Cautions on use
In order to get the picture quality
Draw curtains or blinds over windows and turn off any lights near the screen to prevent outside light or light from indoor lamps from shining onto the screen. Depending on where the projector is used, air exhaust vents or the warm air from air conditioning can cause a shimmering effect on the screen. For this reason, take care not to shield the air exhaust vents and consider the direction of the air flowing from air conditioning.
zzDo not adjust the lens focus in the initial period (within approx. 30 minutes) after switching the projector on.
Do not touch the surface of the projector lens with your bare hand.
If the surface of the lens becomes dirty from fingerprints or anything else, this will be magnified and projected onto the screen. Cover the lens with the lens cap when the projector is not used.
The projector has a high pressure mercury lamp that is characterised as follows:
zz The brightness of the lamp will decrease over time. zz The lamp may explode or shorten the lamp life by
shocks or chipping damage.
zz In rare cases, it may burst shortly after the first use. zz The possibility of its bursting increases when the
lamp is used beyond the replacement time.
zz If the lamp bursts, gas inside the lamp is released in the form of smoke.
zz The life of a mercury lamp varies according to the individual difference or conditions of use.
zz In particular, turning the power on and off frequently and/or repeatedly as well as continuous use for
12 hours will greatly affect the life cycle. Provide a lamp for replacement in advance.
Connection to external device
When connecting the projector to a computer or external device, use the mains lead supplied with the corresponding device and a commercially available shielded interface cable.

Cleaning and maintenance
Ask an Authorised Service Centre to clean the inside of the projector at least once a year.
