Is the lamp due for replacement? When the lamp is nearly due for replacement, the images will become darker and the colour quality
will become poorer. When this happens, the lamp should be replaced with a new one. sp.86
Check Remedy
Are images from a port other than the
[Computer1/Component Video1] port being
projected?
The only images that can be displayed on an external monitor are those from the [Computer1/
Component Video1] port. The [Computer2/Component Video2] port cannot be used for an external
monitor, and images from a video equipment cannot be send to the external monitor regardless of
the port. sp.22
Problems when projection starts
Check Remedy
Have you pressed the [Power] button? Press the [Power] button to turn the power on.
Are all of the indicators switched off? The power cable is not connected correctly or power is not being supplied. Connect the power cable
to the projector correctly. sp.31
Alternatively, check the circuit breaker to see if power is being supplied.
Do the indicators turn off and on when the
power cable is touched?
There is probably a poor contact in the power cable, or the power cable may be defective. Reinsert
the power cable. If this does not solve the problem, stop using the projector, disconnect the power
cable from the wall outlet and contact the nearest address provided in the "International Warranty
Conditions" section of the Safety Instructions/World-Wide Warranty Terms booklet.
