■Security cautions for using the wireless LAN product

The advantage of a wireless LAN is that information can be exchanged between a PC or other such equipment and an access point using radio waves as long as you are within range for radio transmissions.

On the other hand, because the radio waves can travel through obstacles (such as walls) and are available everywhere within a given range, problems of the type listed below may occur if security-related settings are not made sufficiently.

- Communication content leak

The following communication information may be leaked by a malicious third party who intentionally intercept the transmitted data.

- Personal information such as your ID, password, and/or credit card numbers

-The e-mail content

• Unauthorized access

A malicious third party may access your personal or corporate network without authorization and engage in the following types of behavior.

- Retrieve personal and/or secret information (information leak)

• Spread false information by impersonating a particular person (spoofing)
• Overwrite intercepted communications and issue false data (tampering)
• Spread harmful software such as a computer virus and crash your data and/or system (system crash)

Since most wireless LAN adapters or access points are equipped with security features to take care of these problems, you can reduce the possibility of these problems occurring when using this product by making the appropriate security settings for the wireless LAN device.

Some wireless LAN devices may not be set for security immediately after purchase. To decrease the possibility of occurrence of security problems, before using any wireless LAN devices, be absolutely sure to make all security-related settings according to the instructions given in the operation manuals supplied with them.

Depending on the specifications of the wireless LAN, a malicious third party may be able to break security settings by special means.

Panasonic advises customers to thoroughly understand the risk of using this product without making security settings, and recommends that the customers make security settings at their own discretion and responsibility.

Notes on using wireless connection

Wireless connection function of the projector uses radio waves in the 2.4 GHz band.

A radio station license is not required, but be sure to read and fully understand the following items before use.

The wireless module (Model No.: ET-WML100) of optional accessories must be installed when you want to use the wireless LAN function of the projector.

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 lamp from shining onto the screen.

■Do not touch the surface of the projector 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.

It is recommended to attach the supplied lens cap to the projection lens when you do not use the projector.

■LCD panel

The LCD panel is precision-made. Note that in rare cases, pixels of high precision could be missing or always lit. Note that such phenomena do not indicate malfunction. If still images are projected for a long time, a residual image may remain on the LCD panel. Note that the residual image may not disappear.

■Optical parts

When the operating environment temperature is high or in environments where lots of dust, cigarette smoke, etc. is present, the replacement cycle of the LCD panel, polarizing plate and other optical parts may be shorter even if used for less than one year. Consult your dealer for details.

■Luminous lamp

The light source of the projector is a mercury lamp with high internal pressure.

A high-pressure mercury lamp has the following characteristics.

• The luminance of the luminous lamp will decrease by duration of usage.
• The luminous lamp may burst with a loud sound or have its service life shortened because of shock, chipping, or degradation due to cumulative runtime.
• The life of the luminous lamp varies greatly depending on individual specificities and usage conditions. In particular, continuous use over 12 hours and frequent switching off/on of the power greatly deteriorate the luminous lamp and affect the luminous lamp life.
• In rare cases, the luminous lamp burst shortly after the projection.
• The risk of bursting increases when the luminous lamp is used beyond its replacement cycle. Make sure to replace the lamp unit consistently. ("When to replace the lamp unit" (→ page 118), "Replacing the lamp unit" (→ page 118))
• If the luminous lamp bursts, gas contained inside of the luminous lamp is released in a form of smoke.

Chapter 2 Getting Started

This chapter describes things you need to do before using the projector such as the setup and connections.

Setting up

Installation mode

There are four ways to set up the projector. Set the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [PROJECTION METHOD] (→ page 75) depending on the installation location.

