NOTE ON THE POWER CORD
AC power cord must meet the requirements of the country where you use the projector.
Confirm the AC plug type with the chart below and a proper AC power cord must be
used.
If the supplied AC power cord does not match your AC outlet, contact your sales dealer.
Installation
To power cord
connector on your
projector.
Projector sideAC outlet side
Ground
To the AC outlet.(120 V AC)
For Continental EuropeFor the U.S.A. and Canada
This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100-120 V or 200-240
V AC and it automatically selects a correct input voltage. It is
designed to work with the single-phase power systems having a
grounded neutral conductor. To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
do not plug into any other type of power system.
If you are not sure of the type of power being supplied, consult
your authorized dealer or service station. Connect the projector
with all peripheral equipment before turning on the projector. (See
pages 15 and 16 for connection.) 
CAUTION
For safety, unplug the AC power cord when the projector is not
in use. When the projector is connected to an outlet with the
AC power cord, it is in stand-by mode and consumes a little
electric power.
Connecting the AC Power Cord
Connect the AC power cord (supplied) to the
projector.
The AC outlet must be near this equipment and
must be easily accessible.

TO MAINTAIN THE LIFE OF LAMP, ONCE YOU TURN
THE PROJECTOR ON, WAIT AT LEAST 5 MINUTES
BEFORE TURNING IT OFF.
DO NOT UNPLUG THE AC POWER CORD WHILE THE
COOLING FANS ARE RUNNING OR BEFORE THE
POWER INDICATOR STOPS BLINKING. OTHERWISE IT
WILL RESULT IN SHORTENING THE LAMP LIFE.
3When the projector has cooled down enough to be turned on
again, the POWER indicator stops blinking and turns to
steady red. Then you can unplug the AC power cord.
The message disappears after 4 seconds.
✔Note:
• You cannot turn on the projector during the cooling period with the POWER
indicator blinking red. Turn it on after the POWER indicator stops blinking and turns
to steady red.
• When the On start function is on, the projector is turned on automatically by
connecting the AC power cord to an AC outlet. (See page 41 for the On start
function.) 
• Do not operate the projector continuously without rest. Continuous use may result in
shortening the lamp life. Turn off the projector and rest it for about an hour in every
24 hours.   
• The running speed of cooling fans is changed according to the temperature inside
the projector. 
• If the WARNING indicator blinks or turns red, see “Warning Indicator” on page 45.
