Installation Precautions
Precautions When Carrying the Projector
Installation Precautions
Be sure to read on page 12 – 24. Pay attention to the following when installing the 
projector.
Precautions When Carrying and Transporting the Pro-
jector
Prepare the projector as described below before carrying it.
• Disconnect the cables connected to the projector. Carrying 
the projector with the cables attached may cause an acci-
dent.
• Retract the adjustable feet.
• When the projector is transported after the lens unit is 
installed, be sure that you do not grasp the lens while trans-
porting it. Doing so may damage the projector.
• Do not strike the projector or 
subject it to impact. Doing so 
may cause a malfunction.
• Do not install the projector so 
that it is inclined or standing 
vertically. The projector may tip 
over, causing damage.
• Do not block the cooling fan 
intake or exhaust vent. If the intake or exhaust vent is 
blocked, heat may accumulate inside the projector, causing 
a malfunction.
• Do not reuse any packaging or shock-absorbent materials 
that were supplied with the projector at the time of purchase 
for transporting or shipping the projector. Protection of the 
projector cannot be guaranteed if used packaging or shock-
absorbent materials are reused. Fragments from shock-
absorbent material may also enter the interior of the projec-
tor which could cause a malfunction.
• If transportation is necessary, the lens unit should be 
removed before transporting the projector. If the projector is 
subjected to excessive impacts during transportation, the 
lens unit may be damaged. Removal and installation of the 
lens unit should not be performed by the user. Be sure to 
have the procedure performed by a qualified technician or 
contact the Canon Customer Support Center.

Installation Precautions
Installation Manual Installation
■Do Not Use in the Following Environments
 Do not install the projector in a humid or dusty location or a position where there is a lot 
of oily smoke or cigarette smoke. Optical parts such as the lens and mirror may be 
stained, resulting in poor picture quality.
 Do not install close to high-voltage power lines or power sources. The projector may not 
operate correctly.
 Do not use the projector on a soft surface such as a carpet or sponge mat. Heat may 
accumulate inside the projector, causing a malfunction.
 Do not use the projector in a location that is subject to very high temperatures, very low 
temperatures, or high levels of humidity. Doing so may cause a malfunction. The tem-
perature and humidity ranges for operation and the temperature range for storage are 
shown below.
■Do Not Touch the Lens with Bare Hands
Do not touch the lens with bare hands. Doing so may adversely affect picture quality.
■Install at a Sufficient Distance from Walls and Other Obstructions
■Be Careful of Condensation
If the temperature of the room rises suddenly, moisture in the air may condense on the 
projector lens and mirror, causing the image to become blurred. Wait until condensation 
evaporates and a normal picture is shown.
■When Using the Projector at Altitudes Greater than 2,300 m
Contact the Canon Customer Support Center if you intend to use this projector at altitudes 
of 2,300 m or higher.Operating

If the air intake or 
exhaust vent is blocked, 
heat will accumulate 
inside the projector, 
possibly resulting in a 
shortened projector life-
time or a malfunction. 
Do not install in a 
closet, on a bookshelf, 
or other narrow location 
with poor ventilation. 
Install in a well venti-
lated location. (Install 
with a minimum of 50 
cm (1.6) clearance on 
the top and sides, and 
50 cm (1.6) to the rear.)

■When using mounted on the ceiling
■Install facing in the correct directionWhen the projector is used mounted on the 
ceiling or installed in a high location, it is nec-
essary to periodically clean the air intake and 
exhaust vents, and the area around the air fil-
ter. If dust accumulates in the intake or 
exhaust vents, cooling performance will dete-
riorate, causing the internal temperature to rise and possibly resulting in a 
malfunction or fire. Use a vacuum cleaner or similar means to remove dust 
from the intake vent and exhaust vent.

Selecting the Projection Method and Installation Location
■Ceiling Mounting or Rear Projection
You can mount the projector on the ceiling (ceiling mounting) with it turned upside down 
or place it behind the screen (rear projection) if you use a translucent screen.
Make sure to use the optional ceiling attachment. For the ceiling attachment, refer to 
page 231.
■Adjusting the projection position when installed on the floor
To adjust the projection position when the projector is installed on the floor, use the lens 
shift function (P74 and P160) to adjust up / down / left / right. You can also use the adjust-
able feet to incline the projector upward by up to 6°. For information about the relationship 
between screen size and projection distance, refer to page 156.
When the projector is inclined upwards, the projected image will be distorted into a trape-
zoid shape. This can be corrected by using the keystone correction. (P76)
