• 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. For dealers

• 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 installer.

• 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 illustrated.

• 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 installing the unit On Installation More than 10 cm (4 inches)More than 30 cm (11

• 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 location may cause malfunction of the unit due to moisture condensation or rise in temperature.

• Avoid installing the unit in a location near a heat or smoke sensor. Installing in such a location may cause malfunction of the sensor.

• Avoid installing the unit in a very dusty or extremely smoky environment. 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 components.

• Set “Installation Attitude” on the Installation menu correctly to suit to the Installation angle. Continuing to use the wrong setting may affect component reliability.

• 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 bare hands.

• On cleaning the projection window surface: 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 cloth.

• 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 On IlluminationGB 8 Precautions 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 replacement time.

• 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.
