automatically. Make sure there is plenty of space around and under the projector for
ventilation. Clean or replace the air filters if necessary (see page 26). If you are using the

Fan Speed setting to High
(see page 22).

Solving Projector Problems
The projector doesn’t turn on.
■ Check the P power light. If it’s dark, the projector is not receiving power. Make sure the
power cord is securely attached at both ends. Check that the electrical outlet isn’t
controlled by a timer, wall switch, or power strip switch, which may be interrupting the
power.
■ If the P power light is orange, the projector is in sleep mode. Press the P Power button
to turn on the projector.
If the Child Lock is being used (see page 22), you have to press and hold the projector’s
P
Power button for at least 3 seconds to turn on the projector. (The remote control,
however, operates normally.)
■ If the P power light is green and not flashing, the projector is operating normally. Make
sure the lens cover is off. Press the
A/V Mute button on the remote control to make sure
the picture hasn’t been turned off temporarily.
