Observe the following safeguards when setting up yourprojector.Caution concerning the lamp unit Potential hazard of glass par-
ticles if lamp ruptures. Incase of lamp rupture, contactyour nearest Sharp Autho-rized Projector Dealer or Ser-vice Center for replacement.See “Replacing the Lamp” onpage 55.
Caution concerning the setup of the pro-jector For minimal servicing and to maintain high
image quality, SHARP recommends that thisprojector be installed in an area free fromhumidity, dust and cigarette smoke. When theprojector is subjected to these environments,the vents and lens must be cleaned more of-ten. As long as the projector is regularlycleaned, use in these environments will notreduce the overall operation life of the unit.Internal cleaning should only be performedby a Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer orService Center.
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 onthe screen washes out the colors, makingviewing difficult. Close the curtains and dimthe lights when setting up the screen in asunny or bright room.
Caution regarding placing of the projec-tor Place the projector on a level site within the
adjustment range (8 degrees) of the adjust-ment foot.
After the projector is purchased, a faint smellfrom the vent may appear when the power isfirst turned on. This is normal and is not amalfunction. It will disappear after the projec-tor is used for a while.
When using the projector in high-altitudeareas such as mountains (at altitudes ofapproximately 1,500 meters (4,900 feet)or more) When you use the projector in high-altitude
areas with thin air, set “Fan Mode” to “High”.Neglecting this can affect the longevity of theoptical system.
Warning about placing the projector ina high position When placing the projector in a high position,
ensure that it is secured carefully to avoid per-sonal injury caused by the projector fallingdown.
Do not subject the projector to hard im-pact and/or vibration. Protect the lens so as not to hit or damage
the surface of the lens.
Rest your eyes occasionally. Continuously watching the screen for long
hours will cause eye strain. Be sure to occa-sionally rest your eyes.
Avoid locations with extremes of tem-perature. The operating temperature of the projector is
from 41°F to 95°F (+5°C to +35°C). The storage temperature of the projector is
from –4°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C).
Do not block the exhaust and intakevents. Allow at least 11 13/16 inches (30 cm) of space
between the exhaust vent and the nearestwall or obstruction.
Be sure that the intake vent and the exhaustvent are not obstructed.
If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro-tection circuit will automatically put the pro-jector into standby mode to prevent overheatdamage. This does not indicate a malfunc-tion. (See pages 53 and 54.) Remove the pro-jector power cord from the wall outlet and waitat least 10 minutes. Place the projector wherethe intake and exhaust vents are not blocked,plug the power cord back in and turn on theprojector. This will return the projector to thenormal operating condition.

When turning off the projector, the cooling fanruns to decrease the internal temperature fora while. Unplug the power cord after the cool-ing fan stops. The period the cooling fan runswill vary, depending on the circumstances andthe internal temperature.
Caution regarding usage of the projector When using the projector, be sure not to sub-
ject it to hard impact and/or vibration, as thiscan result in damage. Take extra care withthe lens. Before moving the projector, be sureto unplug the power cord from the wall outlet,and disconnect any other cables connectedto it.
Do not carry the projector by holding the lens. When storing the projector, re-attach the lens
cap. (See page 12). Do not expose the projector to direct sunlight
or place next to heat sources. Doing so mayaffect the cabinet color or cause deformationof the plastic cover.
Other connected equipment When connecting a computer or other audio-
visual equipment to the projector, make theconnections AFTER unplugging the powercord of the projector from the AC outlet andturning off the equipment to be connected.
Please read the operation manuals of the pro-jector and the equipment to be connected forinstructions on how to make the connections.
Info• The cooling fan regulates the internal tem-
perature, and its performance is automaticallycontrolled. The sound of the fan may changeduring projector operation due to changes inthe fan speed. This does not indicate malfunc-tion.
• Do not unplug the power cord during projec-tion or cooling fan operation. This can causedamage due to rise in internal temperature,as the cooling fan also stops.
Using the projector in other countries The power supply voltage and the shape of
the plug may vary depending on the regionor country you are using the projector in.When using the projector overseas, be sureto use an appropriate power cord for the coun-try you are in.
Temperature monitor function
If the projector starts to overheat due to setupproblems or blockage of the air vents, “ ” and“ ” will illuminate in the lower left cornerof the picture. If the temperature continues torise, the lamp will turn off, the temperature warn-ing indicator on the projector will blink, and aftera 90-second cooling-off period the projector willenter standby mode. Refer to “Maintenance In-dicators” on page 53 for details.

• Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.Replace only with the same or equivalent type.
• Insert the batteries making sure the polarities correctly match the m and n marks inside the batterycompartment.
• Batteries of different types have different properties, therefore do not mix batteries of different types.• Do not mix new and old batteries.
This may shorten the life of new batteries or may cause old batteries to leak.• Remove the batteries from the remote control once they have run out, as leaving them in can cause them
to leak.Battery fluid from leaked batteries is harmful to skin, therefore ensure that you first wipe them and thenremove them using a cloth.
• The batteries included with this projector may run down in a short period, depending on how they are kept.Be sure to replace them as soon as possible with new batteries.
• Remove the batteries from the remote control if you will not be using the remote control for a long time.• Comply with the rules (ordinance) of each local government when disposing of worn-out batteries.
Incorrect use of the batteries may cause them to leak or explode. Pleasefollow the precautions below.

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. The lamp life(percentage) can be checked with the on-screen display. (see page 47)
Purchase a replacement lamp of type AN-XR20LP from your place of purchase, nearest SharpAuthorized Projector 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, surfacescratches 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 conditionand 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 recommendedthat the lamp be replaced with a new one immediately, even if the lamp appears to be operatingnormally.
Should the lamp break, there is also a possibility that glass particles may spread inside of theprojector. In such a case, it is recommended you contact your nearest Sharp Authorized ProjectorDealer or Service Center to assure safe operation.
Should the lamp break, the glass particles may spread inside the lamp cage or gas contained in thelamp may be vented into the room from the exhaust vent. Because the gas in this lamp includesmercury, ventilate the room well if the lamp breaks and avoid all exposure to the released gas. In caseof exposure to the gas, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
Replacing the Lamp
Caution
• Do not remove the lamp unit from the projector right after use. The lamp will be very hot and maycause burn or injury.
