30 Using the Projector
Shutting Down the Projector
When you’ve finished using the projector, follow this procedure to
shut it down. This extends the life of the lamp and protects the
projector from possible overheating.
1. If you’re using a computer, shut it down first.
2. To turn off the projector, press the
Power
button on the
projector or remote control. You see a confirmation message. (If
you don’t want to turn it off, press any other button.)
3. Press the
Power
button again. The power light flashes orange for
about 45 seconds as the projector cools down. When it has
cooled, the orange light stays on and the fan shuts off.
If you want to turn the projector on again, wait until the orange
light stops flashing. Then press the
Power
button.
4. Replace the lens cap and unplug the power cord.
5. Retract the front feet as shown.
6. If you’re using a VCR or other video source, turn it off after you
turn off the projector.
7. Disconnect all equipment, and store the projector in the soft case
that came with it or in a protective case.
note
When the projector has not
received any input signals for
0 minutes, it automatically
turns off the projector lamp
and enters “sleep mode.” This
conserves electricity, cools the
rojector, and extends the life
of the lamp. If you are done
using the projector, unplug
the power cord. If you want
to start projecting again, press
the
Power
button.
