■ Circuit Protections This projector provides the following circuit protections to operate in safety. If the abnormality occurs inside the pro- jector, it will automatically turn off by operating one of the following protection circuits. ● Fuse A fuse is located inside of the projector. When the POWER indica- tor is not lightning, the fuse may be opened.
Circuit Protections ● Warning temperature and power failure protection The projector will be automatically turned off when the internal temperature of the projector is abnormally high, or the cooling fans stop spinning, or the power supplies in the projector are failed. - If the WARNING indicator is flashing, it may detect the abnormal temperature inside the projector.
■ Lamp Replacement WARNING: ORDER REPLACEMENT LAMP - For continued safety, replace with a lamp assembly of the same Type No. Service Parts No. type. POA-LMP68 610 308 1786 - Allow the projector to cool for at least 45 minutes before you open the lamp cover.
■ Mechanical Disassemblies Mechanical disassemble should be made following procedures in numerical order. Following steps show the basic procedures, therefore unnecessary step may be ignored. Caution: The parts and screws should be placed exactly the same position as the original otherwise it may cause loss of performance and product safety.

Chassis Block Diagrams Principle of Auto-Keystone Correction The unit calculates the angle between the CCD sensor and screen for each vertical and hori- zontal directions. The sensor measures the distance of each area 1 to area 5 and calculates the angle used with the trigonometric function. The projector has a keystone correction table for each angle.
■ Troubleshooting No Power This projector provides a function which can be specified a defective area simply by indicating the LEDs on the con- trol panel. Connect the AC cord and press the Power button once and then check the LED indication. - When all of LED indicators are not lighting, the symptom indicates that the primary power supply circuit does not operate properly.
