Has the computer been set for dual display?
(When connected to a computer) If dual display has been activated in the Display
Properties of the computer's Control Panel, the
projector will only project about half of the image on
the computer screen. To display the whole of the image
on the computer screen, turn off the dual display
setting. Refer to the video driver manual for the
computer's monitor for further details.

Is the lamp due for replacement?
If the indicator is flashing orange, it means that the
lamp will soon be due for replacement. When the lamp
is nearly due for replacement, the image will become
darker and the tint will become poorer.
Replace the lamp with a new one. (p.47, 48)
