Cleaning the lens■Use a commercially available blower or lens
cleaning paper (for glasses and camera lenses)
for cleaning the lens. Do not use any liquid type
cleaning agents, as they may wear off the
coating film on the surface of the lens.
■ As the surface of the lens can easily get
damaged, be careful not to scrape or hit the
lens.
Cleaning the exhaust and intake vents■Use a vacuum cleaner to clean dust from the
exhaust vent and the intake vent.
Cleaning the projector■Ensure that you have unplugged the power
cord before cleaning the projector.
■ The cabinet as well as the operation panel is
made of plastic. Avoid using benzene or
thinner, as these can damage the finish on the
cabinet.
■ Do not use volatile agents such as insecticides
on the projector.
Do not attach rubber or plastic items to the
projector for long periods.
The effects of some of the agents in the plastic
may cause damage to the quality or finish of the
projector.
■ Wipe off dirt gently with a soft flannel cloth.
■ When the dirt is hard to remove, soak a cloth in
a mild detergent diluted with water, wring the
cloth well and then wipe the projector.
Strong cleaning detergents may discolor, warp
or damage the coating on the projector. Make
sure to test on a small, inconspicuous area on
the projector before use.
Maintenance
•If you want to clean the air vents during projec-
tor operation, ensure you press  STANDBY/ON
on the projector or  STANDBY on the remote
control and put the projector into standby
mode. After the cooling fan has stopped, clean
the vents.

Maintenance Indicators
About the lamp indicator
■When the remaining lamp life becomes 5% or less,  (yellow) and “Change The Lamp” will be
displayed on the screen. When the percentage becomes 0%, it will change to  (red), the lamp will
automatically turn off and then the projector will automatically enter standby mode. At this time, the
lamp indicator will illuminate in red.
■ If you try to turn on the projector a fourth time without replacing the lamp, the projector will
not turn on.
About the temperature warning indicator
If the temperature inside the projector increases, due to blockage of the air vents, or the setting location,
“” will illuminate in the lower left corner of the picture. If the temperature keeps on rising, the lamp
will turn off and the temperature warning indicator will blink, the cooling fan will run, and then the projec-
tor will enter standby mode. After “
” appears, ensure you perform the measures described on
page  51.
■ The warning lights (power indicator, lamp indicator and temperature warning indicator) on the
projector indicate problems inside the projector.
■ If a problem occurs, either the temperature warning indicator or the lamp indicator will illuminate
red, and the projector will enter standby mode. After the projector has entered standby mode,
follow the procedures given below.

•If the temperature warning indicator illuminates, and the projector enters standby mode, follow the
possible solutions above and then wait until the projector has cooled down completely before plug-
ging in the power cord and turning the power back on. (At least 10 minutes.)
• If the power is turned off for a brief moment due to power outage or some other cause while using\
the projector, and the power supply recovers immediately after that, the lamp indicator will illumi-
nate in red and the lamp may not be lit. In this case, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet,
replace the power cord in the AC outlet and then turn the power on again.
• The cooling fan keeps the internal temperature of the projector constant and this function is con-
trolled automatically. The sound of the cooling fan may change during operation because the f\
an
speed may change and this is not a malfunction.

Regarding the Lamp
Lamp■It is recommended that the lamp (sold separately) be replaced when the remaining lamp life becomes
5% or less, or when you notice a significant deterioration in the pictur\
e and color quality. The lamp life
(percentage) can be checked with the on-screen display. (See page  47.)
■ Purchase a replacement lamp of type AH-62101 from your place of purchase, nearest EIKI Authorized
Dealer or Service Center.
Caution Concerning the Lamp■This projector utilizes a pressurized mercury lamp. A loud sound may indicate lamp failure. Lamp
failure can be attributed to numerous sources such as: excessive shock, improper cooling, surface
scratches or deterioration of the lamp due to a lapse of usage time.
The period of time up to failure largely varies depending on the individual lamp and/or the condition
and the frequency of use. It is important to note that failure can often result in the bulb cracking.
■ When the lamp replacement indicator and on-screen display icon are illuminated, it is recommended
that the lamp be replaced with a new one immediately, even if the lamp appears to be operating
normally.
■ Should the lamp break, there is also a possibility that glass particles may spread inside of the
projector. In such a case, it is recommended you contact your nearest EIKI Authorized Dealer or
Service Center to assure safe operation.
■ Should the lamp break, the glass particles may spread inside the lamp cage or gas contained in the
lamp may be vented into the room from the exhaust vent. Because the gas in this lamp includes
mercury, ventilate the room well if the lamp breaks and avoid all exposure to the released gas. In case
of exposure to the gas, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
Replacing the Lamp
Caution
•Do not remove the lamp unit from the projector right after use. The lamp will be very hot and may
cause burns or injury.
•W ait at least one hour after the power cord is disconnected to allow the surface of the lamp unit to fully
cool before removing the lamp unit.
■ Carefully change the lamp by following the instructions described in this section. * If you wish,
you may have the lamp replaced at your nearest EIKI Authorized Dealer or Service Center.
* If the new lamp does not light after replacement, take your projector to the nearest EIKI Authorized
Dealer or Service Center for repair.

Info
•When controlling the projector using RS-232C commands from a computer, wait for at least 30
seconds after the power has been turned on, and then transmit the commands.
• After sending an input selection or picture adjustment command and then receiving an “OK” re-
sponse code, the projector may take some time to process the command. If a second command is
sent while the projector is still processing the first command, you may receive an “ERR” response
code. If this happens, try resending the second command.
• When more than one code is being sent, send each command only after the response code for the
previous command from the projector is verified.
• “POWR????” “TABN _ _ _ 1” “TLPS _ _ _ 1” “TPOW _ _ _ 1” “TLPN _ _ _\
 1” “TLTT _ _ _ 1”
“TLTM _ _ _ 1” “TLTL _ _ _ 1” “TNAM _ _ _ 1” “MNRD _ _ _ 1” “PJN0 _ _ _ \
1”
- When the projector receives the special commands shown above:
* The on-screen display will not disappear.
* The “Auto Power Off” timer will not be reset.
- The special commands are available for applications that require continuous polling.
Computer control
A computer can be used to control the projector by connecting an RS-232C serial control
cable (cross type, commercially available) to the projector. (See page  24 for connection.)
Communication conditions
Set the serial port settings of the computer to match that of the table.
Signal format: Conforms to RS-232C standard. Parity bit: None
Baud rate*: 9,600 bps / 115,200 bps Stop bit: 1 bit
Data length: 8 bits Flow control: None
*Set the projector’s baud rate to the same rate as used by the computer.
Basic format
Commands from the computer are sent in the following order: command, parameter, and
return code. After the projector processes the command from the computer, it sends a re-
sponse code to the computer.

*1 For setting the projector name, send the commands in the order of PJN1, PJN2 and PJN3.
*2 This command should be sent only after the “IRGB _ _ _ 2” command \
is sent and an “OK” response
code is received.
*3 The Lamp Timer Reset command is available only in standby mode.
