IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS  
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 lens and the crucial internal parts. Do not use the unit for at least 2 hours when there  
is an extreme or sudden change in temperature to prevent the unit from possible damage.  
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 projector.  
• Avoid locations with oil or cigarette smoke. Doing so will dirty the optical parts, shortening  
their lives, and darkening the screen.  
• Do not use this product in the upright position or tilt it up or down by more than 20° from  
level. Doing so may cause a failure or shorten the life of the product.  
• Using this instrument near a TV or radio may cause interference 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. If you continue to use it in that situation it may  
malfunction. Wait until the condensation naturally disappears.  
• In a high altitude location where air is thin, cooling efficiency is reduced so use the pro-  
jector with [Fan mode] set to [High].

IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS (Continued)  
• The set of projector is hot after use. Handle with care.  
• Do not use the projector while holding it in your hands or lap.  
• Do not use the projector near a power source and the like, or in locations like a ship or ve-  
hicle that are subject to vibration or shock. Doing so may lead to a malfunction or shorten  
service life.  
• Only plug the power cord into outlets rated for use with the power cord’s specified voltage  
range. Do not overload extension cords or power strips as this can result in fire or electric  
shock.  
• Route the power cable or the connecting cable away from where people could trip over it.  
The projector may fall, which could result in severe injury.  
• Be sure the power cord is easily reached for unplugging in case of emergency. Do not  
place any obstacles near a wall outlet in which the cord is plugged.  
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, as they will leave marks on the finish.  
Do not use a chemically saturated cloth.

Notes  
• Lamp characteristics may rarely cause the brightness to fluctuate slightly.  
• A lamp is consumable item. 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 DLP® chip is made using extremely advanced technology. There may be black spots  
(pixels that do not light) or bright spots (pixels that are constantly lit) on the panel. These  
are intrinsic characteristics of the technology and are not malfunctions.  
• Although this projector supports a wide range of RGB signals  
, any resolutions not  
supported by this projector (XGA) will be expanded or shrunk, which will affect image  
quality slightly. To view high-quality images, set the computer’s external output to XGA.  
• With some models of computer having LCD displays or the like, displaying images  
simultaneously on the projector and the monitor’s display may prevent the images from  
displaying properly. If this happens, turn off the computer’s LCD display. For information  
on how to turn off the LCD display, see the computer’s owner’s manual.

Maintenance  
About lamp  
The product’s light source is a mercury lamp that lights at increased internal pressure. Be sure  
to fully understand the following characteristics of the lamp and handle it with extreme care.  
• The lamp may burst with a loud noise due to impact or deterioration, or fail to light at the  
expiration of its life.  
• How long it takes before the lamp bursts or the life expires may vary greatly by lamp.  
Some may burst shortly after first use.  
• Burst is likely to happen if the lamp is used after the replacement period has elapsed.  
• When the lamp bursts, the broken pieces of glass may get inside the product or be  
released outside from the openings for ventilation.  
• When the lamp bursts, a slight amount of mercury gas enclosed in the lamp along with  
glass dust may be released from the openings for ventilation.  
Immediately replace the lamp when a replacement message  
appears on the screen.  
• When the replacement time approaches, a message will appear on the screen.  
• The risk of burst will increase if the lamp is continuously used without being replaced.  
• Frequently check the used hours and prepare spares when the replacement time  
approaches. (Refer to “Status display”.  
When the lamp is broken  
• If glass components, including a lamp and a lens, should break, handle the broken  
pieces with care to avoid injury and contact your dealer for repair service.  
• In the event of lamp burst, unplug the product from the wall outlet, leave and completely  
ventilate the room. Then, thoroughly clean the area around the projector and discard any  
edible items placed in that area, as they may be contaminated.  
• When the lamp bursts, consult a doctor if glass dust or mercury gas gets into your eyes  
or is inhaled.  
36  
 
 
Lamp replacement  
A lamp is 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 condition of use.) If this happens, replace it with a new one  
.
WARNING  
If the projector is mounted on the ceiling, it is recommended to use your Toshiba dealer-  
ship when the lamp has to be exchanged.  
Uncovering the lamp while the projector is mounted on a ceiling may lead to a danger  
of damage from falling pieces of glass if the lamp is broken. Besides, working at high  
elevations can also be hazardous. Do not attempt to replace the lamp by yourself.  
When replacing, always use lamp “TLPLV10” (sold separately). If the lamp other  
than the specified one is used, it may cause a malfunction or damage to the unit due  
to the difference in the connector shape or the lamp rate.  
CAUTION  
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.  
Unplug power cord.

Notes and Precautions  
• The [Lamp time] item in the Status display menu indicates the time of lamp use (as a  
rough guide).  
• It is recommended that the lamp be replaced after 3,000 hours of use.When [Lamp  
time] reaches 3,000 hours, a message will appear. (After 3,000 hours, the message will  
appear when the power is first turned on after each 100 hour period of use.) This display  
disappears when you press the  
button.  
• Attach the lamp cover correctly so that it is not loose. If it is not attached correctly, the  
projector may fail to be powered on or the lamp may fail to come on.  
• Always replace the lamp with a new one.  
• The lamp is made out of glass. Do not touch the glass surface with your bare hands,  
bang it, or scratch it. (Dirt, jolts, scratches and the like could break the lamp.)  
Used Lamps  
This projector’s lamps contain trace amounts of environmentally harmful inorganic mer-  
cury. Be careful not to break used lamps, and dispose of them in accordance with local  
regulations.

Attempting to clean or replace the lamp in a high location by yourself may cause you  
to fall, resulting in injury.  
Lens cleaning  
• Clean the lens with a commercially available blower and/or  
lens cleaner.  
• The lens is easily scratched, so do not rub it with hard objects,  
or strike it.  
Main unit cleaning  
• Unplug the power cord before cleaning the main unit.

so may allow water to get inside, resulting in an  
electric shock or unit failure.  
• Do not use benzene, thinner and the like as they  
may deform or discolor the unit or damage the paint  
surface.  
• Do not use a chemically saturated cloth.
