* There is no guarantee of the lens performance when the projection distance exceeds 8.0 m (26.2 feet).

• The value for L (distance to screen) varies slightly depending on the 

zoom lens characteristics.

• At the shortest projection distance, the zoom lens characteristics may 

cause slight image distortion.

Do not install the projector in locations that are subject to excessive water, humidity, steam or oily smoke. Doing so may result in fire, malfunction or electric shock.

1 The projector uses a high-voltage mercury lamp under high internal pressure. This lamp may break, emitting 

a popping sound, or fail to illuminate, due to impact or extended use.

2 The high-wattage lamp becomes very hot during operation. Please observe the following precautions:
  • Never place objects on top of the projector while it is in operation.  
  • Make sure there is an unobstructed space of 1,000 mm (39-3/8 in) or more around the projector’s exhaust 

openings. 

  • If stacking projector units, care must be taken to provide the recommended space between units. These 

space requirements also apply to installation where only one projector unit is operating at one time and the 
other unit is used as a backup.  

  • If the projector is placed in a box or enclosure, the temperature of the air surrounding the projector 

must match the operating temperature listed in the specifications table during use. Also, make sure the 
projector’s intake and exhaust openings are not blocked.  Ensure there is sufficient ventilation to prevent 
hot air from the exhaust openings being recirculated into the intake opening.

3 The lamp replacement cycle duration becomes shorter if the projector is operated repeatedly for short 

periods.

  • The lamp replacement cycle varies greatly depending on individual lamp characteristics and usage 

conditions.

  • The brightness of the lamp will gradually decrease with use.
4 Due to natural characteristics of lamps, screen brightness may fluctuate. This is not an indication of faulty lamp 

performance.
