Maintenance Cleaning the projector ■ Ensure that you have unplugged the power cord before cleaning the projector. ■ The cabinet as well as the operation panel is made of plastic. Avoid using benzene or thinner, as these can damage the finish on the cabinet. ■ Do not use volatile agents such as insecticides on the projector. Do not attach rubber or plastic items to the projector for long periods. The effects of some of the agents in the plastic may cause damage to the quality or finish of the projector.
Maintenance Indicators ■ The warning lights (power indicator, lamp indicator and temperature warning indicator) on the projector indicate problems inside the projector. ■ If a problem occurs, either the temperature warning indicator or the lamp indicator will illuminate red, and the projector will enter Standby mode. After the projector has entered Standby mode, follow the procedures given below.
Maintenance indicator Normal Temperature warning indicator Lamp indicator Power indicator Off Green on (Green blinks when the lamp is warming up.) Green on/ Red on Green blinks (Cooling) Abnormal Problem Cause Possible Solution • Temperatures around the projector are high. • Blocked air intake • Use the projector in an area with a temperature of lower than 95°F (+35ºC). • Relocate the projector to an area with proper ventilation. (See page 8.
Regarding the Lamp Lamp ■ It is recommended that the lamp (sold separately) be replaced when the remaining lamp life becomes 5% or less, or when you notice a significant deterioration in the picture and color quality.