Setting on a desk/floor and projecting forward Setting on a desk/floor		or and projecting from rear(Using the translucent screen)
Menu item Method Menu item Method
[PROJECTION METHOD]	[AUTO] or [FRONT/DESK]	[PROJECTION METHOD]	[REAR/DESK]
Mounting on the ceiling and projecting forward Mounting on the ceiling		ing and projecting from rear(Using the translucent screen)
Menu item Method Menu item Method
[PROJECTION METHOD]	[AUTO] or [FRONT/CEILING]	[PROJECTION METHOD]	[REAR/CEILING]

Note

- The projector has a built-in angle sensor. The attitude of the projector is automatically detected by setting the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu [PROJECTION METHOD] to [AUTO]. For rear projection, set the [PROJECTION METHOD] to [REAR/DESK] or [REAR/CEILING].

■ Angle sensor

The range of installation posture detected by the projector's built-in angle sensor is as follows.

In case of [AUTO], when the projector is placed with the top side upward within ±40^ from the horizontal plane, it will switch to [FRONT/DESK] automatically; when the projector is placed with the top side downward within ±30^ from the horizontal plane, it will switch to [FRONT/CEILING] automatically.

[FRONT/DESK] 40° 40° 30° 30° [FRONT/CEILING] : Projection direction

In the case of [AUTO], it will be detected as [FRONT/DESK] even when the projector tilts over ±40^ with the top side upward or over ±30^ with the top side downward. To use the projector that tilts over ±30^ with the top side downward, set the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [PROJECTION METHOD] to [FRONT/CEILING] or [REAR/CEILING] instead of [AUTO].

However, do not use the projector when it exceeds ±40^ with respect to the horizontal plane. Doing so may shorten the life of the parts.

Connecting

Before connecting

• Before connecting, carefully read the operating instructions for the external device to be connected.
• Turn off the power switch of the devices before connecting cables.
  • Take note of the following points before connecting the cables. Failure to do so may result in malfunctions.
• When connecting a cable to a device connected to the projector or the projector itself, touch any nearby metallic objects to eliminate static electricity from your body before performing work.
• Do not use unnecessarily long cables to connect to a device connected to the projector or to the projector body. The longer the cable, the more it is susceptible to noise. Since using a cable while it is wound makes it act like an antenna, it is more susceptible to noise.
• When connecting cables, connect GND first, then insert the connecting terminal of the connecting device in a straight manner.
• If any connection cable is not supplied with the device, or if no optional cable is available for connection of the device, prepare a necessary system connection cable to suit the device.
• Video signals containing too much jitter may cause the images on the screen to randomly wobble or wafture. In this case, a time base corrector (TBC) must be connected.
• The projector accepts VIDEO signals, Y/C signals, YOCB / YPB P_R signals and analog RGB signals (synchronous signals are TTL level), and digital signal.
• Some computer models or graphics cards are not compatible with the projector.
• When using long cables to connect with each of equipment to the projector, there is a possibility that the image will not be output correctly unless a compensator is used.
• For details on what video signals the projector supports, see "List of compatible signals". (→ page 128)

When the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [ECO MANAGEMENT] → [STANDBY MODE] is set to [ECO], use of some functions is restricted, but the power consumption during standby can be conserved.

Direct Power Off function

When the plug is disconnected from the outlet or the power is turned off by the circuit breaker in the ceiling mount case while the projection is going on, the projector can respond with direct power off function. Therefore, it is also safe in case a power outage occurs or the power cord is pulled out immediately after the projector is switched off.

Attention

• Do not disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet or turn off the circuit breaker switch in a short time (about 1 minute) after the luminous lamp is lit. Doing so may cause the luminous lamp to fail to light when you power on the projector next time, or result in premature deterioration of the luminous lamp.
• If you turn the power off with the direct power off function with the projector installed upside-down, or if you turn the projector upside-down after turning off the power using the direct power off function, do not put your hands or objects close to the air inlet (bottom) due to the back flow of heated air from the air inlet(bottom). It may cause burns, injuries or deformation.

