Troubleshooting

Before asking to have the projector repaired, try to diagnose the problem, following the instructions below.

Symptom

The power is not turned on.

No image.

On-screen display does not appear.

The aspect ratio of the display is not right/the image is displayed smaller /a portion of image does not appear.

The image is a trapezoid.

Remedy Page

Check if the AC power cord is firmly connected.

When the “Panel Key Lock” is set to “On,” you cannot turn on the projector using the ?/1 key on the projector.

If the lamp or lamp cover is not attached securely, the projector cannot be turned on.

If the air filter or air filter cover is not attached securely, the projector cannot be turned on.

Check if the connecting cable is connected to external equipment firmly.

Check if the computer signal is set for output to an external monitor. If you set your computer, such as a notebook computer, to output the signal to both your computer’s display and an external monitor, the picture of the external monitor may not appear properly. Set your computer to output the signal to only an external monitor.

Check if the input source is correctly selected.

Check if the picture is muted.

The on-screen display does not appear when “Status” in the

MENU SETTING menu is set to “Off.”

Set “Aspect” manually.

The image is dark/too bright.

The images become trapezoidal because of the projection angle. In such a case, you can correct the trapezoidal distortion, using a Keystone feature.

When the “V Keystone” is set to “Manual,” the keystone feature does not work automatically. Set “V Keystone” to

“Auto” or “Manual” to set manually.

When the projector is installed on an uneven surface, the feature may not work properly. In this case, select “Manual” to set “V Keystone” manually.

The settings for “Brightness,” “Contrast,” and “Lamp Mode” affect brightness of the image. Check if the value is appropriate.

The image will be dark when the lamp is burnt out. Check

“Lamp Timer,” and replace the lamp with a new one if necessary.

Troubleshooting

Symptom Remedy

The image is not clear.

Check if the projector is in focus.

The picture will not be clear if condensation has accumulated on the lens. In such a case, let the projector sit for about two hours with the power on.

The image is noisy.

Check if the connecting cable is connected to external equipment properly.

No sound.

Check that the connecting cables between the projector and external video or audio equipment are securely connected.

Check if the output setting of connected external audio equipment is set to output the audio signal from the projector.

The Remote

Commander does not work.

The fan is noisy.

Check if the connecting cable is connected to external equipment firmly.

Audio is not output if audio muting is activated.

Check if “Volume” is not set to minimum.

Check that the batteries are installed correctly.

Check that the batteries are not exhausted.

The sound from the fan is often greater than normal to cool the lamp, etc. in the following cases.

• “Lamp Mode” is set to “High.”

• “High Altitude Mode” is set to “On.”

• The unit is used in the location where the temperature is high.

If the ventilation holes are blocked, the internal temperature of the projector rises and the fan noise becomes larger.

Replacing the Lamp

Replace the lamp with a new one if a message displayed on the projected image or the LAMP/

COVER indicator notifies you to replace the lamp (pages 30, 31).

Use an LMP-E211 projector lamp (not supplied) for replacement.

1

Turn off the projector, and disconnect the AC power cord from a wall outlet.

Caution

• The lamp remains hot after the projector is turned off. If you touch the lamp, you may

burn your finger. When you replace the lamp, wait for at least an hour after turning off the projector for the lamp to cool sufficiently.

• Do not allow any metallic or inflammable objects into the lamp replacement slot after removing the lamp, otherwise it may cause electrical shock or fire. Do not put your hands into the slot.

If the lamp breaks, contact qualified

Sony personnel. Do not replace the lamp

yourself.

• When removing the lamp, be sure to pull it out straight, by holding the designated location. If you touch a part of the lamp other than the designated location, you may be burned or injured. If you pull out the lamp while the projector is tilted, the pieces may scatter if the lamp breaks any may cause injury.

3

When the lamp has cooled sufficiently, open the lamp cover by loosening 1 screw.

Loosen the 2 screws on the lamp then pull out the lamp by its grab.
