8 Observe the following safeguards when setting up your projector. Caution concerning the lamp unit Potential hazard of glass particles if lamp ruptures. In case of lamp rupture, contact your nearest Marantz Authorized Dealer or Service Center for replacement. See “Replacing the Lamp” on page 54. Caution concerning the setup of the projector For minimal servicing and to maintain high image quality, Marantz recommends that this projector be installed in an area free from humidity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the projector is subjected to these environments, the vents and lens must be cleaned more often. As long as the projector is regularly cleaned, use in these environments will not reduce the overall operation life of the unit. Internal cleaning should only be performed by Marantz Authorized Dealer or Service Center. Do not set up the projector in places ex- posed to direct sunlight or bright light. Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly on the screen washes out the colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room. Caution regarding placing of the projec- tor Place the projector on a level site within the adjustment range (8 degrees) of the adjust- ment foot. After the projector is purchased, a faint smell from the vent may appear when the power is first turned on. This is normal and is not a malfunction. It will disappear after the projec- tor is used for a while. When using the projector in high-altitude areas such as mountains (at altitudes of approximately 4,900 feet (1,500 meters) or more) When you use the projector in high-altitude areas with thin air, set “Fan Mode” to “High”. Neglecting this can affect the longevity of the optical system. Warning about placing the projector in a high position When placing the projector in a high position, ensure that it is secured carefully to avoid per- sonal injury caused by the projector falling down. Do not subject the projector to hard im- pact and/or vibration. Protect the lens so as not to hit or damage the surface of the lens. Rest your eyes occasionally. Continuously watching the screen for long hours will cause eye strain. Be sure to occa- sionally rest your eyes. Avoid locations with extremes of tem- perature. The operating temperature of the projector is from 41°F to 95°F (+5°C to +35°C). The storage temperature of the projector is from –4°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C). Do not block the exhaust and intake vents. Allow at least 11 13/16 inches (30 cm) of space between the exhaust vent and the nearest wall or obstruction. Be sure that the intake vent and the exhaust vent are not obstructed. If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro- tection circuit will automatically put the pro- jector into standby mode to prevent overheat damage. This does not indicate a malfunc- tion. (See pages 52 and 53.) Remove the pro- jector power cord from the wall outlet and wait at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked, plug the power cord back in and turn on the projector. This will return the projector to the normal operating condition. 71@6@&/@06.7.19, 4:22 PM Page 8EPCF1BHF.BLFS+11$
Introduction 9 When turning off the projector, the cooling fan runs to decrease the internal temperature for a while. Unplug the power cord after the cool- ing fan stops. The period the cooling fan runs will vary, depending on the circumstances and the internal temperature. Caution regarding usage of the projector When using the projector, be sure not to sub- ject it to hard impact and/or vibration, as this can result in damage. Take extra care with the lens. Before moving the projector, be sure to unplug the power cord from the wall out- let, and disconnect any other cables con- nected to it. Do not carry the projector by holding the lens. When storing the projector, re-attach the lens cap. (See page 11). Do not expose the projector to direct sunlight or place next to heat sources. Doing so may affect the cabinet color or cause deformation of the plastic cover. Other connected equipment When connecting a computer or other audio- visual equipment to the projector, make the connections AFTER unplugging the power cord of the projector from the AC outlet and turning off the equipment to be connected. Please read the user guides of the projector and the equipment to be connected for in- structions on how to make the connections. Info •The cooling fan regulates the internal tem- perature, and its performance is automatically controlled. The sound of the fan may change during projector operation due to changes in the fan speed. This does not indicate mal- function. •Do not unplug the power cord during projec- tion or cooling fan operation. This can cause damage due to rise in internal temperature, as the cooling fan also stops. Using the projector in other countries The power supply voltage and the shape of the plug may vary depending on the region or country you are using the projector in. When using the projector overseas, be sure to use an appropriate power cord for the coun- try you are in. Temperature monitor function If the projector star ts to overheat due to setup problems or blockage of the air vents, “ ” and “” will illuminate in the lower left corner of the picture. If the temperature continues to rise, the lamp will turn off, the temperature warn- ing indicator on the projector will blink, and af- ter a 90-second cooling-off per iod the projector will enter standby mode. Refer to “Maintenance Indicators” on page 52 for details. 71@6@&/@06.7.19, 4:22 PM Page 9EPCF1BHF.BLFS+11$
