•The projector will always enter into the [ECO MODE] [OFF] condition for 60 seconds immediately after the projector is turned on. The lamp condition will not be affected even when [ECO MODE] is changed within this time period.

•After a lapse of 45 seconds from when the projector displays a blue, black or logo screen, [ECO MODE] will automatically switch to [ON].

The projector will return to the [OFF] mode once a signal is accepted.

•If the projector becomes overheated in [OFF] mode because of use in a high-temperature room, there may be a case where the [ECO MODE] automatically changes to [ON] mode to protect the projector. This mode is called “forced ECO mode”. When the projector is in [ON] mode, the picture brightness decreases. The LAMP indicator’s steady light indicates the projector is in [ON] mode. When the projector comes back to normal temperature, the [ECO MODE] returns to [OFF] mode.

Thermometer symbol [ ] indicates the [ECO MODE] is automatically set to [ON] mode because the internal temperature is too high.
