✽ Projection lens not included.
OWNER’S MANUAL
Features and Design
This  Multimedia  Projector  is  designed  with  most  advanced  technology  for  portability,  durability,  and 
ease of use. This projector utilizes built-in multimedia features, a palette of 1.07 billion colors, and matrix 
liquid crystal display (LCD) technology.
 ◆ Functionally Rich
 ◆ Motor-driven Lens Shift
This  projector  has  many  useful  functions  such 
as  lens  shifting,  ceiling  and  rear  projection, 
perpendicular omnidirectional projection, variety of 
lens options, etc. 
 ◆ Simple Computer System Setting
The  projector  has  the  Multi-scan  system  to 
conform  to  almost  all  computer  output  signals 
quickly (p.35). Supported resolution up to WUXGA.
 ◆ Security Function
The Security function helps you to ensure security 
of the projector. With the Key lock function, you can 
lock  the  operation  on  the  side  control  or  remote 
control  (p.64).  PIN  code  lock  function  prevents 
unauthorized use of the projector (pp.64–65).
 ◆ Power Management
The  Power  management  function  reduces  power 
consumption and maintains lamp life (p.63).
 ◆ Picture-in-Picture
This projector is capable of projecting two images 
simultaneously  by  using  either  built-in  picture-in-
picture mode or picture-by-picture mode (pp.56-57).
 ◆ Multilanguage Menu Display
Operation  menu  is  available  in  12  languages; 
English,  German,  French,  Italian,  Spanish, 
Portuguese,  Dutch,  Swedish,  Russian,  Chinese, 
Korean, and Japanese (p.54).
 ◆ Hot-Swap Lamps 
Hot-swap  lamps  enable  you  to  replace  the  failed 
lamp  with  a  new  one  without  turning  off  the 
projector.
Projection lens can be moved up, down, right and 
left  with  the  motor-driven  lens  shift  function. This 
function makes it easy to provide projected image 
where  you  want.  Zoom  and  focus  can  also  be 
adjusted with a motor-driven operation. (p.28)
* Zoom  and  focus  functions  may  not  operate 
depending on the optional lens.
 ◆ Shutter Function
The  projector  is  equipped  with  the  shutter  that 
provides  complete  blackness  for  a  while  the 
projected  image  is  not  needed  with  keeping  the 
projector  on. The  Shutter  management  function 
allows  you  to  set  the  timer.  It  prevents  leaving 
the projector on with the shutter closed for a long 
time. (p.66)
 ◆ Multi Versatile Platform
This  projector  applies  various  input/output 
terminals  and  2  terminal  slots  for  expansion  to 
tune  to  diversity  of  signals  from  computers  and 
video  equipment  (pp.19-21).  For  optional  interface 
boards, contact sales dealer where you purchased 
the projector.
 ◆ Wired LAN Function
This projector is loaded with a wired LAN function 
to  control  and  set-up  the  projector  remotely  via 
network.  For  details,  refer  to  the  owner’s  manual 
“Network Set-up and Operation”.
 ◆ Active Maintenance Cleaner (AMC) unit
The  built-in  filter  cleaning  unit  with  a  brush 
automatically  removes  large  particles  from  the 
mesh filter, and the electrostatic honeycomb filter 
and  electrostatic  pleated  filter  capture  medium 
and small particles. In addition, with the use of the 
smoke  resistant  filter  (optional),  you  can  filter  out 
even oil smoke.

Safety Precaution
WARNING:   l THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED.
 
l TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC 
SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO 
RAIN OR MOISTURE.
–  This projector produces intense light from the projection lens. 
Do not stare directly into the lens, otherwise eye damage could 
result. Be especially careful that children do not stare directly 
into the beam.
Install the projector in a proper position. Otherwise it may 
result in a fire hazard.
– 
–  Allowing the proper amount of space on the top, sides, and 
rear of the projector cabinet is critical for proper air circulation 
and cooling of the unit. The diagrams shown here indicates the 
minimum space required. If the projector is to be built into a 
compartment or similarly enclosed, these minimum distances 
must be maintained.

example, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, etc...
Do  not  use  att achments  not  recommended  by  the 
manufacturer 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  manufacturer,  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 
surfaces  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  installation 
such as a book case unless proper ventilation is provided.

qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
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  following 
the  operating  instructions. Adjust  only  those  controls 
that  are  covered  by  the  operating  instructions  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.

Safety Instructions
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 exhausted from the exhaust vents. When 
using or installing the projector, the following 
precautions should be taken. 
–  Do not put any flammable object or spray can near 
the projector, hot air is exhausted from the air vents.
–  Keep the exhaust vents at least 3’ (1 m) away from 
any objects.
–  Do not touch peripheral parts of the exhaust vents, 
especially screws and metallic parts. These areas will 
become hot while the projector is being used.
–  Do not put anything on the cabinet. Objects put on 
the cabinet will not only get damaged but also may 
cause fire hazard by heat.
–   Do not cover vents with papers or other materials.
–  Make sure that there are no objects under the 
projector. An object under the projector may prevent 
the projector from taking cooling air through bottom 
vent.
–  When detaching the adjustable feet, always keep at 
least 50 mm between the bottom of the projector 
and installation surface. 
Cooling fans are provided to cool down the projector. 
The fans’ running speed is changed according to the 
temperature inside the projector.
IMPORTANT!
Filter Maintenance!!
The projector uses a lamp which generates 
significant heat. The cooling fans and air vents are 
provided to dissipate the heat by drawing air into the 
housing and the filter is located in the intake vent 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.
If the projector reaches a time set in the timer 
setting, the icon as shown in Fig. 1 appears on the 
screen and WARNING FILTER indicator lights up (see 
below), indicating that cleaning or replacing the filter 
is necessary.
If the projector detects that the filter is clogged, the 
icon as shown in Fig. 2 appears on the screen and 
WARNING FILTER indicator lights up (see below). 
Stop using the projector immediately and replace the 
electrostatic honeycomb filter and the electrostatic 
pleated filter.
Blocking the air vents and leaving the projector 
uncleaned for a long time may not only damage the 
projector and may require costly repairs but may also 
cause accidents or fire.
For maintenance of the filter, refer to “Filter counter” 
on page 68 and “Maintenance and Care” on pages 
72-74.
Damages to the projector caused by using an 
uncleaned filter or improper maintenance will 
void the warranty on the projector.
