IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Ensure that you read the following safeguards when setting up your projector.
Caution concerning the lamp unit
■ Potential hazard of glass particles if lamp ruptures. In case of lamp rupture, contact your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center for replacement.
See “Regarding the Lamp” on
CAUTION
PRECAUCIÓN
PRÉCAUTION
Warning about placing the projector in a high position
■ When placing the projector in a high position, make certain it is carefully secured to avoid personal injury caused by the projector falling down.
Do not subject the projector to hard impact and/or vibration.
■ Take care with the lens so as not to hit or damage the surface of the lens.
Caution concerning the setup of the projector
■ For minimal servicing and to maintain high image quality, SHARP recommends that this projector be installed in an area free from humidity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the projector is subjected to these environments, the vents and lens must be cleaned more often. As long as the projector is regularly cleaned, use in these environments will not reduce the overall operation life of the unit.
Internal cleaning should only be performed by a Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or
Service Center.
Do not set up the projector in places exposed to direct sunlight or bright light.
■ Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly on the screen washes out the colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room.
Rest your eyes occasionally.
■ Continuously watching the screen for long hours will cause eye strain. Take regular breaks to rest your eyes.
Avoid locations with extremes of temperature.
■ The operating temperature of the projector is from 41°F to 95°F (+5°C to +35°C).
■ The storage temperature of the projector is from –4°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C).
The projector may be safely tilted to a maximum angle of 9 degrees.
■ Placement should be within ±9 degrees of horizontal.
Do not block the intake and exhaust vents.
■ Allow at least 7 7 /
8
inches (20 cm) of space between the exhaust vent and the nearest wall or obstruction.
■ Ensure that the intake vent and the exhaust vent are not obstructed.
■ If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a protection circuit will automatically put the projector into standby mode to prevent overheat damage. This does not indicate a malfunc-
jector power cord from the wall outlet and wait at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked, plug the power cord back in and turn on the projector. This will return the projector to the normal operating condition.
When using the projector in high-altitude areas such as mountains (at altitudes of approximately 1,500 meters (4,900 feet) or more)
■ When you use the projector in high-altitude areas with thin air, set “Fan Mode” to “High”.
Neglecting this can affect the longevity of the optical system.
-8
Caution regarding usage of the projector
■ When using the projector, take care not to subject it to hard impact and/or vibration, as this can result in damage. Take extra care with the lens. If you are not to use the projector for a long time, make certain you unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, and disconnect any other cables connected to it.
■ Do not carry the projector by holding the lens.
■ When storing the projector, ensure you attach
the lens cap to the projector. (See page 12 .)
■ Do not expose the storage case or projector to direct sunlight or near heat sources. The storage case or projector may change color or become deformed.
Other connected equipment
■ When connecting a computer or other audiovisual equipment to the projector, make the connections AFTER unplugging the power cord of the projector from the AC outlet and turning off the equipment to be connected.
■ Please read the operation manuals of the projector and the equipment to be connected for instructions on how to make the connections.
Using the projector in other countries
■ The power supply voltage and the shape of the plug may vary depending on the region or country you are using the projector in.
When using the projector overseas, make sure you use an appropriate power cord for the country you are in.
Temperature monitor function
■ If the projector starts to overheat due to setup problems or blockage of the air vents,
“ ” and “ ” will illuminate in the lower left corner of the picture. If the temperature continues to rise, the lamp will turn off, the temperature warning indicator on the projector will blink, and after a 90-second cooling-off period the projector will enter the standby mode. Refer to “Maintenance Indicators” on
for details.
Info
• The cooling fan regulates the internal temperature, and its performance is automatically controlled. The sound of the fan may change during projector operation due to changes in the fan speed. This does not indicate malfunction.

Hg LAMP CONTAINS MERCURY For State Lamp Disposal Information www.lamprecycle.org or 1-800-BE-SHARP U.S.A. ONLY
Caution Concerning the Lamp
■ This projector utilizes a pressurized mercury lamp. A loud sound may indicate lamp failure. Lamp failure can be attributed to numerous sources such as: excessive shock, improper cooling, surface scratches or deterioration of the lamp due to a lapse of usage time.
The period of time up to failure largely varies depending on the individual lamp and/or the condition and the frequency of use. It is important to note that failure can often result in the bulb cracking.
■ When the lamp replacement indicator and on-screen display icon are illuminated, it is recommended that the lamp be replaced with a new one immediately, even if the lamp appears to be operating normally.
■ Should the lamp break, the glass particles may spread inside the lamp cage or gas contained in the lamp may be vented into the room from the exhaust vent. Because the gas in this lamp includes mercury, ventilate the room well if the lamp breaks and avoid all exposure to the released gas. In case of exposure to the gas, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
■ Should the lamp break, there is also a possibility that glass particles may spread inside of the projector. In such a case, it is recommended you contact your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector
Dealer or Service Center to assure safe operation.
Replacing the Lamp
Caution
• Do not remove the lamp unit from the projector right after use. The lamp will be very hot and may cause burn or injury.

