Avoid use in locations where exhaust or streams of air from projector, other devices and air conditioners flow between the projector and the screen. The lens of projector is affected by the heat from the luminous source. Because of this, the focusing may not be stable right f f after the power is turned on. Focusing is stabled after projecting image for 30 minutes and longer. Do not touch the surface of the projector lens with your bare hands. r r If the surface of the projection lens becomes dirty from fingerprints or anything else, this will be magnified and projected onto the screen. Attach the supplied lens cap to the projection lens when you do not use the projector. LCD Panel r r The display unit of this projector comprises three LCD panels. Although an LCD panel is a product of high-precision technology, some of the pixels on the projected image may be missing or constantly lit. Please note that this is not a malfunction. Displaying a still image for a longer time may result in an after-image on the LCD panels. If this happens, display the all white screen in the test pattern for an hour or more. Optical components r r Operating the projector in an environment with high temperature or heavy exposure to dust or tobacco smoke will reduce the service life of the optical components, such as the LCD panel and polarizing plate, and may necessitate their replacement within less than one year of use. For details, consult your dealer. Lamp r r The luminous source of the projector is a mercury lamp with high internal pressure. A high pressure mercury lamp has following characteristics. The brightness of the lamp will decrease by duration of usage. f f The lamp may burst with sound or shorten life by shock or chipping. f f The life of the lamp varies greatly depending on individual specificities and usage conditions. In particular, continuous use f f over 12 hours and frequent on/off switching of the power greatly deteriorate the lamp and affect the lamp life. In rare cases, the lamp burst shortly after the projection. f f The risk of bursting increases when the lamp is used beyond its replacement cycle. Make sure to replace the lamp unit f f consistently. (“When to replace the lamp unit” (Æpage 97)) If the lamp bursts, gas contained inside of the lamp is released in a form of smoke. f f It is recommended to store replacement lamps for contingency. f f It is recommended to have authorized engineer or your dealer replace the lamp unit. f f 16 - ENGLISH Chapter 1 Preparation - Precautions for use

Before connecting to the projector

Read carefully the instruction manual for the device to be connected. f f Turn off the power switch of the devices before connecting cables. f f Take note of the following points before connecting the cables. Failure to do so may result in malfunctions. f f - When connecting a cable to a device connected to the projector or the projector itself, touch any nearby metallic objects to eliminate static electricity from your body before performing work. - Do not use unnecessarily long cables to connect to a device connected to the projector or to the projector body. The longer the cable, the more it is susceptible to noise. Since using a cable while it is wound makes it act like an antenna, it is more susceptible to noise. - When connecting cables, connect GND first, then insert the connecting terminal of the connecting device in a straight manner. If any connection cable is not supplied with the device, or if no optional cable is available for connection of the device, f f prepare a necessary system connection cable to suit the device. Video signals containing too much jitter may cause the images on the screen to randomly wobble or wafture. f f In this case, a time base corrector (TBC) must be connected. The projector accepts video signals, S-video signals, YC f f BCR/YPBPR signals and analog RGB signals (synchronous signals are TTL level), and digital signal. Some computer models are not compatible with the projector. f f When using long cables to connect with each of equipment to the projector, there is a possibility that the image will not be f f output correctly unless a compensator is used.
