Notes

  • When the projector is moved from a cold location to a warm location, or when the ambient temperature in the projection room has risen suddenly, moisture may condense on the lens or the mirror to blur the projected pictures. In such a case, leave the projector for an adequate time (1 to 2 hours, depending on the room's condition) before using it so it adjusts to the ambient temperature.
  • If the screen is exposed to direct sunlight or other strong light, the projected picture becomes too faint to see. Shut out the light with curtains or other means.
  • If the screen and the projector are not installed properly, the projected picture may be distorted.
  • If the projector is tilted, the picture may be distorted. To obtain the best possible picture, place the projector so it faces the screen squarely.

How to use the foot adjuster

The tilt of the projector can be adjusted using the foot adjuster.

1) Lift the front of the projector until a tilt angle desired is obtained and hold down the foot adjuster release button.
The foot adjuster will stretch. Release the button to lock in position.

Maintenance

Air filter, lens and main unit cleaning

CAUTION

If you use the projector mounted on the ceiling, ask the dealer to carry out the maintenance such as cleaning.

Cleaning the air filter

The filter under the air filter cover is the device to shut out dusts or dregs.

Do not use the projector with the filter taken off. Give a frequent clean especially to the air filter. (The cleaning period is once per about 50 hours).

1) Unplug the power cord.
2) Take off the air filter cover.

The filter is on the right side of the projector. Pull up the filter tabs.

3) Clean the air filter cover.

Remove dust and stains with a vacuum cleaner.

Cleaner's nozzle

4) Attach the air filter cover.

TOSHIBA TLP-MT3E - Cleaning the air filter - 3

natural_image Line drawing of a mechanical device with ventilation slots and a curved handle (no text or symbols)

Notes

  • When the air filter is dusty, the ventilation is impaired. This causes the temperature inside the projector to rise, and may damage the unit.
  • Attach the air filter cover firmly after the cleaning. If it is not set correctly, the dusts will enter and they will be projected and overlapped on the picture.

Cleaning the lens

Use a blower or a lens cleaner to clean the lens.

Never rub or tap the lens with a hard object as the lens surface is fragile.

Cleaning the main unit

  • Pull out the power cord before cleaning.
  • Use a soft cloth to wipe off stains from the surface.
    • To remove difficult stains, use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a weak solution of synthetic detergent and water, and finish with a soft, dry cloth.

Replacing the intake, exhaust fans and air filter

To maintain the efficiency of the projector, replace the intake and exhaust fans about every two to three years.

Ask the dealer for the replacement.

Maintenance

Lamp replacement

The lamp will eventually begin to project dark or dull pictures and finally will not light up. (Lamp's life length depends on the use condition.) In such a case, replace the lamp with new one.

CAUTION

  • If you use the projector mounted on the ceiling, ask the dealer to carry out the maintenance such as cleaning or replacement of the lamp.
  • When replacing, always use lamp "TLPL8" (sold separately). For detail, refer to TLPL8 instruction.
  • If you have been using the projector, the lamp will be very hot, and may cause burn injuries. Wait for the lamp to cool (for longer than 1 hour) before replacing it.
  • If the lamp should break, please handle with care to avoid injury due to broken pieces and contact your dealer for repair service.

1 Unplug the power cord.

2 Wait until the lamp gets cold enough.

3 Take off the lamp cover on the bottom panel.

Loosen two screws, and pull off the lamp cover.

Notes

  • The projector displays the total working time at every 1,000 hours (only when plugged in and turned on; ex. “ >1000H ”, “ >2000H ”).
  • The lamp should be replaced if the total working time exceeds about 2,000 hours.
  • Attach the lamp cover firmly after replacing the lamp. If it is not set correctly, the power will not turn on.
  • Use a new lamp when replacing it.
  • The lamp is made of glass and is very fragile. Do not touch the lamp with your bare hands and do not jolt or damage it. Do not use an exhausted lamp.

Notes

  • If the mode identification does not define the mode described on the chart above, adjust to the projection details.
  • If the mode identification is carried out correctly, a normal display may be not obtained depending on the signal frequency.
  • SXGA, UXGA signals can be projected since the projector has simplified compatibility with them. (However, letters and lines can be unequal or a part can be missing. Some signals may not be projected at all.)
  • Some computers may have output modes which are not compatible with this projector. Check the compatibility of the connectors, signal levels, timing, and resolutions.
