Important Information
LAMP HANDLING
PRECAUTIONS
This projector uses a high-pressure mercury lamp which must be handled carefully and properly as mentioned below.
• A lamp may explode with a loud sound or burn out due to a shock, scratch, or expiration of lifetime.
• The lamp life may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is not guarantee of the
same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period of time than other
similar lamps.
• A lamp gradually becomes darker with time of use.
• If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced (i.e., the LAMP REPLACE indicator blinks red rapidly),
chances of explosion become higher. Replace the lamp with a new one immediately.
• Always keep your face away from the exhaust vent so that you do not suffer from the gas and broken shards of the
lamp.
IF A LAMP EXPLODES
If a lamp explodes, the gas and broken shards may scatter inside the projector and they may come out
of the exhaust vent. The gas contains toxic mercury.
Open windows and doors for ventilation.
If you inhale the gas or the shards of the broken lamp enter your eyes or mouth, consult the doctor
immediately.
If a lamp explodes, its shards may scatter inside the projector. Ask the Canon service representative to
clean and check the inside of the projector and replace the lamp.
DISPOSAL OF WASTE LAMP
Dispose of the mercury lamp of the projector according to the local regulation just like the fluorescent
lamp.
iii
Important Information
For UK only: In UK, a BS approved power cord with moulded plug has a Black (five Amps) fuse installed for use with
this equipment. If a power cord is not supplied with this equipment please contact your supplier.
Important Safeguards
These safety instructions are to ensure the long life of your projector and to prevent fire and shock. Please read them
carefully and heed all warnings.

For best results, use your projector in a darkened room.
Place the projector on a flat, level surface in a dry area away from dust and moisture.
Do not place your projector in direct sunlight, near heaters or heat radiating appliances.
Exposure to direct sunlight, smoke or steam can harm internal components.
Handle your projector carefully. Dropping or jarring can damage internal components.
Do not place heavy objects on top of the projector.
If you wish to have the projector installed on the ceiling:
a. Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
b. The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure proper operation and reduce the
risk of bodily injury.
c. In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the installation must be in accordance with any local building codes.
d. Please consult your dealer for more information.
Do Not Use in the Following Environments
Do not install the projector in a humid or dusty place or a place where there is much oily
smoke or cigarette smoke. Optical parts such as a lens and mirror are stained, resulting in
poor picture.
Do not use the projector in a place where the temperature becomes very high or low.
Operating temperature: +5°C to +35°C Storage temperature: -10°C to +50°C
Place the projector in a horizontal position
The tilt angle of the projector should not exceed 10 degrees, nor should the projector be installed in any way other than
the desktop and ceiling mount, otherwise lamp life could decrease dramatically.
10˚
Fire and Shock Precautions
1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the build-up of heat inside
your projector. Allow at least 1 m (3.3') of space between your projector and a wall.
2. Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from falling into your projector.
Do not attempt to retrieve any objects that might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal objects such as
a wire or screwdriver into your projector. If something should fall into your projector, disconnect it immediately
and have the object removed by a qualified service personnel.
3. Do not place any liquids on top of your projector.
4. Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result.
5. Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the projector. The light being projected from the
lens is extensive, therefore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out of the lens, can
cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury to the eyes.
iv
Important Information
6. Do not cover the lens with the supplied lens cap or equivalent while the projector is on. Doing so can lead to
melting of the cap and possibly burning your hands due to the heat emitted from the light output.
7. Do not place any objects, which are easily affected by heat, in front of the projector lens or a projector exhaust
vent.
Doing so could lead to the object melting or getting your hands burned from the heat that is emitted from the
light output and exhaust.
8. The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-240V AC 50/60 Hz. Ensure that your power
supply fits this requirement before attempting to use your projector.
9. Handle the power cord carefully and avoid excessive bending.
A damaged cord can cause electric shock or fire.
10. If the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time, disconnect the plug from the power outlet.
11. Do not touch the power plug during a thunderstorm. Doing so can cause electrical shock or fire.
12. Do not handle the power plug with wet hands.
13. Remote Control Precautions
• Handle the remote control carefully.
• If the remote control gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.
• Avoid excessive heat and humidity.
• If you will not be using the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries.
• Do not place the batteries upside down.
• Do not use new and old batteries together, or use different types of batteries together.
• Dispose of used batteries according to your local regulations.
CAUTION
• Do not try to touch the ventilation outlet on the left side (when seen from the front) as it can become heated
while the projector is turned on.
• Do no use the tilt-foot for purposes other than originally intended. Misuses such as gripping the tilt-foot or
hanging on the wall can cause damage to the projector.
• When carrying the projector by the carrying handle, make sure the two screws that attach the carrying handle
to the projector cabinet are tight. (LV-7245/LV-7240 only)
Insufficient tightening of the two screws could result in the projector falling and causing injury.
• Do not send the projector in the soft carrying case by parcel delivery service or cargo shipment. The projector
inside the soft carrying case could be damaged.
• Select [High] in Fan mode if you continue to use the projector for consecutive days. (From the menu, select
[Advanced settings] → [Fan mode] → [High].) Fan noise increases noticeably in High mode.
• Do not unplug the power cord from the wall outlet under any one of the following circumstances.
Doing so can cause damage to the projector:
* While the Hour Glass icon appears.
* While the cooling fans are running. (The cooling fans continue to work for 30 seconds after the projector is
turned off).
* While the lamp is lighted.
Lamp Replacement
•
To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page 49.
•
Be sure to replace the lamp when the message “Replace with the new lamp.” appears. If you continue to use
the lamp after the lamp has reached the end of its usable life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass
may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury.
If this happens, contact your dealer for lamp replacement.
•
Allow a minimum of 30 seconds to elapse after turning off the projector. Then turn off the main power switch,
disconnect the power cord and allow 60 minutes to cool the projector before replacing the lamp.

