Turning Off the Projector

1

Press the POWER ON-OFF button on the top control or on the

 

remote control, and a message "Power off?" appears on the

 

screen.

2

Press the POWER ON-OFF button again to turn off the

 

projector. The POWER indicator starts to flash red, and it

continues while the cooling fans are operating (for about 90 seconds).

3

When the projector has cooled down enough to be turned on

 

again, the POWER indicator lights red. Then you can disconnect

the AC power cord.

TO MAINTAIN THE LIFE OF LAMP, ONCE YOU TURN PROJECTOR ON, WAIT AT LEAST 5 MINUTES BEFORE TURNING IT OFF.

DO NOT DISCONNECT AC POWER CORD WHILE COOLING FANS ARE RUNNING OR BEFORE POWER INDICATOR LIGHTS RED. OTHERWISE IT WILL RESULT IN SHORTENING LAMP LIFE.

The message disappears after 4 seconds.

NOTE

The projector cannot be turned on during the cooling period with the POWER indicator flashing red. You can turn it on again after the POWER indicator lights red.

When the On start function is on, this projector is turned on automatically by connecting the AC power cord to an AC outlet. (See page 39 for the On start function.)

Do not use the projector for more than 24 hours continuously. Turn off the projector at least once in 24 hours and give it a rest. Continuous use may result in shortening the lamp lifetime.

This projector monitors internal temperature and automatically controls the running speed of the cooling fans.

If the WARNING indicator flashes or lights red, see “Warning Indicator” on page 41.
