Projection Problem Tips

If the projector is not working properly, try turning it off and unplugging it. Then plug it back in and turn it
on.

If this does not solve the problem, check the following:

• The lights on the projector may indicate what the problem is.

• The Help option on the Home screen can display information about common problems, if the projector

is operating.

• The solutions in this manual can help you solve many problems.

If none of these solutions help, you can contact Epson for technical support.
