■ When a replacement lamp unit is used (for portrait mode), install it with the terminals surface facing down
Do not use the projector tilted to the right and left, front and back.
Using the projector at an angle that exceeds 15^ in either direction may reduce product life or result in malfunction.
■ Cautions when setting up the projector
- When installing and using the projector with a method other than the floor standing installation using the adjustable feet, fix the projector using the six screw holes for ceiling mounting (see the figure below). (Screw diameter: M6, tapping depth inside the set: 30 mm (1-3/16"), torque: 4 ± 0.5 N·m)

- Make a clearance of at least 5 mm (0.2") between the projector bottom and setting surface by inserting spacers (metallic) etc. between them.

Please ensure the inflow of air into the air intake port. This could be a reason for the projector to not work properly.
● The adjustable feet can be removed if not needed in the installation. However, do not use the screw holes where the adjustable feet was removed to fix the projector in place.
Also, do not install other screws not specified in the instruction manuals of accessories in the adjustable feet's screw holes.
Doing so may damage the set.
- Use the adjustable feet only for the floor standing installation and for adjusting the angle. Using it for other purposes may damage the set.
- Do not stack projectors on top of each other.
- Do not use the projector tilted at an angle that exceeds ± 15^ from the horizontal plane.
● Prevent hot and cool air from the air conditioning system to blow directly to the ventilation ports (intake and exhaust) of the projector.
- Do not block the ventilation ports (intake and exhaust) of the projector.

Precautions for use
500 mm (20") or more 500 mm (20") or more 500 mm (20") or more

- Do not install the projector in a confined space.
When it is necessary to install the projector in a confined space, install the air conditioning or ventilation separately. Exhaust heat may accumulate when the ventilation is not enough, triggering the protection circuit of the projector.

Disposal
To dispose of the product, ask your local authorities or dealer for correct methods of disposal.
The lamp contains mercury. When disposing of used lamp units, contact your local authorities or dealer for correct methods of disposal.
Cautions on use
■ To get a good picture quality
In order to view a beautiful image in higher contrast, prepare an appropriate environment. Draw curtains or blinds over windows and turn off any lights near the screen to prevent outside light or light from indoor lamps from shining onto the screen.
■ Do not touch the surface of the projection lens with your bare hands.
If the surface of the projection lens becomes dirty from fingerprints or anything else, this will be magnified and projected onto the screen. Please put the lens cover (accessory) on the projector when you do not use it.
DLP chips
- The DLP chips are precision-made. Note that in rare cases, pixels of high precision could be missing or always lit. This is not a malfunction.
- Directing a high-power laser beam onto the lens surface can damage the DLP chips.
- Do not move the projector while it is operating or subject it to vibration or impact.
Doing so may shorten the service life of its internal components.
Lamp
The luminous source of the projector is a high-pressure mercury lamp.
A high-pressure mercury lamp has the following characteristics.
● The luminance of the lamp will decrease by duration of usage.
- The lamp may burst with a loud sound or have its service life shortened because of shock, chipping, or degradation due to cumulative operating time.
- The lamp life varies greatly depending on individual differences and usage conditions. In particular, frequent on/off switching of the power greatly deteriorate the lamp and affect the lamp life.
- Continuous use for over 1 week will deteriorate the lamp. The degradation of the lamp due to continuous usage can be reduced by lamp relay function. (→ page 101)
- In rare cases, the lamps burst shortly after projection starts.
- The risk of bursting increases when the lamp is used beyond its replacement cycle. Make sure to replace the lamp unit regularly.
("When to replace the lamp unit" (→ page 148), "Replacing the lamp unit" (→ page 148))
- If the lamp bursts, gas contained inside of the lamp is released in a form of smoke.
- It is recommended that you store replacement lamp units for contingency.
■ Viewing 3D video (PT-DZ21KE and PT-DS20KE only)
The projector can display 3D video signals that are input by the "simultaneous", "frame packing method", and "side by side" methods. You are required to prepare external devices for viewing 3D video (such as 3D Eyewear, video signal output devices) which are suitable for your 3D system. For connections of the projector and external devices, see the instructions of external devices you use. Refer to "List of 3D compatible signals" (→ page 169) for the types of 3D video signals that can be used with the projector.

Adjusting the lens mounter when the focus is unbalanced
Focus balance
●Relationship between the tilt of the lens and the screen focus surface
When the projection lens is tilted in contrast with the image forming surface, tilting the front side (screen side) of the projection lens downwards (in the direction of the dotted arrow line), the upper side of the screen focus surface will tilt inwards and the lower side will tilt outwards.