Note

• When using the Direct Power Off function, you cannot restart the projector immediately after disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet or turning off the breaker switch. The luminous lamp remains high temperature and needs to cool down, so it sometimes takes a longer time than usual for the luminous lamp to light up again.
• If the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [INITIAL STARTUP] is set to [LAST MEMORY] and the projector was turned off by using the circuit breaker directly while projecting during the last time of use, the power indicator will light in green a while after the circuit breaker is turned on, and then projection of the image will start.

Check for fluctuation (or drop) in the source voltage.
Remedy ●Replace the lamp unit.		●Wait a while until the luminous lamp cools off, and then turn on the power.	●Turn off the projector, and unplug the AC power cord, and consult your dealer.

Note

- If the lamp indicator is still lighting or blinking after taking the preceding measures, ask your dealer for repair.

Warning indicator

Indicator status	Lighting in red	Blinking in red	Blinking in red (Slow)
Status	The air filter is clogged, or the internal temperature is high (warning).	The air filter is clogged, or the internal temperature is high (standby status).	The projector detects an abnormal condition and cannot be turned on.
Check	•Is the air intake/exhaust port blocked?•Is the room temperature high?•Is the air filter unit dirty?		-
Remedy	•Remove any objects that are blocking the air intake / exhaust port.Install the projector in a location with an ambient temperature of 0 °C (32 °F) to 40 °C (104 °F)*1.Do not use the projector at high altitudes of 2 700 m (8 858') or higher above sea level.•Replace the air filter unit. (→ page 116)		•If the projector is turned off again, unplug the AC power cord and contact the dealer or the service center for service and checkup.

*1 When using the projector at high altitudes (between 1 400 m (4 593') and 2 700 m (8 858') above sea level), the ambient temperature should be between 0 °C (32 °F) and 30 °C (86 °F).

Note

- If the warning indicator is still lighting or blinking after taking the preceding measures, ask your dealer for repair.

Maintenance/replacement

Before performing maintenance/replacement

• When you perform maintenance or replacement of the parts, make sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet. (→ pages 38)
• Be sure to observe the procedure "Powering off the projector" (→ page 42) when performing power supply operation.

Maintenance

Outer Case

Wipe off dirt and dust using a soft dry cloth.

• If the dirt is persistent, soak the cloth with water and wring it thoroughly before wiping. Dry off the projector with a dry cloth.
• Do not use benzene, thinner or rubbing alcohol, other solvents or household cleaners. Using them may cause deterioration of the outer case.
• When using chemical treated dusters, follow its instruction.

Front glass surface of the lens

Wipe off the dirt and dust off the front surface of the lens with soft clean cloth.

• Do not use a cloth that has an abrasive surface or a cloth that is moist, oily or covered with dust.
• Do not use excessive force when wiping the lens as it is easily scratched.
• Do not use benzene, thinner or rubbing alcohol, other solvents or household cleaners. Using them may cause deterioration of the lens.

Attention

- The lens may be damaged if you hit with a hard object or wipe with excessive force. Please handle with care.

Replacing the unit

Air filter unit

The air filter prevents dust from accumulating on the optical elements inside the projector. Should the air filter become clogged with dust particles, it will reduce cooling fans' effectiveness and may result in internal heat buildup and adversely affect the life of the projector.

Also, if the internal temperature of the unit becomes high, the power of the projector may be turned off to protect internal components.

If a warning message appears on the screen, replace the air filter immediately.

Consult your dealer to purchase a replacement air filter unit (ET-RFV300).

• Do not put anything into the air vents. Doing so may result in malfunction of the projector.
  •The air filter unit to be replaced should be an unused product.

Note

• The time until the air filter is clogged varies greatly depending on the usage environment.
• When the projector is used without resetting the filter counter, the actual filter usage time (counter numeric value) will not be able to be confirmed.

Lamp unit

The lamp unit is a consumable component. Refer to "When to replace the lamp unit" (▶ page 118) for details about the replacement cycle.

It is recommended to ask an authorized engineer to replace the lamp unit. Contact your dealer. Consult your dealer to purchase a replacement lamp unit (ET-LAV300).

