Installation

Connecting to the AC power cord

This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100–240 V AC and it automatically selects the correct input voltage. 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.

The AC outlet should be near this equipment and must be easily accessible.

√ Note: 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. Conrm the AC

plug type with the chart below and proper AC power cord must be used.

Open the lens cap. 3 Press the Power button on the side control or on the remote control. The POWER indicator becomes green and the cooling fans start to operate. The preparation display appears on the screen and the count down starts. 4 If the projector is locked with a PIN code, a PIN

code Input Dialog Box appears. Enter the PIN

code as instructed below.

√ Note:

● When the logo option is set to be "Off” , the logo will not be displayed on the screen.

● When the display option is set to be "Off,” the logo and countdown will not be displayed on the screen.

● During the countdown period, all operations are invalid except shutdown.

Enter a PIN code

Select a number by pressing the ▲▼ buttons, and then press the ► button to x the number

and move the cursor. The number changes to "*".

If you xed an incorrect number, move the cursor

to the number you want to correct by pressing the

◄ button, and then select the correct number by pressing the ▲▼ buttons.

Repeat this step to complete entering a three-digit number. After entering the three-digit number, move the cursor to "Set", then you can start to operate the projector. If you entered an incorrect PIN code, the "PIN code" and the number (***) turn red. Enter the correct PIN code all over again.

Move the cursor to Set, and press OK.

√ Note: The projector will automatically power off within 3 minutes while you input an incorrect PIN code or there is no any operation after turning on the projector.

What is PIN code? PIN (Personal Identification Number) code is a security code that allows the person who knows it to operate the projector. Setting the PIN code

prevents unauthorized use of the projector.

A PIN code consists of a three-digit number. Refer to the PIN code lock function in the Setting Menu on page 50 for locking operation of the projector with your PIN code.

Caution on handling the PIN code

If you forget your PIN code, the projector can no longer be started. Take a special care in setting a new PIN code; write down the number in a column on page 66 of this manual and keep it at hand. Should the PIN code be missing or forgotten, consult your dealer or service center.

Basic operation

Turning off the projector

1 Press the POWER button on the side control or on the remote control, and “Power off? Please press Power key again” appears on the screen.

2 Press the POWER button again to turn off the projector. The POWER indicator starts to

ash red, and the cooling fans keep running.

(You can select the level of the fans’ quietness and running speed.) At this time you can unplug the AC power cord even if the fans are still running.

3 When the projector has cooled down enough to be turned on again, the POWER indicator stops

ashing.

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 stand for about one hour in every 24 hours.

Power off?

Please press Power key again

“Power off? Please press Power key again” disappears after 4 seconds.

√ Note:

● When the Auto Power function is “On” , this projector is turned on automatically by connecting the AC power cord to an AC outlet.(Page 48)

● The running speed of cooling fans is changed according to the temperature inside the projector.

● Do not put the projector in a case before the projector is cooled enough.

● If the WARNING indicator ashes or emits a red light, see “Warning Indicator”.(Page 53)

● While the POWER indicator is ashing, 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.
