*1 When using the projector at high altitudes (1 400 m (4 593') or higher – lower than 2 700 m (8 858') above sea level), the operating environment temperature should be between 0 °C (32 °F) and 40 °C (104 °F).

If you use the Smoke cut filter, the operating environment temperature should be between 0 °C (32 °F) and 35 °C (95 °F). However, it cannot be used at high altitudes.

If you use the Replacement lamp unit (for portrait mode), the operating environment temperature should be between 0 °C (32 °F) and 40 °C

(104 °F) when using the projector at elevations lower than 1 400 m (4 593') above sea level, and between 0 °C (32 °F) and 35 °C (95 °F) when using the projector at high altitudes. If you use the Smoke cut filter together, the operating environment temperature should be between 0 °C (32 °F) and 30 °C (86 °F).

Note

ff If the temperature indicator <TEMP> is still lit or flashing after taking the preceding measures, ask your dealer for repair.

ff If you use the projector with the following two settings made, the light output may drop by approx. 20 % to protect the projector when an ambient temperature becomes 40 °C (104 °F) or higher (35 °C (95 °F) or higher if [HIGH ALTITUDE MODE] is set to [ON], or if the Smoke cut filter is used).

Note

ff If the filter indicator <FILTER> is still lit or flashing after taking the preceding measures, ask your dealer for repair.

ff If the filter is clogged, only one lamp may light even when [LAMP SELECT] is set to [DUAL]. By cleaning the air filter unit or replacing it with a new one, the lamp will light properly.
