BBe sure to turn off the MAIN POWER switch by following the procedure
given in “Turning off the power” on page 26 before carrying out any of
the procedures in the “Remedy” column.

When the TEMP indicator and the

There are two indicators on the control panel of the projector which give
information about the operating condition of the projector. These indicators
illuminate or flash to warn you about problems that have occurred inside the
projector, so if you notice that one of the indicators is on, turn off the power
and check the table below for the cause of the problem.
