If the projector is tilted vertically or horizontally, turn the bases of the rear adjustable feet to make fine adjustments to the height of the projector. When the projector is tilted horizontally, the correction may not be carried out correctly. sp.38

Rear adjustable foot

Extend Retract

If you tilt the projector up, keystone distortion will occur in the projected screen. However, the projector is equipped with an automatic keystone correction function that can automatically correct this keystone distortion on the screen. Automatic keystone correction is carried out approximately one second after the projector is tilted vertically while the power is on.

Keystone distortion can be corrected automatically as long as the vertical angle of tilt is within a range of approximately 30º *.

*• This value applies when the zoom ring is turned to the maximum "T" setting. If the zoom ring is turned to the "W" setting, the available angle of tilt for automatic adjustment will be less.

•If the angle of tilt is large, it will become more difficult to adjust the focus correctly. In order to obtain better picture quality, set the projector up so that the angle of tilt is small.

TIP

•Automatic keystone correction is not carried out when the "Projection" command in the "Extended" menu is set to "Front". •If you would like to make further fine adjustments after automatic keystone correction has been carried out, press the [] and [] buttons on the projector's control panel. sp.39

•When keystone correction is carried out, the projected image will become smaller.

•If the images become uneven in appearance after keystone correction is carried out, decrease the sharpness setting. sp.51, p.53

•If automatic keystone correction is not required, set "Auto Keystone" in the "Setting" menu to "OFF". sp.59
