Do not place the unit in any places where the temperature is extremely hot or cold, or the humidity is extremely high.
Especially when there is strong sunshine or during the summer, the inside of a car can get quite hot, and a unit left in
the car may deform or malfunction.
Do not place the unit on an unstable surface. The unit may fall or topple over resulting in injuries.
Do not place the unit where there is water. It may cause a fire or electric shock.
Do not place/store the unit in a place exposed to direct sunlight or close to a heater. Heat may build up in the unit
causing a fire.
On AC adaptor and cables
Do not damage the power cord. It may cause a fire or electric shock.
Be sure to use the supplied AC adaptor with the unit. If a different AC adaptor is used with the unit, it may cause a
fire, electric shock or malfunction.
Do not touch the power plug with wet hands. It may cause an electric shock.
Before making connections with the AC adaptor and connection cables, turn off the unit and connected equipment,
and unplug the power plugs from the wall outlet.
Do not wrap the power cord or connection cable around the AC adaptor. It may cause the cord or cable to break.
Before moving the unit, disconnect the power cord and connection cables. The cables may be damaged resulting in
a fire or electric shock, or connected equipment may fall or topple over causing injuries.
Insert the connector straight. If it is inserted at an angle, pins may make a short circuit causing a fire.
On fan noise
A fan is incorporated inside the projector to prevent overheating, and this makes a slight noise while turned on. This
noise is not a malfunction. However, if there are any abnormal noises, consult qualified Sony personnel.
On light source maintenance
This unit uses a laser, therefore special caution and facilities are necessary for the inspection and maintenance of
light source components. Be sure to consult qualified Sony personnel.
On projector
Although this unit is manufactured using very high precision technology, there may be some permanent black or
white pixels on the projected screen. Also, there may be striped unevenness in color or brightness. This is a result of
the projector structure and is not a malfunction. The color balance of each projector unit varies; therefore, when
multiple LCD projectors are used, the color reproduction among projectors may vary, even if they are of the same
model.
Depending on viewed content, primary colors such as red, blue, or green are visible when you move your eyes or
under certain conditions; this is not a malfunction. It is caused by a “color breakup” phenomenon which is specific to
the field-sequential color system adopted into the unit for displaying images. This phenomenon can be subdued by
diminishing the contrast between the image and the backdrop, such as decreasing the brightness of the unit or
increasing the brightness of the room.
On condensation
If the projector is moved suddenly from a cold to a warm place, or just after a room heater is turned on in a winter
morning, condensation may occur on the surface or inside of the projector. If condensation occurs, leave the
projector turned off until the condensation dissipates. If the projector is used while there is condensation, it may
cause a malfunction.
On ventilation holes
Do not block the ventilation holes (intake/exhaust). If the ventilation holes are blocked, heat will build up inside the
unit, causing a fire or malfunction. To maintain good ventilation, observe the following:
Place the unit away from walls and objects.
