MAINTENANCE

WARNING TEMP. INDICATOR

WARNING TEMP. Indicator flashes red when an internal temperature of a projector exceeds normal temperature. This Indicator stops flashing when temperature of a projector returns to normal. When WARNING TEMP. Indicator continues to flash, check items listed below.

1 Ventilation Slots of a projector may be blocked. In such an event, reposition a projector so that Ventilation Slots are not obstructed.
2 Air Filter may be clogged with dust particles. Clean Air Filter by following section AIR FILTER CARE AND CLEANING below.
3 If WARNING TEMP. Indicator remains on after performing above checks, Cooling Fans or Internal Circuits may be malfunctioning. Contact service personnel from an authorized dealer or a service station.

AIR FILTER CARE AND CLEANING

Air Filter prevents dust from accumulating on surface of Projection Lens and Projection Mirror. Should Air Filter become clogged with dust particles, it will reduce Cooling Fans' effectiveness and may result in internal heat build up and adversely affect life of a projector. Clean Air Filter following steps below:

1 Turn off a projector, and disconnect AC power cord from AC outlet.
2 Turn a projector upside down and remove Air Filter (2 used) by pulling latches upward.
3 Clean Air Filter with a brush or wash out dust and particles.
4 Replace Air Filter properly. Make sure that Air Filter is fully inserted.

SANYO PLV-70 - AIR FILTER CARE AND CLEANING - 1

CAUTION

Do not operate a projector with Air Filter removed. Dust may accumulate on LCD Panel and Projection Mirror degrading picture quality.

Do not put small parts into Air Intake Vents. It may result in malfunction of a projector.

AIR FILTER

Pull up and remove.

RECOMMENDATION

We recommend avoiding dusty/smoky environments when operating a projector. Usage in these environments may cause poor image quality.

When using under dusty or smoky conditions, dust may accumulate on a lens, liquid crystal panels, or optical elements inside a projector. This condition may degrade quality of a projected image.

When above symptoms are noticed, contact your authorized dealer or service station for proper cleaning.

CLEANING PROJECTION LENS

Follow these steps to clean Projection Lens:

1 Apply a non-abrasive camera lens cleaner to a soft, dry cleaning cloth. Avoid using an excessive amount of cleaner. Abrasive cleaners, solvents or other harsh chemicals might scratch a surface.
2 Lightly wipe a cleaning cloth over Projection Lens.
3 When a projector is not in use, replace Lens Cover.

LAMP HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

This projector uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly. Improper handling may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.

  • Lamp lifetime may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no guarantee of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their lifetime in a shorter period of time than other similar lamps.
  • If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if the LAMP REPLACE INDICATOR lights up, replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the projector has cooled down. (Follow carefully the instructions in the LAMP REPLACEMENT section of this manual.) Continuous use of the lamp with the LAMP REPLACE INDICATOR lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.
  • A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or conditions in which the projector and lamp are being used.

IF A LAMP EXPLODES, THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN.

If a lamp explodes, disconnect the projector's AC plug from the AC outlet immediately. Contact an authorized service station for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp. Additionally, check carefully to ensure that there are no broken shards or pieces of glass around the projector or coming out from the cooling air circulation holes. Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully. No one should check the inside of the projector except those who are authorized trained technicians and who are familiar with projector service. Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those who are not appropriately trained to do so, may result in an accident or injury caused by pieces of broken glass.
