Connectin� the AC Power Cord
This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100–120 V
or 200–240 V AC and it automatically selects the correct
input voltage. It is designed to work with single-phase power
systems 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.
Installation
CAUTION
The AC outlet must 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 the
AC power cord, it is in stand-by mode and consumes a
little electric power.
Connect the AC power cord (supplied) to the
projector.
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.

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 four-digit number. Refer to the PIN
code lock function in the Setting Menu on pages 47–48 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 68 of this manual and keep it on hand.
Should the PIN code be missing or forgotten, consult
your dealer or service center.
After the OK icon
disappears, you can
operate the projector.

• When the Input Search function is set on
On1 or On2, the input signal will be searched
automatically (p.44).
• When the Logo select function is "Off,” the
logo will not be displayed on the screen
(p.42).
• When the "Countdown off" or "Off" is selected
in the Display function, the countdown will not
be shown on the screen (p.41).
• During the countdown period, all operations
are invalid.
• If the PIN code number is not entered within
three minutes after the PIN code dialog box

Power off?
Turnin� Off the Projector
Press the POWER ON/STAND-BY button on the
1
remote control, and “Power off?” appears on the
screen.
Press the POWER ON/STAND-BY button again to turn
2

red, and the cooling fans keep running. (You can select
the level of the fans’ quietness and running speed. See
page 49.) At this time you can unplug the AC power
cord even if the fans are still running.
When the projector has cooled down enough to be
3
turned on again, the POWER indicator stops blinking.
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 REST. CONTINUOUS
USE MAY RESULT IN SHORTENING THE LAMP
LIFE. TURN OFF THE PROJECTOR AND LET
STAND FOR ABOUT AN HOUR IN EVERY 24
HOURS.
Basic Operation
“Power off” disappears after 4 seconds.
Note:
• When the On start function is “On,” this projector is turned
on automatically by connecting the AC power cord to an
AC outlet (p. 46).
• 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 blinks or emits a red light, see
“Warning Indicator” on page 51.
• While the POWER indicator is blinking, the lamp is being
cooled down and the projector cannot be turned on. Wait
until the POWER indicator stops blinking 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, compared with the time the AC power cord is
immediately unplugged after the power-off.
