On safetyGB 6 Precautions

• Do not use the Security bar for the purpose

of preventing theft for transporting or

installing the unit. If you lift the unit by the

Security bar or hang the unit by this bar, it

may cause the unit to fall and be damaged,

and may result in personal injury.

• Make sure the projector is installed on the

wall securely; otherwise, it may fall and

cause death or serious injury. Be sure to

use Sony’s Projector Wall Mount.

• Be sure to secure the cabinet cover firmly

when installing to the wall firmly.

• Never mount or move the projector by

yourself. Be sure to consult with your

Sony dealer or a qualified installer.

• When installing the unit on a wall or

ceiling, be sure to use a safety wire, etc., to

prevent the unit from falling. Entrust the

installation to a Sony dealer or qualified

• Before installing the unit on a wall or

ceiling, make sure that the mounting

surface is strong enough.

If you install the unit without first

confirming that the mounting surface is

strong enough, the unit may fall.

• When installing the unit, leave space

between any walls, etc. and the unit as

• Avoid using if the unit is tilted more than

15 degrees horizontally.

• Always install the unit horizontally or

vertically. Otherwise the projected image

may be unevenly colored or the lamp life

may be deteriorated.

Safety precautions for

• Avoid using the unit in a location where

the temperature or humidity is very high,

or temperature is very low.

• Avoid installing the unit in a location

subject to direct cool or warm air from an

air-conditioner. Installing in such a

Otherwise, the air filter will become

obstructed, and this may cause a

malfunction of the unit or damage it.

• When using the unit at an altitude of 1,500

m or higher, set “High Altitude Mode” to

“On” in the Installation menu. Failing to

set this mode when using the unit at high

altitudes could have adverse effects, such

as reducing the reliability of certain

• Be sure to disconnect the AC power cord

from the AC outlet before cleaning.

• If you rub on the unit with a stained cloth,

the cabinet may be scratched.

• If the unit is exposed to volatile materials

such as insecticide, or the unit is in contact

with a rubber or vinyl resin product for a

long period of time, the unit may

deteriorate or the coating may come off.

• Do not touch the projection window with

• On cleaning the projection window

Wipe the projection window gently-with a

soft cloth, such as a glass cleaning cloth.

Stubborn stains may be removed with a

soft cloth lightly dampened with water.

Never use solvent such as alcohol,

benzene or thinner, or acid, alkaline or

abrasive detergent, or a chemical cleaning

• On cleaning the cabinet:

Clean the cabinet gently with a soft cloth.

Stubborn stains may be removed with a

soft cloth lightly dampened with mild

detergent solution and wrung, followed by

wiping with a soft dry cloth. Never use

solvent such as alcohol, benzene or

thinner, or acid, alkaline or abrasive

detergent, or a chemical cleaning cloth.

To obtain the best picture, the front of the

screen should not be exposed to direct

lighting or sunlight.

On cleaning the projection

window and the cabinet

The temperature of the projector’s cabinet

may increase during or immediately after

use; however, this is not a malfunction.

Use a screen with an even surface.

Since the projector is equipped with a fan

inside to prevent internal temperature from

rising, there may be some noise. This is a

normal result of the manufacturing process

and does not indicate a malfunction. If,

however, in a case of abnormal noise,

consult with qualified Sony personnel.

The lamp used as a light source contains

mercury that has high internal pressure. A

high-pressure mercury lamp has the

following characteristics:

• Brightness of the lamp will be lowered as

the elapse of time used.

• The lamp may break with a loud noise as a

result of shock, damage, or deterioration

caused by the elapse of time. The lamp

may become unlit and may burn out.

• The lamp life varies with individual

differences or usage conditions of each

lamp. Therefore, it may break or will not

light even before the specified

• It may possibly break after the

replacement time has elapsed. Replace the

lamp with a new one as soon as possible if

a message displayed on the projected

image, even if the lamp normally lights.

This unit is precision equipment. When

carrying the unit, do not subject the unit to

shocks, or fall. It may damage the unit.

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.

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 two hours before use.

In the desktop mode, by using the Interactive Pen Device (main: IFU-PN250A, sub: IFU-

PN250B) and the application Interactive Presentation Utility 2, this projector can be used more

effectively for a wide range of purposes.

Using the mouse function of the Interactive Pen Device (main only), you can control a

computer and applications on the projected screen just like a mouse. Also when employing the

drawing function of a different application, you can use the Interactive Pen Device to directly

draw onto the projected file, and save the drawings.

How to operate the mouse function of the Interactive Pen Device (main only)

• Left-click: tap the screen with the tip of the Interactive Pen Device.

• Double-click: tap the screen twice with the tip of the Interactive Pen Device.

• Drag and drop: move the Interactive Pen Device while touching the screen.

By starting Interactive Presentation Utility 2, you can use the Interactive Pen Device to draw

lines and shapes on the projected screen. In the whiteboard mode, the projected screen can be

used as an electronic whiteboard and you can select the background image from your photo

library or the template.

By using both the main and sub Interactive Pen Device, two people can draw on the projected

screen simultaneously. The main device can use all the functions, whereas the sub device can

use only the drawing function.
