Placement
Placement Styles
As shown in the figures below, this device can be placed in 4 different styles. The factory setting is floor-mounted front projection. Set the Projection mode in the default setting menu p.31 , in accordance with your needs. Floor-mounted front projection Floor-mounted rear projection
Be sure to align the plus and minus ends of the batteries properly.
Operating the projector from the rear Two batteries (R6, SIZE AA) are used.
WARNING
Always obey the instructions listed in IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS when placing the unit. Attempting to clean/replace the lamp at a high site by yourself may cause you to drop down, thus resulting in injury. If you wish to mount the projector on the ceiling, be sure to ask your dealer to do so. Mounting the projector on a ceiling requires special ceiling brackets (sold separately) and specialized knowledge. Improper mounting could cause the projector to fall, resulting in an accident. If the projector is ceiling-mounted, install the breaker for turning off the power in case of anomaly. Let everyone involved with the use of the projector know that fact.

During cooling, the LAMP indicator flashes. In this state, the power cannot be turned back on. After the LAMP indicator goes off, the cooling fan continues to operate for a short while, in order to expel excess internal heat. If you are in a hurry, there is no problem with unplugging the power cord or turning off the main power switch in this state. In standby mode
Notes
When the projector is turned on the next time, the Language and Lamp power menus do not appear upon startup. However, if Reset all is executed from the Default setting menu p.31 , the Language and Lamp power menus will be displayed the next time when the power is turned on. The language can also be set via the Display setting menu p.30 and Lamp power via the Default setting menu p.31 . This owners manual assumes that English has been selected.

Note
The projector consumes about 12W of power in standby. We recommend that you unplug the power cord or turn off the main power switch if you will not be using the projector for an extended period.
PRECAUTION
If the power cord is unplugged before cooling is complete, give the lamp time (about 5 minutes) to cool before plugging it back in. If the lamp overheats, it may fail to light, and its lifetime will be shortened.
Notes
When [Auto input search] is set to [On] in the default setting menu p.31 , the image of the equipment which is connected and turned on is projected. Moving pictures generated with the DVD software for computers may appear unnatural if it is projected with this projector, but it is not a malfunction.

buttons
The speaker volume can be adjusted when an audio signal is being input.
Note that a lamp characteristics may rarely cause the brightness to fluctuate slightly. A lamp is consumable item. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and the lamp could burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The lifetime of the lamp depends on conditions of use.) The DMDTM is made using extremely advanced technology, but there may be black spots (pixels that do not light) or bright spots (pixels that are constantly lit) on the panel. Please note that these are not malfunctions. Although this projector supports a wide range of RGB signals p.39 , any resolutions not supported by this projector (XGA) will be expanded or shrunk, which will affect image quality slightly. To view high-quality images, it is recommended that the computers external output should be set to XGA resolution. With some models of computer having LCD displays or the like, displaying images simultaneously on the projector and the monitors display may prevent the images from displaying properly. If this happens, turn off the computers LCD display. For information on how to turn off the LCD display, see the owners manual of your computer. If a signal not supported by the projector is input, the Unsupported signal will appear. If no signal is being input from the connected device, the No signal will appear. If an unavailable operation button is pressed, the icon will appear.

Maintenance
About lamp
The products light source is a mercury lamp that lights at increased internal pressure. Be sure to fully understand the following characteristics of the lamp and handle it with extreme care. The lamp may explode with a loud noise due to impact or deterioration, or fail to light at the expiration of its life. How long it takes before the lamp explodes or the life expires may vary greatly by lamp. Some may explode shortly after first use. (Free replacement is available if the lamp explodes within the warranty period. Contact the dealer from whom you purchased the product in such a case.) Explosion is likely to happen if the lamp is used after the replacement period has elapsed. When the lamp explodes, the broken pieces of glass may get inside the product or be released outside from the openings for ventilation. When the lamp explodes, a slight amount of mercury gas enclosed in the lamp along with glass dust may be released from the openings for ventilation.

Lamp replacement
A lamp is consumable supplies. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and the lamp could burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The lifetime of the lamp depends on condition of use.) If this happens, replace it with a new one.
WARNING
If the projector is mounted on a ceiling, request a lamp replacement from your projector dealership. When replacing, always use lamp TLPLW3 (sold separately).
CAUTION
If you have been using the projector, the lamp will be very hot, and may cause burn injuries. Wait for the lamp to cool (for longer than 1 hour) before replacing it. If the lamp should break, please handle with care to avoid injury due to broken pieces and contact your dealer for repair service.
