1If your video player uses a round, one-prong composite video 
connector, you’ll need only the A/V cable that shipped with 
the projector. 
•If your video player uses a round, four-prong S-video con-
nector, you’ll also need an S-video cable in addition to the 
A/V cable. The S-video cable is sold separately. (See 
“Accessories” on page 53.)
2Plug the A/V cable’s yellow connector into the “video-out” 
port on your video player (Figure 16). This port may be 
labeled “To Monitor.”
•If you’re using an S-video cable, connect it to the “s-video 
out” connector on the video player (Figure 17).
3Plug the other yellow connector into the   (composite 
video) connector on the back of the projector.
•If you’re using S-video, plug the other end of the cable into 
the   (s-video) connector on the projector (Figure 17).

USING THE PROJECTOR
This section describes how to use and make adjustments to the 
projector. It also provides a reference to the remote control but-
tons and the options available from the on-screen menus.
Basic Image Adjustment
1Make sure you have powered up your equipment in the right 
order (page 21).
2If the image doesn’t display completely, adjust the height of 
the projector (page 26) or center the image by adjusting its 
horizontal or vertical position (page 38).
3If the image is out of focus, rotate the lens to focus it (page 26).
4If the image appears to shimmer or if it has blurry vertical 
bars after you have adjusted the focus , turn 
Auto Image 
(page 37) off  and  then  back on to reset the  automatic sync and 
tracking. If that doesn’t clear up the image, adjust the sync 
(page 37) and/or the tracking (page 38) manually.
5If the colors don’t look right, adjust the brightness (page 29). 
The signal synchronization might need readjustment after 
changing the brightness (page 37).
Using the  Remote Control
NOTE: If you ca n’t ai m the 
rem ote con trol at  the projector so 
tha t its  s igna l i s recei ved  
— fo r 
example, when u si ng rea r projec-
tion
 — use th e remo te con trol 
cab le to conn ect the remote 
di rectly to th e projector (page 20 ).
Point the  remote control at the projection  screen or  at the  front or 
rear of the projector. The range for optimum operation is about 
40 feet. If you point the remote at the projection screen, the dis-
tance to the screen and back to the projector must be less than or 
equal to 40 feet. For best results, point the remote directly at the 
front or the rear of the projector.
