•After the POWER button is pressed, the image may ﬂicker before the lamp becomes stable. This is not a product malfunction.

•Regardless of the setting of LAMP MODE in the INSTALLATION menu, the STANDARD lamp mode is activated by default whenever the projector is turned on. When LAMP MODE has been set to LOW, the lamp mode changes from STANDARD to LOW about 1 minute after turn-on.
