Turnng On the Projector By Applyng Computer Sgnal [AUTO POWER ON(COMP)]
When the projector is in Standby mode, applying a computer signal from a computer connected to the COMPUTER1 
IN input will power on the projector and simultaneously project the computer’s image.
This functionality eliminates the need to always use the POWER button on the remote control or the projector cabinet 
to power on the projector.
To use this function, first connect a computer to the projector and the\
 projector to an active AC input.
NOTE: 
• Disconnecting a computer signal from the computer will not power off the projector. We recommend using this function in com
-
bination of the AUTO POWER OFF function.
•  This function will not be available under the following conditions:
- when a component signal is applied to the COMPUTER1 IN connector
-  when a Sync on Green RGB signal or composite sync signal is applied
-  when [POWER-SAVING] is selected for [STANDBY MODE]
•  To enable the AUTO POWER ON (COMP1) after turning off the projector, wait 3 minutes and input a computer signal.
  If a computer signal is still present when the projector is turned off, the AUTO POWER ON (COMP1) will not work and the projector 
remains in standby mode.
Enablng Power Management [AUTO POWER OFF]
When this option is selected you can enable the projector to automatically turn off (at the selected time: 5min., 10min., 
20min., 30min.) if there is no signal received by any input or if no operation is performed.
Selectng Default Source [DEFAULT SOURCE SELECT]
You can set the projector to default to any one of its inputs each time the projector is turned on.
LAST  ...................................Sets the projector to default to the previous or last active input each time the projector is turned

 Replacing the Lamp
When the lamp reaches the end of its life, the LAMP indicator in the cabinet will blink red. Even though the lamp may 
still be working, replace the lamp to maintain the optimal projector performance. After replacing the lamp, be sure to 
clear the lamp hour meter. (→ page 75)
 CAUTION
• DO NOT TOUCH THE LAMP immediately after it has been used. It will be extremely hot. Turn the projector off, 
wait 30 seconds, turn off the main power switch and then disconnect the power cable. Allow at least one hour for 
the lamp to cool before handling.
•  DO NOT REMOVE ANY SCREWS except one lamp cover screw and two lamp housing screws. You could receive 
an electric shock.
•  Do not break the glass on the lamp housing.
  Keep finger prints off the glass surface on the lamp housing. Leaving finger prints on the glass surface might cause 
an unwanted shadow and poor picture quality.
•  The projector will turn off and go into standby mode when you continue to use the projector for another 100 hours 
after the lamp has reached the end of its life. If this happens, be sure to replace the lamp. If you continue to use 
the lamp after the lamp reaches the end of its life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass may be scattered 
in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury. If this happens, contact your NEC 
dealer for lamp replacement.
