Shutting Down the Projector

When you've finished using the projector, follow the
recommended procedure to shut it down. This extends the life
of the lamp and protects the projector from possible
overheating.
Note: When the projector has not received any input signals for 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 button.
