Disposal
To dispose of the product, ask your local authorities or dealer for correct methods of disposal. Also, dispose of the product without disassembling.
Cautions on use
rTo get a good picture quality
In order to view a beautiful image in higher contrast, prepare an appropriate environment. Draw curtains or blinds over windows and turn off any lights near the screen to prevent outside light or light from indoor lamps from shining onto the screen.
rDo not touch the surface of the projection lens with your bare hands.
If the surface of the projection lens becomes dirty from fingerprints or anything else, this will be magnified and projected onto the screen. Attach the lens cover supplied with the projector or with the optional projection lens to the projector when you do not use the projector.
rDLP chips
f The DLP chips are precision-made. Note that in rare cases, pixels of high precision could be missing or always lit. Such a phenomenon does not indicate malfunction.
f Directing a high-power laser beam onto the projection lens surface can damage the DLP chips.
rDo not move the projector or subject it to vibration or impact while it is operating.
Doing so may shorten the life of the built-in motor.
rLight source
The light source of the projector uses lasers, and has the following characteristics. f Depending on the operating environment temperature, the luminance of the light source will decrease.
The higher the temperature becomes, the more the luminance of the light source decreases. f Depending on the operating environment temperature, the luminance of the light source will decrease.
When using the projector at an altitude lower than 2 700 m (8 858′) above sea level, and the operating environment temperature becomes 35 °C (95 °F) or higher, the luminance of the light source may decrease. When using the projector at an altitude between 2 700 m (8 858′) and 4 200 m (13 780′), and the operating environment temperature becomes 25 °C (77 °F) or higher, the luminance of the light source may decrease. The higher the temperature becomes, the more the luminance of the light source decreases. f The luminance of the light source will decrease by duration of usage. The time until when the luminance of the light source decreases by half differs depending on the setting of the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu [OPERATION SETTING] [OPERATING MODE]. The estimated time until when the luminance of the light source decreases by half is as follows.
