104˚F
(40˚C)
41˚F
(5˚C)
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 lens must
be cleaned more often. As long as the projector is properly maintained in this
manner, use in these environments will not reduce the overall operation life.
Please note that all internal cleaning must be performed by an Authorized
Sharp Industrial LCD Products Dealer or Service Center.
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 4 inches (10 cm) of space between the 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 power cord from the wall outlet and wait at least 10 minutes. Then
turn on the power by plugging the power cord back in. This will return the
projector to the normal operating condition.

Setting Up the Screen
Using the Adjustment Feet
Using the Adjustment Feet
Setup & Connections
Rotate feet to adjust height of the projector.
Up
Down
• The projector is adjustable up to approximately 5° from the standard position.
• When the height of the projector is adjusted, the image may become distorted (keystoned), depending on the relative
positions of the projector and the screen.
CAUTION
• Do not hold the lens when lifting or lowering the projector.
• When lowering the projector, be careful not to get your fingers caught in the area between the adjustment feet and the
projector.
E-20
Adjusting the Projection Distance
Position the projector perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level to achieve an optimal image.
Move the projector forward or backward if the edges of the image are distorted.
Setup & Connections
• The projector lens should be centered in the middle of the screen. If the lens center is not perpendicular to the screen, the image will be
distorted, making viewing difficult.
• Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly onto the screen washes out colors, making viewing
difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room.
• A polarizing screen cannot be used with this projector.
Six optional lenses from Sharp are also available for specialized application. Please see your local Sharp Industrial
LCD Products Dealer to details on all the lenses. (Refer to the lens operation manual when attaching a lens.)

Image Projection
Rear Projection
Setup & Connections
• Place a translucent screen between the projector and
the audience.
• Use the projector’s menu system to reverse the
projected image. (See page 56 for use of this
function.)
• Optimal image quality can be achieved when the projector
is positioned perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat
and level.
Projection Using a Mirror
• When the distance between the projector and screen
is not sufficient for normal rear projection, you can
use a mirror to reflect the image onto the screen.
• Place a mirror (normal flat type) in front of the lens.
• Project the normal image onto the mirror.
• The image reflected from the mirror is projected onto
the translucent screen.
CAUTION
• When using a mirror, be sure to carefully position both the
projector and the mirror so the light does not shine into the
eyes of the audience.
Ceiling-mount Projection
• It is recommended that you use the optional Sharp
ceiling-mount bracket for this installation.
• Before mounting the projector, contact your nearest
Authorized Sharp Industrial LCD Products Dealer or
Service Center to obtain the recommended ceilingmount bracket (sold separately). (AN-XGCM70
ceiling-mount bracket, AN-EP101AP extension tube
for AN-XGCM70.)
• When the projector is in the inverted position, use the
upper edge of the screen as the base line.
