Preparation:
•  Remove the lens cap.
•  Turn on the power of the connected computer. 
1. Confi rm the POWER indicator lights-up red. 
•  If the projector was turned off before the lamp had cooled down suffi ciently, the fan may start rotating and the 
POWER button may not work after the power cord is plugged. (The STATUS indicator blinks green.) After the 
fan stops rotating, press the power button to turn back on the POWER indicator. 
2.  Press the POWER button on the projector or ON ( I ) button on the remote control. 
•  It may take about one minute for the lamp to light up. 
•  The lamp fails to light up on rare occasions. In such a case, wait for a few minutes and then try again.
•  Do not cover the lens with the lens cap while the lamp is on. Do not strip off the aluminium sheet inside the 
lens cap. 
•  After the POWER button is pressed, the image may fl icker before the lamp becomes stable. This is not a prod-
uct malfunction. 
• 
The STANDARD lamp mode is activated by default whenever the projector is turned on. When the LOW LAMP 
MODE has been chosen, the default STANDARD lamp mode is switched to the LOW lamp mode in 1 minute.
•  The projector starts warming up when the POWER button is pressed. During the warm-up process, images may 
appear dark and no commands are accepted.
•  By blinking red, the STATUS indicator indicates that the lamp should be replaced soon. Replace the lamp when 
the STATUS indicator blinks red. (See pages 33 and 36.) 
3.  Select an input source. 
•  Press the COMPUTER button on the projector or the COMPUTER or HDMI button on the remote control that is 
corresponding to the terminal in use. 
•  The input source is switched between COMPUTER and HDMI every time you press the COMPUTER button on 
the projector. 
•  Though it may take some time before an image is displayed on the screen depending on the type of the input 
signal, such symptom is not a malfunction. 
•  Images may not be projected in the correct position, depending on the type of the input signal. In such a case, 
press the AUTO POSITION button. (See page 22.)
•  The projector automatically selects the appropriate signal format. The selected signal format is displayed on the 
screen.
• The 
COMPUTER and HDMI buttons don’t function while the menu is being displayed. 
•  When COMPUTER is chosen as the source, images supplied from the computer may fl icker. Press the  or  
button on the remote control to reduce fl icker, if it occurs.
4.  Adjust the position of the projector to keep an appropriate projection distance with which images are projected in 
their specifi ed sizes. 
5.  Adjust the position of the projector so that the projector and the screen are perpendicular to each other. (See page 
10.) 
•  When the projector cannot be positioned perpendicularly to the screen, adjust the projection angle. (See page 10.)
6.  Adjust the size of the projected image by turning the ZOOM ring. 
7.  Adjust the focus by turning the FOCUS ring. 
Repeat steps 4 to 7, if necessary.

BLANK mode
The video signal is temporarily muted when the BLANK button is pressed. To cancel muting, press the BLANK 
button again.
•    It takes several seconds to disable the BLANK mode.
AUTO POSITION button 
When the image supplied from the computer is displaced, carry out the following procedure. 
1.  Display a bright image (such as a full-screen display of the Recycle Bin window). 
2.  When the screen saver has been enabled, disable it. 
3.  Press the AUTO POSITION button.  
    The projector automatically makes optimum positional settings for the input signal. 
•    If the image is not projected in the correct position even after you press the AUTO POSITION button several 
times, change the settings in the SIGNAL menu to put the image in the correct position. (See page 29.)
•    When you carry out this procedure with a dark image, the image may be displaced. 
When connecting to a notebook computer:
When the projector is connected to a notebook computer, images may not be projected in some cases. In such 
cases, set the computer so that it can output signals externally. The setting procedure varies depending on the type 
of the computer. See the instruction manual of your computer.
Example of the setting procedure for external output
Press the [Fn] key and any of the keys [F1] to [F12] at the same time. (The key to be pressed depends on the type of 
the computer you use.) 
To stop projecting:
8.  Press the POWER button on the projector or the OFF () button on the remote control. 
• A confi rmation message is displayed.
•  To cancel the procedure, leave the projector for a while or press the MENU button. 
9.  Press the POWER button on the projector or the OFF (
) button on the remote control again. 
•  The lamp goes out and the projector goes into a standby mode. In this standby mode, the STATUS indicator 
blinks green. 
10. Wait about one minute. 
•  During this period of one minute in the standby mode, the intake fan and exhaust fan rotate to cool the lamp. 
•  The lamp can’t be lit again for one minute after turning off the projector for safety purpose. It will take another 
one minute for the STATUS indicator to go out. If you want to turn on the projector again, wait until the indicator 
goes out, and then press the POWER button.
•  The air outlet fans rotate faster as the temperature around the projector rises.
•  Do not unplug the power cord while the STATUS indicator is blinking. Unplugging the power cord immediately 
after use may cause a lamp breakdown. 
•  Though the fan makes loud sounds during cooling, such symptom is not a malfunction. 
11. Unplug the power cord from the outlet. 
•  The POWER indicator will go out. 
•  If the power cord should be unplugged accidentally while either the air inlet fan or the air outlet fans are 
operating or the lamp is on, allow the projector to cool down for 10 minutes with the power off. To light the 
lamp again, press the POWER button. If the lamp doesn’t light up immediately, repeat pressing the POWER 
button two or three times. If it should still fail to light up, replace the lamp. 
•  Cover the lens with the lens cap to protect it from dust.
