Aiming the Remote Control
Infrared (IR) remote control sensors are located on the front and the back of the 
projector. The remote control must be held at an angle within 30 degrees of the pro-
jection screen or the projector’s IR remote control sensors to function correctly. The 
distance between the remote control and the sensors should not exceed 6 meters 
(19.5 feet). 
Notes on Remote Control Operation:
Make sure that there are no obstacles between the remote control and the IR sensors on the
projector that might obstruct the infra-red beam. 
Replacing the Battery in the Remote Control
1. Using a ballpoint pen, 
push and hold the bat-
tery latch toward the 
center, then pull out the 
battery holder.
2. Remove the old battery 
from the battery holder.
3. Insert the new battery in 
the holder.
4. Push the holder into the 
remote control.
Avoid excessive heat and humidity.
There may be danger of an explo-
sion if the battery is incorrectly
replaced. Replace only with the
same or equivalent type recom-
mended by the manufacturer. Dis-
pose of the used battery according
to the manufacturer’s instructions.

3. Installation
Choosing a Location
Your projector is designed to be installed in the four installation configurations 
shown here. Your room layout or personal preference will dictate which installation 
configuration you use. 
For further information on the four configurations, please refer to page 29.
If you place the projector above or below the screen, you have to tilt it down or up to 
center the image on the screen, in these situations image distortion will occur. Use 
the Keystone function to correct the distortion. See page 22 for keystone correction. I. Table front II. Ceiling front
III. Table rear IV. Ceiling rear 
						

							3. Installation 15
Adjusting the Height
The projector is equipped with 1 quick-release adjuster foot and 2 rear adjuster 
feet. These adjusters change the image height and projection angle. To adjust the 
projector,
1. Lift the projector up and 
press the adjuster button 
to release the adjuster. 
The adjuster will drop into 
position and be locked. It 
can lift the projector by up 
to 15 degrees. 
2. Screw the rear adjuster 
feet to fine tune the hori-
zontal angle.
Press the adjuster button again 
to retract the foot.
If the screen and the projector are not perpendicular to each other, the projected image
becomes trapezoidal. To correct this situation, adjust the value of Keystone in the Picture
menu, on the projector control panel or on the remote control.
Screen Size
Place the projector at the required distance from the screen according to the 
required picture size (see the table on the next page).
