About Cool Down mode
Cool down mode is when the heated lamp cools down for
about 90s after projection.  This function is to prevent heat
from the heated lamp from causing damages and deforma-
tions to the internal components of the projector. It also pre-
v ents lamp breakage and shortened lamp life.
The Cool down mode is indicated by the blinking STAND
BY indicator. When in the cool down mode, pressing the
OPERATE button will not turn on the projector.
After the cool down process is completed, it will change to
the stand by mode automatically.
Note
Please do not pull out the plug from the power outlet when
in the cool down mode. Please also do not block the ex-
haust vents by standing the projector or laying it on its sides.
