About the screen
If the screen you are using is dirty, damaged or discolored, attractive
projections cannot be obtained. Do not apply any volatile substances to the
screen, and do not let it become dirty or damaged.
About the lamp
The lamp may need to be replaced earlier due to variables such as a
particular lampís characteristics, usage conditions and the installation
environment, especially when it is subjected to a continuous use for more
than 10 hours.
Before carrying out cleaning and maintenance, be
sure to disconnect the power cord plug from the
wall outlet.
Wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry cloth.
If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in water with a small amount
of neutral detergent in it, squeeze the cloth very well, and then wipe the
cabinet. After cleaning, wipe the cabinet dry with a dry cloth.
If using a chemically-treated cloth, read the instructions supplied with
the cloth before use.
Do not wipe the lens with a cloth that is dusty or which produces lint.
If any dust or lint gets onto the lens, such dust or lint will be magnified and
projected onto the screen. Use a blower to clean any dust and lint from the
lens surface, or use a soft cloth to wipe off any dust or lint.
Precautions on handling
Cautions regarding transportation
Be sure to attach the lens cover before transporting the projector.
The projection lens is extremely susceptible to vibration and shocks. When
carrying the projector, use the accessory carrying bag.
Cautions regarding setting-up
Observe the following at all times when setting up the projector.
Avoid setting up in places which are subject to vibration or shocks.
If the projector is set up in locations with strong vibration, such as near a
motor, or if it is installed inside a vehicle or on board a ship, the projector
may be subjected to vibration or shocks which can damage the internal parts
and cause malfunctions or accidents. Accordingly, set up the projector in a
place which is free from such vibrations and shocks.
Do not set up the projector near high-voltage power lines or near
motors.
The projector may be subject to electromagnetic interference if it is set up
near high-voltage power lines or motors.
If installing the projector to the ceiling, ask a qualified technician to
carry out all installation work.
If the projector is to be suspended from the ceiling, you will need to purchase
the separate installation kit (Model No.: ET-PK730). Furthermore, all
installation work should only be carried out by a qualified technician.
If using this projector at high elevations (above 1 400 m), set the FAN
CONTROL to HIGH. (Refer to page 41.)
Failure to observe this may result in malfunctions.
Notes on use
In order to get the best picture quality
If outside light or light from indoor lamps is shining onto the screen, the
images projected will not have good contrast. Draw curtains or blinds over
any windows and turn off any fluorescent lights near the screen to prevent
reflection.
Do not touch the surfaces of the lens with your bare hands.
If the surface of the lens becomes dirty from fingerprints or anything else, this
will be magnified and projected onto the screen. Moreover, when not using
the projector, retract the lens and then cover it with the accessory lens cover.

Notes on connections
B Read the instruction manual for each system component carefully before
connecting it.
B Turn off the power supply for all components before making any
connections.
B If the cables necessary for connecting a component to the system are not
included with the component or available as an option, you may need to
fashion a cable to suit the component concerned.
B If there is a lot of jitter in the video signal which is input from the video
source, the picture on the screen may flicker. In such cases, it will be
necessary to connect a TBC (time base corrector).
B The projector has a built-in speaker. However, you will need to connect a
separate audio system to the AUDIO OUT jack if your needs specify high
sound volumes. No sound will come out of the projector’s built-in speaker
while the AUDIO OUT jack is being used.
B It may not be possible to connect some types of computer. Refer to the list
of compatible signals on page 56.

Projection distances
Setting-up dimensions which are not given in the above table can be
calculated using the formulas below.
If the screen size (diagonal) is SD (m), then the following formula is used to
calculate the projection distance for the wide lens position (LW) and the
projection distance for the telephoto lens position (LT).
For 16:9 aspect ratios, the following formula can be used to calculate the
projection distance.
NOTE:
B The dimensions in the table above and the values obtained from the
above formulas may contain slight errors.
B If you use the projection distance for the 16:9 screen, the
4:3 projection image overflows the screen at the top and
bottom.
B If you set up the projector vertically, it may cause to
damage the projector.
B
It is recommended that you set up the projector in
a place that is tilted at less than
±30°. Setting up
the projector in places that are tilted at more than
±30° may cause malfunctions.

