3 •Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the unit has been damaged in any way, such as the power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped. • Do not expose this unit to water or place objects containing liquids on this unit. • Do not place the source of a naked flame, such as a lit candle, on this unit. • Connect this unit to an earthed electrical outlet. • Ensure there is at least 20 cm between the exhaust vent and any walls, and so on. • Ensure there is at least 10 cm between the air intake vent and any walls, and so on. • Do not project when the lens cover is on. It is possible that the lens cover may melt from the heat and cause burns or injuries. To interrupt the projection, press [Image On/Off] during projection. • Do not leave this unit or the remote control with its batteries installed in such pl aces as the inside of a car with the windows closed, in direct sunlight, near the intake/exhaust of an air conditioner or heater, or in places where the temperature rises above normal. This may have a negative effect upon the internal parts of this unit and cause heat deformation or fire. • When unplugging the power plug/power connector, do not pull on the power cable. Make sure you grasp the plug or connector part, then unplug. • Do not set the volume too high from the outset. A loud sound may be produced suddenly that may cause damage to the speaker or your hearing. As a precaution, lower the volume before you switch off this unit then raise it gradually after you switch it back on. • When using headphones, do not turn the volume up too loudly.

Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. • Do not block the slots and opening in the projector case. They provide ventilation and prevent the projector from overheating. Do not place the projector on a sofa, rug, or other soft surface, or in a closed-in cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided. • Never push objects of any kind through cabinet slots. Never spill liquid of any kind into the projector. • Unplug the projector from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: −When the power cable or plug is damaged or frayed. − If liquid has been spilled into the projector, or it has been exposed to rain or water. − If it does not operate normally when you follow the operating instructions, or if it exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service. − If it has been dropped or the housing has been damaged.
4 •The internal projector components consist of many glass parts such as the lens and projection lamp. The lamp is fragile, and can easily break. If the lamp breaks, handle the projector with extreme care to avoid injury from broken glass, and contact your dealer or the nearest address provided on page 66 for repairs. Particular care should be taken when the projector is installed to a ceiling, as small pieces of glass may fall down when the lamp cover is removed. Be very careful not to allow such pieces of glass to get into the eyes or mouth. •Material or paper may get stuck against the air filter underneath the projector while it is in use. Remove anything from underneath the projector that might get stuck against the air filter in this way. •Never try to remove the lamp immediately after use. Doing so will result in serious burns. Before removing the lamp, turn off the power supply and wait the time specified on page 58 to allow the lamp to cool completely. •A mercury lamp with high internal pressure is used as the projectors light source. Mercury lamps may make a loud noise when they break. Handle the lamp with extreme care while observing the following. If the following points are not observed, injury or poisoning may result. −Do not damage the lamp or subject it to any impacts. −Do not use the lamp after the lamp replacement period has elapsed. Once the lamp replacement period has elapsed, the possibility of the lamp breaking becomes greater. When the lamp replacement message appears, replace the lamp with a new one as soon as possible. −The gases inside mercury lamps contain mercury vapor. If the lamp breaks, immediately ventilate the room to prevent the gases that are released when the lamp breaks from being inhaled or coming into contact with the eyes or mouth. −Do not bring your face close to the projector while it is in use, in order to prevent the gases that are released when the lamp breaks from being inhaled or coming into contact with the eyes or mouth. −If the lamp breaks and needs to be replaced with a new lamp, contact the place of purchase or the nearest address provided on page 66 to carry out the replacement. If the lamp breaks, pieces of broken glass may get scattered around inside the projector.−Particular care should be taken when the projector is installed to a ceiling, as small pieces of glass may fall down when the lamp cover is removed. If cleaning the projector or replacing the lamp yourself, be very careful not to allow such pieces of glass to get into the eyes or mouth. If the lamp breaks and gas from the lamp or fragments of broken glass are inhaled or get into the eyes or mouth, or if any other ill effects are noticed, immediately seek medical advice. In addition, consult your local regulations regarding proper disposal and do not place in the trash. •If there is an electrical storm, do not touch the power plug, otherwise you may receive an electric shock. •Clean the inside of the projector periodically. If the inside of the projector has not been cleaned for a long time, dust may build up and cause fire or electric shocks. Contact your dealer or the nearest address provided on page 66 to clean inside the projector at least once a year. A charge will be levied for this service. •If using a remote control that takes batteries, keep these batteries out of the reach of children. Batteries are choking hazards and can be very dangerous if swallowed. If the batteries are swallowed, seek medical assistance immediately. •When replacing batteries, take the following precautions. −Replace the batteries as soon as they run out. −If the batteries leak, wipe away battery fluid with a soft cloth. If fluid gets on your hands, wash immediately. −Do not expose batteries to heat or flame. −Dispose of used batteries according to local regulations. −Remove the batteries if you wont be using the projector for a long period of time. •Do not stand on the projector or place heavy objects on it.

If you move this unit from a cold place into a warm room, or, if the room in which this unit is installed is heated rapidly, condensation (moisture) may form internally or on the lens surface.If condensation forms, it may not only cause incorrect operation such as weakening of the image, but also damage the disc and/ or parts.In order to prevent against condensation, setup this unit in the room approximately one hour before it is to be used.If by some chance condensation does form, turn on the main power switch then wait one to two hours before use. Do not use the lamp during this time.This machine uses a mercury lamp with a high internal pressure as its light source.Mercury lamps have the following characteristics. •Lamp brightness decreases once the rated lamp usage time has passed. •When the lamp reaches the end of its life, it may enter a state where it will no longer light, or it may explode with a loud noise due to impact, deterioration, or the expiration of its usage time. •Depending on the individual difference of each lamp and the conditions of use, there is a considerable difference in the time it takes for the lamp to reach the end of its life. To provide against contingencies, prepare a replacement lamp in advance. •The potential for the lamp to explode increases once the lamp usage time has been exceeded. When the lamp replacement message appears, promptly replace the lamp with a new one. •Although the liquid crystal panel is made using very precise high technology, you may see some black pixels, or pixels that are always lit red, blue, or green.You may also be able to see lines with irregular brightness or color. These are normal characteristics of liquid crystal panels, and are not indicative of any malfunction.Be aware of this fact. •Do not leave this unit projecting a still image over a long period of time. It is possible that remnants of the image may remain (screen burn). You may be able to avoid screen burn by switching off the power and leaving the projector for a while.If the screen burn does not disappear, contact your dealer for advice. sp. 66 Use and Storage Notes on handling and storage Condensation Lamp LCD panel
