Important safety instructions
Important safety instructions
Your projector is designed and tested to meet the latest standards for safety of information
technology equipment. However, to ensure safe use of this product, it is important that you
follow the instructions mentioned in this manual and marked on the product.
1. Please read this user manual before you operate your projector. Keep this manual in a
safe place for future reference.
2. Always place the projector on a level, horizontal surface during operation.
- Do not place the projector on an unstable cart, stand, or table as it may fall and be
damaged;
- Do not place inflammables near the projector;
- Do not use if tilted at an angle of more than 10 degrees left to right, nor at angle of more
than 15 degrees front to back.
3. Do not store the projector on end vertically. Doing so may cause the projector to fall
over, causing injury or resulting in damage.
4. Do not place the projector in any of the following environments:
- space that is poorly ventilated or confined. Allow at least 50 cm clearance from walls
and free flow of air around the projector;
- locations where temperatures may become excessively high, such as the inside of a car
with all windows closed;
- locations where excessive humidity, dust, or cigarette smoke may contaminate optical
components, shortening the projector’s lifespan and darkening the screen;
- locations near fire alarms;
- locations with an ambient temperature above 40°C/104°F;
- locations where altitude is higher than 1500 meters/4920 feet above sea level.
5. Do not block the ventilation holes while the projector is on (even in standby mode):
- Do not cover the projector with any item;
- Do not place the projector on a blanket, bedding or any other soft surface.
6. In areas where the mains power supply voltage may fluctuate by ±10 volts, it is
recommended that you connect your projector through a power stabilizer, surge
protector or uninterruptible power supply (UPS) as appropriate to your situation.
7. Do not step on the projector or place any objects upon it.
8. Do not place liquids near or on the projector. Liquids spilled into the projector will void
your warranty. If the projector does become wet, disconnect it from the power point
and call your local service center to have the projector repaired.
9. Do not look straight into the projector lens during operation. It may harm your sight.
10. Do not operate the projector lamp beyond the rated lamp life. Excessive operation of

serviceable parts are the lamp, and air filter which have their own removable covers or
access panels. See pages 42 and 44.
Under no circumstances should you ever undo or remove any other covers. Refer
servicing only to suitably qualified professional service personnel.
4 Important safety instructions
Notice
Please keep the original packing for possible future shipment. If you need to pack your projector after
use, adjust the projection lens to an appropriate position, put the lens cushion around the lens, and fit the
lens cushion and projector cushion together to prevent damage during transportation.
Moisture condensation
Never operate the projector immediately after moving it from a cold location to a hot
location. When the projector is exposed to such a change in temperature, moisture may
condense on the crucial internal parts. To prevent the projector from possible damage, do
not use the projector for at least 2 hours when there is a sudden change in temperature.
Avoid volatile liquid
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide or some types of cleaner, near the projector.
Do not have rubber or plastic products touching the projector for a long time. They will leave
marks on the finish. If cleaning with a chemically treated cloth, be sure to follow the cleaning
product’s safety instructions.
Disposal
This product contains the following material which is harmful to human bodies and
environment.
• Mercury, which is used in the lamp.
To dispose of used lamps, consult your local environment authorities for regulations.
Ceiling mounting the projector
We want you to have a pleasant experience using your projector, so we need to bring this
safety matter to your attention to prevent damage to person and property.
If you intend to mount your projector on the ceiling, we strongly recommend that you use a
proper fitting projector ceiling mount kit and that you ensure it is securely and safely installed.
If you use an inappropriate projector ceiling mount kit, there is a safety risk that the projector
may fall from the ceiling due to an improper attachment through the use of the wrong
gauge or length screws.
You can purchase a projector ceiling mount kit from the place you purchased your
projector. We recommend that you also purchase a separate Kensington lock compatible
security cable and attach it securely to both the Kensington lock slot on the projector and
the base of the ceiling mount bracket. This will perform the secondary role of restraining the
projector should its attachment to the mounting bracket become loose.

