( ✳✳✳✳ ) turn red and disappear. Enter a PIN code all over again.
CAUTION ON HANDLING PIN CODE
If you forget your PIN code, the projector can no
longer be started. Take special care in setting a new
PIN code; write down the number in a column on
page 60 of this manual and keep it at hand. Should
the PIN code be missing or forgotten, consult your