Warning

Do not replace the lamp unit when it is hot. (Wait at least 1 hour after use.)

The inside of the cover can become very hot, take care to avoid burn injuries.

Notes on the replacement of the lamp unit

• The luminous source of the lamp is made of glass and may burst if you hit it against a hard surface or drop it. Please handle with care.
• A Phillips screwdriver is required for replacement of the lamp unit.
• When replacing the lamp unit, be sure to hold it by the handle.
• When replacing the lamp because it has stopped illuminating, there is a possibility that the lamp may be broken. If replacing the lamp of a projector which has been installed on the ceiling, you should always assume that the lamp is broken, and you should stand to the side of the lamp cover, not underneath it. Remove the lamp cover gently. Small pieces of glass may fall out when the lamp cover is opened. If pieces of glass get into your eyes or mouth, seek medical advice immediately.
• The luminous lamp may be ruptured. Care should be taken not to scatter pieces of the broken luminous lamp glass when replacing the lamp unit. Pieces of the broken luminous lamp may fall from the lamp unit especially when the projector is mounted on the ceiling, so when replacing the lamp unit do not stand directly underneath it or position your face close to it.
• The luminous lamp contains mercury. Consult your local municipality or your dealer about correct disposal of used lamp units.

Attention

- Panasonic takes no responsibility for any damage or malfunction of the product resulting from use of lamp units which are not manufactured by Panasonic. Use only specified lamp units.

Note

- The model numbers of accessories and optional accessories are subject to change without prior 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 the lamp unit regularly. The estimated duration before replacement is 5 000 hours, but the luminous lamp may go off before 5 000 hours has elapsed depending on individual lamp unit characteristics, usage conditions, and the installation environment. It is recommended that the replacement lamp unit be prepared earlier.

If you continue to use the lamp unit after 5 000 hours has elapsed, the lamp turns off automatically after approximately 10 minutes, as it will cause malfunction of the projector.

Lamp runtime	On-screen displayREPLACE LAMP	Lamp indicator
Over 4 800 hours	The message is displayed for 30 seconds. If you press any button within the 30 seconds, the message disappears.	Lights in red (even in stand-by mode).
Over 5 000 hours	If the power is turned on without replacing the lamp, the power automatically turns off after approximately ten minutes to prevent the malfunction of the projector.

Note

• To predict when to replace the lamp, check the total runtime of the luminous lamp displayed in [TOTAL] in [STATUS] (→ page 74).
• The 5 000 hours of use is a rough guideline, but is not a guarantee. The lamp runtime differs depending on the setting of "LAMP POWER" menu.

Replacing the lamp unit

Attention

• When the projector is mounted on a ceiling, do not work with your face close to the projector.
• Do not loosen other than designated screws.
• Attach the lamp unit and the lamp cover securely.

1) Turn off the power by following the procedure in "Powering off the projector". (→ page 42) Remove the AC power plug from the wall outlet.
- Wait at least 1 hour and make sure the lamp unit and surroundings are cool.
2) Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the lamp cover fixing screw ( × 1) until it turns freely and remove the lamp cover.
- Remove the lamp cover by pulling it slowly toward the direction of the arrow.
3) Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the three lamp unit fixing screws (×3) until they turn freely.
4) Hold the used lamp unit by its handles, and pull it gently from the projector.
5) Insert the new lamp unit in correct direction. Tighten the three lamp unit fixing screws ( ×3 ) securely with a Phillips screwdriver.

- When you experience difficulty in installing the lamp unit, remove it and try again. If you use force to install the lamp unit, the connector may be damaged.

6) Attach the lamp cover. Tighten the lamp cover fixing screw ( × 1) securely with a Phillips screwdriver.

- Perform Step 2) in the reverse order to attach the lamp cover.

Note

- When you replace the lamp unit with a new one, the projector resets the runtime of the lamp unit automatically.
