Preparation

Preparation for projection

1.Attach the provided power cord to the projector.

2.Plug the power cord in the wall outlet.

Warning:

•Do not look into the lens directly when the projector is on.

•One of power cords for the U.S., Europe and U.K. is provided appropriately.

•This projector uses the power plug of three-pin grounding type. Do not remove the grounding pin from the power plug. If the power plug doesn’t fit your wall outlet, ask an electrician to change the wall outlet.

•In case that the power cord for the U.S is provided with this projec- tor, never connect this cord to any outlet or power supply using other voltages or frequencies than rated. If you want to use a power supply using other voltage than rated, prepare an appropri- ate power cord separately.

•Use 100-240 V AC 50/60 Hz to prevent fire or electric shock.

•Do not place any objects on the power cord or do not place the projector near heat sources to prevent damage to the power cord. If the power cord should be damaged, contact your dealer for replacement because it may cause fire or electric shock.

•Do not modify or alter the power cord. If the power cord is modified or altered, it may cause fire or electric shock.

Caution:

•Plug in the power cord firmly. When unplugging, hold and pull the power plug, not the power cord.

•Do not plug in or out the power cord with your hand wet. It may cause electric shock.

Adjustment of the projection angle

For the best projection, project images on a flat screen installed at 90 degrees to the floor. If necessary, tilt the projector using the two adjustment feet on the bottom of the projector.

Using the adjustment feet (front)

1.Tilt up the projector to the appropriate angle.

2.Rotate the adjustment feet (front) for fine adjustment.

Important:

•Install the screen on a flat wall at 90 degrees to the floor.

•Slanting the projector more than ±10° (right and left) or ±15° (front and rear) may cause trouble or explosion of the lamp. You can tilt the projector up to 8 degrees using the adjustment feet only.

•Images may not be projected in a shape of a regular rectangle or with its aspect ratio 4:3, depending on the installation conditions of the projector and the screen.

Important:

•When the keystone adjustment is carried out, the adjustment value is indicated. Note that this value doesn’t mean a projection angle.

•The allowable range of the adjustment value in the keystone adjustment varies depending on the installation conditions.

•When the keystone adjustment takes effect, the resolution decreases. In addition, stripes may appear or straight lines may bend in images with complicated patterns. They are not due to product malfunctions.

•Noise may appear on the screen during the keystone adjustment because of the type of the video signal being projected and the setting values of the keystone adjustment. In such cases, set the keystone adjustment values in the range where the image is dis- played without noise.

•When the keystone adjustment is carried out, the image may not be displayed correctly because of the type of input signal.
