For added protection for this product during a
lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from

■ Potential hazard of glass par-

ticles if lamp ruptures. In
case of lamp rupture, contact
your nearest Sharp Autho-
rized Projector Dealer or Ser-
vice Center for replacement.
See “Replacing the Lamp” on
page 

■ 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 of-
ten. 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.

■ 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.

■ Place the projector on a level site within the

adjustment range (8 degrees) of the adjust-
ment foot.

■ 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.

■ When placing the projector in a high position,

ensure that it is secured carefully to avoid per-
sonal injury caused by the projector falling
down.

■ Protect the lens so as not to hit or damage

the surface of the lens.

■ Continuously watching the screen for long

hours will cause eye strain. Be sure to occa-
sionally rest your eyes.

■ 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).

■ Allow at least 11 

13

/

16

 inches (30 cm) of space

between the exhaust vent and the nearest
wall or obstruction.

■ Be sure that the intake vent and the exhaust

vent are not obstructed.

■ If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro-

tection circuit will automatically put the pro-
jector into standby mode to prevent overheat
damage. This does not indicate a malfunc-
tion. (See pages 

.) Remove the pro-

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.
