■Connecting to Analog Video Output Terminal (Analog 
Connection)
Connecting with a component cable (Input signal type: [Component] P53)
Component video signals from AV equipment can be supplied to the projector by 
connecting the component cable to the projector’s COMPONENT terminal.
Use a commercially available component cable (not included) that fits the terminal 
type of the AV equipment to create a relay connection.
• Use an audio cable without a built-in resistor. Using an audio cable with a built-in 
resistor will reduce the audio volume.
• The AUDIO IN terminal can be changed in the Audio in terminal select screen (P153).

Plugging the Projector In
Connect the power cord to the projector and plug it in.
Connect the ground terminal on the power plug to ground. Not doing so

be affected by electromagnetic interference and impair TV and radio 
reception.
• Fully insert the power cord plug into the socket.
• After turning off the projector, wait at least 5 minutes before turning it on again. It may 
shorten the lamp life if you turn on the projector immediately after turning it off.
Unplug the power cord when the projector is not in use.
