Caution concerning the lamp unit ■ There is a potential hazard of glass particles if the lamp ruptures. In case of lamp rupture, contact your nearest Sharp Authorised Projector Dealer or Service Centre for replacement. See “Replacing the Lamp” on page 59. CAUTION PRECAUCIÓN PRÉCAUTION BQC-XVZ200++1 Cautions 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 lens and part of filter must be cleaned more often than usual. 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 a Sharp Authorised Projector Dealer or Service Centre. 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 colours, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room. Do not subject the projector to hard impact and/ or vibration. ■ Take care with the lens so as not to hit or damage the surface of the lens. Rest your eyes occasionally. ■ Watching the screen for long hours continuously will make your eyes tired. Be sure to occasionally rest your eyes. Do not expose the projector to extreme heat or cold. ■ Operating temperature: +5°C to 35°C ■ Storage temperature: –20°C to +60°C +35˚C +5˚C Notes on Operation ■ 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. Cautions regarding the transportation of the projector ■ When transporting the projector, be sure not to subject it to hard impact and/or vibration, as this can result in damage. Take extra caution with the lens. Before moving the projector, be sure to unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, and disconnect any other cables connected to it. Other connected equipment ■ When connecting other audio-visual equipment or a computer to the projector, make the connections AFTER turning off the projector and the equipment to be connected. ■ Please read the operation manuals of the projector and the equipment to be connected for instructions on how to make the connections. Temperature monitor function ■ If the projector starts to overheat due to setup problems or blockage of the air vents, “ ” and “ ” will blink in the lower left corner of the picture. If the temperature continues to rise, the lamp will turn off, the temperature warning indicator on the projector will blink, and after a 90-second cooling-off period the projector will enter the standby mode. Refer to “Maintenance Indicators” on page 58 for details. Info • The cooling fan regulates the internal temperature, and its performance is automatically controlled. The sound of the fan may change during projector operation due to changes in the fan speed. This does not indicate malfunction. ■ The exhaust ventilative holes, the lamp unit cover and adjacent areas may get extremely hot during projector operation. To prevent injury, do not touch these areas until they have sufficiently cooled down. ■ Allow at least 30 cm of space between the exhaust ventilative hole and the nearest wall or obstruction. -6 XV_Z200E_E_p04_12.p65 6 03.10.30, 13:13PM Quick Guide Introduction ○ In this page, connection of the projector and the video equipment is explained as an example for the procedure from setup to projection.

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, the glass particles may spread inside the lamp unit 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. ■ 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 Authorised Projector Dealer or Service Centre to remove the damaged lamp and assure safe operation.

The normal aspect ratio of a computer and video image is 4:3. There are also wide images with an aspect ratio of 16:9 and 21:9. Auto Sync Optimizes projected computer images by automatically adjusting certain characteristics. Background Initial setting image projected when no signal is being output. Clock Clock adjustment is used to adjust vertical noise when clock level is incorrect. CLR Temp (Colour temperature) Function that can be used to adjust the colour temperature to suit the type of image input to the projector. Decrease the colour temperature to create warmer, reddish images for natural flesh tones, or increase to create cooler, bluish images for a brighter picture. Image quality enhancement function that offers a richer image by brightening the darker portions of the image without altering the brightness of the brighter portions. You can select from four different modes: Standard, Cinema 1, Cinema 2 and Cinema 3. Intelligent compression and expansion High quality resizing of lower and higher resolution images to fit the projector’s native resolution. Phase Phase shift is a timing shift between isomorphic signals with the same resolution. When phase level is incorrect, the projected image typically displays horizontal flicker. Resize Allows you to modify or customize the picture display mode to enhance the input image. You can select from four different modes: SIDE BAR, SMART STRETCH, CINEMA ZOOM and STRETCH. RS-232C Composite sync Signal combining horizontal and vertical sync pulses. Digital keystone correction Function to digitally correct a distorted image when the projector is set up at an angle, smoothes out jaggies on keystone images and compresses the image not only horizontally but vertically keeping the 16 : 9 aspect ratio. DVI (Digital Visual Interface) Display digital interface that also supports analog interfaces. Function to control the projector from the computer by using the RS-232C ports on the projector and computer. Stretch Mode that stretches the 4:3 image horizontally to display it on the wide screen. Sync on green Video signal mode of a computer which overlaps horizontal and vertical sync signal to green colour signal pin.
