Fixing problems

If the image is out of focus:

Be sure the lens cover is open.

While displaying the on-screen menu, adjust the focus ring. (The image size should not change; if it does, you are adjusting the zoom, not the focus.)

Ensure the projection screen is 1 to 10 m (3 to 33 ft) from the projector.

Check the projection lens to see if it needs cleaning.

For a computer connection, set the display resolution on the computer to 1024×768 pixels. If the computer has multiple monitors, adjust the resolution of the monitor assigned to the projector.

For a computer connected to the S-video port, the picture cannot be as high resolution as what you see on the computer display.

If an upside-down or reversed image is displayed:

The projector has been set to the wrong position setting. Press menu, go to Setup > Projector position, and select the correct setting.

If the image is too small or too large:

Adjust the zoom ring on top of the projector.

Move the projector closer to or farther from the screen.

On the projector or remote control, press the picture mode button one or more times to see if one of the picture modes makes the image the correct size.

Press menu, go to Picture > Customize picture mode > Stretch. Try the different settings.

If the source device sends wide-screen output, press menu, go to Picture > Shape settings, and try setting Widescreen input to Yes. Otherwise, set it to No.

If the image has slanted sides:

As much as possible, reposition the projector so that it is centered on the screen and below the bottom or above the top of the screen.

On the projector or remote control, press the keystone button until the sides are vertical.
