CEG TECHNICAL

THIS COPY MUST NOT BE REMOVED FROM CEG OFFICE.

This equipment complies with the requirements of Directives 89/336/EEC and 73/23/EEC as amended by 93/68/EEC.

The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 13A fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked 🌐 or ◇ and of the same rating as above, which is also indicated on the pin face of the plug, must be used.

Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.

In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied, cut off the mains plug and fit an appropriate type.

DANGER:

The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug destroyed immediately and disposed of in a safe manner.

Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet, as a serious electric shock may occur.

To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:

IMPORTANT:

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Blue: Neutral

Brown: Live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

- The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked N or coloured black.

• The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked L or coloured red.

Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth terminal in your three-pin plug. Before replacing the plug cover make sure that:

- If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that removed from the cut-off plug.

- The cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead, and not simply over the lead wires.

Notes on Operation

About the Temperature Monitor Function:

- If the projector starts to overheat due to set-up problems or a dirty air filter, "TEMP." will flash in the upper-left corner of the picture. If the temperature continues to rise, then the lamp will turn off, the TEMPERATURE WARNING indicator will flash, and after a 90-second cooling-off period the power will shut off. Refer to page 28, "Maintenance Indicators," when the "TEMP." warning appears in the picture.

- The cooling fan regulates the internal temperature, and its performance is automatically controlled. The sound of the fan may change during operation due to changes in the fan speed.

How to set up the projector and screen

Cautions: When setting up the projector

  • For minimal servicing and to maintain high image quality, SHARP recommends that this projector be installed in an area free from humidity, dust and cigarette smoke. If the projector is used in these environments, the lens and filter will need to be cleaned (or the filter replaced) more often, and internal cleaning may become necessary. As long as the projector is regularly cleaned, use in these environments will not reduce the overall operation life of the unit. Internal cleaning should only be performed by a Sharp Authorised LCD Projector Dealer.
  • Do not expose to extreme heat or cold. Operating temperature: +5°C to +40°C Storage temperature: -20°C to +60°C
  • Do not tilt the projector more than 5^ .

  • Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly onto the screen washes out colours, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when using the screen in a bright or sunny room.

  • The best picture will be obtained when the projector is at a 90 degree angle to the screen. Position the projector and screen as shown.

Example of a standard setup

TOP VIEW
90° Lens centre

The projector lens should be centred in the middle of the screen.

SIDE VIEW
90° Lens centre

If the projector and screen are not centred properly, the picture will be distorted, making viewing difficult.

Using the horizontal reverse function makes the following setups possible.

Example of a reversed image setup

  • By placing a mirror (normal flat type) in front of the lens and using the horizontal reverse function, the image reflected from the mirror can be projected onto the screen.
  • Rear projection with a rear projection screen is also possible when using the horizontal reverse function.

90° Mirror

The projector lens should be centred in the middle of the screen.

SHARP XG-NV33XE - Example of a reversed image setup - 2

Rear Projection 90°

If the projector and screen are not centred properly, the picture will be distorted, making viewing difficult.

Example of a ceiling-mount setup

Before mounting the projector, be sure to contact your nearest Sharp Authorised LCD Projector Dealer to obtain the manufacturer recommended ceiling mount bracket (sold separately). (AN-NV2T Ceiling Mount Bracket, AN-TK201/AN-TK202 Extension Tube for AN-NV2T.)

  1. Press the adjuster release and lift the projector to the desired angle with both hands.

- The adjuster legs will extend to the surface of the table.

  1. Remove your hand from the adjuster release.

- The adjuster legs will lock in position. Release the projector once you are sure the adjuster legs have locked in position.

  1. Make any minor adjustments necessary.

- Turn the adjusters to further adjust the angle of the projector.

Returning the projector to its original position

- While holding the projector with both hands, press the adjuster release and slowly lower the projector to its original position.

Notes:

  • Adjustable up to approximately 5^ from the horizontal.
  • When adjustments are made with the adjusters, the picture may become distorted, depending on the relative positions of the projector and the screen.
  • After adjusting, in some cases, all of the adjuster legs may not be resting on the table. To prevent the projector from wobbling, adjust the adjuster legs so that they firmly contact the table.

Cautions:

  • Do not press the adjuster release when the adjuster legs are extended without firmly holding the projector.
  • When lowering the projector, be careful not to get your fingers caught in the area between the adjusters and the projector.
  • Do not hold the lens when lifting or lowering the projector.

Transporting the Projector

Use the carrying handle when carrying the projector.

When transporting the projector, carry it by the handle located on the side of the unit.

Note:

- Always put on the lens cap to prevent damage to the lens when transporting the projector.

Caution:

- Do not lift or carry the projector by the lens or the lens cap as this may damage the lens.

Lamp/Maintenance Indicators

Lamp

The lamp operating life differs, depending on the usage environment. It is recommended that the lamp be replaced after 2,000 cumulative hours of use.

- When the lamp is nearing the end of its operating life, the picture and colour quality will deteriorate. At this point, take your projector to the nearest Sharp Authorised LCD Projector Dealer or Service Centre to have the lamp replaced.

Note: The lamp usage time can be checked with the On-Screen display. (See page 25.)

- Intense light hazard. Do not attempt to look into the aperture and lens while the projector is operating.

Maintenance Indicators

POWER LAMP TEMP.

LAMP REPLACEMENT TEMPERATURE indicator indicator

  • The warning lights on the projector indicate problems inside the projector.
  • There are two warning lights: a TEMPERATURE indicator which warns that the projector is too hot, and a LAMP REPLACEMENT indicator which lets you know when to change the lamp.

- If a problem occurs, either the TEMPERATURE indicator or the LAMP REPLACEMENT indicator will light up red, and the power will shut off. After turning off the power, follow the procedures given below.

Warning IndicatorSymptomProblemPossible Solution
TEMPERATURE indicatorThe internal temperature is abnormally high.• Blocked air intake.• Relocate projector to a proper location.
• Clogged air filter.• Clean the filter.(See page 27.)
• Cooling fan breakdown.• Internal circuit failure.• Take the projector to your nearest Sharp Authorised LCD Projector Dealer or Service Centre for repair.
LAMP REPLACE-MENT indicatorThe lamp does not light up.• Burnt-out lamp.• Take the projector to your nearest Sharp Authorised LCD Projector Dealer or Service Centre for repair.
• Lamp circuit failure.

Notes:

  • If the TEMPERATURE indicator comes on, follow the above possible solutions and then wait until the projector has cooled down completely before turning the power back on. (At least 5 minutes.)
  • When the power is turned off and then turned on again, as during a brief rest, the LAMP REPLACEMENT Indicator may be triggered, preventing the power from going on. When this happens, take the power plug out of the AC outlet and put it back in again.

Our projector uses LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) panels. These very sophisticated panels contain 786,432 pixels (× RGB) TFTs (Thin Film Transistors).

As with any high technology electronic equipment such as large screen TVs, video systems and/or video cameras, there are certain acceptable tolerances that the equipment must conform to. This unit has some inactive TFTs within acceptable tolerances, which may result in illuminated or inactive dots on the picture screen.

This will not affect the picture quality or the life expectancy of the unit.

Specifications are subject to change without notice.
