Aspect Ratio
RCVHDSource 
SpecificUse this sub-menu to select an aspect ratio setting for the projected 
image.
Input Source: RGB or HDMI (PC)
Normal*:
Projects at the projector’s maximum possible size while 
maintaining the input signal aspect ratio.
Full:
Projects at the projector’s maximum possible size by enlarging or 
reducing the input signal.
True (XJ-M240/XJ-M245/XJ-M250/XJ-M255 only):
Projects the input signal at its actual size (1 input source dot 
equal to one projector output pixel dot) in the center of the 
projector’s projection screen. If the input signal resolution 
exceeds the projector’s output resolution, the excess is cut off.
Input Source: Video, S-video, Component or 
HDMI (DTV)
Normal*:
Projects at the projector’s maximum possible size while 
maintaining the input signal aspect ratio.
16:9 :
This setting specifies a 16:9 aspect ratio, which is the same as a 
movie screen, high-definition TV, etc. Using this setting when the 
input signal is a 16:9 image that has been squeezed to a 4:3 
image causes the image to be displayed with its normal 16:9 
aspect ratio.
Letter Box (XJ-M240/XJ-M245/XJ-M250/XJ-M255 only):
This will resize the image horizontally to 1280 dots and project 
800 vertical dots of the center of the image, maintaining the 
aspect ratio of the input signal.
NotezWhen the input source is a component or an HDMI (DTV) 
signal with an aspect ratio of 16:9, the aspect ratio is fixed 
at 16:9. The aspect ratio setting cannot be changed in this 
case.
zWhen projecting while “True” is selected as the aspect 
ratio setting for an RGB signal with a resolution that is less 
than SVGA, the image is enlarged to SVGA and projected.
zFor details about projection screen display conditions for 
different aspect ratio settings, see “Aspect Ratio Setting 
and Projection Image” (page 48).

Cleaning the Projector
Periodically clean the projector exterior, lens, intake vents, exhaust vents, and airflow vents on a 
regular basis.
Important!Before cleaning the projector, be sure to unplug it from the power outlet and make sure it is 
cooled down completely.
Wipe the exterior of the projector with a soft cloth that has been moistened in a weak solution of water 
and a mild neutral detergent. Be sure to wring all excess moisture from the cloth before wiping.
Never use benzene, alcohol, thinner, or any other volatile agent for cleaning.
Carefully wipe the lens with a commercially available lens cloth or optical lens paper, like those for 
eyeglasses or camera lenses. When cleaning the lens, do not apply undue force and take care to avoid 
damaging the lens.
Dust and dirt tend to collect around the intake vents. Because of this, you should use a vacuum 
cleaner to clean away accumulated dust and dirt periodically as shown below.
Important!zContinued use of the projector after dust has accumulated around the intake vents can cause 
overheating of internal components and lead to malfunction.
zCertain operating conditions also can cause dirt and dust to accumulate around the 
projector’s exhaust vents and airflow vents. If this happens, use the same procedure as that 
described above to clean the exhaust vents and airflow vents.
