After you turn on your projector, ensure that the com- puter or video source is turned on and that your lens cap is removed.
NOTE: If you turn on the projector immediately after the lamp is turned off or when the temperature is high, the fans runs without displaying an image for some time and then the projector will dis- play the image.
