The message disappears after 4 seconds.

✔Note:

• The projector cannot be turned on during the cooling period with the POWER indicator blinking red. You can turn it on again after the POWER indicator lights red.

• When the On start function is on, this projector is turned on automatically by connecting the AC power cord to an AC outlet. (See page 41 for the On start function.)

• Do not operate the projector continuously without rest. Continuous use may result in shortening the lamp life. Turn off the projector and give it a rest about an hour in every 24 hours.

• This projector monitors internal temperature and automatically controls the running speed of the cooling fans.
