■ Potential hazard of glass particles if

lamp ruptures. In case of lamp rupture,
contact your nearest Sharp Authorised
Projector Dealer or Service Centre for
replacement.
See “Replacing the Lamp” on pages 80-82.

■ For minimal servicing and to maintain high image qual-

ity, 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. As long as the
projector is regularly cleaned, use in these environ-
ments will not reduce the overall operation life of the
unit. Internal cleaning should only be performed by an
Sharp Authorised Projector Dealer or Service Centre.

■ Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or

room light. Light falling directly on the screen washes
out the colours, making viewing difficult. Close the cur-
tains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a
sunny or bright room.

■ Placement should be within ±5 degrees.

■ Take care with the lens so as not to hit or damage the

surface of the lens.

■ Watching the screen for long hours continuously will

make your eyes tired. Be sure to occasionally rest your
eyes.

■ The operating temperature for the projector is from +5°C

to +35°C.

■ The storage temperature for the projector is from

–20°C to +60°C.

■ Allow at least 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 protection cir-

cuit will automatically put the projector into the standby
mode. This does not indicate a malfunction. Remove
the projector power cord from the wall outlet and wait
at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where the in-
take 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.

■ When transporting the projector, be sure not to subject

it to hard impact and/or vibration, as this can result in
damage. Take extra caution with the lens. Before mov-
ing the projector, be sure to unplug the power cord from
the wall outlet, and disconnect any other cables con-
nected to it.

■ When connecting a computer or other audio-visual

equipment to the projector, make the connections AF-
TER unplugging the power cord of the projector from
the AC outlet and turning off the equipment to be con-
nected.

■ Please read the operation manuals of the projector and

the equipment to be connected for instructions on how
to make the connections.

■ If the projector starts to overheat

due to setup problems or blockage
of the air vents, “

” and

“

” will blink in the lower left

corner of the picture. If the tem-
perature continues to rise, the lamp will turn off, the
temperature warning indicator on the projector will blink,
and after a 90-second cooling-off period the projector
will enter the standby mode. Refer to “Maintenance In-
dicators” on page 78 for details.

• The cooling fan regulates the internal temperature, and

its performance is automatically controlled. The sound
of the fan may change during projector operation due
to changes in the fan speed. This does not indicate
malfunction.

• Do not unplug the power cord during projection or cool-

ing fan operation. This can create damage due to the
rise in internal temperature, as the cooling fan also
stops.
