Setting up the Screen

Position the projector perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level to achieve an optimal image.

Notes

• The projector lens should be perpendicular (square-on) to the screen. If the horizontal line passing through the lens center is not perpendicular to the screen, the image will be distorted, making viewing difficult.
• For an optimal image, 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 curtains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room.
• A polarizing screen cannot be used with this projector.

Standard Setup (Front Projection)

■ Place the projector at the required distance from the screen according to the desired picture size. (See page 23)

An Example of Standard Setup

Side View

Top View

• The distance from the screen to the projector depends on the size of the screen.
• The default setting can be used, when placing the projector in front of the screen. If the projected image is reversed or inverted, readjust the setting to "Front" for "PRJ Mode" in the "Options" menu.
• Place the projector so that an imaginary horizontal line that passes through the center of the lens is perpendicular to the screen.

Notes

2D Lens Shift:

• The vertical display (Biggest) is (+13/20V / -1/2V) screen.
  • The horizontal display (Biggest) is ±3/40 screen. (±15%)
• It is recommended that images be projected onto the dashed line octagonal area for fine image quality.
• There is a tolerance of ± 3% in the formula above.

About the Lamp

The projector lamp has a life of 2000 hours. Maintain proper ventilation to keep the lamp operating throughout its lifetime. Do not subject the projector to unnecessary vibration to ensure that the lamp does not break.

It is recommended that the lamp (sold separately) be replaced after approximately 2,000 cumulative hours of use or when you notice a significant deterioration in the picture and color quality. The number of hours the lamp has been used can be checked with "Lamp Timer" in the "Options" menu on the menu screen.
■ For lamp replacement, please consult your nearest authorized service center or sealer.
■ The actual lamp service life may be less than 2000 hours depending on the environment in which the projector is used.

Caution Concerning the Lamp

This projector uses a pressurized mercury lamp. A loud sound may indicate lamp failure. Lamp failure is caused by excessive shock, improper cooling, surface scratches or deterioration of the lamp due to usage. The period of time up to failure largely varies depending on the individual lamp and/or the condition and the frequency of use. It is important to note that failure can often result in the bulb cracking.
■ When the lamp replacement indicator and on-screen display icon are illuminated or are flashing, it is recommended that the lamp be replaced immediately, even if the lamp appears to be operating normally.
If the lamp breaks glass particles may spread inside the lamp cage or gas contained in the lamp may be vented into the room from the exhaust vent. As the gas in this lamp contains mercury, ventilate the room well if the lamp breaks and avoid all exposure to the released gas. In case of exposure to the gas, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
If the lamp breaks, there is also a possibility that glass particles may spread inside the projector. If this happens, it is recommended you contact your nearest authorized dealer to remove the damaged lamp and assure safe operation.

Note

• 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 "CRT only" mode. Details on how to change display modes can be found in your notebook computer's operation manual.
• When this projector receives 640 × 350 VESA format VGA signals, "640 × 400" appears on the screen.
• When projecting video images of an interlace video signal with the projector, the intended image may not be projected depending on the video signal when using the RBG input. In such cases, use the component input, S-video input or video input.
