3.Use the [W] and [X] keys to correct for keystoning.
zEach press of [W] or [X] shifts the indicator on the currently selected bar left or right.
zRepeat steps 2 and 3 to perform keystone correction for the other direction, if you 
want. 
4.After the settings are the way you want, press the [ESC] key or the 
[KEYSTONE] key. 
zThis causes the keystone correction screen to disappear.
Auto Focus (AF) 
At times, the projector may not focus properly when you press the [AF/AK] key. This can be 
caused by local environmental factors, etc. If this happens, focus the image manually or try 
performing the AF operation again. If you often need to adjust focus manually, perform the 
steps under “To adjust Auto Focus”, below.
Note that the allowable distance for Auto Focus is less than that for manual focus.
To adjust Auto Focus
1.Position the projector and screen so they are about 1.5 meters apart, 
and then press the [ ] (power) key to turn on the projector.
zPosition the projector so it is pointed straight at the screen.
2.Press the [AF/AK] key.
3.Press the [KEYSTONE] key and then use the screen that appears to 
change the vertical and horizontal keystone correction values to zero. 
zThis step is not necessary if these values are already zero.
4.Use the [FOCUS] keys to adjust focus manually.
5.While the focus indicator is being projected, hold down the [ENTER] key 
for about five seconds.
zAfter about five seconds, the message “Focus operation successful.” or “Focus operation 
failed.” is projected.
6.If the focus operation fails, repeat the above procedure from step 2.

Auto Keystone Correction
Certain operational environments and other factors can make it impossible to achieve sufficient 
accuracy when performing keystone correction. 
If an image appears distorted after performing auto keystone correction check the sensors for 
dirt and clean them if necessary. See page 70 for more information.
If this does not solve the problem, try changing the position of the projector slightly or 
perform manual keystone correction.
AF/AK at Short Projection Distances
Performing the AF/AK (Auto Focus, auto keystone correction) operation when there is sharp 
angle and when there is only a short distance between the projector and screen can result in 
the left and right edges of the image to be out of focus. If this happens, reduce the angle or 
increase the distance between the projector and screen.
The color mode setting lets you specify the type of image you will be projecting, so the 
projector can optimize image color.
To change the color mode setting
1.Press the [COLOR MODE] key.
zThis causes the color mode screen to appear on the projection image. The z mark 
indicates the current color mode setting.
zFor details about each of the settings, see “Image Adjustment J Color Mode” on 
page 32.
2.Use the [S] and [T] keys to move the cursor to the setting you want, 
and then press the [ENTER] key.
zThis moves the z to item that is selected by the cursor, and applies the setting to the 
image.
3.To close the setup screen, press the [ESC] or [COLOR MODE] key.

While RGB is selected as the input source, you can display a sub-window that simultaneously 
displays the image being input through the VIDEO or S-VIDEO terminal. This function is 
called “picture-in-picture” or “P-IN-P”.
zThe initial default setting for the sub-window input source is VIDEO. Use the setup menu 
when you want to change the sub-window input source to S-VIDEO. For details, see 
“Input Settings J P-in-P Input” on page 43.
zNote that P-IN-P can be used only when RGB is selected as the input source. It is not 
available while any other input source is selected.
zIf Component is selected for “Input Settings J RGB Input” on the setup menu, you need 
to change the setting to RGB in order to use picture-in-picture. Note that the initial 
default setting for “Input Settings J RGB Input” is RGB.