control the projector via an optional RS-232C serial
cable (LV-CA34). If you are writing your own program,
typical PC control codes are on page 60.
You can use this jack to output sound from the currently selected source (COMPUTER, VIDEO or SVIDEO). Output sound level can be adjusted in accordance with the sound level of the internal speaker.
Note that this cannot be used as a headphone jack.
(When audio equipment is connected, the projector
speaker is disabled.)
When a cable mini-plug is inserted into this jack, both
the right and left audio signals are not mixed, but separate.

NOTE:
This projector can be hung from the ceiling (Ceiling mounted) with it turned up side down.
When a translucent screen is used, the projector can project an image from behind the screen (Rear).
When the projector is hung from the ceiling or projector projects an image from behind the screen, the image must be inverted
vertically or horizontally. See page 40.
• When hanging the projector from the ceiling, optional brackets (part No. LV-CL10) are required.
12
2. Installation and Connections
• Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your
projector so heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents
on the side or the front of the projector.
WARNING
* Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done
by a qualified technician. Contact your dealer for more
information.
* Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
• Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If the
projector falls to the ground, you can be injured and
the projector severely damaged.
• Do not use the projector where temperatures vary
greatly. The projector must be used at temperatures
between 41˚F (5˚C) and 95˚F (35˚C).
• Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or
smoke. This will harm the screen image.
Reflecting the Image
Using a mirror to reflect your projector's image enables
you to enjoy a much larger image. Contact your dealer if
you need a mirror system. If you're using a mirror system and your image is inverted, use the MENU and
buttons on your projector cabinet or
SELECT
your remote control to correct the orientation. See page
40.
13
2. Installation and Connections
� Making Connections
NOTE: When using with a notebook PC, be sure to connect between the projector and the notebook PC before turning on the
power to the notebook PC. In most cases signal cannot be output from RGB output unless the notebook PC is turned on after
connecting with the projector.
* If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer's screen-saver or power
management software.
Enabling the computer’s external display
Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector.
When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display.
Usually, the combination of the ‘Fn” key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on
or off. For more details, refer to your computer’s owner’s manual.

To connect to a PC or Macintosh, simply:
1. Turn off the power to your projector and computer.
2. Use the supplied VGA cable to connect your PC or Macintosh to the projector.
3. Connect the supplied power cord. See page 19.
4. Turn on the projector and the computer.
5. If the projector goes blank after a period of inactivity, it may be caused by a screen saver installed on the computer
you've connected to the projector.

14
2. Installation and Connections
NOTE: An image may not be displayed correctly when a Video or S-Video source is played back via a commercially available scan
converter.
This is because the projector will process a video signal as a computer signal at the default setting. In that case, do the following.
* When an image is displayed with the lower and upper black portion of the screen or a dark image is not displayed correctly:
Project an image to fill the screen and then press the AUTO PC button on the remote control or the projector cabinet.

7. Appendix
If there is no picture, or the picture is not displayed correctly.
•
Power on process for the projector and the PC.
Be sure to connect the RGB cable between the projector and the computer before turning on the computer.
There are some notebook PCs, which do not output signal unless there is a projector or monitor connected first.
NOTE: You can check the horizontal frequency of the current signal in the projector’s menu under Information. If it reads
“0kHz”, this means there is no signal being output from the computer. See page 45 or go to next step.
•
Enabling the computer’s external display.
Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector. When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display.
Usually, the combination of the ‘Fn” key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come
on or off. For more details, refer to your computer’s owner’s manual.
•
Non-standard signal output from the computer
If the output signal from a notebook PC is not an industry standard, the projected image may not be displayed
correctly. Should this happen, deactivate the notebook PC’s LCD screen when the projector display is in use.
Each notebook PC has a different way of deactivate/reactivate the local LCD screens as described in the
previous step. Refer to your computer’s documentation for detailed information.
•
Image displayed is incorrect when using a Macintosh
When using a Macintosh with the projector, set the DIPswitch of the Mac adapter (not supplied with the projector) according to your resolution. After setting, restart your Macintosh for the changes to take affect.
For setting display modes other than those supported by your Macintosh and the projector, changing the DIP
switch on a Mac adapter may bounce an image slightly or may display nothing. Should this happen, set the DIP
switch to the 13” fixed mode and then restart your Macintosh. After that, restore the DIP switches to a
displayable mode and then restart the Macintosh again.
NOTE: A Video Adapter cable manufactured by Apple Computer is needed for a PowerBook which does not have a mini D-Sub
15-pin connector.
•
Mirroring on a PowerBook
* When using the projector with a Macintosh PowerBook, output may not be set to 1024 x 768 unless “mirroring” is off on your PowerBook. Refer to owner’s manual supplied with your Macintosh computer for mirroring.
