If the problem still persists, contact the dealer where you purchased the projector or the service center. Safety Precaution WARNING : TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. ­ This projector produces intense light from the projection lens. Do not stare directly into the lens as much as possible. Eye damage could result. Be especially careful that children do not stare directly into the beam. ­ Install the projector in a proper position. If not, it may result in a fire hazard. ­ Provide appropriate space on the top, sides and rear of the projector cabinet for allowing air circulation and cooling the projector. Minimum clearances must be maintained. If the projector is to be built into a compartment or similarly enclosed, the minimum distances must be maintained. Do not cover the ventilation slot on the projector. Heat build-up can reduce the service life of your projector, and can also be dangerous. SIDE and TOP 1.5' (50 cm) CAUTION RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN CAUTION : TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE EXCEPT LAMP REPLACEMENT. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

"Power off?" disappears after 4 seconds. 2 TO MAINTAIN THE LIFE OF LAMP, ONCE YOU TURN THE PROJECTOR ON, WAIT AT LEAST FIVE (5) MINUTES BEFORE TURNING IT OFF. DO NOT UNPLUG THE AC POWER CORD WHILE THE COOLING FANS ARE RUNNING OR BEFORE THE POWER INDICATOR STOPS BLINKING. OTHERWISE IT WILL RESULT IN SHORTENING THE LAMP LIFE.
