Installation
Connecting the AC Power Cord
This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100–120 V or
200–240 V AC and it automatically selects the correct input
voltage. It is designed to work with 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 the projector on.
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.
Connect the AC power cord (supplied) to the
projector.
The AC outlet must be near this equipment
and must be easily accessible.
NOTE ON POWER CORD
AC power cord must meet the requirements of the country where you use th\
e 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 you\
r sales dealer.

selected the last time and the lamp control status icon
(see page 46) appear on the screen.
If the projector is locked with a PIN code, PIN code
input dialog box will appear. Enter the PIN code as
instructed below.
Complete peripheral connections (with a computer,
VCR, etc.) before turning on the projector.  
What is PIN code?
PIN (Personal Identification Number) code is a security code
that allows the person who knows it to operate the projector.
Setting a PIN code prevents unauthorized use of the
projector.
A PIN code consists of a four-digit number. Refer to the PIN
code lock function in the Setting Menu on page 48 for locking
operation of the projector with your PIN code.
Enter a PIN code
Use the Point edbuttons to enter a number. Press the Point
8button to fix the number and move the red frame pointer to
the next box. The number changes to “ ✳.” If you fixed an
incorrect number, use the Point 
7button to move the pointer
to the number you want to correct, and then enter the correct
number.
Repeat this step to complete entering a four-digit number.
After entering the four-digit number, move the pointer to
“Set.” Press the SELECT button so that you can start to
operate the projector.
If you entered an incorrect PIN code, “PIN code” and the
number ( ✳✳✳✳) will turn red for a moment. Enter the correct
PIN code all over again.
CAUTION ON HANDLING PIN CODE
If you forget your PIN code, the projector can no
longer be started. Take a special care in setting a
new PIN code; write down the number in a
column on page 65 of this manual and keep it at
hand. Should the PIN code be missing or
forgotten, consult your dealer or service center.
