Switching on/off the projector
38 - ENGLISH
Basic Operation
Switching off the projector
1) Press the power standby < > button.
▶
z
The [POWER OFF(STANDBY)] screen is
displayed.
2) Use
◀▶
to select [OK], and press the
<ENTER> button.
(Or press the power standby < >
button again.)
▶
z
Projection of the image will stop, and the power
indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> on the
projector lights in orange.
(The fan keeps running.)
3) Wait until the power indicator <ON
(G)/STANDBY (R)> of the projector
lights in red (and the fan stops) for
approximately 170 seconds.
4) Press the <OFF> side of the <MAIN
POWER> switch to turn off the power.
Note
▶
z
Do not turn on the power and project images
immediately after turning the projector off.
Turning on the power while the lamp is still hot may
shorten the lamp life.
z
The lamp indicators will not light even if the power
is switched on for about 75 seconds after the
projector is switched off and the luminous lamp
cooling has started. The indicators may not light
when the power is switched on even after this time.
In such a case, turn the power on again after the
power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> lights in
red.
▶
z
The projector consumes power even when the
power standby < > button is pressed and the
power is switched off if the projector’s main
power is on.
(when [STANDBY MODE] is set to [NORMAL])
When [STANDBY MODE] (
page 68) is set to
[ECO] on the menu, the power consumption during
standby can be conserved.
Direct power off function
Even if the <MAIN POWER> switch is <OFF> during
projection or immediately after the luminous lamp is
turned off, the electricity stored in the room will drive
the fan and cool the luminous lamp. When mounting
on the ceiling or other environment where the
projector <MAIN POWER> switch cannot easily be
turned <OFF>, the power can be shut down directly
from the power breaker. This method is safe in the
event of a blackout or if the power cord is removed
directly after the projector is switched off.
Note
z
If the power was shut down directly from the power
circuit breaker during projection the last time that
the projector was used, the power indicator <ON
(G)/STANDBY (R)> will light in green a while after
the power circuit breaker is turned on and then
transition to image projection.
z
It may take more time than normal to project the
next time that the power is turned on after direct
power off is used to cool.
z
When packing for shipment or storage, ensure that
the fan is stopped.
