Ensure that you read the following safeguards when
setting up your projector.
Caution concerning the lamp unit
■ Potential hazard of glass
particles if lamp ruptures.
Warning about placing the projector in
a high position
■ When placing the projector in a high posi-
tion, ensure to secure it carefully to avoid per-
sonal injury caused by the projector falling
down.
In case of lamp rupture,
contact your nearest EIKI
Authorized Projector
Dealer or Service Center
CAUTION
PRECAUCION
PRECAUTION
AH-35001
for a replacement.
See “Replacing the Lamp” on page 66.
Do not subject the projector to hard im-
pact and/or vibration.
■ Take care with the lens so as not to hit or
damage the surface of the lens.
Caution concerning the setup of the pro-
jector
■ For minimal servicing and to maintain high
image quality, EIKI recommends that this pro-
jector be installed in an area free from hu-
midity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the
projector is subjected to these environments,
the vents and lens must be cleaned more
often. As long as the projector is regularly
cleaned, use in these environments will not
reduce the overall operation life of the unit.
Internal cleaning should only be performed
by a EIKI Authorized Projector Dealer or Ser-
vice Center.
Rest your eyes occasionally.
■ Continuously watching the screen for long
hours will cause eye strain. Ensure to occa-
sionally rest your eyes.
Avoid locations with extremes of tem-
perature.
■ The operating temperature of the projector
is from 41°F to 104°F (+5°C to +40°C).
■ The storage temperature of the projector is
from –4°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C).
Do not block the intake and exhaust
vents.
Do not set up the projector in places ex-
posed to direct sunlight or bright light.
■ Position the screen so that it is not in direct
sunlight or room light. Light falling directly on
the screen washes out the colors, making
viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim
the lights when setting up the screen in a
sunny or bright room.
7
■ Allow at least 7 /8 inches (20 cm) of space
between the exhaust vent and the nearest
wall or obstruction.
■ Ensure that the intake vent and the exhaust
vent are not obstructed.
■ If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro-
tection circuit will automatically put the pro-
jector into standby mode to prevent overheat
damage. This does not indicate a malfunc-
tion (See pages 64 and 65.).Remove the pro-
jector power cord from the wall outlet and wait
at least 10 minutes.Place the projector where
the intake 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.
The projector may be safely tilted to a
maximum angle of 12 degrees.
■ Placement should be within 12 degrees of
horizontal.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Caution regarding usage of the projector
■ When using the projector, ensure not to sub-
ject it to hard impact and/or vibration, as this
can result in damage. Take extra care with the
lens. If you are not to use the projector for a
long time, ensure to unplug the power cord from
the wall outlet, and disconnect any other cables
connected to it.
Info
• The cooling fan regulates the internal tem-
perature, and its performance is automati-
cally 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 use the projector by holding the lens.
■ When storing the projector, ensure to attach
the lens cap to the projector. (See page 11.)
■ Do not expose the storage case or projector
to direct sunlight or near heat sources. The
storage case or projector may change color
or become deformed.
• Do not unplug the power cord during pro-
jection or cooling fan operation. This can
cause damage due to rise in internal tem-
perature, as the cooling fan also stops.
Other connected equipment
■ When connecting a computer or other audio-
visual equipment to the projector, make the
connections AFTER unplugging the power
cord of the projector from the AC outlet and
turning off the equipment to be connected.
■ Please read the operation manuals of the pro-
jector and the equipment to be connected for
instructions on how to make the connections.
Using the projector in other countries
■ The power supply voltage and the shape of
the plug may vary depending on the region
or country you are using the projector in.
When using the projector overseas, ensure
to use an appropriate power cord for the coun-
try you are in.
Temperature monitor function
■
If the projector starts to over-
heat due to setup problems
or blockage of the air vents,
“
” and “
” will illumi-
nate in the lower left corner of the picture. If the
temperature continues to rise, the lamp will turn
off, the temperature warning indicator on the
projector will blink, and after a 90-second cool-
ing-off period the projector will enter the standby
mode. Refer to “Maintenance Indicators” on
page 64 for details.

Setting up the Projector
Setting up the Projector
Position the projector perpendicular to the screen with the projector’s feet flat and level to achieve an
optimal image.
Note
• The projector lens should be centered in the middle of the screen. If the horizontal line passing through
the lens center is not perpendicular to the screen, the image will be distorted, making viewing difficult.
• For an optimal image, position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling
directly on the screen washes out the colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights
when setting up the projector in a sunny or bright room.
Standard Setup (Front Projection)
■ Place the projector at the required distance from the screen according to the desired picture size. (For
details, refer to page 2 of the “SETUP GUIDE” contained on the supplied CD-ROM.)

