about DLP™ technology
Thank you for purchasing a Cinego 
projector. Cinego uses cutting-edge 
technology to bring you the best quality 
projection for your home theater.
clarity
DLP™ technology comes closer than any 
other display solution to reproducing the 
exact mirror image of its source material. 
That’s why images projected by DLP™ 
technology are always crystal clear. 
The DMD chip is probably the world’s most 
sophisticated light switch. It contains a 
rectangular array of up to 1.3 million hinge-
mounted microscopic mirrors; each of these 
micromirrors measures less than one-fi fth 
the width of a human hair. 
When a DMD chip is coordinated with a 
digital video or graphic signal, a light source, and a projection lens, its mirrors can refl ect 
an all-digital image onto a screen or other 
surface. The DMD and the sophisticated 
electronics that surround it are what we call 
Digital Light Processing™ technology. 
The thousands of mirrors making up the 
Digital Micromirror Device at the heart of 
DLP™ technology are spaced less than one 
micron apart, resulting in a very high “fi ll 
factor.” By minimizing the gaps between 
pixels in a projected image, DLP™ projection 
systems create a seamless digital picture 
that’s sharp at any size—without the 
pixellation or “screen door” effect apparent 
in other technologies. 
color
DLP™ technology reproduces a range of 
colors up to eight times greater than that of 
analog projection systems.
In televisions and home theater systems, 
DLP™ projection creates rich blacks and 
darker shades than is possible with other 
technologies.You may notice that this unit is not quite 
as bright as a computer projector. This is 
because its optical color system is tailored 
for a cinematic experience.
reliability
DLP™ technology makes projectors, home 
theater systems and televisions more 
robust and more reliable. 
tried and true
DLP™ technology is in use wherever visual 
excellence is in demand. In fact, it’s the 
only display solution that enables movie 
projectors, televisions, home theater 
systems and business projectors to create 
an entirely digital connection between a 
graphic or video source and the screen in 
front of you. 
The result is maximum fi delity: a picture 
whose clarity, brilliance and color must be 
seen to be believed.
playable formats
Your projector will play the following types 
of discs:
• CD • CD-R/RW • DVD-R • VCD
• SVCD • DVD-RW • DVD+RW • DVD+R*
• DVD • Picture CD
*Some DVD+R discs may not be supported.
regional code
This DVD player is designed and 
maunfactured for playback of region “1” 
encoded DVD software. This unit can play 
only DVD discs labeled “1” or “ALL”.
Clearly visible on the cover of 
most DVDs, you’ll fi nd a picture 
of a globe with one or more 
numbers on it. This number must 
match your DVD player’s regional 
code. Otherwise, the disc cannot 
play properly.

connecting your projector
connecting power
Connect your projector to a standard 
AC wall outlet via the power cable.
connecting your sub woofer
Connect your projector to your sub woofer 
to experience higher-quality audio, via the 
audio cable, as shown.
setting up your projector
fi nd the ideal location for your new projector
Before you use your projector, be sure you carefully consider where you are going to place 
it. Think about the size and shape of your screen, location of power outlets, and the distance 
between the projector and the rest of your equipment.
CAUTION: DO NOT place your projector directly on a varnished wood surface. This 
projector produces a large amount of heat over time and will discolor wood furniture.
CAUTION: DO NOT move your projector at all while the lamp is hot. Wait until your 
projector has cooled before you change its position or adjust its height.
•  Place your projector on a surface with adequate ventilation. Do not put it on thick carpeting, 
which can restrict air fl ow, or near a heat source such as a heater vent or radiator, which can 
cause it to overheat.
•  Position your projector on a fl at surface at a right angle to the screen. The projector must be 
at least 39 inches from the projection screen.
•  Your desired picture size will determine how far away from the screen you should position 
your projector. The farther back you place the projector, the larger your picture will be (see 
page 27).
