Although this unit incorporates high precision technology
in its design, please understand that there may be
extremely slight pixel breakup, or light emission fault.
Note
In order to protect this unit’s panels and circuitry, the revolving
speed of the interval fan will be automatically increased in order
to cool the inside of the unit when the surrounding temperature
exceeds 104 °F (40 °C). (The sound of the fan will become louder
at this time). Please operate this unit in a location with a
surrounding temperature under 104 °F (40 °C).
Additional cautions
÷
If the power is automatically turned off during operation
of this unit, the following reasons may be the cause.
1
Is the POWER SAVE mode set to “MODE1” or
“MODE2”? (page 26)
2
The surrounding temperature has risen above 104 °F
(40 °C). Please operate this unit in a location with a
surrounding temperature under 104 °F (40 °C).
3
The vents are blocked or the internal temperature
has risen abnormally due to abnormal heat
generation of internal parts etc..
If the power is automatically turned off for a reason
other than the above reasons, there could be a
malfunction. In this case, unplug the power cord from
the power outlet and request repair from your nearest
sales outlet.
