After you turn on your projector, ensure that the com-
puter or video source is turned on and that your lens
cap is removed.
NOTE: When no signal is available, a blue or black screen is dis-
played.
When the projector displays a blue or black screen, the projector
will automatically switch to the Eco mode.
The projector will return to the Normal mode once a signal is con-
nected.
NOTE: If you turn on the projector immediately after the lamp is
turned off or when the temperature is high, the fans run without
displaying an image for some time and then the projector will dis-
play the image.
CAUTION:
The projector cannot be turned off while the POWER
indicator is blinking green.
• Do not turn off the AC power during this period.
Doing so could cause premature lamp failure.
