Problem Solving
This section explains how to interpret the projector’s status lights, solve problems with the
picture and remote control, and contact technical support.
What To Do When the Lights Come On
or Flash
The lights on top of the projector indicate the projector’s
status and let you know when a problem occurs.
If the projector isn’t working correctly, first press the
P
Power button or the Off button on the remote
control, let the projector cool down, turn off the power
switch on the back, and unplug the power cord. Then
plug the power cord back in and turn on the projector.
If this doesn’t solve the problem, check the status lights
on top of the projector.