Figure 1 A diagram showing the effect of lens tilting
How to adjust the focus balance (adjustment by tilting the lens mounter)
When the entire screen surface is not uniform even if the lens focus has been adjusted, the lens mounter has focus adjustment screws in 3 locations.
●Lens mounter structure
The lens mount bracket can be moved back and forth by turning focus adjustment screws (a), (b), and (c). Also, tightening the fixed screws locks the lens mount bracket in place so it does not move.

(Focus adjustment screws (a), (b), and (c) are adjusted with the lens attached.)
Figure 2 Front view diagram of the lens mounter (as seen from the screen side)
Projecting
When a projection lens with a large weight is installed, or when the projector is installed in an inclination, the lens may tilt and the focus may become unbalanced. In these cases, refer to Figure 3 and the adjustment examples in the table below, and perform adjustments through the following procedures.
●Adjustment procedure
1) Press the
2) Shift the focus of the entire screen once pressing ▼.
3) Press ▲ to stop on any part of the screen to be the first just focus point.
● For the location where focus is shifted in this state, the just focus point is in the inner side of the screen.
4) Loosen the fixed screws in the position relative to the location where the focus is shifted the most (the location where the just focus point is shifted the most towards the inner side in Step 2)) up to two rotations (see Figure 3).
Attention
- Turn screws clockwise in 2 locations, or at least in 1 location to be adjusted.
5) Little by little, turn the focus adjustment screws corresponding to the locations in the table below counter clockwise and stop where the image is in focus (→ page 55).
- If the screws are turned counter clockwise, the tilt of the lens will change (see Figure 1) by moving the lens mount bracket of the lens mounter forward (screen side), and in the projected image on the screen, the adjustment screws and the focus point in the opposite direction will move from the inner side of the screen to the outside.
6) Press the
7) Perform focus adjustment again near the center of the screen and if it is still not enough, fine tune the amount of rotation of the adjustment screws.
8) When adjustments have been made, securely tighten the loosened fixed screws.
9) Adjust the focus again using the remote control.
● Tool used: Hex driver or allen wrench (diagonal 2.5 mm (0.1"))

Note
- The [BRIGHT ADJUST] function makes it harder to notice the black level of the part of the image overlapping getting brighter when multiple screens are set using [EDGE BLENDING]. The optimal point of the correction is set by adjusting [BRIGHT INSIDE] so the black level of the overlapping image area will be the same level as the non-overlapping area.
If the bordering part of the part where the image is overlapping and the non-overlapping part gets brighter after adjusting [BRIGHT INSIDE], adjust the width of the top, bottom, left, or right. Adjust [BRIGHT OUTSIDE] when the width adjustment makes only the border area darker.
- The joining part may look discontinuous depending on the position you are looking from when a screen with high gain or rear screen is used.
- When horizontal and vertical edge blending are used simultaneously, adjust [BRIGHT BLENDING] before the Step 11) adjustment.
● To use either horizontal or vertical edge blending only, set all values of [BRIGHT BLENDING] to 0. - The [AUTO TESTPATTERN] settings change in conjunction with the [AUTO TESTPATTERN] in [COLOR MATCHING].

- If the shutter is closed within approx. 10 minutes from the time that the lamp turns on when operating with the [MODE] in [BRIGHTNESS CONTROL SETUP] set to [AUTO] or [PC], brightness may be corrected approx. two minutes after the shutter opens because brightness could not be measured.
- When operating with the [MODE] in [BRIGHTNESS CONTROL SETUP] set to [AUTO] or [PC], lamp brightness is automatically measured eight minutes after a lamp is turned on, and corrected to the same value as the screen brightness and the standard
brightness at the time of [APPLY]. Lamp brightness cannot be measured during the eight minutes after it is turned on because it is not steady.
- When [LAMP SELECT] is 2 lit or higher and the [MODE] in [BRIGHTNESS CONTROL SETUP] is operating in [AUTO] and a light fails to turn on or LAMP RELAY is performed, brightness is corrected one minute later whenever possible.
- When operating with [MODE] in [BRIGHTNESS CONTROL SETUP] set to [AUTO], and [LINK] is [OFF], brightness correction is performed until correction exceeds the maximum correction amount.
- In certain projector environments, dust may accumulate on the lens or screen or inside the projector and increase variation in brightness.
- Adjust luminance control again when lamp degradation causes increased variation in brightness or a lamp is replaced.

