If you forget the password
If the password function is activated, you will be asked
to enter the six-digit password every time you turn on
the projector. If you enter the wrong password, the
password error message as pictured to the right
displays lasting for three seconds, and the message
'INPUT PASSWORD' follows. You can retry by
entering another six-digit password, or if you did not
record the password in this manual, and you absolutely do not remember it, you can use
the password recall procedure. See "Entering the password recall procedure" on page 30
for details.
If you enter an incorrect password 5 times in succession, the projector will automatically
shut down in a short time.
Entering the password recall procedure
1. Press and hold Auto on the projector or
remote control for 3 seconds. The projector
will display a coded number on the screen.
2. Write down the number and turn off your
projector.
3. Seek help from the local BenQ service center to
decode the number. You may be required to
provide proof of purchase documentation to
verify that you are an authorized user of the
projector.
