signal amplifier along with the extension cord.
Images are not displayed correctly.
Problem Solution
Projected images are
shaking.
Projected images are
displaced.

Afterimages persist on
the screen.
• This phenomenon is improved by keeping projecting an evenly bright image. (Such
“image burn-in” phenomenon where afterimages persist on the screen may occur if a
stationary image is kept displayed on the screen for a long time.)
Red, blue, and
green dots appear in
projected images.
Black dots appear in
projected images.
• This phenomenon is unique to LCD projector and isn’t a product malfunction.
(A small number of pixels always stay on or off, which are not malfunctions. More than
99.99%ofthepixelsareeffective.)
Fine streaks are seen
on projected images.
• Thisisduetointerferencewiththescreensurfaceandisnotamalfunction.Replace
the screen or displace the focus a little.
• Verticalorhorizontalstreaknoisemayappearontheprojectedimage,dependingon
the type of the DVD player or game console you use. In such a case, you can reduce
such streak noise by enabling the LPF.
Projected images
become wavy.
• Connecttheplugsofthecablestoexternaldevicessecurely.
• Keeptheprojectorawayfromdevicesthatemitinterferingradiowaves.
• When the keystone adjustment is carried out, the image may not be displayed correctly
depending on the type of input signal. This isn’t a product malfunction. In this case,
readjust the keystone so that the amount of keystone correction is as small as possible.