Positioning your projector
Obtaining a preferred projected image size
The distance from the projector lens to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video format
each factors in the projected image size.
The projector should always be placed horizontally level (like flat on a table), and positioned
directly perpendicular (90° right-angle square) to the horizontal center of the screen. This
prevents image distortion caused by angled projections (or projecting onto angled surfaces).
If the projector is mounted on a ceiling, it must be mounted upside-down.
This projector is equipped with a movable lens. See "Shifting the projection lens vertically"
below for details. You can see the diagrams on pages 13 and 14 for the vertical offset values
in the dimension tables that are measured when the lens is shifted fully up or down.
If the projector is positioned further away from the screen, the projected image size
increases, and the vertical offset also increases proportionately.
When determining the position of the screen and projector, you will need to account for both
the projected image size and the vertical offset dimension, which are directly proportional to
the projection distance.
We have provided separate tables of dimensions for both 16:9 and 4:3 screen ratios to assist
you in determining the ideal location for your projector. There are two dimensions to
consider, the perpendicular horizontal distance from the center of the screen (projection
distance), and the vertical offset height of the projector from the horizontal edge of the
screen (offset).
Shifting the projection lens vertically
The vertical lens shift control provides flexibility for installing your projector. It allows the
projector to be positioned slightly above or below the top level of the projected images.
The lens shift (offset) is expressed as a percentage of the projected image height. It is
measured as an offset from the projected image's vertical center. The projector is equipped
with + 60% and - 40% vertical lens shift. You can shift the projection lens upwards or
downwards within the allowable range depending on your desired image position.
To adjust the vertical position of the projection lens:
1. Press LENS or / (when the OSD menu is not activated)
on the remote control to display the adjustment page.
(Pressing ENTER in the Color > Lens Shift menu performs the
same function.)
2. To raise the projected image, press on the remote
control.
To lower the projected image, press on the remote
control.

12 Positioning your projector
How to determine the position of the projector for a given screen size
1. Determine the aspect ratio of your screen, 16:9 or 4:3.
2. Refer to the table and find the closest match to your screen size in the left columns
labelled "Screen Dimensions". Using this value, look across this row to the right to find the
corresponding average distance from screen value in the column labelled "Average".
This is the projection distance.
3. Decide the exact height of your projector according to the position of your screen and
the adjustable vertical lens shift range.
For example, if you are using an 120-inch, 4:3-aspect-ratio screen, please refer to "4:3
(standard) ratio screen dimension table". The average projection distance is 495 cm.
How to determine the recommended screen size for a given distance
This method can be used for situations where you have purchased this projector and would
like to know what screen size will fit in your room.
The maximum screen size is limited by the physical space available in your room.
1. Determine the aspect ratio of your screen, 16:9 or 4:3.
2. Measure the distance between the projector and where you want to position the
screen. This is the projection distance.
3. Refer to the table and find the closest match to your measurement in the average
distance from screen column labelled "Average". Check that your measured distance is
between the min and max distances listed on either side of the average distance value.
4. Using this value, look across that row to the left to find the corresponding screen
diagonal listed in that row. That is the projected image size of the projector at that
projection distance.
For example, if you have a 16:9-aspect-ratio screen and your measured projection distance
was 4.5m (450cm), please refer to "16:9 (widescreen) ratio screen dimension table". The
closest match in the "Average" column is 449 cm. Looking across this row shows that an 100-
inch screen is required.
If you place the projector in a different position (to that recommended), you will have to tilt it
down or up to center the image on the screen. In these situations, some image distortion will
occur. Use the Keystone function to correct the distortion. See "Correcting picture distortion"
on page 22 for details.

digital tuner, cable or satellite decoder, video game console or digital camera. You can also
connect it to a desktop or laptop PC or Apple Macintosh system. However, it has no built-in
speakers and cannot be connected to audio equipment.
The projector can be connected to multiple video equipment at the same time by using
different cables. All you need to do is select the appropriate input for the projector to display.
Best video quality
The best available video connection method is HDMI. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia
Interface) supports uncompressed video data transmission between compatible devices like
DTV tuners, DVD players and displays over a single cable. It provides pure digital viewing and
listening experience.
See "Connecting HDMI devices" on page 16 for how to connect the projector to a HDMI
device.
The RGBHV also provides high video quality that transmits Red, Green, Blue, Horizontal and
Vertical sync signals separately on its own conductor.
See "Connecting RGBHV devices" on page 16 for how to connect the projector to a RGBHV
device.
The next best video signal is Component Video (not to be confused with composite Video).
Digital TV tuner and DVD players output Component Video natively, so if available on your
devices, this should be your connection method of choice in preference to (composite)
Video.
See "Connecting component-video devices" on page 16 for how to connect the projector to
a component video device.
Better video quality
The S-Video method provides a better quality analog video than standard composite Video.
If you have both composite Video and S-Video output terminals on your Video source
device, you should elect to use the S-Video option.
Least video quality
Composite Video is an analog video and will result in a perfectly acceptable, but less than
optimal result from your projector, being the least video quality of the available methods
described here.
See "Connecting S-Video or video devices" on page 17 for how to connect the projector to
an S-Video or composite Video device.
Preparations
When connecting a signal source to the projector, be sure to:
1. Turn off all equipment before making any connections.
2. Use only the correct type cables for each source with proper type plugs.
3. Ensure that all cable plugs are firmly fitted to the equipment sockets.
Note that all cables shown in the following connection diagrams may not be supplied with the projector
(See "Shipping contents" on page 5 for details). Most cables are commercially available from electronics
stores.
16 Connecting with video equipment
Connecting HDMI devices
You should use an HDMI cable when making connection between the projector and HDMI
devices.
You should also connect the separate audio cable to a suitable audio amplifier.
Connecting RGBHV devices
Use a RGBHV video cable with 5 BNC male connectors for connection. Be sure to match the
corresponding colors between the cables and the terminals.
Connecting component-video devices
Be sure to match the corresponding colors between the cables and the terminals.
The RCA type component video sockets are provided for connection to video output
devices. If you have a BNC type component video cable, you can alternatively connect
through the BNC component video sockets.
You should also connect the separate audio cable to a suitable audio amplifier.

