*About Cool Down Mode
After projection, the heated lamp will go through a 90-
second cool-down process known as the cool down
mode. This function is to prevent damage and defor-
mation that heat from the heated lamp may cause to
the internal components of this unit. It also prevents
lamp breakage and shortened lamp life.
The cool down mode is indicated by the blinking
[STAND BY] indicator. When in the cool down mode,
the [OPERATE] button will be disabled.
After the cool down process is completed, the unit will
automatically switch to the standby mode.
Note
When in the cool down mode, do not pull out the plug
from the power outlet. Also, do not block the air inlets/
exhaust vents by standing this unit on its end or lay-
ing it on its side.

Precautions for Using Batteries
Loading Batteries into the Remote Control
1Open the back cover
Press the back cover slightly and slide it in the direction of
the arrow.
2Load the batteries
Insert the 2 (AAA) batteries supplied according to the 9,
( marks. To prevent short circuit, be sure to insert the (
(minus) end of the battery first.
3Close the back cover
Slide in the direction of the arrow to close the back cover. Load batteries into the remote control. If the remote control starts to function erratically, replace the batteries.
If batteries are incorrectly used, they may crack or leak. This
could cause fire, burn, malfunction, and staining or damag-
ing of the surroundings.
Beware of the following:
•Do not mix new and old batteries.
•Do not mix different type of batteries as they are different in
characteristics.
•Insert batteries according to the ª · marks on the battery case.
•Be sure to insert the minus · end in first to prevent short circuit.
•Do not put batteries into fire or recharge them.
•Use only designated batteries.
•Remove the batteries if the remote control is not to be used for a
prolonged period.
Battery Life
Batteries last for 6 months to 1 year under normal use. However,
batteries provided are for confirming operation and may not last
that long. When the remote control fails to operate properly, re-
place the batteries with new ones.
Battery Leakage
When the batteries are totally exhausted and can no longer be
used, replace them immediately.
Leaving the batteries in the battery compartment causes leakage,
which may in turn lead to malfunction.
In cases where the leakage comes to contact with the skin, wipe it
away with a cloth. Otherwise, skin problems may occur.

Precautions for Installation
Please read the following carefully when installing this unit.
Minimum Space Required
Adjusting the Inclination
Vertical angle adjustment rangeAdjusting the vertical angle
While pushing the foot lever upward,
raise this unit to extend the front foot
(maximum extension is about 31
mm). To retract the foot, push the
level upward and lower the unit
slowly. This unit will be fixed at the
position where you released the foot
lever.
Fine-tuning the vertical angle
Lift this unit and adjust the front
adjustable feet on the two sides.Do not use a cover which may enclose
this unit air-tight or block the air inlets/
exhaust vents. Allow sufficient space
around this unit. When this unit is
enclosed in a space of dimensions as
indicated on the left, use an air-
conditioner so that internal and external
temperatures are the same.

Installation Environment
This unit is a precision device. Do not install it at the following
places. Doing so may cause fire or malfunction of the unit.
•Where there is water, humidity or dust
• Where the unit may be subjected to oily or cigarette smoke
• On a soft surface such as carpet or cushion
• Where the unit may be subjected to high temperature due to
direct sunlight
• Where temperature is high or low
Allowable operation temperature range : +5 °C to +35 °C
Allowable relative humidity range : 20% to 80% (no con- densation)
Allowable Storage Temperature range : –10 °C to +60 °C
• Any room in which there is cigarette smoke or grease
Even where smoke and grease levels are minimal, prolonged
exposure will affect this unit. This unit emits heat and optical
components are cooled down by taking in large amount of air.
The optical path may be soiled by grease/dirt, thus causing im-
ages to become dark or color projection to deteriorate. When
soiling on the optical components occurs, removal of grease/dirt
totally will not be possible.
Precaution for Usage
This unit uses a light-source lamp which reaches high tem-
perature when projecting. Please do not use it in the follow-
ing ways. Doing so may cause fire or malfunction of the unit.
• Projecting the image while the unit is on its side
• Projecting images outside the specified angle
Do not use this unit by setting it beyond ±5° horizontally (left/\
right) or ±25° vertically (up/down). This may cause color varia\
-
tion or shorten the lamp life.
• Projecting images at places where the air inlets and exhaust
vents are blocked

Projector and Screen Installation

When viewed from the left (or right) 
When viewed from the top (or bottom)
The optimum image can be obtained when the center of this unit lens and \
the screen are placed perpendicular to each other.
Take note of the projection angle when placing them. Failing to do so ma\
y give rise to trapezoidal distortion of the projected
image.
●This unit does not come with a function to correct trapezoidal distortio\
n.
Mounting  this Unit
When mounting of this unit is required, do it using the 3 embedded screw\
 holes (M6 nuts) at the bottom of this unit.
Precautions for Ceiling-mount
•To ceiling-mount this unit, special expertise and techniques are
necessary.
Be sure to ask your dealer (or a specialist) to perform mounting
(to ceilings, etc.).
• Do not mount at places that may be subjected to vibration and
shock.
• Depth of the screw holes (screw length) is 10 mm.
Use screws shorter than 10 mm but longer than 6 mm.
Otherwise, the screws may damage the internal parts of this unit
and cause malfunction.
• Install at a safe place in case this unit or a part of it may drop. If
the light-source lamp is broken, small pieces of glass from the
mesh of the filter may appear outside this unit.

 When reflecting off a screen
Ensure that total of distance A between this unit and screen  and distan\
ce B between remote control and screen  is within 7 m.
●As the effect of signals reflected from the remote control unit differ w\
ith the type of screen used, operable distance may
decrease.

 When directing remote control unit toward this unit
