x Health precautions to users viewing 3D images Before viewing, be sure to read health care precautions that may be found in the user’s manual included with your 3D eyeglasses or your 3D compatible content such as Blu-ray Discs, video games, computer’s video files and the like . To avoid any adverse symptoms, heed the following: • Do not use 3D eyeglasses for viewing any material other than 3D images. • Allow a distance of 2 m/7 feet or greater between the screen and a user. Viewing 3D images from too close a distance can strain your eyes. • Avoid viewing 3D images for a prolonged period of time. Take a break of 15 minutes or longer after ev ery hour of viewing. • If you or any member of your family has a history of light-sensitive seizures, consult a doctor before viewing 3D images. • While viewing 3D images, if you get sick such as nausea, dizziness, queasiness, headache, eyestrain, blurr y vision, convulsions, and numbness, stop viewing them. If symptoms still persist, consult a doctor. • View 3D images from the front of the screen. Viewing from an angle may cause f atigue or e yestrain. Power management function In order to keep power consumption low , the follo wing pow er management functions (1) and (2) hav e been set when shipped from the factory. Please display the on-screen menu and change the settings (1) and (2) according to the aim of using the projector. 1. STANDBY MODE (Factory preset: NORMAL) • When [NORMAL] is selected for [STANDBY MODE], the following terminals and functions will not work: HDMI OUT terminal, Ethernet/HDBaseT Port, USB Port, LAN functions, Mail Alert function (→ page 134) 2. AUTO POWER OFF (Factory preset: 1 hour) • When [1:00] is selected for [AUT O POWER OFF], you can enable the projector to automatically turn off in 1 hour if there is no signal received by any input or if no operation is performed. (→ page 135) Important Information
xi Clearance for Installing the Projector Allow ample clearance between the projector and its surroundings as shown below. The high temperature exhaust coming out of the device may be sucked into the device again. Avoid installing the projector in a place where air movement from the HVAC is directed at the projector. Heated air from the HVAC can be taken in by the projector’s intake vent. If this happens, the temperature inside the projector will rise too high causing the over-temperature protector to automatically turn off the projectors power. • Concerning to the portrait projection, please refer “Por trait projection” on page 154. Example 1 – If there are walls on both sides of the projector. 30 cm/11.8" or greater30 cm/11.8" or g reater Intake v ent NOTE: The drawing shows the proper clearance required for the front, back and \ top of the projector. Example 2 – If there is a wall behind the projector. 50 cm/19.7" or greater Lens Exhaust v ent NOTE: The drawing shows the proper clearance required for the right, left, and\ top of the projector.

Introduction
3 ❷ Introduction to the Projector This section introduces you to your new projector and describes the features and controls. Congratulations on Your Purchase of the Projector This projector is one of the very best projectors av ailable today . The projector enables you to project precise images up to 500 inches across (measured diagonally) from your PC or Mac computer (desktop or notebook), VCR, Blu-ra y player, or document camera. You can use the projector on a tabletop or cart, you can use the projector to project images from behind the screen, and the projector can be permanently mounted on a ceiling*1. The remote control can be used wirelessly. *1 Do not attempt to mount the projector on a ceiling yourself. The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure proper operation and reduce the risk of bodily injury. In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the installation must be in accordance with any local building codes. Please consult y our dealer f or more inf ormation. General • Single-chip DLP projector with high resolution and high brightness Realized to project the image in the resolution 1920 × 1200 pixels (WUXGA), the aspect ratio in 16:10, and the brightness in 8000 lumens. Light source · Brightness • A long-life laser diode is equipped in the light module The product can be operated at low cost because the laser light source can be used for a long time without requir- ing replacement or maintenance. • Brightness can be adjusted within a wide range Unlike with ordinary light sources, the brightness can be adjusted from 20 to 100% in 1% increments. • [CONSTANT BRIGHTNESS] mode Brightness normally decreases with use, but by selecting [CONSTANT BRIGHTNESS] mode, sensors inside the projector detect and automatically adjust the output, thereby maintaining constant brightness throughout the life of the light module. However, if brightness output is set at the maximum, brightness will decrease with use. Installation • Wide range of optional lenses selectable according to the place of installation This projector supports 8 types of optional lenses, providing a selection of lenses adapted to a var iety of places of installation and projection methods. In addition, the lenses can be mounted and removed in one touch. Note that no lens is mounted upon shipment from the factory. Please purchase optional lenses separ ately. • This projector can be installed any angle within vertical and horizontal 360° range, howe ver, life of optical parts will be shorten in the following installation state: • When the projector is installed on which lens faces downward. • When the intake vent on the projector side faces downward in the portrait installation. (See page 154) • Double stackable for high light output projection By stacking 2 projectors, increased brightness on a large screen is possible. • Power lens control for quick and easy adjustment By using buttons on the projector or the remote control, zoom, focus, and position (lens shift) can be adjusted. 1.
