Unplug the power cords of both the projector and external equipment from the AC outlet before connecting cables.

Connecting 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 the projector on.

CAUTION

For safety, 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.

Installation

Connect the AC power cord (supplied) to the projector. The AC outlet must be near this equipment and must be easily accessible.

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 supplied the AC power cord does not match your AC outlet, contact your sales dealer.

If you entered an incorrect PIN code, “PIN code” and the number (✳✳✳✳) will turn red for a moment. Enter the correct PIN code all over again.

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 a 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 page 51 for locking operation of the projector with your PIN code.

After the OK icon disappears, you can operate the projector.

✔Notes:

• When the Logo select function is set to “Off,” the logo will not be shown on the screen (p.50).

• When the “Countdown off” or “Off” is selected in the Display function, the countdown will not be shown on the screen (p.52).

• During the countdown period, all operations are invalid.

• If the correct PIN code number is not entered within three minutes after the PIN code dialog box appeared, the projector will be turned off automatically.

• The “1234” is set as the initial PIN code at the factory.

CAUTION ON HANDLING 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 76 of this manual and keep it at hand. Should the PIN code be missing or forgotten, consult your dealer or service center.
