If you’re projecting from a computer and you see a New Hardware Wizard message saying that it has found a plug- and-play monitor, click Cancel.

If the image is upside-down or reversed, you need to change the Projection option in the Setting menu. See the User’s Guide for more information.

If a projected image fails to appear, see “What To Do If You See a Blank Screen” below for help.

Once you see your image, see page 8 for instructions on focusing and making other image adjustments.

Turning Off the Projector

The light continues flashing orange until the projector cools down. When the projector has cooled, the power light stays orange and the exhaust fan shuts off.

4.If you want to turn the projector on again, wait until the light stops flashing red. Then press the Power button.

5.If you will not be using the projector for an extended period of time, make sure the power light is orange, then turn off the main switch on the back of the projector.