- Use in cases such as when the synchronizing frequency of a signal to be input has changed slightly, or multiple signal lists are registered.
- Can only be used when a signal is input from the
terminal, terminal, terminal, or terminal. - When [WIDE] is set, the image may appear distorted because a signal is determined to be the same signal even if a synchronizing frequency changes slightly.
- When a signal to be input corresponds to the signal set in [WIDE], a registered signal with a high memory number receives priority. Example: a signal to be input that corresponds to memory numbers A2, A4 and B1 will be determined to be B1.
- When a registration signal is deleted, the settings are also deleted.
- In an environment where multiple types of signals are input to the same terminal, signals are sometimes not determined correctly when settings are set to [WIDE].
Managing the sub memory list
The projector has a sub memory function that can register the multiple image adjustment data, even if it is recognized as the same signal by the frequency or format of the synchronization signal source. Use this function when you need to adjust the picture quality such as switching of the aspect ratio or white balance by the same synchronization signal source. The sub memory includes all the data that can be adjusted for each signal, such as the screen aspect ratio and data adjusted in the [PICTURE] item ([CONTRAST], [BRIGHTNESS], etc.).

Maintenance/replacement
Note
● The model numbers of accessories and optional components are subject to change without notice.
When to replace the lamp unit
The lamp unit is a consumable component. Since its brightness gradually decreases over time, it is necessary to replace it regularly. The estimated duration before replacement is 2 000 hours. However, this may be shortened depending on individual lamp characteristics, usage conditions, and the installation environment.
Therefore, it is strongly recommended that a replacement lamp unit be prepared. The unit can damage the projector if it has not been replaced after 2 000 hours of usage. Thus, the lamp automatically turns off after approximately ten minutes.
If the cumulative operating time of all 4 lamp unit bulbs exceeds 2 000 hours, the power will be switch off after about 10 minutes.

| Over 1 800 hours | The message is displayed for 30 seconds. Pressing any button on the control panel or remote control within 30 seconds will clear the message. | Lights in red even during the standby mode. |
| Over 2 000 hours | The message remains displayed until you press a button. |
Note
- To predict when to replace the lamp, check the lamp cumulative operating hours displayed in [LAMP1] - [LAMP4] (→ page 109) of [STATUS].
● The usage period of 2 000 hours is a rough estimate and is not guaranteed. - The guide for replacing the replacement lamp unit (for portrait mode) is 500 hours. The on-screen message for replacing the lamp appears after 300 hours.
Replacing the lamp unit
Attention

*1: Signals with a √ in the Plug and Play columns are signals described in the projector's EDID (extended display identification data). If a signal has no √ in the Plug and play columns but has an entry in the Format column, it can be entered. For signals without a √ in the Plug and play columns, there are instances that resolution cannot be selected in the computer even though the projector supports them.
*2: Signals that show formats are as follows.
V: Video, Y/C
D: DVI-D
H: HDMI
R: RGB
Y: YC B C R /YP B P R
SDI: SDI (only for PT-DZ21KE, PT-DS20KE)
*3: When a 1125 (1035)/60i signal was input, it is displayed as a 1125 (1080)/60i signal.
*4: VESA CVT-RB (Reduced Blanking) compatible
*5: Only for PT-DW17KE
*6: Only for PT-DZ21KE
*7: Samples the pixels in the image processing circuit and projects the image.
*8: SDI 1 only
*9: For dual link connections only
*10: For single link connections only
Note
- There are 1 920 x 1 200 display dots for PT-DZ21KE, 1 400 x 1 050 for PT-DS20KE, and 1 366 x 768 for PT-DW17KE.
A signal with a different resolution is converted to the number of display dots and displayed.
- The "i" at the end of the resolution indicates an interlaced signal.
- When interlaced signals are connected, flickering may occur on the projected image.

Ceiling mount bracket safeguards
- When installing the projector to a ceiling, be sure to use the specified ceiling mount bracket (Model No.: ET-PKD510H (for high ceilings), ET-PKD510S (for low ceilings)).
- When installing the projector, attach the drop-prevention set included with the ceiling mount bracket to the projector.
If you need the drop-prevention set (hex bolt with washer (M10 x 40), wire rope: TTRA0143) separately, consult your dealer. - Request for a qualified technician to do the installation.
- Panasonic takes no responsibility for any damage to the projector resulting from use of a ceiling mount bracket not manufactured by Panasonic or the inappropriate choice of location for installation, even if the warranty period of the projector has not expired.
● Unused products must be removed promptly by a qualified technician. - Referring to the screw holes for ceiling mount diagram below, use screws of sufficient length to reach the imbedded nuts.
- Use a torque screwdriver or Allen torque wrench to tighten bolts to their specified tightening torques. Do not use tools such as electric screwdrivers or impact screwdrivers.
- For details, read the installation manual that comes with the ceiling mount bracket.
