the image position and/or focus as necessary.
Since the projector features an ultra short throw, be aware that it is required to select a
screen carefully to have better performance.
- A soft screen such as a pull-down screen may cause serious distortion of a projected
image. A hard screen such as a board screen is recommended for use with this projector.
- A high-gain screen such as a bead screen that has narrow viewing angle is not suitable
for this projector. A low-gain screen (around 1.0) such as a matte screen that has wide
viewing angle is recommended for use with this projector.
- A screen with a weave pattern may cause moir on the projected image, which is not a
failure of the projector. A screen that has less moir effects is recommended for use with
this projector.

within 3 meters about.
30 30
Approx.
3m
NOTE The remote control signal reflected in the screen or the like may be available.
If it is difficult to send the signal to the sensor directly, attempt to make the signal reflect.
The remote control uses infrared light to send signals to the projector (Class 1
LED), so be sure to use the remote control in an area free from obstacles that
could block the remote controls signal to the projector.
The remote control may not work correctly if strong light (such as direct sun
light) or light from an extremely close range (such as from an inverter fluorescent
lamp) shines on the remote sensor of the projector. Adjust the position of
projector avoiding those lights.

Replacing the lamp
A lamp has finite product life. Using the lamp for long periods of time could cause
the pictures darker or the color tone poor. Note that each lamp has a different
lifetime, and some may burst or burn out soon after you start using them.
Preparation of a new lamp and early replacement are recommended. To prepare
a new lamp, make contact with your dealer and tell the lamp type number.
Type number : DT01181
lamp cover
Replacing the lamp
Turn the projector off, and unplug the power cord.
Allow the projector to cool for at least 45 minutes.
Prepare a new lamp. If the projector is mounted on
a ceiling, or if the lamp has broken, also ask the
dealer to replace the lamp.
In case of replacement by yourself, follow the following procedure.
Loosen the screw (marked by arrow) of the lamp
cover and then slide and lift the lamp cover to the
side to remove it.
Loosen the 2 screws (marked by arrow) of the lamp,
and slowly pick up the lamp by the handle. Never
loosen any other screws.
Insert the new lamp, and retighten firmly the 2
screws of the lamp that are loosened in the previous
process to lock it in place.
While putting the interlocking parts of the lamp cover
and the projector together, slide the lamp cover back in
place. Then firmly fasten the screw of the lamp cover.
Turn the projector on and reset the lamp time using
the LAMP TIME item in the OPTION menu.

Lamp warning
HIGH VOLTAGE
HIGH TEMPERATURE
HIGH PRESSURE
WARNING The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp
can break with a loud bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, handled while hot, or
worn over time. Note that each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or
burn out soon after you start using them. In addition, if the bulb bursts, it is possible
for shards of glass to fly into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercury and
dust containing fine particles of glass to escape from the projectors vent holes.
About disposal of a lamp: This product contains a mercury lamp; do not put
it in a trash. Dispose of it in accordance with environmental laws.
For lamp recycling, go to www.lamprecycle.org (in the US).
For product disposal, consult your local government agency
or www.eiae.org (in the US) or www.epsc.ca (in Canada).
For more information, call your dealer.
Disconnect
the plug
from the
power
outlet

If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does),
unplug the power cord from the outlet, and make sure to request a
replacement lamp from your local dealer. Note that shards of glass
could damage the projectors internals, or cause injury during handling,
so please do not try to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.
If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), ventilate the
room well, and make sure not to inhale the gas or fine particles that come out
from the projector's vent holes, and not to get them into your eyes or mouth.
Before replacing the lamp, turn the projector off and unplug the power
cord, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool sufficiently.
Handling the lamp while hot can cause burns, as well as damaging the lamp.
Never unscrew except the appointed (marked by an arrow) screws.
Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is mounted on a wall
or ceiling. This is dangerous, since if the lamps bulb has broken, the
shards will fall out when the cover is opened. In addition, working in
high places is dangerous, so ask your local dealer to have the lamp
replaced even if the bulb is not broken.
Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed. At the lamp
replacing, make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose
screws could result in damage or injury.
Use only the lamp of the specified type. Use of a lamp that does not
meet the lamp specifications for this model could cause a fire, damage or
shorten the life of this product.
If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, it is possible
that there are electrical problems elsewhere besides the lamp. If this
happens, consult your local dealer or a service representative.
Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst during use.
Using the lamp for long periods of time, could cause it dark, not to light up or to burst.
When the pictures appear dark, or when the color tone is poor, please replace the
lamp as soon as possible. Do not use old (used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.
