Observe the following safeguards when setting up your
projector.
Caution concerning the lamp unit
Potential hazard of glass par-
ticles if lamp ruptures. In case
of lamp rupture, contact your
nearest Sharp Authorized
Projector Dealer or Service
Center for replacement.
See “Replacing the Lamp” on
page 52.
Caution concerning the setup of the
projector
For minimal servicing and to maintain high
image quality, SHARP recommends that this
projector be installed in an area free from
humidity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the
projector is subjected to these environments,
the vents and lens must be cleaned more of-
ten. 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 Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or
Service Center.
Do not set up the projector in places
exposed to direct sunlight or bright light.
Position the screen so that it is not in direct
sunlight or room light. Light falling directly on
the screen washes out the colors, making
viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim
the lights when setting up the screen in a
sunny or bright room.
Caution regarding placing of the projector
Place the projector on a level site within the
adjustment range (9 degrees) of the adjust-
ment foot.
When using the projector in high-altitude
areas such as mountains (at altitudes of
approximately 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 the
optical system.
Warning about placing the projector in
a high position
When placing the projector in a high position,
make certain it is carefully secure to avoid
personal injury caused by the projector fall-
ing down.
Do not subject the projector to hard
impact 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. Take regular
breaks to rest your eyes.
Avoid locations with extremes of
temperature.
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 intake
vents.
Allow at least 11
13
/16 inches (30 cm) of space
between the exhaust vent and the nearest
wall or obstruction.
Ensure that the intake vent and the exhaust
vent are not obstructed.
If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a pro-
tection circuit will automatically put the pro-
jector into standby mode to prevent overheat
damage. This does not indicate a malfunc-
tion. (See pages 50 and 51.) Remove the pro-
jector power cord from the wall outlet and wait
at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where
the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked,
plug the power cord back in and turn on the
projector. This will return the projector to the
normal operating condition.
After the projector is purchased, a faint smell
from the vent may appear when the power is
first turned on. This is normal and is not a
malfunction. It will disappear after the projec-
tor is used for a while.

Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with alkaline or manganese batteries.
Insert the batteries making sure the polarities correctly match the m and n marks inside the battery
compartment.
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 you wipe them first and then remove
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. Please
follow the precautions below.

Appendix
Cleaning the lens
Use a commercially available blower or lens
cleaning paper (for glasses and camera lenses)
for cleaning the lens. Do not use any liquid type
cleaning agents, as they may wear off the
coating film on the surface of the lens.
As the surface of the lens can easily get
damaged, be careful not to scrape or hit the
lens.
Cleaning the exhaust and intake vents
Use a vacuum cleaner to clean dust from the
exhaust vent and the intake vent.
Cleaning the projector
Ensure that you have unplugged the power
cord before cleaning the projector.
The cabinet as well as the operation panel is
made of plastic. Avoid using benzene or
thinner, as these can damage the finish on the
cabinet.
Do not use volatile agents such as insecticides
on the projector.
Do not attach rubber or plastic items to the
projector for long periods.
The effects of some of the agents in the plastic
may cause damage to the quality or finish of the
projector.
Wipe off dirt gently with a soft flannel cloth.
When the dirt is hard to remove, soak a cloth in
a mild detergent diluted with water, wring the
cloth well and then wipe the projector.
Strong cleaning detergents may discolor, warp
or damage the coating on the projector. Make
sure to test on a small, inconspicuous area on
the projector before use.
Maintenance
If you want to clean the air vents during projec-
tor operation, ensure you press STANDBY/ON
on the projector or STANDBY on the remote
control and put the projector into standby
mode. After the cooling fan has stopped, clean
the vents.

About the lamp indicator
When the remaining lamp life becomes 5% or less, (yellow) and “Change The Lamp” will be
displayed on the screen. When the percentage becomes 0%, it will change to (red), the lamp will
automatically turn off and then the projector will automatically enter standby mode. At this time, the
lamp indicator will illuminate in red.
If you try to turn on the projector a fourth time without replacing the lamp, the projector will
not turn on.
About the temperature warning indicator
If the temperature inside the projector increases, due to blockage of the air vents, or the setting location,
” will illuminate in the lower left corner of the picture. If the temperature keeps on rising, the lamp
will turn off and the temperature warning indicator will blink, the cooling fan will run, and then the projec-
tor will enter standby mode. After “ ” appears, ensure you perform the measures described on
page 51.
The warning lights (power indicator, lamp indicator and temperature warning indicator) on the
projector indicate problems inside the projector.

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-F212LP from your place of purchase, nearest Sharp
Authorized 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, surface
scratches 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 condition
and 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 recommended
that the lamp be replaced with a new one immediately, even if the lamp appears to be operating
normally.
Should the lamp break, there is also a possibility that glass particles may spread inside of the
projector. In such a case, it is recommended you contact your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector
Dealer or Service Center to assure safe operation.
Should the lamp break, the glass particles may spread inside the lamp cage or gas contained in the
lamp may be vented into the room from the exhaust vent. Because the gas in this lamp includes
mercury, ventilate the room well if the lamp breaks and avoid all exposure to the released gas. In case
of 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 may
cause burns or injury.
•Wait at least one hour after the power cord is disconnected to allow the surface of the lamp unit to fully
cool before removing the lamp unit.
Carefully change the lamp by following the instructions described in this section. * If you wish,
you may have the lamp replaced at your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service
Center.
* If the new lamp does not light after replacement, take your projector to the nearest Sharp Authorized
Projector Dealer or Service Center for repair.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO U.S. CUSTOMERS:
The lamp included with this projector is backed by a 90-day parts and labor limited
warranty. All service of this projector under warranty, including lamp replacement,
must be obtained through a Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center.
For the name of the nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center,
please call toll-free: 1-888-GO-SHARP (1-888-467-4277).

