Instant Shut Down
You don't want to wait for the cooling fan to cease operation after
powering off the projector. You can unplug the power cord right after
the projector is powered off.

Don't shut down the projector immediately after the lamp lights up
because the lamp's life may be shortened.
• Don't turn the projector back on right after shutting it down
because the lamp's life may be shortened. (Wait about 10 minutes
before turning the projector back on.)
• Before shutting down the projector, be sure to close the menu
screen. If you shut down the projector without closing the menu,
the setting data of the menu may not be saved.

Caution:
• After using the projector, wait one minute for the air outlet fans to
stop in normal use. Then unplug the power cord from the wall out-
let.

• The air outlet fans rotate faster as the temperature around the pro-
jector rises.

ages may persist on the screen.

• When this projector is connected to a laptop computer, there may
be times when images may not be projected. When it occurs, set
the computer so that it can output signals externally. The proce-
dure varies across computers in use. See the instruction manual
of your computer.
