Basic Operation

Press the POWER ON-OFF button on the front panel or on the remote control. The POWER indicator turns into orange, and it continues while the cooling fans are operating (for about 4 minutes). The LCD Projection Monitor can be turned on again during this period or after the indicator turns into red.
When the LCD Projection Monitor has cooled down enough, the POWER indicator emits red light. Then you can disconnect the AC power cord.
TO MAINTAIN THE LIFE OF THE LAMP, ONCE YOU TURN YOUR LCD PROJECTION MONITOR ON, WAIT AT LEAST 5 MINUTES BEFORE TURNING IT OFF. DO NOT DISCONNECT AC POWER CORD WHILE COOLING FANS ARE RUNNING OR BEFORE POWER INDICATOR EMITS RED LIGHT. OTHERWISE IT WILL RESULT IN SHORTENING LAMP LIFE.
NOTE:
Do not use the LCD Projection Monitor for more than 24 hours continuously. Turn off the
LCD Projection Monitor at least once in 24 hours and give it a rest. Continuous use may result in shortening the lamp life.
This LCD Projection Monitor monitors internal temperature and automatically controls the
running speed of the cooling fans.
If the WARNING indicator blinks or emits red light, see “Warning Indicator” on page 45,
51.
Press the POWER ON-OFF button on the front panel of the LCD Projection Monitor or the remote control. The cooling fans start to operate. The POWER indicator blinks green rapidly for 15 seconds.

Maintenance and Cleaning
This LCD Projection Monitor uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly. Improper handling may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.
Lamp lifetime may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no
guarantee of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their lifetime in a shorter period of time than other similar lamps.
If the LCD Projection Monitor indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if the LAMP REPLACE
indicator lights up, replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the LCD Projection Monitor has cooled down. ( Follow carefully the instructions in the Lamp Replacement section of this manual. ) Continuous use of the lamp with the LAMP REPLACE indicator lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.
A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its
lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or conditions in which the LCD Projection Monitor and lamp are being used.
IF A LAMP EXPLODES, THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN.
If a lamp explodes, disconnect the LCD Projection Monitor’s AC plug from the AC outlet immediately. Contact an authorized service station for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp. Additionally, check carefully to ensure that there are no broken shards or pieces of glass around the LCD Projection Monitor or coming out from the cooling air circulation holes. Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully. No one should check the inside of the LCD Projection Monitor except those who are authorized trained technicians and who are familiar with LCD Projection Monitor service. Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those who are not appropriately trained to do so, may result in an accident or injury caused by pieces of broken glass.
