Solving Picture Problems

You cannot turn on the projector.

Make sure the power cord is connected and the power switch is turned on. Then wait a moment for the power light to turn orange before pressing the P Power button.

If you’ve set the Operation Lock, the control panel buttons are disabled; you must use the remote control to turn on the projector (see page 31).
