TO MAINTAIN THE LIFE OF THE LAMP, ONCE

YOU TURN THE PROJECTOR ON, WAIT AT

LEAST FIVE MINUTES BEFORE TURNING IT

OFF.

DO NOT OPERATE THE PROJECTOR

CONTINUOUSLY WITHOUT REST.

CONTINUOUS USE MAY RESULT IN

SHORTENING THE LAMP LIFE. TURN OFF THE

PROJECTOR AND LET STAND FOR ABOUT AN

HOUR IN EVERY 24 HOURS.

Notes:

When the On start function is set to “On,” the projector will be turned on automatically by connecting the AC power cord to an AC outlet (p.53).

The running speed of cooling fans is changed according to the temperature inside the projector.

Do not put the projector in a case before the projector is cooled enough.

If the WARNING indicator blinks or lights red, see “Warning Indicators” on page 62.

While the POWER indicator is blinking, the lamp is being cooled down and the projector cannot be turned on. Wait until the POWER indicator stops blinking to turn on the projector again.

The fan rotation will terminate directly if the AC power cord is unplugged immediately after the projector is turned off.

The projector can be turned on after the POWER indicator turns red. The waiting time to restart will be shortened when the normal power-off processing for fan cooling is completed, compared with the time the AC power cord is immediately unplugged after the power- off.
