A PIN code consists of a four-digit number. Refer to the PIN code lock function in the Setting Menu on pages 54–55 for locking operation of the projector with your PIN code.

CAUTION ON HANDLING PIN CODE

If you forget your PIN code, the projector can no longer be started. Take a special care in setting a new PIN code; write down the number in a column on page 78 of this manual and keep it at hand. Should the PIN code be missing or forgotten, consult your dealer or service center.
