Before calling your dealer or service center for assistance, check the items below once again.

Make sure you have properly connected the projector to peripheral equipment as described in "Connecting to a Computer" and “Connecting to Video Equipment” on page17-19.

Make sure all equipment is connected to AC outlet and the power is turned on.

When you operate the projector with a computer and it does not project an image, restart the computer.

– Solutions

 

 

No power

– Plug the power cord of the projector into the AC outlet.

 

– See if the POWER indicator lights red.

 

– Wait 90-120 seconds after the projector is turned OFF when turning the

 

projector back on. The projector can be turned on after the POWER

 

indicator turns red. (See “Turning Off the Projector” on page 21.)

 

– Check the WARNING indicator. If the WARNING indicator lights red, the

 

projector cannot be turned on. (See "Warning Indicator" on page 49.)

Adjust focus of the projector. (See page 24.)

Provide proper distance between the projector and the projection screen. (See page 15.)

Check the projection lens to see if it needs cleaning. (See page 51.)

Moving the projector from a cool to a warm place may result in moisture condensation on the projection lens. In such cases, leave the projector OFF and wait until condensation disappears.

and the projector. (See page 17–19)

laptop computers may need to change the setting for monitor output when

 

 

connecting to a projector. See your computer’s instruction manual for the

 

 

setting.

 

– It takes about 30 seconds to display an image after turning on the projector.

 

– See if the selected system is corresponding with your computer or video

 

 

equipment. (See page 28 and 37)
