Turning Off the Projector

Notes:
• When the On start function is on, this projector is turned on automatically by connecting the AC power
cord to an AC outlet. (p.51)
The running speed of cooling fans is changed according to the temperature inside the projector.
• Do not put the projector in a case before the projector is cooled enough.
• If the WARNING TEMP. indicator blinks or emits a red light, see "Indicators and Projector Condition" on
pages 71-72.
While the POWER indicator is blinking, lamp is being cooled down and the projector cannot be turned
on. Wait until the POWER indicator stops blinking to be turned on again.
The fan rotation will terminate directly if the AC power cord is unplugged immediately after the projector
is turned off.
The projector can be turned on after the POWER indicator turns red. The waiting time to restart will be
shortened when the normal power-off processing for fan cooling is completed, compared with the time
the AC power cord is immediately unplugged after the power-off.
The message disappears after 4 seconds.
