Turning the power off
1
Press the ON/STANDBY button.
A message appears on the screen, confirming that you wish to shut off the power. This
message will disappear after a moment. (This operation is no longer valid after the
message disappears.)

Press the ON/STANDBY button once again.
When the setting of beep sound is [On], the projector beeps, and the screen turns off,
but the internal cooling fan continues to operate. Then, the projector goes into standby
mode.
During cooling, the ON/STANDBY indicator flashes. While the
indicator is flashing, the power can not be turned back on. At this
point of time, it does not matter even if you unplug the power
cord.
Note
• The projector consumes about 10W of power in standby. We recommend that you unplug
the power cord if you will not be using the projector for an extended period.
PRECAUTION
• If you turn the power on before cooling is complete, give the lamp time (about 5 minutes)
to cool before plugging it back in. If the lamp overheats, it may fail to light.
Turning the power on and off (Continued)
LCD Panels
LCD panels wear out. In order to prolong the lifetime of your LCD panel, take the
following precautions.
• In order to extend the lifetime of the LCD panel, always turn off the power when not in
use, and make sure that the lamp is off. Keeping the lamp off is also very effective at
saving electricity.
• If the air filter becomes dirty and clogged, the projector’s internal temperature will rise,
shortening the lifetime of the LCD panel and causing malfunctions. Clean the air filter
from time to time
p.46
, and replace it periodically. Contact the store where you
purchased your projector, or your local Service Station for replacement air filters.
