QUICK MENUS
The Quick menus allows the adjustment of most of the picture
quality controls without recalling the main On Screen menus.
Brightness, Contrast, Color, Tint, Sharpness and Filter
adjustments appear at the bottom of the screen, one after
another, when Up and Down Arrow keys are pressed.
MESSAGES
The following messages could appear on your screen:
No Signal
The projector does not recognise any signal sent through the
selected input.
- Check that the selected input is actually connected to
a video or graphic signal.
- Verify compatibility of video/graphic signals with technical
specifications of your projector.
- Check the integrity of cables used to connect various
sources.
Out of range
Either the resolution or the horizontal/vertical frequency of the
input signal is too high.
- Input a signal that is within specifications.
High temperature
The projector detects temperature internally; if it is too high it
will switch itself off.
- Check temperature of the room: it must be below 35°C
(95°F)
- Check projector air vents on top and underneath the projector:
they must be free of obstruction.
- If the problem persists, consult your Dealer.

10   CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The projector does not require internal cleaning. There are no
user serviceable parts inside the projector.  Please refer all
service requirements to qualified personnel.
Cleaning the projector’s cover:
Use a soft slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners,
solvents or other harsh chemicals, as this will damage the finish
of the cover. Avoid direct cleaning of the rear panel’s screen-
printing.Cleaning the lens:
The lens may be cleaned with a very soft, non-abrasive small
brush, in order to remove dust particles.  Alternatively, use a
soft dry cleaning cloth (of the type used for camera lens
cleaning) to remove fingerprints and grease marks.
No power  (Green and red LED are OFF)
- Check the power switch at the rear: it must be in position I.
- Check if the power cable has been connected correctly to a
working socket.
- Check the power socket fuse, at the rear of the projector.
- Replace the fuse on the mains socket with an identical type
(T 3.15A H) 
(Fig. 4).
- Should the problem persist, seek authorised technical
assistance.
The lamp is not coming on
- Allow a few minutes pause between switching off and turning
on again (from stand-by). This will allow the lamp to cool down
sufficiently.
- If the lamp doesn’t come on – even though the projector has
had sufficient time to cool down – seek technical assistance
from your nearest Dealer.
No image
- Check that the selected input is actually connected to a active
video or graphic signal.
- Check that the above source actually works.
- Verify compatibility of video/graphic signals with the   technical
specifications of the projector.
- Check the integrity of cables used to connect various sources
11   TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Image is disturbed, unstable or noisy
- Verify compatibility of video/graphic signals with the technical
specifications of the  projector.
- Check the integrity of cables connecting projector to various
sources.
- If the signal source is a terrestrial broadcast (via a VCR) check
that the receiving channel has been correctly tuned in and
that the aerial system is in good working order.
- Should the problem be present with a signal coming from a
video-recorder, ensure that the videotape is an Original “first
generation” copy and in good condition.
- Adjust the VCR’s tracking control for optimum picture perfor-
mance. Ensure the VCR mode is active in the Picture  menu.
Incomplete image along borders (vertical and horizontal)
- Compare compatibility of video/graphic signals and techni-
cal specifications of your projector.
- Press Auto (on your remote or keypad) to execute automatic
adjustments.
- Adjust the horizontal and vertical position of projected image
by selecting  Position on the Image Adjustments menu.
- Adjust the width and height of image, selecting Aspect in
the Image Adjustments menu. 
						

							23
Image too dark, too pale or unnaturally coloured
- Verify compatibility of video/graphic signals with technical
specifications of your projector.
- Go to Picture menu, select and regulate any of the following,
accordingly: Contrast, Brightness, Color, and Tint.
- If necessary, reset the Color Temperature and Gamma
Correction (found on the Image Adjustments /
Advanced Settings menu).
Graphic image with poor quality vertical detail
- Verify compatibility of video/graphic signals with technical
specifications of your projector.
- Press Auto (on your remote or keypad) to execute
automatic adjustments.
- Adjust Frequency and Phase  parameters, found in the
Image Adjustments menu, to optimise vertical detail of
the projected image.Video Image showing colour misalignment on vertical
details
- Verify compatibility of video/graphic signals with technical
specifications of your projector.
- Adjust Y/C Delay settings in the Image Adjustments /
Advanced Settings to reduce colour misalignment. For
best results use an external colour bar test pattern source.
Remote control does not work
- Check the batteries and for correct polarity.
- Ensure that the area between the infrared sensor (front of
projector) and the remote control is free of obstruction.
- Ensure that infrared sensors (front and rear of projector) are
not exposed to intense light levels.
You can purchase the following optional accessories at your
Dealer:
- Wall/Ceiling Bracket Kit.
12   OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
Use only original, or SIM2 Multimedia approved,
accessories.
CAUTION: for ceiling/wall installation, by means of
suspension bracket, carefully follow the instructions
and safety instructions recommended by the
Manufacturer in the bracket’s literature.
