If you forget the password

If the password function is activated, you will be asked 
to enter the six-digit password every time you turn on 
the projector. If you enter the wrong password, the 
password error message as pictured to the right is 
displayed lasting for 3 seconds, and the INPUT 
PASSWORD message follows. You can retry by entering 
another six-digit password, or if you did not record the 
password in this manual, and you absolutely do not remember it, you can use the password 
recall procedure. See

If you enter an incorrect password 5 times in succession, the projector will automatically 
shut down in a short time.
