See the following pages for information on what to do when you see
these warning lights or encounter other specific problems with the
projector.
◗ The power light is flashing orange and you cannot turn on the
projector.
The lamp is cooling down. Wait until the light turns off and then turn
on the projector.
◗ The power light does not come on.
Turn off the projector, check that the power cable is connected
securely both at the power outlet and the projector, and press the
Power button again. Try removing and reseating the lamp.
◗ Projected images get darker or start to deteriorate, or the projection
lamp light is red.
Replace the projector lamp as described in Chapter 5.
◗ The temperature light is red.
The projector is overheating, which turns the lamp off automatically.
Let the projector cool for a few minutes, then turn it back on. Make
sure nothing is blocking the ventilation vents.
The air filter may be clogged. Clean it as described in Chapter 5 and
then let the projector cool for awhile.
If the projector continues to overheat after you clean the air filter, the
problem may be caused by damage to the cooling fan or internal
circuits. Contact a qualified service person.
Warning: Except as specifically explained in this User’s Guide, do not
