Setting up your projector
Setting up the screen
Install the screen perpendicularly to the projector. If the screen can not be installed in such a way, adjust the projection angle of the projector. (See below.)
•Install the screen and projector so that the projector’s lens is placed at the same height and horizontal position of the screen center.
•Do not install the screen where it is exposed to direct sunlight or lighting. Light directly reflecting on the screen makes the projected images whitish and hard to view.
Basic setup
Determine the distance from the screen to the projector according to the size of the images to be projected. (See Page 11.)

•Do not place this projector on a carpet or blanket because the exhaust vent and the intake vent on the bottom surface are blocked and the inside of the projector is heated, causing a breakdown or fire.
•Depending on the installation conditions, warm air that is emitted from the exhaust vents may flow into the intake vent, causing the projector to display “TEMPERATURE!!” and then stop projecting images.
Adjusting the projection angle
This projector is provided with three feet for adjusting the projection angle on the bottom surface. Adjust the projection angle depending on the position of the projector.
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.

Adjustment feet (rear)
1.Tilt up the projector to the appropriate angle.
2.Press the foot adjustment buttons next to the adjustment feet (rear), and the adjustment feet will come out.
3.Release the buttons to lock the adjustment feet (rear) to that position.
4.Rotate the adjustment feet (rear) for fine adjustment.
After using the projector:
5.Put the adjustment feet (rear) back into the projector by pressing the foot adjustment buttons.
•If necessary, rotate the adjustment feet (front) for fine adjustment.
Keystone adjustment
•To correct vertical and horizontal keystone distor- tion, press the KEYSTONE button on the projec-
tor or the remote control to display KEYSTONE, and adjust the image by pressing the , , , button (or VOLUME +, - button on the remote con- trol).

•You can correct the vertical and horizontal key- stones at the same time. However, their adjust- ment ranges are limited in such correction.
•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 key- stone 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 displayed without noise.
•When the keystone adjustment is carried out, the image may not be displayed correctly because of the type of input signal.
