Basic operation

Power-on 

1.

Turn on the device connected to the projector first. 

2.

Plug the power cord in the wall outlet. 

The POWER indicator lights up. 

If the power cord is unplugged from the wall outlet before the 
projector is cooled down completely after use, the fans may 
start rotating when the power cord is plugged in next time 
and the POWER button may not function. In this case, wait 
for the fans to stop and press the POWER button to light the 
indicator. 

3.

Press the POWER button on the control panel or the ON button 
on the remote control. 

It may take about one minute for the lamp to light up. 

The lamp occasionally fails to light up. Wait a few minutes 
and try to light the lamp again. 

After the POWER button is pressed, the image may flicker 
before the lamp becomes stable. This is not a product mal-
function. 

Regardless of the setting of LAMP MODE in the INSTALLA-
TION menu, the STANDARD lamp mode is activated by 
default. The LAMP MODE is set to either STANDARD or 
LOW depending on the setting last selected, and you cannot 
switch the LAMP MODE in about one minute after the lamp 
is on.

Important: 

Do not cover the lens with the lens cap while the lamp is on. Do 
not strip off the aluminum sheet inside the lens cap.

The projector starts warming up when the POWER button is 
pressed. During the warm-up process, images may appear dark 
and no commands are accepted. 

By blinking red, the STATUS indicator indicates that the lamp 
should be replaced soon. Replace the lamp when the STATUS 
indicator blinks red. (See page 27 and 30.) 

Images may not be projected with good quality in an extremely hot 
or cold environment. (This is not a product malfunction.) 

4.

Adjust the focus by turning the focus ring. 

5.

Choose your desired external input source using  the COM-
PUTER or VIDEO button.

The input source is switched from VIDEO to COMPUTER at 
the press of the COMPUTER button on the control panel.

The input source is switched between VIDEO and S-VIDEO 
at every press of the VIDEO button on the control panel. 

The projector automatically selects the appropriate signal 
format. The selected signal format is displayed on the 
screen. 

The COMPUTER and VIDEO buttons don’t function while 
the menu is being displayed. 

When COMPUTER is chosen as the source, images sup-
plied from the computer may flicker. Press the 

W

 or 

X

 button 

on the remote control to reduce flicker, if it occurs. 

To avoid permanently imprinting a fixed image onto your pro-
jector, please do not display the same stationary images for 
long period.

6.

Adjust the image size by turning the zoom ring.

If necessary, adjust the focus and zoom again.

When fine streaks are seen on projected images

This is due to interference with the screen surface and is not a mal-
function. Replace the screen or displace the focus a little.
