❹ Changing Eco Mode/Checking Energy-Saving Effect

Using Eco Mode [ECO MODE]

The ECO MODE (NORMAL and ECO) increases light life, while lowering power consumption and cutting down on
CO emissions.
2
Four brightness modes of the light can be selected: [OFF], [AUTO ECO], [NORMAL] and [ECO] modes.
[ECO MODE]
[OFF]
[AUTO ECO]
[NORMAL]
[ECO]
To turn on the [ECO MODE], do the following:
1. Press the ECO Button on the remote control to display [ECO MODE] screen.
2. Press the ECO button again to select a mode you wish.
• Each time the ECO button is pressed, the choices will be changed:
OFF → AUTO ECO → NORMAL → ECO → OFF
TIP:
• The leaf symbol at the bottom of the menu shows the current selection of ECO mode.
NOTE:
• The [ECO MODE] can be changed by using the menu.
Select [SETUP] → [GENERAL] → [LIGHT MODE] → [ECO MODE].
• The l ight hours used can be checked in [USAGE TIME]. Select [INFO.] → [USAGE TIME].
• The projector is always in [NORMAL] for 1 0 seconds after the l ight is turned on. The l ight condition will not be affected even when
[ECO MODE] is changed.
• After a lapse of 1 minute from when the projector displays no-signal guidance, a blue, black or logo screen, [ECO MODE] will automatically
switch to [ECO]. The projector will return to its original setting once a signal is accepted.
• If the projector is overheated in [OFF] mode, there may be a case where the [ECO MODE] automatically changes to [NORMAL] mode to
protect the projector. When the projector is in [NORMAL] mode, the picture brightness decreases. When the projector comes back to normal
temperature, the [ECO MODE] returns to its original setting.
Thermometer symbol [ ] indicates the [ECO MODE] is automatically set to [NORMAL] mode because the internal temperature is too high.