■ Carefully change the lamp by following the instructions described in this section. *If you wish, you may have the lamp replaced at your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center.
* If the new lamp does not illuminate after replacement, take your projector to the nearest Sharp Authorized
Projector Dealer or Service Center for repair.

Note
• This projector may not be able to display images from notebook computers in simultaneous (CRT/LCD) mode. Should this occur, turn off the LCD display on the notebook computer and output the display data in “CRT only” mode. Details on how to change display modes can be found in your notebook computer’s operation manual.
• When this projector receives 640 × 350 VESA format VGA signals, “640 × 400” appears on the screen.
• When projecting the RGB interlace signal using COMPUTER/COMPONENT 1, 2 or DVI-D with “Signal Type” set to “Auto” or “RGB”, the image may not be projected as desired. In this case, use either Video or S-Video.
• Depending on the computer you are using, the output signal may not be faithful to the “Screen resolution” adjustment. Check the settings of the computer’s signal output. If the settings cannot be changed, it is recommended that the resolution be set to the one that corresponds to “1280 × 800”.

Troubleshooting
Problem
No picture and no sound or projector does not start.
Sound is heard but no picture appears.
Check
• Projector power cord is not plugged into the wall outlet.
• Power to the external connected devices is off.
• The selected input mode is wrong.
• The AV MUTE function is working.
• Cables incorrectly connected to the rear panel of the projector.
• Remote control batteries have run out.
• External output has not been set when connecting notebook computer.
• The filter cover, lamp unit cover or lamp housing cover is not installed correctly.
• If the connected DVI digital equipment is turned on before the
“DVI-D” input mode is selected on the projector, the image may not be projected properly or may not be displayed at all. Ensure that the appropriate input mode has been selected on the projector before you turn on the connected equipment.
• Cables incorrectly connected to the rear panel of the projector.
• “Bright” is set to minimum position.
• Depending on the computer you are using, an image may not be projected unless the signal output setting of the computer is switched to the external output. Refer to the computer’s operation manual for how to switch its signal output settings.
• Image adjustments are incorrectly set.
(Video, S-Video Input only)
• Video input system is incorrectly set.
(COMPUTER/COMPONENT 1, 2, DVI-D only)
• Input signal type (RGB/Component) is incorrectly set.
Color is faded or poor.
Picture is blurred; noise appears.
• Adjust the focus.
• The projection distance exceeds the focus range.
• There is fog on the lens. If the projector is carried from a cold room into a warm room, or if it is suddenly heated, condensation may form on the surface of the lens and the image will become blurred. Please set up the projector at least one hour before it is to be used. If condensation should form, remove the power cord from the wall outlet and wait for it to clear.
(Computer Input only)
• Perform “SIG-ADJ” Adjustments. (“Clock” Adjustment)
• Perform “SIG-ADJ” Adjustments. (“Phase” Adjustment)
• Noise may appear depending on the computer.
• Cables incorrectly connected to the rear panel of the projector.
• Volume is set to minimum.
• When the projector is connected to an external device and the volume is set to minimum, the sound is not output even if you turn up the volume of the external device.
• “Speaker” is set to “Off”.
Picture appears but no sound is heard.
Data image is not centered.
• Make the necessary adjustments of each item in the “SIG-ADJ” menu.
• Depending on the computer you are using, the output resolution signal may be different from the one you have set. For details, refer to the operation manual of the computer.

Problem
An unusual sound is occasionally heard from the cabinet.
Maintenance indicator illuminates or blinks in red.
The projector cannot be turned on or put into the standby mode using the
STANDBY/ON button on the projector.
Picture is green with component input signals
(COMPUTER/
COMPONENT 1, 2, DVI-D).
Picture is pink (no green) with RGB input signals
(COMPUTER/
