23 The password feature lets you keep unauthorized individuals from using the projector. You can specify whether password input is required whenever you turn on the projector, and you can specify and change the password as required. Use the Setup Menu “Option Settings 1 3 Password” setting to configure password settings. Using the Password Feature Note the following precautions whenever you use the password feature. zThe password feature protects against unauthorized use of the projector. Note that it is not an anti-theft measure. zYou will need to enter the initial factory default password the first time you use the projector after turning on the password feature. Change the initial factory default password to a different one of your choice as soon as possible after turning on the password feature. zRemember that password operations are always performed using the remote controller, so you should take care not to lose or misplace the remote controller. zAlso note that you will not be able to input the password if the remote controller batteries are dead. Replace the remote control batteries as soon as possible after it starts to go low. If you forget your password... If you forget the password, you will need to bring the following two items to your CASIO distributor to have the password cleared. Note that you will be charged to have the password cleared. Note that your CASIO distributor will not be able to clear the password of your projector unless you bring both of the items listed above. Also, keep the projector’s warranty in a safe place. Important!zHaving your password cleared using the procedure described above will return all of the settings of your projector, except for the Light Time, to their initial factory defaults. Keep a written record of your password! You will not be able to use the projector if you forget its password. We strongly suggest that you keep a written or other type of record of the password so you can look it up when necessary. Password Protection 1.

26 Cleaning the Projector Make it a habit to clean the projector at regular intervals as described in this section. Before cleaning the projector, be sure to unplug it from the power outlet and make sure it is cooled down completely. Wipe the exterior of the projector with a soft cloth that has been moistened in a weak solution of water and a mild neutral detergent. Be sure to wring all excess moisture from the cloth before wiping. Never use benzene, alcohol, thinner, or any other volatile agent for cleaning. Carefully wipe the lens with a commercially available lens cloth or optical lens paper, like those for eyeglasses or camera lenses. When cleaning the lens, do not apply undue force and take care to avoid damaging the lens. Dust and dirt tend to collect around the intake vents. Because of this, you should use a vacuum cleaner to clean away accumulated dust and dirt periodically (about once a month) as shown below. Important!zContinued use of the projector after dust has accumulated around the intake vents can cause overheating of internal components and lead to malfunction. zCertain operating conditions also can cause dirt and dust to accumulate around the projector’s exhaust vents. If this happens, use the same procedure as that described above to clean the exhaust vents. Cleaning the Projector Exterior Cleaning the Lens Cleaning Vents
