Positioning the Projector
Follow these guidelines to get the best results when projecting:
❏Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface, between 
2.5 and 38 feet from the screen.
❏Make sure there is plenty of space for ventilation around and 
under the projector.
❏Make sure the projector is within 10 feet of a grounded 
electrical outlet or extension cord and within 5 feet of the 
image source.
❏Face the projector squarely toward the screen. 
The projector supports 5 viewing setups, as shown below. If it is 
installed in a rear or overhead position, you need to select the 
correct 
Projection option from the Setting menu after you turn 
it on. If you mount the projector on the ceiling, professional 
installation is recommended.
If the projector is tilted in the front or the back, you may need 
to adjust the image shape. See page 5. Image Size and Projection Distance 
The distance between the projector and the screen determines 
the size of the projected image, as shown below. Because other 
adjustments—such as those made with the 
Aspect button—
also affect the size of the image, the numbers shown in the 
illustration should be considered as general guidelines, not exact 
measurements. 
Use the formulas given below either to find out how large your 
image will be when you know the distance from the projector to 
the screen, or to find out how far from the screen to place the 
projector when you want an image of a certain size. Since the 
size of the image can be changed by rotating the zoom ring, 
formulas are given for both the minimum and maximum sizes. 
To determine the diagonal size of an image when you know the 
projection distance:
Minimum diagonal size = (0.39421 × projection distance) + 
1.2116
Maximum diagonal size = (0.25690 × projection distance) + 
0.69164
To determine the projection distance when you know the 
diagonal size of the screen image: 
Projection distance = (minimum diagonal screen size × 
2.5367) - 3.0735
Projection distance = (maximum diagonal screen size × 
3.8925) - 2.6922
Table
Convenient for temporary front 
projection. Choose 
Front from 
the menu. 
Ceiling
Professional installation 
recommended. Choose 
Front/Ceiling from the menu. 
(You can purchase ceiling mounting 
equipment from EPSON; see page 
12.)
Rear
For permanent installation behind a 
translucent screen. Choose 
Rear 
from the menu. 
Rear/Ceiling
Professional installation behind a 
translucent screen recommended. 
Choose 
Rear/Ceiling from the menu.
(You can purchase special ceiling 
mounting equipment from EPSON; 
see page 12.)
Shelf
Attach the three rubber feet that 
came with the projector to the 
top of the projector, then turn the 
projector upside-down. Choose 
Front/Ceiling from the menu.

Turning the Projector On and Off
Once you’ve connected the projector to your computer or other 
equipment, follow these instructions to turn it on and display 
an image:
1. Make sure the power is turned off for the projector and any 
sources connected to it.
2. Remove the lens cover.
3. Connect one end of the power cord to the projector and plug 
the other end into a grounded electrical outlet. 
The P 
Power light on the projector turns orange, indicating 
that the projector is receiving power, but is not yet turned 
on.
Note: The projector will not respond to any buttons on the 
control panel or remote control while the power light is 
flashing orange.
4. If you are connecting to video equipment, turn it on now. (If 
you are connecting to a computer, don’t turn it on yet.) 
5. Press the P 
Power button on the remote control or the top 
of the projector to turn on the projector. 
You hear a beep, the P 
Power light flashes green as the 
projector warms up, and the projection lamp comes on in 
about 45 seconds. 
6. If you are using a computer, turn it on now. 
The projector automatically detects the video source and begins 
projecting. 
If you don’t see a picture, make sure the P power light on the 
projector is green and not flashing, and the lens cover is off. 
Also, make sure your cable is connected to both the projector 
and your video equipment, and the video equipment is on. If 
you still don’t see a picture, see the suggestions in the 
Troubleshooting section on page 6.
Turning Off the Projector
When you’re ready to shut down the projector, follow these 
steps:
1. Turn off your video equipment first. (If you’re connecting to 
a computer, leave the computer on.)
2. Press the P
 Power button on the projector or remote 
control.
3. When you see the confirmation message, press the P
 Power 
button again to turn the projector off. (If you don’t want to 
turn it off, press any other button or ignore the message. It 
disappears in about 7 seconds.)
The lamp is turned off and the P
 Power light flashes orange 
as the projector cools down. When the projector has cooled, 
the P
 Power light stays orange and the exhaust fan shuts 
off.
Note: If you want to turn the projector on again, wait until 
the orange light stops flashing. Then press the P
 Power 
button.
4. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.
Caution: Never disconnect the power cord while the
P power light is green or flashing orange. You may damage 
the projector.
5. Replace the lens cover and retract the projector’s adjustable 
feet.
6. Store the remote control in its holder on the back of the 
projector. (Part of the remote control will stick out when it’s 
fully inserted.)
Adjusting the Image
1. To raise the picture, turn the projector’s front feet.