When the input signal is RGB, first
press the AUTO SETUP button to
initiate automatic positioning.
If the optimum setting is not
obtained when AUTO SETUP is
carried out, adjust by the following
procedure.
WHITE BALANCE R/G/B
(RGB only)
This is used to adjust the white areas of the
picture if they appear colorised. Press the I
button to make the selected color lighter.
Press the H button to make the selected color
stronger.
SIGNAL MODE
(RGB/YPBPR only)
This displays the type of signal which is
currently being projected.
Refer to the table on page 56 for details on
each type of signal.
Projecting sRGB-compatible
pictures
sRGB is an international color reproduction
standard (IEC61966-2-1) established by the
International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC). If you would like the colors in sRGB-
compatible pictures to be reproduced more
faithfully, make the following settings.
##
Press the
FF
or
GG
button to select
“PICTURE MODE”, and then use the
II
or
HH
button to select “NATURAL”.
$$
Press the STANDARD (STD) button on
the remote control unit.
%%
Press the
FF
or
GG
button to select
“COLOR TEMP.”, and then use the
II
or
HH
button to select “STANDARD”.
NOTE:
B sRGB is only enabled when RGB signals
are being input (when LAMP POWER has
been set to “HIGH”).

Basic Operation

S4:3
The size of the input signal is
compressed to 75% and projected.
(This is useful for projecting a
picture with a 4:3 aspect ratio onto a
16:9 screen.)
AUTO
(S-VIDEO only)
When an S1 video signal is input to
the S-VIDEO terminal, the aspect
ratio is changed automatically to
project a 16:9 picture.
4:3
The input signal is projected without
change.
16:9
The picture is compressed to a ratio
of 16:9 and projected.
ASPECT
This setting is only for an S-VIDEO/
VIDEO signal and a YPBPR signal in
525i (480i), 525p (480p) and 625i
format.

NOTE:
B
This projector is equipped with an
aspect ratio selection function.
However, if a mode which does not
match the aspect ratio of the input
signal is selected, it may affect the
quality of viewing of the original
picture. Keep this in mind when
selecting the aspect ratio.
B
If using this projector in places such
as cafes or hotels with the aim of
displaying programs for viewing for a
commercial purpose or for public
presentation, note that if the aspect
ratio (16:9) selection function is used
to change the aspect ratio of the
screen picture, you may be infringing
the rights of the original copyright
owner for that program under
copyright protection laws.
B
If a normal (4:3) picture which was
not originally intended for wide-
screen viewing is projected onto a
wide screen, distortion may occur
around the edges of the picture so
that part of the picture is no longer
visible. Such programs should be
viewed in 4:3 mode to give proper
consideration to the aims and
intentions of the original program’s
creator.
S1 video signals
B
S1 video signals are a type of video
signal with an aspect ratio of 16:9
which include a detector signal. This
detector signal is output by some
sources such as wide-vision video
decks. If the AUTO setting above is
selected, this projector will recognise
the detector signal and automatically
switch the aspect ratio to 16:9 in
order to project the picture.
RESIZING
This should normally be set to “ON”.
(This setting is only for signals
which have lower resolutions than
the LCD panels. Refer to page 56
for details.)
ON
The pixel resolution of the input
signal is converted to the same
resolution as the LCD panels before
being projected. For signals with
lower resolutions, gaps in the pixels
are automatically interpolated into
the picture before it is projected.
This may sometimes cause
problems with the quality of the
picture.
OFF
The picture signal is projected at its
original resolution, with no pixel
conversion. The projected picture
will be smaller than normal, so
adjust the zoom setting or move the
projector forwards or backwards to
adjust the picture size if necessary.
If set to “OFF”, some features, such
as D.ZOOM (digital zoom),
keystone distortion correction or
INDEX WINDOW will not function.
When a squeezed
signal is being input.
(The projected
image is contracted
horizontally)
When a 4:3 signal
is being input
