• When plugging in or unplugging the supplied power cable, make sure that the main power switch is pushed to the off () po-
sition. Failure to do so may cause damage to the projector.
• The projector has a feature to prevent itself from being used by unauthorized individuals. To use this feature, register a key-

• Do not try to remove the lens cap by pulling on the
string. Doing so can cause damage.

Main Power switch to the on position ( I ).
• The projector will go into standby mode. When in stand-
by mode, the POWER indicator will light orange and the
STATUS indicator will light green.

mode, press the POWER or POWER (ON) button for
a minimum of 2 seconds when the STATUS indicator