buttons on the projector’s control panel until the image is 
corrected.
Note: You can only correct vertical distortion with this 
function. Also, the screen image becomes smaller when you 
perform keystone correction.
If the images become uneven in appearance, decrease the 
Sharpness setting in the projector’s Picture Quality menu.
3. Rotate the focus ring to sharpen the picture, or the zoom 
ring to reduce or enlarge it.
4. To optimize color settings, press the 
Color Mode button on 
the remote control to choose from these four pre-set color 
modes:
❏

rooms with a lot of ambient light.
❏
Theatre
For projecting movies or images with dark tones. This is 
the default color mode for component video sources.
❏
Theatre Black
For projecting movies or images in a dark room; lamp 
brightness decreases and image contrast increases.
5. To change the picture’s aspect ratio (ratio between length 
and height), press the 
Aspect button on the remote control 
to move through these options:
❏
Normal
Maintains the aspect ratio of the image source and the 
projected image on a 16:9 (wide-screen format) screen; 
when images output in 4:3 format are projected, black 
bands appear on the sides, but the image’s normal aspect 
ratio is maintained.❏
Squeeze
Best for projecting wide-screen format (16:9) images; 
when images output in 4:3 format are projected, they are 
elongated horizontally.
❏
Zoom
Crops images ouput in 4:3 format at the top and bottom 
and projects them in 16:9 format.
Note: Standard images have an aspect ratio of 4:3, and 
HDTV and DVD images have an aspect ratio of 16:9.
Adjusting the Volume
Use the buttons on the projector’s control panel or remote 
control to adjust the volume of the projector’s audio system or 
speakers connected directly to the projector’s 
Audio ports:
❏Press the   button to decrease the volume.
❏Press the   button to increase the volume.
Turning Off the Picture and Sound
You can use the A/V Mute button on the remote control to 
darken your screen and turn off the sound. This is useful if you 
pause the video. When you’re ready to resume, press 
A/V Mute 
again.
Use your video equipment’s controls to pause the video. If you 
don’t pause it, it continues to play even though you can’t see or 
hear it. When you press the 
A/V Mute button again, playback 
won’t resume exactly where you stopped it.
Freezing the Action
To freeze the action temporarily on the screen, press the Still 
button on the remote control. This freezes any moving images 
until you press the 
Still button again.
Like the 
A/V Mute feature, the video and audio input continue 
while the moving images are paused, so when you press the 
Still 
button again, playback doesn’t resume exactly where you 
stopped it.

Replacing the Lamp
The projection lamp typically lasts for about 2000 hours of use. 
(If you use 
Theatre Black color mode almost exclusively, the 
lamp lasts about 3000 hours.) It is time to replace the lamp 
when:
❏The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.
❏The   warning light on top of the projector flashes red at 
0.5-second intervals. 
❏The message 
Replace the lamp appears on the screen when 
you start projecting. To maintain projector brightness and 
image quality, replace the lamp as soon as possible after you 
see the message.
Request replacement lamp part number V13H010L2H.
Note: To view the number of hours your lamp has been used, check 
the Info menu.
Warning: Be very careful when removing the lamp. Let the lamp 
cool before replacing it. If the lamp breaks, handle the shards 
carefully to avoid injury. In the unlikely event that the bulb has 
ruptured, small glass fragments may be present and should be 
removed with caution. If your projector is mounted on the ceiling, 
you should unmount it. This will make it easier for you to replace 
the lamp and minimize the chance of any small glass fragments 
dropping from the projector.
