Precautions
Safety
• Check that the operating voltage of your
unit is identical with the voltage of your
local power supply.
• Should any liquid or solid object fall into
the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it
checked by qualified personnel before
operating it further.
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is
not to be used for several days.
• To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the
plug. Never pull the cord itself.
• The wall outlet should be near the unit and
easily accessible.
• The unit is not disconnected to the AC
power source (mains) as long as it is
connected to the wall outlet, even if the
unit itself has been turned off.
• Do not look into the lens while the lamp is
on.
• Do not place your hand or objects near the
ventilation holes. The air coming out is
hot.
• Be careful not to get your fingers caught in
the adjuster.
• Do not spread a cloth or paper under the
unit.
Illumination
• To obtain the best picture, the front of the
screen should not be exposed to direct
lighting or sunlight.
• Ceiling-mounted spot lighting is
recommended. Use a cover over
fluorescent lamps to avoid lowering the
contrast ratio.
• Cover any windows that face the screen
with opaque draperies.
• It is desirable to install the unit in a room
where floor and walls are not of lightreflecting material. If the floor and walls
are of reflecting material, it is
recommended that the carpet and wall
paper be changed to a dark color.
Preventing internal heat build-up
After you turn off the power with the ?/1
key, do not disconnect the unit from the wall
outlet while the cooling fan is still running.
Caution
The unit is equipped with ventilation holes
(intake) and ventilation holes (exhaust). Do
not block or place anything near these holes,
or internal heat build-up may occur, causing
picture degradation or damage to the
projector.
Cleaning
• To keep the cabinet looking new,
periodically clean it with a soft cloth.
Stubborn stains may be removed with a
cloth lightly dampened with a mild
detergent solution. Never use strong
solvents, such as thinner, benzene, or
abrasive cleansers, since these will
damage the cabinet.
• Avoid touching the lens. To remove dust
on the lens, use a soft dry cloth. Do not use
a damp cloth, detergent solution, or
thinner.
• Clean the filter at regular intervals.
LCD data projector
• This LCD data projector is manufactured
using high-precision technology. You may,
however, see tiny black points and/or
bright points (red, blue, or green) that
appear continuously on the LCD data
projector. This is a normal result of the
manufacturing process and does not
indicate a malfunction.
Precautions
5
Notes on Installation
and Usage
Hot and humid
Unsuitable Installation
Do not install the projector in the following
situations. Installation is these situations
or locations may cause a malfunction or
damage to the unit.
Poorly ventilated locations
• Avoid installing the unit in a location
where the temperature or humidity is very
high, or the temperature is very low.
• To avoid moisture condensation, do not
install the unit in a location where the
temperature may rise rapidly.
Locations subject to direct cool or
warm air from an air-conditioner
• Allow adequate air circulation to prevent
internal heat build-up. Do not place the
unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or
near materials (curtains, draperies) that
may block the ventilation holes. When
internal heat builds up due to blockage of
ventilation holes, the temperature sensor
will function, and the power will be turned
off automatically.
• Leave space of more than 30 cm (11 7/8
inches) around the unit.
• Be careful not to allow the ventilation
holes to inhale tiny objects such as pieces
of paper or clumps of dust.
Installing the projector in such a location
may cause a malfunction of the unit due to
moisture condensation or a rise in
temperature.
Near a heat or smoke sensor
Malfunction of the sensor may occur.
6
Notes on Installation and Usage
Very dusty, extremely smoky
locations
Avoid installing the unit in a very dusty or
extremely smoky environment. Otherwise,
the air filter will become obstructed, and this
may cause a malfunction of the unit or
damage it. Dust preventing the air passing
through the filter may cause a rise in the
internal temperature of the unit. Clean the
filter periodically.
Unsuitable Conditions
Do not use the projector under the following
conditions.
Standing the unit upright on one
side
Avoid using the unit standing upright on its
side. It may cause malfunction.
Tilting the unit to the right or left
Avoid tilting the unit to an angle of 15°, and
avoid installing the unit in any way other
than placing it on a level surface or
suspending from the ceiling. Such an
installation may cause color shading or
shorten the lamp life excessively.
Blocking the ventilation holes
Avoid using a thick-piled carpet or anything
that covers the ventilation holes (exhaust/
intake); otherwise, internal heat may build
up.
Placing a blocking object just in
front of the lens
Do not place any object just in front of the
lens that may block the light during
projection. Heat from the light may damage
the object. Use the PIC MUTING key on the
Remote Commander to cut off the picture.
Usage at High Altitude
When using the projector at an altitude of
1,500 m or higher, turn on “High
Altitude Mode” in the INSTALL SETTING
menu. Failing to set this mode when using
the projector at high altitudes could have
adverse effects, such as reducing
the reliability of certain components.
Note on carrying the projector
The unit is manufactured using highprecision technology. When transporting the
unit stored in the carrying case, do not drop
the unit or subject it to shock, as this may
cause damage. When storing the unit in the
carrying case, disconnect the AC power cord
and all other connecting cables or cards, and
store the supplied accessories in a pocket of
the carrying case.
Note on the screen
When using a screen with an uneven surface,
a striped pattern may rarely appear on the
screen depending on the distance between
the screen and the projector or the zooming
magnification settings used. This is not a
malfunction of the projector.

B Overview
Features
High brightness, high picture
quality
High brightness
Adopting Sony's unique optical system that
provides a high-efficiency optical system. It
allows the 165 W lamp to give a light output
of 2000 ANSI lumen.
High picture quality
VPL-ES3: Three super-high-aperture 0.63inch SVGA panels with approximately
480,000 effective pixels, produce a
resolution of 800 × 600 dots (horizontal/
vertical) for RGB input, and 500 horizontal
TV lines for video input.
VPL-EX3: Three super-high-aperture 0.63inch XGA panels with approximately
790,000 effective pixels, produce a
resolution of 1024 × 768 dots (horizontal/
vertical) for RGB input, and 750 horizontal
TV lines for video input.
Quiet presentation environment
Low fan noise reduces distraction allowing
you to run an optimum presentation even in
a quiet environment.
Short focal lens
The projection distance is very short,
approximately 2.3 m (7.5 feet), when
projecting an 80-inch image, which allows
projection on a larger screen even in a
limited space.
Security Functions
Security lock
This function makes it possible to prevent
projection of a picture on the screen unless
the required password is entered when the
projector is turned on.
Panel key lock
This function locks all the keys on the
control panel of the projector, allowing use
of the keys on the Remote Commander. This

prevents the projector from operating
incorrectly.

(The above-mentioned numerical values differ from the design values because the values in the
table include a tolerance.)
a’(N) = {(SS × 18.56/0.6299) + 3.3} × 1.03
a’(M) = {(SS × 22.61/0.6299) +3.3} × 0.97
x = b + (SS/0.6299 × 3.2 + 57.0)
The installation measurements and their calculation method for each lens are shown above.
The alphabetical letters in the charts and calculation methods indicate the following.
