     cord after the fans stop running. Otherwise,  
     the service life of the projector will be


Note:
● When the On start function is “On” , this 
   projector is turned on automatically by 
      connecting the AC power cord to an AC outlet .
● The running speed of cooling fans is changed       
   according to the temperature inside the 
   projector.
●  Do not put the projector in a case before it is 
   cooled enough.
● If the POWER indicator flashes or emits a 
   red light, see page 77.
● While the POWER indicator is flashing, the  
   lamp is being cooled down and the projector 
   cannot be turned on. Wait until the POWER 
      indicator turns red 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, comparing with the time the AC 
      power cord is immediately unplugged after the 
   power-off. To maintain the lamp life, once you turn 
the projector on, wait at least 5 minutes 
before turning it off.
Do not operate the projector continuously 
without reset. Continuous use may result 
in shortening the lamp life. Turn off the 
projector and let it standby for about an 
hour in every 24 hours.
