Turning Off the Projector
When you’ve finished using the projector, follow the
recommended procedure to shut it down.
Note:
When sleep mode is enabled and the projector has not received any
input signals for the number of minutes specified in the Extended
menu (from 1 to 30), the projector automatically turns off the 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, plug it in and press the P
Power button. You can turn
sleep mode on or off through the Extended menu.
1. If you’re using a computer, shut it down first; otherwise you
may not be able to see your computer’s display to shut it
down properly.
2. To turn off the projector, press the P
Power button on the
projector or remote control.
You see this confirmation
message: (If you don’t want
to turn it off, press any other
button or wait a few seconds
until it disappears.)
3. Press the P
Power button again. The projector beeps
twice, the lamp is turned off, and the power light turns
orange.
Note:

®
technology there’s no cool-
down period, so you can pack up and go immediately after
turning off the projector.
If you want to turn the projector on again, press the
P
Power button.

projector to retract the front adjustable foot, if necessary.