Regarding the Lamp
Lamp
■ It is recommended that the lamp unit (optional: AH-35001) be replaced when the remaining lamp life
becomes 5% or less, or when you notice a significant deterioration in the picture and color quality.
The lamp life (percentage) can be checked with the on-screen display. See page 50.
■ Purchase a replacement lamp unit of type AH-35001 from your place of purchase, nearest EIKI Au-
thorized Dealer or Service Center.
Caution Concerning the Lamp
■ This projector utilizes a pressurized mercury lamp. A loud sound may indicate lamp failure. Lamp
failure can be attributed to numerous sources such as: excessive shock, improper cooling, surface
scratches or deterioration of the lamp due to a lapse of usage time.
The period of time up to failure largely varies depending on the individual lamp and/or the condition
and the frequency of use. It is important to note that failure can often result in the bulb cracking.
■ When the lamp replacement indicator and on-screen display icon are illuminated, it is recommended
that the lamp be replaced with a new one immediately, even if the lamp appears to be operating
normally.
■ Should the lamp break, the glass particles may spread inside the lamp cage or gas contained in the
lamp may be vented into the room from the exhaust vent. Because the gas in this lamp includes
mercury, ventilate the room well if the lamp breaks and avoid all exposure to the released gas. In
case of exposure to the gas, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
■ Should the lamp break, there is also a possibility that glass particles may spread inside of the
projector. In such a case, it is recommended you contact your nearest EIKI Authorized Dealer or
Service Center to assure safe operation.
Replacing the Lamp
Caution
• Do not remove the lamp unit from the projector right after use.The lamp will be very hot and may cause burn
or injury.
• Wait at least one hour after the power cord is disconnected to allow the surface of the lamp unit to fully cool
before removing the lamp unit.
■ Carefully change the lamp by following the instructions described in this section. *If you wish, you
may have the lamp replaced at your nearest EIKI Authorized Dealer or Service Center.
* If the new lamp does not illuminate after replacement, take your projector to the nearest EIKI Authorized
Dealer or Service Center for repair.

Note
• This projector may not be able to display images from notebook computers in simultaneous (CRT/LCD)
mode. Should this occur, turn off the LCD display on the notebook computer and output the display data
in “CRT only” mode. Details on how to change display modes can be found in your notebook computer’s
operation manual.
• When this projector receives 640 × 350 VESA format VGA signals, “640 × 400” appears on the screen.
• When projecting the RGB interlace signal using INPUT 1/2 with “Signal Type” set to “Auto” or “RGB”, the
image may not be projected as desired. In this case, select either INPUT 3 (Video) or INPUT 4 (S-Video).

Glossary
Aspect Ratio
Phase
Width and height ratio of an image. The normal
aspect ratio of a computer and video image is 4:3.
There are also wide images with an aspect ratio
of 16:9 and 21:9.
Phase shift is a timing shift between isomorphic
signals with the same resolution.When phase level
is incorrect, the projected image typically displays
horizontal flicker.
Auto Sync
Picture Mode
Optimizes projected computer images by auto-
matically adjusting certain characteristics.
Image quality enhancement function that offers a
richer image by brightening the darker portions
of the image without altering the brightness of the
brighter portions. You can select four different
modes: STANDARD, PRESENTATION, CINEMA
and GAME.
Background
Initial setting image projected when no signal is
being output.
Border
Resize
Projects a 4:3 image fully within a 16:9 screen by
keeping the aspect ratio at 4:3.
Allows you to modify or customize the picture dis-
play mode to enhance the input image. You can
select four different modes: NORMAL, DOT BY
DOT, BORDER and STRETCH.
Clock
Clock adjustment is used to adjust vertical noise
when clock level is incorrect.
sRGB
CLR Temp (Color temperature)
An international standard of color reproduction
regulated by the IEC (International Electrotechnical
Commission). As the fixed color area has been
decided by the IEC, the color changes according
to DLP features, so that the images are displayed
in a natural tint based on an original image, when
“sRGB” is set to “ON”.
Function that can be used to adjust the color tem-
perature to suit the type of image input to the pro-
jector. Decrease the color temperature to create
warmer, reddish images for natural flesh tones,
or increase to create cooler, bluish images for a
brighter picture.
Dot by dot
Stretch
Mode that projects images in their native resolution.
Mode that stretches the 4:3 image horizontally to
display it fully on a 16:9 screen.
Intelligent compression
High quality resizing of lower and higher resolu-
tion images to fit the projector’s native resolution.
System Lock
If the “Keycode” set in the projector is not cor-
rectly entered, the projector will not operate even
if signals are entered.
Keystone Correction
Function to digitally correct a distorted image
when the projector is set up at an angle, smooth-
ens out jaggies on keystone images and com-
presses the image not only horizontally but verti-
cally keeping the 4:3 aspect ratio.
Password
A password is set so that changes cannot be made
in the “Options2” setting.
