After you turn on your projector, ensure that the computer
or video source is turned on and that your lens cap is re-
moved.
NOTE: When no signal is available, a blue or black screen is dis-
played.
When the projector displays a blue or black screen, the projector will
automatically switch to the Eco mode.
The projector will return to the Normal mode once a signal is con-
nected.
NOTE: If you turn on the projector immediately after the lamp is turned
off or when the temperature is high, the fans run without displaying
an image for some time and then the projector will display the im-
age.
CAUTION:
The projector cannot be turned off for 60 seconds af-
ter the lamp is turned on and while the POWER indica-
tor is blinking green.
• Do not turn off the AC power during this period.
Doing so could cause premature lamp failure.
