IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
Save Original Packing Materials The original shipping carton and packing materials will come in handy if you ever have to ship your LCD projector. For maximum protection, repack the set as it was originally packed at the factory.

CAUTION Label

WARNING Label

Moisture Condensation
Never operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a warm location. When the unit is exposed to such a change in temperature, moisture may condense on the crucial internal parts. To prevent the unit from possible damage, do not use the unit for at least 2 hours when there is an extreme or sudden change in temperature.

Place and Manner of Installation

Do not place in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could cause malfunction, and shorten the life of the LCD panel. Avoid locations with oil or cigarette smoke. Doing so will dirty the LCD panel and other optical parts, shortening their lives, and darkening the screen. Do not place slantwise in angle of 20 or more. Doing so could shorten the life of the lamp. Using this instrument near a TV or radio may cause intereference to the images or audio sound. If this happens, move it away from the TV or radio. Moving the projector from a low-temperature room to a high-temperature room may cause condensation on the lens or internal parts in the instrument. If you continue to use it in that situation, the malfunction may result. Ensure to wait until the condensation naturally disappears. In a high altitude location where air is thin, cooling efficiency of the scanner is reduced so use it with the ambient temperature being lowered.

Before Using

If your line voltage is 220 to 240V, use one of the following types of cable.

IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS (Continued) Avoid Volatile Liquid

Do not use volatile liquids, such as an insect spray, near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products touching the unit for a long time. They will leave marks on the finish. If cleaning with a chemically saturated cloth, be sure to follow the product's precautions.

Toshiba Corporation bears no responsibility for incidental damages (lost profit, work interruption, corruption or loss of the memory contents, etc.) arising from the use of or the inability to use this unit. Toshiba Corporation accepts no liability whatsoever for any damages arising from not having followed the descriptions in this Instruction Manual. Toshiba Corporation accepts no liability whatsoever for any damages arising from malfunctions arising from combination with equipment or software that is not related to Toshiba Corporation.

LCD Panel
The life of the LCD panel is limited. Take care over the points below so as to use the panel for years. To prolong the life of this panel, never fail to turn the power off when the panel is not in use and make sure that the lamp has gone out. The state of the lamp being extinguished helps enhance the effect of energy saving. If the air filter is stained and is clogged up, the main unit inner temperature rises. As a result, the life of the LCD is shortened and a malfunction may also occur. Clean the air filter from time to time and replace it regularly. It is recommended that this replacement be done at the time of replacing a lamp. (Ask a dealer where the unit was purchased or your nearby service station about an air filter for replacement.)

WARNING
Do not look into the lens during operation. Doing so could damage your vision.

Before unplugging the power cord, make sure that the LAMP indicator is off. Unplugging the power cord and cutting off the power while the projector is running or being cooled will shorten the life of the lamp. However, please unplug the power cord if the projector locks up or acts abnormally. If the power cord was unplugged before cooling was complete, give the lamp sufficient time to cool before plugging it back in. If the lamp overheats, it may fail to light, and its lifetime will be shortened.

CAUTION
Do not block the air intake or exhaust. Doing so could cause a fire due to internal overheating. Do not place your hands, face, or other objects near the air exhaust. Doing so could cause burns, deform/break the object.

LCD Panels
LCD panels wear out. In order to prolong the lifetime of your LCD panel, take the following precautions. In order to extend the lifetime of the LCD panel, always turn off the power when not in use, and make sure that the lamp is off. Keeping the lamp off is also very effective at saving electricity. If the air filter becomes dirty and clogged, the projectors internal temperature will rise, shortening the lifetime of the LCD panel and causing malfunctions. Clean the air filter from time to time p.32 , and replace it periodically. Contact the store where you purchased your projector, or your local Service Station for replacement air filters.

Notes
The start-up screen will disappear after a moment. You can dismiss the start-up screen before this by performing any operation. You can also configure the start-up screen not to appear via the Display setting menu p.31 .

Note that because of the lamp characteristics, the brightness of the lamp may fluctuate slightly. A lamp is a consumable supply. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and the lamp could burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The lifetime of the lamp depends on conditions of use.) The LCD panel is made using extremely advanced technology, but there may be black spots (pixels that do not light) or bright spots (pixels that are constantly lit) on the panel. Please note that these are not malfunctions. Although this projector supports a wide range of RGB signals p.38 , any resolutions not supported by the model (XGA or SVGA, depending on the model) will expand or shrink the pictures, and will affect image quality slightly. To view high-quality images, it is recommended that the computers external output should be set to the projectors resolution. With some models of computer having LCD displays or the like, displaying images simultaneously on the projector and the monitors display may cause the images to be shown improperly. If this happens, turn off the computers LCD display. For information on how to turn off the LCD display, see the owners manual of your computer.

2 Remove the air filter.
Pull out the air filter by taking the catch shown in the figure.

I Main unit cleaning

Clean the main unit after unplugging the power cord. Wipe dirt off the main unit gently with a soft cloth. If the soiling is severe, dip the cloth in a neutral detergent diluted in water, wring well, and gently wipe off the dirt, then finish up by wiping with a dry cloth.

G Replacing air intake and exhaust fans, and air filter

3 Clean the filter.

Carefully remove the dust and dirt from the air filter with a vacuum cleaner or the like.

To maintain the performance, it is recommended that these should be replaced about every 2 to 3 years. Consult with your dealer for details.

Lamp replacement
A lamp is consumable supplies. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and the lamp could burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The lifetime of the lamp depends on condition of use. If this happens, replace it with a new one.

WARNING
If the projector is mounted on a ceiling, request a lamp replacement from your projector dealership. When replacing, always use lamp TLPLV3 (sold separately).

CAUTION
Notes
Allowing dirt and dust to build up in the air filter will worsen the air circulation inside the projector, causing the internal temperature to rise, causing the projector to stop working or malfunction. Insert the air filter all the way in. Leaving gaps will allow dust and dirt to get inside the projector again. If you wash the air filer with water, make sure to dry it completely before replacing it. If the air filter is torn, consult with your dealer about replacing it with a new one. Continuing to use a ripped filter will allow dust and dirt to get inside the projector. If you have been using the projector, the lamp will be very hot, and may cause burn injuries. Wait for the lamp to cool (for longer than 1 hour) before replacing it. If the lamp should break, please handle with care to avoid injury due to broken pieces and contact your dealer for repair service.
