Caution:Be sure to turn off the lamp and unplug the powercord from the wall outlet before you perform anymaintenance on the projector.

Cleaning of the air-filterClean the air-filter fre-quently (about once amonth). If the filter orventilation grilles becomeclogged with dirt or dust,the temperature insidethe projector may rise andcause troubles, such asdamage to the insideparts and shortening thelife of the panels.• When the temperature

inside the projector rises, the STATUS indicatorwill blink orange and the lamp will be turned off.

1. Put the projector upsidedown and raise the lock ofthe filter cover in thedirection of the arrow.

2. Remove the air-filter.

3. Wash the air-filter orchange it with a new filter.• Use water or diluted

mild detergent to cleanthe filter. Rinse the filterthoroughly and let it drycompletely.

4. Attach the air-filter.

5. Attach the filter cover to the projector.• Make sure that the air-filter is attached cor-

rectly without displacement.

Important:• If the filter is damaged or becomes extremely

dirty, change it with a new filter. Contact yourdealer for a new filter.

• The projector will not turn on if the air-filter coveris attached improperly .

Caution:Be sure to use the projector with an air-filter. If not,dust may get inside the projector causing fire andfailure.

• If any objects are blocking the air inlet or outlet grille, remove them.• Don't expose the air outlet grilles to hot air emitted from a heating appliance.• Check whether the filter is clogged with dirt or dust. ➔Clean the filter, if clogged. (See page 24.)

• After the STATUS indicator stops blinking, press the POWER button.• If you unplug the power cord while the fan is rotating, the lamp may not turn on about 1 minute

when you plug the power cord next time. • The lamp can't turn on again for 1 minute after it goes out.

• Press the POWER button several times.

• Replace the lamp. (The lamp is at the end of its life.)

• Attach the lamp cover on the bottom.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and contact your dealer.

• Cancel the AV mute by pressing the MUTE button.• Remove the lens cap.• The lamp sometimes takes about 1 minute to light up.• On rare occasion, the lamp fails to light up. In such cases, wait a few minutes and try to

light the lamp again.• If the projector was turned off before the lamp cooled down completely, the fans may start

rotating and the POWER button may not function when you plug the power cord into thewall outlet next time. Wait for the fans to stop and press the POWER button to turn on thelamp again.

• Set SCART INPUT in the FEATURE menu to OFF. (See page 17.)• Check that the filter is clean. (See page 24.)• Check that the lamp cover are closed.• Check that the cable connected to the external device isn't broken.• When an extension cord is being used, replace it with the supplied cable and check whether

Troubleshooting (continued)

Images aren't projected correctly.

Problem

Projected images areshaking.Projected images aredisplaced.

Projected images aredistorted.

Projected images aredark.

Projected images areblurred.

Afterimages persist onthe screen.

Red, blue, and greendots appear in projectedimages.Black dots appear inprojected images.

Fine streak patternappears in projectedimages.

Projected images (and/or audio) appear wavyand distorted.

Tint in projected imagesis incorrect.

Only the motion areasin the images suppliedfrom the computeraren't displayed.

Projected images areobscured.

Cause and solution

• Check that the cable connected to the external device isn't intermittent.• Connect the cable's plug with the external device's connector firmly.• Press the AUTO POSITION button.• Some computers output out-of-spec signals on rare occasion. Adjust the SIGNAL menu. (See

page 19.)

• Adjust the projector and the screen so that they are perpendicular to each other. (See page12.)

• Adjust BRIGHTNESS in the IMAGE menu. (See page 18.)• Replace the lamp. (See page 23.)

• Adjust the focus. (See page 13.)• Clean the lens.• Press the $ or % button on the remote control to eliminate flicker.• Adjust BRIGHTNESS and CONTRAST in the IMAGE menu. (See page 18.)• Adjust the projector and the screen so that they are perpendicular to each other. (See page

12.)

• This phenomenon is improved by keeping projecting an evenly bright image. (Such "imageburn-in" phenomenon where afterimages persist on the screen may occur if a stationaryimage is kept displayed on the screen for a long time.)

• This phenomenon is unique to LCD projector and isn't a product malfunction.(A small number of pixels always stay on or off, which are not malfunctions. More than99.99% of the pixels are effective.)

• It occurs because of interference with the screen and isn't a product malfunction. Changethe screen or readjust the focus of the projector.

• Connect the cable's plug with the external device's connector firmly.• Keep the projector away from equipment generating interfering radio waves.• When the keystone adjustment is carried out, the image may not be displayed correctly

because of the type of input signal. This isn’t a product malfunction. In this case, readjustthe keystone so that the amount of keystone correction is as small as possible.

• Check that COMPUTER INPUT in the SIGNAL menu is correctly set. (See page 17.)• Check that the cable connected to the external device isn't broken.

• This is caused by the computer being used. Contact the manufacturer of your computer.

• Match the output resolution of your computer with the resolution of the projector. For themethod to change the output resolution of the computer, contact the manufacturer of yourcomputer. (See page 31.)

• Some images and texts appear obscured during the keystone adjustment. In such cases, usethe projector without applying the keystone adjustment. (See page 12.)

OthersCause and solution• This air comes out as a result of cooling the inside of the projector. This isn't a product

malfunction.

• Check that the volume isn't set to low.

• The microcomputers inside the projector may be wrongly operating because of noise.➔ Press the POWER button to turn off the lamp and unplug the power cord from the wall

outlet. Wait about 10 minutes, plug the power cord in, and try again.

• This indication appears when the ambient temperature rises high. When the ambienttemperature stays high, the lamp goes out.➔ Eliminate any causes of the rise in the ambient temperature.

• This indication appears when the air inlet or outlet grille is blocked. When they are keptblocked, the lamp goes out.➔ Remove the objects blocking the air inlet or outlet grille. Clean the filter. (See page 24.)

• This mark appears when ineffective operation is carried out. This isn't a product malfunc-tion.

• Check that the batteries are loaded in the remote control or the batteries aren't weak. (Seepage 8.)

• Check that the remote control sensor isn't exposed to direct sunlight or fluorescent light.(See page 8.)

• Use the remote control within its operation range. (See page 8.)• Use the remote control at least 10 cm away from the projector.

• PASSWORD FUNCTION in the FEATURE menu has been set to MENU ACCESS to enablethe password lock.➔ Cancel the password lock or contact the person in charge of management of the projector.
