Projection distance
Adjusting the projection size
Lens shift adjustment
The size of the projected image is basically determined by the distance \
from the projectors lens 
to the screen.
Hanging from the ceiling
A screen in a high location
Projector situated to the side so that the screen can be viewed sitting right in front of it
Projector situated on a shelf, etc.
When positioning an image using the lens shift dial, hardly any deterioration of the image occurs because the lens 
shift correction is adjusted optically. However, for optimal image quality the lens shift function should not be used. The lens shift dials can be used to position the image and is especially\
 useful when using the projector in the 
following locations.        p.16
While referring to the table below, position the projector so that the images are projected onto the 
screen at the optimum size.
The values should be used as a guide for setting up the projector.
The height from the centre of the lens to the bottom of the 
screen will vary depending on the lens shift setting.

Setting up
Installing the Projector
* When suspending the projector from a ceiling, change the configuration menu settings.       p.34
Projection methods
When projecting from directly in front
When projecting from a celling When projecting from the side of 
the screen
* Even if projection will be from the screen 
side, set up the screen and projector so that 
they are parallel.

Front/Ceiling
Avoid setting the projector up in a place which is very dusty or humid, or where there 
will be cigarette or other smoke, especially oily smoke.
Clean the air filter at least once every 3 months.
Clean the air filter more frequently if using the projector in a dusty e\
nvironment.
A special method of installation is required when suspending the project\
or from the 
ceiling (ceiling mount). If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident 
and injury.
If you use adhesives on the ceiling mount to prevent the screws from loosening, or if 
you use things such as lubricants or oils on the projector, the projector case may 
crack causing it to fall from its ceiling mount. This could cause serious injury to 
anyone under the ceiling mount and could damage the projector. 
When installing or adjusting the ceiling mount, do not use adhesives to prevent the 
screws from loosening and do not use oils or lubricants and so on.
Do not use the projector on its side. This may cause malfunctions to occur.

Connecting Image Sources
*1 If a DVD has been connected using a D SCART adapter, change the D/SCART setting in the Input Signal to 
SCART.  p.34
*2 Some regions may not have the D SCART adapter included as an accessory.
• Turn the power off for both the projector a nd the signal source before connecting them. 
If the power for either device is on at the time of connection, damage may result.
• Check the shapes of the cable connectors and the device ports before making the 
connections. If you try to force a connector to  fit a device port with a different shape or 
number of terminals, a malfunction or damage to the connector or port may result.
• Some signal sources may have specially-shaped ports. In such cases, use the 
accessory or optional cables that are suppl ied with the signal source to make the 
connections.
• The cable that should be used to connect vi deo equipment to the projector will depend 
on the type of video signal that the equipm ent outputs. Some kinds of video equipment 
output several different types of video signal. The image quality ranking of the video 
signal types is generally held to be as follows, in descending order of quality:
Digital component video
 [HDMI] > Analog component video [D] [Component] > 
S-Video
 [S-Video] > Composite video [Video]
You should refer to the documentation provided with the video equipment being used to 
check what types of video signal formats the equipment can output. The composite 
video format is sometimes simply called video output.

Installing the Projector
Preparing the Remote Control
Inserting batteries into the remote control
The remote control is not supplied with batteries already inserted. Insert the accessory batteries
before using the remote control.
If delays in the responsiveness of the remote control occur or if it does not operate
after it has been used for some time, it probably means that the batteries are
becoming flat. If this happens, replace the batteries with two new batteries. Use two
new AA batteries as replacement batteries.
Remove the battery cover.
Insert the batteries. Install the battery cover.
While pressing the knob, lift up.
Insert the tab.
Press down until the battery 
cover clicks into place.
Check the (+) and (-) 
indications inside the 
battery compartment and 
insert the batteries so that 
they face correctly.

Projecting Images
Turning the power on and projecting images
TIP
If you set the Direct Power On to On, the power of the unit will turn ON when 
the main power switch is turned ON, without having to press the power button of 
the remote control or the projectors control panel. 
If there is a problem with projection even though the projector is set up and connected correctly, 
refer to       p.15, 36.
The projector is equipped with a Child Lock function that prevents young 
children from accidentally turning the power on and looking into the lens, and 
also an Operation Lock function that prevents mis-operations.      p.33
When using above an altitude of about 1500 m, make sure you set the High 
Altitude Mode to On.       p.33
This projector is equipped with an automatic 
adjustment function that automatically optimizes it 
when a computer input signal is switched.
If a laptop computer or a computer with a LCD 
screen has been connected to the projector, you 
may need to use keyboard or function settings to 
change the output destination. While holding down 
the        key, press        (the key with a symbol such 
as       /       on it). After the selection is made, 
projection will soon start.

When the expected images are not 
projected
Turning the power off
Simply pressing    or    does not stop 
electricity consumption.
When the expected images are not projected
If more than one signal source has been connected, or if no images are p\
rojected, use the remote control or the 
projectors control panel buttons to select the signal source. For video devices, press the [Play] button on the video 
equipment first, then select the signal source. 
Using the remote control
Press the button that has the name of the port on it that 
the desired signal source is connected to.Using the control panel
When you press      , the menu is displayed.
Each press of      moves the pointer. Move the pointer 
to the target input source to select it.
Press       to accept. The input source is automatically 
changed if no operations are performed for about 5 
seconds with the pointer at the target input source.
Turning the power off
Turn the power off for the signal sources 
that are connected to the projector.
Press       on the remote control or       on 
the projectors control panel. If you press       
on the projectors control panel, the 
following message will be displayed. 
Press       again to continue. When the projector has cooled down    (takes 
about 30 seconds), turn off the main power 
switch. Attach the lens cover.
TIP
When the colour of the image projected from the [D] or [Component] input\
 port 
is unnatural, select an appropriate signal according to the signal from the device 
connected at Input Signal in the Configuration menu.       p.34

(Lens shift)
The lens shift function can be used to move 
the image display position vertically and 
horizontally within the range shown in the 
figure on the right when you cannot set up 
this projector directly in front of the screen, 
or when the image is projected too low or 
too high. 
When you turn the lens shift dial and hear a 
click, the lens position is almost centred.
The image display position cannot be 
moved to the maximum positions in both 
the vertical and horizontal positions.
