Using the Projector
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.
1.
If you’ve connected a computer or laptop and it’s displaying only
through the projector (the computer’s monitor is disconnected or
turned off), shut down the computer first; otherwise you won’t be
able to see your computer’s display if you try turning it off after
the projector.
2.
To turn off the projector, press the red
Power
button on the
projector or remote control. You see a confirmation message. (If
you don’t want to turn it off, press any other button.)
3.
Press the
Power
button again. The power light flashes orange for
about a minute as the projector cools down. When the projector
has cooled, the orange light stays on and the exhaust fan shuts off.
If you want to turn the projector on again, wait until the orange
light stops flashing. Then press the
Power
button.
4.
Replace the lens cap and unplug the power cord.
5.
If you’re using a VCR or other video source, turn it off after you
turn off the projector.
6.
Disconnect all equipment, and store the projector in a protective
case.
