The lamp unit will switch off and the picture will stop being projected. (The power indicator on the projector will illuminate orange.)

%Wait until the power indicator on the projector illuminates red (until the cooling fan stops).

Do not in any way cut power to the projector while the cooling fan is still operating. Be careful not to switch off the MAIN POWER switch of the projector, unplug the mains lead from the electrical outlet or turn off in-line switches such as tabletop power switches.

&Press the MAIN POWER switch to the “O” side to turn off the power.

NOTE:

BAfter the power is turned off, the lamp unit will take some time to cool down. If you turn the power back on again before the lamp unit has cooled down, the lamp unit may not turn on straight away, but it will turn on automatically after a short period. (During this time, the power indicator on the projector will flash orange.)

BWhen the projector is in standby mode (the power indicator on the projector is illuminated red), the projector will still draw a maximum 3.5 W of power, even when the cooling fan has stopped.

BIf the MAIN POWER switch is accidentally turned off while the projector is being used, the lamp unit may not turn on straight away after the power is turned back on. In such cases, the lamp unit will turn back on automatically after a short period. (During this time, the power indicator on the projector will flash green.)

BA tinkling sound may be heard while the power indicator is turned off, but this is not a sign of a malfunction.

BYou can also turn off the power by pressing the POWER button twice.

BWhen the WEB STANDBY is set to “ON”, the cooling fan operates and the power indicator on the projector flashes slowly in red and the projector draw a maximum 43 W of power. (page 45) (PT-L780NTE only)

BDo not turn off the power while the SD card is being accessed and “SD card is in use.is displayed on the screen. (PT-L780NTE only)
