Adjusting the projector’s elevator
When the place to put the projector is slightly uneven 
to the left or right, use the elevator feet to place the 
projector horizontally. 
Using the feet can also tilt the projector in order to 
project at a suitable angle to the screen, elevating the 
front side of the projector within 12 degrees.
This projector has 2 elevator feet and 2 elevator buttons. 
An elevator foot is adjustable while pushing the elevator 
button on the same side as it.
To loose an 
elevator foot, push 
the elevator button 
on the same side 
as it.
To finely 
adjust, twist 
the foot.
1. 
Holding the projector, push the elevator buttons to 
loose the elevator feet.
2. 
Position the front side of the projector to the desired 
height.
3. 
Release the elevator buttons in order to lock the 
elevator feet.
4. 
After making sure that the elevator feet are locked, 
put the projector down gently.
5. 
If necessary, the elevator feet can be manually   
twisted to make more precise adjustments. Hold the 
projector when twisting the feet.
►Do not handle the elevator buttons without holding the 
projector, since the projector may drop down.
►Do not tilt the projector other than elevating its front within 12 degrees using 
the adjuster feet. A tilt of the projector exceeding the restriction could cause 
malfunction or shortening the lifetime of consumables, or the projector itself.CAUTION
