CAUTIONS CONCERNING THE SETUP OF THE
PROJECTOR
For minimal servicing and to maintain high image quality,
PHILIPS recommends that this projector be installed in an area
free from humidity, dust and cigarettesmoke. If the projector is
used in these environments, the lens and filter will need to be
cleaned (or the filter replaced) more often, and internal
cleaning may become necessary. 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 Philips Authorised LCD Projector
Dealer or Service Centre.
NOTES ON OPERATION
•The exhaust vent, the lamp cage cover and adjacent areas
may be extremely hot during projector operation. To prevent
injury, do not touch these areas until they have sufficiently
cooled.
•Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches) of space between the cooling
fan (exhaust vent) and the nearest wall or obstruction.
•If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a protection device
will automatically turn off the projector lamp. This does not
indicate a malfunction. Remove the projector powercord from
the wall outlet and wait at least 10 minutes.
Then turn on the power by plugging the powercord back in.
This will return the projector to the normal operating
condition.
TEMPERATURE MONITOR FUNCTION
If the projector starts to overheat due to setup problems or a
dirty air filter,’TEMP.’ and ‘
’ will flash in the lower-left corner
of the picture. If the temperature continues to rise,the lamp
will turn off,the Temperature warning indicator (Temp.) on the
projector will flash,and after a 90-second cooling-off period the
power will shut off. Refer to ‘Lamp / Maintenance Indicators’
on pages 29-31 for details.
Note:
The cooling fan regulates the internal temperature, and its
performance is automatically controlled. The sound of the fan
may change during projector operation due to changes in the
fan speed.
LAMP MONITOR FUNCTION
When the projector is turned on after the lamp has been used
for 900 hours, ‘LAMP’ and ‘
’ will flash in the lower-left
corner of the picture to advise you to replace the lamp.
See pages 30 and 31 for lamp replacement. If the lamp has
been used for 1,000 hours, the projector power will
automatically turn off and the projector will enter the standby
mode. Refer to ‘Lamp/Maintenance Indicators’ on page 29-31
for further details.
