EN - 11 ENGLISH Projector + Computer For computer with Mini D-SUB Important: • When you use a longer RGB cable instead of the provided cable, the image may not be projected correctly. • Some computers require additional connectors or analog RGB output adapters to be connected with this projector. Contact your dealer for further information. • This projector uses stereo pin jack for its audio input. Check the type of the audio output terminal of the connected computer and prepare a proper cable for connection. Some computers don't have the audio output terminal. • Speaker output is mono. • When the audio cable is connected to the AUDIO OUT terminal, the speaker output is muted. For Macintosh • If your Macintosh has no video port, a monitor output adapter is required. Contact your dealer for further information. • Some Macintoshes require a MAC adapter for the RGB cable for connection with this projector. Contact your dealer for further information. About DDC The COMPUTER/COMPONENT VIDEO IN-1 terminal of this projector complies with the DDC1/2B standard. When a computer supporting this standard is connected to this terminal, the computer will automatically load the information from this projector and prepare for output of appropriate images. • After connecting a computer supporting this standard to this terminal, plug the power cord of the projector in the wall outlet fi rst, and then boot up the computer. • You may need to install the DDC driver, depending on the computer you use.

EN - 12 Preparation 1. Tilt up the project to the appropriate angle. 2. Press the foot adjustment buttons next to the adjust- ment feet (rear), and the adjustment feet will come out. 3. Release the buttons to lock the adjustment feet (rear) to that position. 4. Rotate the adjustment feet (rear) for fi ne adjustment. After using the projector: 5. Put the adjustment feet (rear) back into the projector by pressing the foot adjustment buttons. Important: • If necessary, rotate the adjustment feet (front) for fi ne adjustment. • Install the screen on a fl at wall at 90 degrees to the fl oor. • Slanting the projector more than ±10˚ (right and left) or ±15˚ (front and rear) may cause trouble or explo- sion of the lamp. You can tilt the projector up to 7 degrees using the adjustment feet only. • Images may not be projected in a shape of a regular rectangle or with its aspect ratio 4:3, depending on the installation conditions of the projector and the screen. • To correct vertical keystone distortion, press the KEYSTONE button on the projector or the remote control to display KEYSTONE, and adjust the image by pressing the , button (or VOLUME +, - but- ton on the remote control). In the following cases:Preparation for projection 1. Attach the provided power cord to the projector. 2. Plug the power cord in the wall outlet. 3. Remove the lens cap. Warning: • Do not look into the lens directly when the projector is on. • The lens cap is for protecting the lens. If you leave the lens cap on the lens with the projector turned on, it may be deformed because of heat build-up. Remove the lens cap when you turn on the projector. • The power cords for use in the U.S. and Europe are provided with this projector. Use the appropriate cord for your country. • This projector uses the power plug of three-pin grounding type. Do not remove the grounding pin from the power plug. If the power plug doesn't fi t your wall outlet, ask an electrician to change the wall outlet. • The provided power cord for the U.S. is rated at 120 V. Never connect this cord to any outlet or power sup- ply using other voltages or frequencies than rated. If you want to use a power supply using other voltage than rated, prepare an appropriate power cord sepa- rately. • Use 100-240 V AC 50/60 Hz to prevent fi re or elec- tric shock. • Do not place any objects on the power cord or do not place the projector near heat sources to prevent damage to the power cord. If the power cord should be damaged, contact your dealer for replacement because it may cause fi re or electric shock. • Do not modify or alter the power cord. If the power cord is modifi ed or altered, it may cause fi re or elec- tric shock. Caution: • Plug in the power cord fi rmly. When unplugging, hold and pull the power plug, not the power cord. • Do not plug in or out the power cord with your hand wet. It may cause electric shock. Adjustment of the projection angle For the best projection, project images on a fl at screen installed at 90 degrees to the fl oor. If necessary, tilt the projector using the two adjustment feet on the bottom of the projector. Important: • When the keystone adjustment is carried out, the adjustment value is indicated. Note that this value doesn't mean a projection angle. • The allowable range of the adjustment value in the keystone adjustment varies depending on the instal- lation conditions. • When the keystone adjustment takes effect, the res- olution decreases. In addition, stripes may appear or straight lines may bend in images with complicated patterns. They are not due to product malfunctions. • Noise may appear on the screen during the keystone adjustment because of the type of the video signal being projected and the setting values of the key- stone adjustment. In such cases, set the keystone adjustment values in the range where the image is displayed without noise. • When the keystone adjustment is carried out, the im- age may not be displayed correctly because of the type of input signal. For ES100U only • When the 720p or 1080i signal is input, the keystone adjustment ranges are limited. Screen Adjustment feet (Rear) Press the (or -) button.Press the (or +) button.
