• This symptom is normal for a DLP projector and is not a malfunction. (A very small number of pixels may stay
lit or out, but such symptom is not a malfunction. Pixels of 99.99% or more are effective.)
• This is due to color breaking noise that occurs in a DLP system and is not a malfunction.
• It occurs because of interference with the screen and isn't a product malfunction. Change the screen or read-
just the focus of the projector.
• Connect the cable's plug with the external device's connector firmly.
• Keep the projector away from equipment generating interfering radio waves.
• When the keystone adjustment is carried out, the image may not be displayed correctly because of the type
of input signal. This isn't a product malfunction. In this case, readjust the keystone so that the amount of key-
stone correction is as small as possible.
• Check that COMPUTER INPUT in the SIGNAL menu is correctly set. (See page 17.)
• Check that the cable connected to the external device isn't broken.
• This is caused by the computer being used. Contact the manufacturer of your computer.
• Match the output resolution of your computer with the resolution of the projector. For the method to change
the output resolution of the computer, contact the manufacturer of your computer. (See page 29.)
• Some images and texts appear obscured during the keystone adjustment. In such cases, use the projector
