Operation

Start up

1.Plug the power cord into the projector and into

a wall socket. Turn on the wall socket switch (where fitted). Check that the Power indicator on the projector lights orange after power has been applied.

The power cable used in the illustration may look different to the power cable type used in your region. Use only the power cable as supplied with the projector, and which is suitable for your region.

2.Remove the lens cover. If it is closed, it could become deformed due to the heat produced by the projection lamp.

3.Press Power on the projector or remote control to start the projector. The Power indicator light flashes green and stays green when the projector is on.

The start up procedure takes about 30 seconds. In the later stage of start up, a startup logo is projected.

(If necessary) Rotate the focus ring to adjust the picture clarity.

PUSH

If the projector is still hot from previous activity, it will run the cooling fan for approximately 120 seconds before energizing the lamp.

4.If you are prompted for a password, press the arrow buttons to enter a six digit password. See "Utilizing the power-on lock function" on page 25 for details.

5.Switch all of the connected equipment on.

6.The projector will start to search for input signals. The current input source being scanned displays in the upper left corner of the screen. If the projector doesn't detect a valid signal, the 'No Signal' message will continue displaying until an input source signal is found.

You can also press SOURCE on the projector or remote control to select your desired input signal. See "Switching input signal" on page 27 for details.

If the frequency/resolution of the input signal exceeds the projector's operating range, you will see the message 'Out of Range' displayed on a blank screen. Please change to an input signal which is compatible with the projector's resolution or set the input signal to a lower setting.

See "Timing chart" on page 58 for details.
