of the projector.
A PIN code consists of a four-digit number. Refer to the
PIN code lock function in the Setting Menu on pages 58-
59 for locking operation of the projector with your PIN
code.
CAUTION ON HANDLING PIN CODE
If you forget your PIN code, the projector can no
longer be started. Take special care in setting a
new PIN code; write down the number in a column
on page 86 of this manual and keep it on hand.
Should the PIN code be missing or forgotten,
consult your dealer or service center.
