
Tilting front/rear and left/right
Do not install the unit anywhere other than
on a level surface. Installing the unit in such
a location may result in uneven color
uniformity or reduce the reliability of the
effects of the light.
If the unit is installed with inclining back
and forth, the picture shape on the projection
surface is trapezoidal. Install the unit so that
the unit and projection surface are arranged
in parallel.
When installing the unit at high
altitudes
When using the unit at an altitude of
1,500 m (approx. 4,900 ft) or higher, set
“Cooling Setting” on the Setup menu to
“High”. Failing to set this mode when using
the unit at high altitudes could have adverse
effects, such as reducing the reliability of
certain components.

Installing the Unit / Adjusting the Projection Image
Connections and Preparations
Installing the Unit
The installation distance between the unit
and a projection surface varies depending on
the projection size and whether or not you
use the zoom features. Install this unit so that
it fits the desired projection size.
For details on the distance between the unit
and the projection surface (the projection
distance) and the size of projected video, see
“Installation Distance and Projection Image
Size” (page 68).
1Position the unit so that the unit is
parallel to the projection surface.
Top view
2Project an image on the projection
surface and adjust the picture so that it
fits the projection surface (page 15).
• When using a projection surface with an
uneven surface, stripes may rarely appear on
the projection surface depending on the
distance between the projection surface and
the unit or the zooming magnifications. This
is not a malfunction of the unit.
• The projection picture may be distorted if the
projection surface is not flat.
Adjusting the
Projection Image
Project an image on the projection surface
and then adjust the projection image.
Tips
• The ?/1(ON/STANDBY), INPUT, MENU,
and M/m/</,/ (joystick) buttons on
the front panel of the unit function the same
as those on the remote control. The LENS
button functions in the same way as the
LENS ADJUSTMENT (ZOOM, FOCUS,
CORNER CORRECTION) buttons of the
remote control.
