Common Problems & Solutons (

.)

Problem

Check These Items

Does not turn on

• Check that the power cord is plugged in and that the power button on the projector cabinet or the remote control is on. See

pages

23

and

24

.

• Ensure that the lamp cover or the lamp is installed correctly. See page

71

.

• Check to see if the projector has overheated. If there is insufficient ventilation around the projector or if the room where you are

presenting is particularly warm, move the projector to a cooler location.

• Check to see if you continue to use the projector for another 100 hours after the lamp has reached the end of its life. If so, re-

place the lamp.

• The lamp may fail to light. Wait a full minute and then turn on the power again.

• The lamp has reached the end of its usable life. Replace the lamp.

• Set [Fan mode] to [High altitude] when using the projector at altitudes approximately 5500 feet/1600 meters or higher. Using

the projector at altitudes approximately 5500 feet/1600 meters or higher without setting to [High altitude] can cause the

projector to overheat and the projector could shut down. Also the projector could not turn on due to the increased temperature

of the lamp after power off. If these happen, wait a couple minutes and turn on the projector.

• Also when the lamp is turned off, the projector internal temperature is hot. If the power is turned on before the projector has

cooled down, the fan will run a short time before the lamp will turn on.

• If any of the above is not the cause of the problem, turn off the main power and disconnect the power cord. After allowing 5

minutes, plug the power cord and turn on the main power.

the notebook PC. In most cases signal cannot be output from RGB output unless the notebook PC is turned on after connecting

with the projector.

* If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer's screen-saver or power man-

agement software.

• See also the next page.

Picture suddenly becomes dark • Check if the projector is in the Forced cooling operation because of too high ambient temperature. If this is the case, lower the

internal temperature of the projector by selecting [High] for [Fan mode]. See page
