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 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

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.