Connecting with video equipment
Connecting S-Video or video devices
You need only connect S-Video or composite Video cable from the same device, never
both at the same time. You should also connect the separate audio cable to a suitable
audio amplifier.
If you have already made a Component Video connection between the projector and the video source
device, you need not connect to this device again using an S-Video or composite Video connection as
this makes an unnecessary second connection of poorer picture quality. You need only connect using a
composite Video connection if both Component Video and S-Video are not supplied on the video
source device (for example, with some analog video cameras).
Connecting a computer
Connect the projector to a computer with a VGA-BNC cable.
If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct video source
has been selected, please check that the video source device is turned on and operating correctly. Also
check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.
Many laptops do not turn on their external video ports when connected to a projector. Usually a key
combination like Fn + F3 or CRT/LCD key turns the external display on/off. Locate a function key labeled
CRT/LCD or a function key with a monitor symbol on the laptop. Press Fn and the labeled function key
simultaneously. Refer to your laptop’s documentation to discover your laptop’s key combination.

Securing the projector
Using a security cable lock
The projector has to be installed in a safe place to prevent stealing. If not, purchase a lock,
like Kensington lock, to secure the projector. You can locate a Kensington lock slot on the left
side of the projector. See item 11 on page 7 for details.
A Kensington security cable lock is usually the combination of key(s) and lock. Refer to the
lock’s documentation about how to use it.
Utilizing the password function
For security purposes and to help prevent unauthorized use, the projector includes an option
for setting up password security. The password can be set through the On-Screen Display
(OSD) menu. Once the password is set and this function is selected, the projector is password-
protected. Users who do not know the correct password can not use the projector.
You will be inconvenienced if you activate the password functionality and subsequently forget the
password. Print out this manual (if necessary) and write the password you used in this manual, and keep
the manual in a safe place for later recall.
Setting a password
Once a password has been set and activated, the projector cannot be used unless the correct password
is entered every time the projector is started.
1. Press MENU on the remote control and then press / until
the Setup menu is highlighted.
2. Press to highlight Password and press ENTER. The Password
page displays.
3. Highlight Password and press / to select On. The Input
Password page displays.
4. As the picture indicates, the four arrow keys ( , , , )
respectively represent 4 digits (1, 2, 3, 4). According to the
password you desire to set, press the arrow keys on the
remote control to enter six digits for the password.
If the function is used for the first time, enter the default
password (1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1) of the projector by pressing the
arrow key six times.
Once the password is set, the OSD menu returns to the
Password page.
IMPORTANT: The digits being input will display as asterisks on-
screen. Write your selected password down here in this manual in
advance or right after the password is entered so that it is available
to you should you ever forget it.
Password: __ __ __ __ __ __
5. To leave the OSD menu, press MENU.
If you forget the password
If the password function is activated, you will be asked to enter
the six-digit password every time you turn on the projector. If you
enter the wrong password, the password error message as
pictured to the right displays lasting for three seconds, and the
Input Password page follows. You can retry by entering another
six-digit password, or if you did not record the password in this
manual, and you absolutely do not remember it, you can use the password recall procedure.
See "Entering the password recall procedure" on page 21 for details.
If you enter an incorrect password 5 times in succession, the projector will automatically shut
down in a short time.
