turned back on.

short while, in order to expel excess internal heat. If you are in a hurry, there is
no problem with unplugging the power cord or turning off the main power switch

Note
•The projector consumes about 18W of power in standby. We recommend that you unplug
the power cord or turn off the main power switch if you will not be using the projector for
an extended period.
PRECAUTION
•If the power cord is unplugged before cooling is complete, give the lamp time (about 5
minutes) to cool before plugging it back in. If the lamp overheats, it may fail to light, and
its lifetime will be shortened.

CAUTION

•Do not look into the lens while the lamp is on. The strong light from the lamp may cause
damage to your eyes or sight.
•Do not block the air intake or exhaust. Doing so could cause a fire due to internal overheating.
• Do not place your hands, face, or other objects near the air exhaust. Doing so could cause
burns, deform/break the object.

■ Removing the lens cover

Be sure to remove the lens cover when the power is
turned on. If it is left on, it could become deformed due
to heat.
