example, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool,
etc...
Do not use attachments not recommended by the manu-
facturer as they may cause hazards.
Do not place this projector on an unstable cart, stand, or
table. The projector may fall, causing serious injury to a
child or adult, and serious damage to the projector. Use
only with a cart or stand recommended by the manufac-
turer, or sold with the projector. Wall or shelf mounting
should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should
use a mounting kit approved by the manufacturers.
An appliance and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick
stops, excessive force, and uneven sur-
faces may cause the appliance and cart
combination to overturn.
Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet
are provided for ventilation, to ensure reliable operation
of the equipment and to protect it from overheating.
The openings should never be covered with cloth or
other materials, and the bottom opening should not be
blocked by placing the projector on a bed, sofa, rug, or
other similar surface. This projector should never be
placed near or over a radiator or heat register.
This projector should not be placed in a built-in installa-
tion such as a bookcase unless proper ventilation is
provided.
Never push objects of any kind into this projector through
cabinet slots as they may touch dangerous voltage points
or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the projector.
Do not install the projector near the ventilation duct of air-
conditioning equipment.
This projector should be operated only from the type of
power source indicated on the marking label. If you are
not sure of the type of power supplied, consult your au-
thorized dealer or local power company.
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this
can result in fire or electric shock. Do not allow anything to
rest on the power cord. Do not locate this projector where
the cord may be damaged by persons walking on it.
Do not attempt to service this projector yourself as open-
ing or removing covers may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified
service personnel.
Unplug this projector from wall outlet and refer servicing
to qualified service personnel under the following condi-
tions:
a. When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
b. If liquid has been spilled into the projector.
c. If the projector has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the projector does not operate normally by follow-
ing the operating instructions. Adjust only those
controls that are covered by the operating instruc-
tions as improper adjustment of other controls may
result in damage and will often require extensive
work by a qualified technician to restore the projector
to normal operation.
e. If the projector has been dropped or the cabinet has
been damaged.
f. When the projector exhibits a distinct change in per-
formance-this indicates a need for service.
When replacement parts are required, be sure the ser-
vice technician has used replacement parts specified by
the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as
the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in
fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

Important Information
xi
Air Circulation
Openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To
ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it
from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or
covered.
CAUTION
Hot air is from the exhaust vent. When using or installing
the projector, the following precautions should be taken.
 Do not put any flammable objects or spray cans near
the projector, hot air is exhausted from the air vents.
 Keep the exhaust vent at least 3 feet (1 m) away from
any objects.
 Do not touch peripheral parts in the exhaust vents,
especially screws and metallic parts. These areas will
become hot while the projector is used.
 Do not put anything on the cabinet. Objects put on
the cabinet will not only get damaged but may also
cause a fire hazard.
Cooling fans are provided to cool down the projector. The
fans’ running speed is changed according to the tem-
perature inside the projector.
IMPORTANT!
Clean the Filter Regularly!!
The projector uses a lamp which generates significant
heat. The cooling fans and air vents are provided to dis-
sipate the heat by drawing air into the housing and the
filter is located in the intake vents to prevent dust from
getting inside of the projector.
In order to care for the projector appropriately, regular
cleaning is required. Remove any dirt or dust that has
accumulated on the projector and on or in the filter.
When the “Please clean filter” message is displayed, stop
using the projector immediately and clean or replace the
filter.
Blocking the air vents and leaving the projector un-
cleaned for a long time may not only damage the projec-
tor and may require costly repairs but may also cause
accidents or fire.
For maintenance of the filter, refer to “Option” on page 83
and “Replacing the Filters” on pages 97 – 98.
Damages to the projector caused by using an
un-cleaned filter or improper maintenance will void
the warranty on the projector.
Installing the Projector in Proper Position
Install the projector properly. Improper installation may reduce the lamp lifetime and cause a fire hazard.
Do not tilt the projector
more than 10 degrees
above and below.
NO UPWARD
Do not point the projector
up to project an image.
NO DOWNWARD
Do not point the projector
down to project an image.
NO SIDEWAYS
Do not put the projector
on either side to project
an image.

Important:
Avoid using the projector with bright fluorescent lighting turned on. Certain high-frequency fluorescent lights
can disrupt remote control operation.
1. Be sure nothing obstructs the path between the remote control and the projector. If the path between re-
mote and projector is obstructed, you can bounce the remote signal off certain reflective surfaces such as
projector screens.
2. The buttons and keys on the projector have the same functions as the corresponding buttons on the re-
mote control. This user’s manual describes the functions based on the remote control.
Note:
* To turn off the projector, press the STAND-BY button twice.

Operating Range for Wireless Remote Control
Point the remote control toward the projector (to Infrared Remote Re-
ceivers) when pressing the buttons. Maximum operating range for the
remote control is about 16.4 feet (5 m) and 60 degrees in front and rear
of the projector.
Infrared remote receivers are provided both in front and back of the pro-
jector. You can conveniently use both of the receivers.
Remote Control Precautions
The following precautions ensure that the remote operates correctly and
safely.
x Use two (2) AA or LR6 type alkaline batteries.
x Always replace batteries in sets.
x Do not use a new battery with a used one.
x Avoid contact with water or liquid.
x Do not expose the remote control to moisture or heat.
x Do not drop the remote control.
x If the battery has leaked on the remote control, carefully wipe the
case clean and install new batteries.
x Risk of an explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
x Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
Remote Control Codes
This projector provides eight different remote control codes (Code 1–Code 8); the factory-set, initial code (Code 1) and the
other seven codes (Code 2 to Code 8). This switching function prevents remote control interference when operating sev-
eral projectors or video equipment at the same time.
The same code should be set on both the projector and the remote control.
For example operating the projector in “Code 7”, both the projector and the remote control must be switched to “Code 7”.
To change the code for the projector;
Select a remote control code in the Menu.
To change the code for the remote control;
Check the Reset Switch to Use position in the compartment lid on back of the remote control.
With holding down the MENU button, press the IMAGE button. By pressing the IMAGE button, the code switches in a se-
quential order.
To reset the code for the remote control;
Slide the Reset Switch to "Reset position" in the compartment lid on back of the remote control.

