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 pages 59-60 for 
locking operation of the projector with your PIN code.
Enter a PIN code
Use the Point ▲▼ buttons to enter a number. Press the 
Point ► button 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 ◄ button 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 83 of this manual and keep it 
on hand. Should the PIN code be missing or 
forgotten, consult your dealer or service center.
After the OK icon disappears, you can operate 
the projector.  
PIN Code Input Dialog Box
Note:
  • If the PIN code number is not entered within 
three minutes after the PIN code dialog box 
appeared, the projector will be turned off 
automatically.
  • The "1234" is set as the initial PIN code at 
the factory.

3When the projector has cooled down enough, the 
POWER indicator stops blinking and you can turn on 
the projector. 
Note:
  • When the On start function is set to 
On, the projector 
will be turned on automatically by connecting the AC 
power cord to an AC outlet (p.57).
  • The running speed of cooling fans is changed according 
to the temperature inside the projector.
  • Do not put the projector in a case before the projector is 
cooled enough.
  • If the WARNING indicator blinks or lights red, see 
"WARNING indicator" on page 64.
  • While the POWER indicator is blinking, the lamp is 
being cooled down and the projector cannot be turned 
on. Wait until the POWER indicator stops blinking to turn 
on the projector again.
  •  The fan rotation will terminate directly if the AC power 
cord is unplugged immediately after the projector is 
turned off.
  •  The projector can be turned on after the POWER 
indicator turns red. The waiting time to restart will be 
shortened when the normal power-off processing for fan 
cooling is completed, compared with the time the AC 
power cord is immediately unplugged after the power-
off. 
Basic Operation
DO NOT OPERATE THE PROJECTOR 
CONTINUOUSLY WITHOUT REST. CONTINUOUS 
USE MAY RESULT IN SHORTENING THE LAMP 
LIFE. TURN OFF THE PROJECTOR AND LET
