is warmed up, the light stops flashing and turns blue.
Warning: Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is on. This can damage your eyes and is
especially dangerous for children.
If you do not see a projected image right away, try the following:
• Verify the lens cover is open all the way.
• Turn on the connected computer or video device.
• Insert a DVD or other video media and press the play button, if necessary.
• Change the screen output from the computer when using a laptop.