Info
When controlling the projector using RS-232C commands from a computer, wait for at least 30
seconds after the power has been turned on, and then transmit the commands.
After sending an input selection or picture adjustment command and then receiving an “OK” re-
sponse code, the projector may take some time to process the command. If a second command is
sent while the projector is still processing the first command, you may receive an “ERR” response
code. If this happens, try resending the second command.
When more than one code is being sent, send each command only after the response code for the
previous command from the projector is verified.
“POWR????” “TABN _ _ _ 1” “TLPS _ _ _ 1” “TPOW _ _ _ 1” “TLPN _ _ _ 1” “TLTT _ _ _ 1”
“TLTM _ _ _ 1” “TLTL _ _ _ 1” “TNAM _ _ _ 1” “MNRD _ _ _ 1” “PJN0 _ _ _ 1”
- When the projector receives the special commands shown above:
* The on-screen display will not disappear.
* The “Auto Power Off” timer will not be reset.
- The special commands are available for applications that require continuous polling.
Computer control
A computer can be used to control the projector by connecting an RS-232C serial control
cable (cross type, commercially available) to the projector. (See page 24 for connection.)
Communication conditions
Set the serial port settings of the computer to match that of the table.
Signal format: Conforms to RS-232C standard. Parity bit: None
Baud rate*: 9,600 bps / 115,200 bps Stop bit: 1 bit
Data length: 8 bits Flow control: None
*Set the projector’s baud rate to the same rate as used by the computer.
Basic format
Commands from the computer are sent in the following order: command, parameter, and
return code. After the projector processes the command from the computer, it sends a re-
sponse code to the computer.

Troubleshooting
Problem Check
•Projector power cord is not plugged into the wall outlet.
Power to the external connected devices is off.
The selected input mode is wrong.
Cables are incorrectly connected to the projector.
Remote control battery has run out.
External output has not been set when connecting notebook computer.
The lamp unit cover is not installed correctly.
If the connected DVI digital equipment is turned on before the “DVI-D”
input mode is selected on the projector, the image may not be
projected properly or may not be displayed at all. Ensure that the
appropriate input mode has been selected on the projector before you
turn on the connected equipment.
Cables are incorrectly connected to the projector.
“Bright” is set to minimum position.
Depending on the computer you are using, an image may not be
projected unless the signal output setting of the computer is
switched to the external output. Refer to the computer’s operation
manual for how to switch its signal output settings.
Image adjustments are incorrectly set.
Make adjustments of “Color” and “Tint” in “Picture Mode” and lower
the “BrilliantColor
TM
” value.
(Video Input only)
•Video input system is incorrectly set.
Adjust the focus.
The projection distance exceeds the focus range.
There is fog on the lens. If the projector is carried from a cold room into a
warm room, or if it is suddenly heated, condensation may form on the
surface of the lens and the image will become blurred. Set up the
projector at least one hour before it is to be used. If condensation should
form, remove the power cord from the wall outlet and wait for it to clear.
(Computer Input only)
Perform “Fine Sync” Adjustments (“Clock” Adjustment)
Perform “Fine Sync” Adjustments (“Phase” Adjustment)
Noise may appear depending on the computer.
Cables are incorrectly connected to the projector.
•Volume is set to minimum.
When the projector is connected to an external device and the
volume is set to minimum, the sound is not output even if you turn up
the volume of the external device.
“Speaker” is set to “Off”.
Select “Data image is not centered” in the “Help” menu and make the
necessary adjustments.
Depending on the computer you are using, the output resolution
signal may be different from the one you have set. For details, refer to
the operation manual of the computer.

performance.
See “Maintenance Indicators”.
The keylock is set.
If the keylock is set to “ON”, all the buttons are locked.
Change the input signal type setting.
When you cannot select an input signal type, select “Color is faded
or poor” in the “Help” menu, after selecting an item other than
“sRGB” in “Picture Mode”, and then select an input signal type.

runs faster.
The lamp indicator is illuminating in red.
Replace the lamp.
Cables are incorrectly connected to the projector or the connected
equipment works improperly.
Select “Vertical stripes or flickering image appear” in the “Help”
menu and make the necessary adjustments.
If this happens frequently, replace the lamp.
The lamp will eventually need to be changed.
While the remaining lamp life draws to a close, replace the lamp.
Operate the remote control while pointing it at the projector’s remote
control sensor.
The remote control may be too far away from the projector.
If direct sunlight or a strong fluorescent lamp is shining on the
projector’s remote control sensor, place the projector where it will not
be affected by strong light.
The batteries may be depleted or inserted incorrectly. Make sure the
batteries are inserted correctly or insert new ones.
