recommended procedure to shut it down. This extends the life
of the lamp and protects the projector from possible
overheating.
Note

30 minutes, it automatically turns off the projector lamp and enters
"sleep mode." This conserves electricity, cools the projector, and
extends the life of the lamp. If you are done using the projector,
unplug the power cord. If you want to start projecting again, press
the P button.
