note

When the projector has not received any input signals for 30 minutes, it automatically turns off the projector lamp and enters “sleep mode.” This conserves electricity, cools the projector, and extends the life of the lamp. If you are done using the projector, unplug the power cord. If you want to start projecting again, press the P Power button. You can turn sleep mode on or off through the Extended menu. See page 64.

Turn off this product when not in use to prolong the life of the projector.

caution

To avoid damaging the projector or lamp, never unplug the power cord when the power light is green or flashing orange.

Shutting Down the Projector

When you’ve finished using the projector, follow the recommended procedure to shut it down:

1.If you’re using a computer, shut it down first; otherwise you may not be able to see your computer’s display to shut it down properly.

2.To turn off the projector, press the P Power button on the projector or remote control.

You see this confirmation message: (If you don’t want to turn it off, press any other button or wait a few seconds until it disappears.)

3.Press the P Power button again. The projector beeps twice, the lamp is turned off, and the power light turns orange.

With Epson’s exclusive Instant Off® technology there’s no cool-down period, so you can pack up and go immediately after turning off the projector.

If you want to turn the projector on again, press the P Power button.

4.Press up on the blue foot release lever and lower the projector to retract the front adjustable foot.

5.Close the A/V Mute slide.

6. Unplug the power cord.

7. Turn off and disconnect any equipment plugged into the projector.

8.If you won’t be using the projector for awhile, store it in the soft case that came with it or in a protective case.
