Operating Tips

Turning the TV On or Off

To turn the TV on or off, point the remote control at the front of the TV and press the POWER button. Alternatively, press the POWER button on the front panel of the TV.

If You Turn the TV Off by Mistake

1.Press POWER again within about 30 seconds, while the lamp is still hot, to have the TV come back on immedi- ately.

2.When the LAMP indicator starts blinking (about 30 seconds after you shut off power) the TV will ignore the POWER command. The LAMP indicator will continue to blink while the lamp is cooling.

3.Wait about one minute for the LAMP indicator to stop blinking and press POWER to turn the TV on again.
