See “Replacing the Projection Lamp” on pages 47 and 48.
Cautions 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 lens must be
cleaned more often. Periodically the projector should be cleaned internally. As
long as the projector is properly maintained in this manner, use in these
environments will not reduce the overall operation life. Please note that all internal
cleaning must be performed by a Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service
Center.
• Do not expose the projector to extreme heat or cold.

Operating temperature: 41°F to 95°F (
Ⳮ5°C to Ⳮ35°C)
Storage temperature: 14°F to 140°F (
ⳮ10°C to Ⳮ60°C)
• The mark shown on the left calls the user’s attention to locations on the projector
that emit intense heat during operation.
• The exhaust vent, the lamp cage cover and adjacent areas may be extremely
hot during projector operation. To prevent injury, do not touch these areas until
they have sufficiently cooled.
they have sufficiently cooled.
• Allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between the cooling fan (exhaust
vent) and the nearest wall or obstruction.
• If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a protection device will automatically
turn off the projector lamp. This does not indicate a malfunction. Remove the
projector power cord from the wall outlet and wait at least 10 minutes. Then
reconnect the power cord and restart the projector. This will return the projector
to normal operating condition.
