Basic Operation

After installation, the projector will require initial set-up, adjustment, alignment and con- figuration (see next page). Once this has been done, the unit can be used simply by following these basic operational procedures.

These adjustments should normally be carried out as part of initial set-up. If the message ‘not available’ is displayed on-screen, these features have been locked out, and you will need to go to the Options menu to unlock them.

To enlarge the screen size, press the ZOOM T button (button 8 on the remote). To reduce the screen size, press the ZOOM W button (button 0 on the remote). Adjust the focus set- ting with the FOCUS +/- buttons (2 and 5 on the remote).

The OPERATE indicator on the projector lights up and the projected image slowly appears.

Upon projection, the image may flicker for a few seconds. This is not a fault.

When the light source is turned on, the lamp will slowly become brighter. It will take more than a minute for the brightness to stabilize.

When video sources employing copy-protection (HDCP) are in use, it may take a while for the image to appear, due to the projector and its source ‘handshaking’

down mode will last for about 60 seconds to allow the light source to cool off.

The projector switches automatically into stand- by mode at the end of the cool down mode.

The OPERATE OFF button will not work until about a minute has passed after the light source has been turned on. If necessary, wait for this to happen.

CAUTION: Do not pull out the plug when the Standby indicator is blinking. This may shorten the lamp life and cause a malfunction.

Precautions During Use

This unit makes use of a light source that reaches a high temperature during projection. Do not allow projection under the following conditions; doing so may cause fire or mal- function of the projector:

Projection with the unit laid on its sides

Projection with the unit installed in an un- reasonable angle. Avoid using this unit at an inclined angle. Doing so may cause unevenness in the colour or shorten the lamp life.

Projection at a location that blocks the air inlets or exhaust vents (see page 16)

Projection without removing the lens cap.