s Making Connections
Connecting Your PC or Macintosh Computer
Enabling the computer’s external display
Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector. When
using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display. Usually, the combi-
nation of the Fn-key along with one of the 12 function keys activates the external display.
To connect a PC or Macintosh computer to the projector, refer to the following guide.
1. Connect a computer to the projector through one of the three available input data connections before turning
on the PC or the projector. The best signal order (from best to least suitable) is as follows:
 Computer 3 in (see item 1, r Terminal Panel Features on page 10) is a digital signal and offers the best
connection to your computer.
Note:

t Connecting the Supplied Power Cable
This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100–120V or 200–240V AC and it automatically selects the correct input volt-
age. It is designed to work with single-phase power systems having a grounded neutral conductor. To reduce the risk of
electrical shock, do not plug into any other type of power system. If you are not sure of the type of power being supplied,
consult your authorized dealer or service station. Connect the projector with all peripheral equipment before turning the
projector on.
CAUTION For safety, unplug the AC power cord when the projector is not in use. When the projector is con-
nected to an outlet with the AC power cord, it is in stand-by mode and consumes a small amount of
electrical power.
NOTE ON THE POWER CORD
The AC power cord must meet the requirements of the country where you are utilizing the projector. Confirm the AC plug
type with the chart below. The proper AC power cord must be used. If the supplied AC power cord does not match your AC
outlet, contact your sales dealer.

Replacing the Lamps
When a lamp reaches the end of it’s usable life, the following message is displayed. Replace the lamp.
The projection lamps should be replaced when they burn out. They should only be replaced with a certified replacement
part, contact your local dealer if unsure.
Note:
1. Lamps are positioned differently. Take care not to force the lamps when replacing.
2. Installation of both lamp modules (Lamp 1 and Lamp 2) is required to operate the projector in dual or sin-
gle lamp mode. If only a single lamp module is installed, the projector's lamp will not turn on and will appear
as a lamp failure.
3. Lamps last approximately 2000-2100 hours (2500-2600 hours in Eco mode) and the End of lamp life
message is displayed during the lamps' final 100 hours of operational life. Please replace during 2000-2100
hour.
Important:
1. The lamp contains a certain amount of mercury and should be disposed of according to local ordinance
regulations.
2. Avoid touching the glass surface of the new lamp: doing so may shorten its operation life.
CAUTION
Lamp Handling Precautions
This projector uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly. Improper handling
may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.
x Lamp life may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no guar-
antee of the same life for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period
of time than other similar lamps.
x If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if LAMP 1 and/or LAMP 2 light up,
replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the projector has cooled down. (Follow care-
fully the instructions in the Lamp Replacement section of this manual.) Continuous use of the lamp
with LAMP 1 and/or LAMP 2 lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.
x A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as
its lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or condi-
tions in which the projector and lamp are being used.
If a lamps explodes, the following safety precautions should be taken:
Disconnect the projector’s AC plug from the AC outlet immediately. Contact an authorized service station
for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp. Additionally, check carefully to ensure that there are
no broken shards or pieces of glass around the projector or coming out from the cooling air circulation
holes. Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully. No one should check the inside of the pro-
jector except those who are authorized trained technicians and who are familiar with projector service.
Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those who are not appropriately trained to
do so, may result in an accident or injury caused by pieces of broken glass.

t Operation Using HTTP Browser
Overview
The use of HTTP server functions will allow control of the projector from a web browser without the installation of special
software. Please be sure to use “Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.x” or a higher version for the web browser. (This device uses
“JavaScript” and “Cookies” and the browser should be set to accept these functions. The setting method will vary depend-
ing on the version of browser. Please refer to the help files and the other information provided in your software).
Access is gained to the HTTP server functions by specifying the following address in the entry column of the URL:
http:// <the projector’s IP address> /index.html
http:// <the projector's IP address> /lanconf.html
Note:
The display or button responses can be slowed down or operation may not be accepted depending the set-
tings of your network. Should this happen, consult your network administrator. The projector may not
respond if its buttons are repeatedly pressed in rapid intervals. Should this happen, wait a moment and re-
peat. If you still can’t get any response, turn off and back on the projector.
Preparation Before Use
Make network connections, set up the projector and confirm that it is complete before engaging in browser operations
(see Network setting on page 80 for more information).
Operation with a browser that uses a proxy server may not be possible depending on the type of proxy server and the set-
ting method. Although the type of proxy server will be a factor, it is possible that items that have actually been set will not
be displayed depending on the effectiveness of the cache, and the contents set from the browser may not be reflected in
operation. It is recommended that a proxy server not be used unless it is unavoidable.
Handling of the Address for Operation by Using a Browser
Regarding the actual address that is entered for the address or entered to the URL column when operation of the projector
is via a browser, the host name can be used as it is when the host name corresponding to the IP address of the projector
has been registered to the domain name server by a network administrator, or the host name corresponding to the IP ad-
dress of the projector has been set in the “HOSTS” file of the computer being used.
Example 1:
When the IP address of the projector is 192.168.73.1, access is gained to the HTTP server functions by specifying
http://192.168.73.1/index.html for the address or the entry column of the URL.
