3When the projector has cooled down enough, the POWER indicator stops blinking and you can turn on the projector. 
Note: • When the Direct power on function is set to On, the projector will be turned on automatically by connecting the AC power cord to an AC outlet (p.56). • 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 indicator” on page 65. • 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. 
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.
Note:    When using the Direct Power Off function, you can not restart the projector immediately after the power is disconnected. If the external power supply is suddenly cut off, the fans stop immediately. The lamp remains high temperature and needs to be cooled.
