Installation
Connecting the AC power cord
This projector uses nominal input voltages of
100–240V AC and it automatically applies to different input voltages. It is designed to work with a single-phase power system having a grounded neutral conductor. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not plug into any other type of power system. If you are not sure of the type of power being supplied, consult your authorized dealer or service station. Connect the projector with all peripheral equipment before turning it on.
Note:
The AC outlet should be near this equipment and must be easily accessible.
Connect the AC power cord (supplied) to the projector.
Note:
For safety, unplug the AC power cord when the projector is not in use. When the projector is connected to an outlet with AC power cord, it is in stand-by mode and consumes a little electric power.
Note on the power cord
AC power cord must meet the requirements of the country where you use the projector. Confirm the AC plug type with the chart below and proper AC power cord must be used. If the supplied AC power cord does not match your AC outlet, contact your sales dealer.

21
Basic operation
Turn off the projector
1.Press the POWER button on the top control or on the remote control, and "Power off?" appears on the screen.
2.Then, press the POWER button again in 4 seconds. The POWER indicator starts to flash red, and the cooling fans keep running
(You can select the fan noise and running speed). Now you can unplug the AC power cord after the fans stop running. Otherwise, the service life of the projector will be affected or the projector will can not be turned on or turn on abnormal.
3When the projector has cooled down enough to be turned on again, the POWER indicator stops flashing.
To maintain the lamp life, once you turn the projector on, wait at least 5 minutes before turning it off.
Do not operate the projector continuously without reset. Continuous use may result in shortening the lamp life. Turn off the projector and let it standby for about an hour in every 24 hours.
Note:
●When the On start function is “On” , this projector is turned on automatically by connecting the AC power cord to an AC outlet .
●The running speed of cooling fans is changed according to the temperature inside the projector.
●Do not put the projector in a case before it is cooled enough.
●If the POWER indicator flashes or emits a red light, see page 77.
●While the POWER indicator is flashing, the lamp is being cooled down and the projector cannot be turned on. Wait until the POWER indicator turns red to turn on the projector again.
●The fan rotation will terminate directly if the AC power cord is unplugged immediately after the projector is turned off.
●The projector can be turned on after the POWER indicator turns red. The waiting time to restart will be shortened when the normal power-off processing for fan cooling is completed, comparing with the time the AC power cord is immediately unplugged after the power-off.
Power off ?
“Power off ? ” disappears after 4 seconds.
