TO MAINTAIN THE LIFE OF THE LAMP, ONCE YOU

When the projector has cooled down enough to be turned on
again, the POWER indicator emits red light. Then you can
disconnect the AC power cord.
The message disappears after 4 seconds.
✔Note:
• The projector cannot be turned on during the cooling period with the POWER
indicator blinking red. You can turn it on again after the POWER indicator emits red
light.
• Do not operate the projector continuously without rest. Continuous use may result
in shortening the lamp life. Turn off the projector and give it a rest about an hour in
every 24 hours.
• This projector monitors internal temperature and automatically controls the
running speed of the cooling fans.
• If the WARNING indicator blinks or emits red light, see “Warning Indicator” on page
45.
