Battery installation
Use two AAA size batteries.
1. Remove the back cover of the remote control by pushing the battery compartment door in the direction of the
arrow.
2. Load the batteries making sure that they are positioned correctly (+ to +, and - to -).
•Load the batteries from - spring side, and make sure to set them tightly.
3. Replace the back cover.
Important:
•Do not combine a new battery with an old one.
•Load batteries in the correct position.
•Do not heat, take apart, or throw batteries into fire.
•Do not try to recharge batteries. Do not use rechargeable batteries.
•If the solution of batteries comes in contact with your skin or clothes, rinse with water. If  the solution comes
in contact with your eyes, rinse them with water and then consult your doctor.
Operation area
The range for operation is about 10 m (33 feet) when the remote control points to the projector. The distance to
the screen back to the projector must be less than 6 m (20 feet). Depending on the type of screen, the effective
distance may be different.
Important:
Avoid direct sunlight or fluorescent light on the remote control sensor. Also keep the distance of more than 2 m
between the remote control sensor and fluorescent lamp or the remote control may not work correctly. The remote
control may become less effective near an inverter fluorescent lamp.  In such a case, put the attached light-
shielding seal on of the remote control sensors that is closer to the fluorescent lamp.

Installation
Orientation of the projector
Picture size can be set by changing the distance between the screen and the projector.
Front projection
To find the approximate distance be-
tween the projector and screen:
Multiply the width of the screen
x 1.8 (min.) , Multiply the width of the
screen 
x 2.2 (max.).
• Refer to the chart for recommended
distances in maximum zoom and
minimum zoom.
Front projection, ceiling mount
For ceiling mount, you need the ceiling mount kit.
Ask a specialist for installation. For more details,
consult your dealer.
• This warranty does not cover damage caused by
the use of any unrecommended ceiling mount kit
and the installation of the ceiling mount kit at an
improper location.
• When using the ceiling mount, set IMAGE RE-
VERSE in the INSTALLATION menu to MIR-
ROR INVERT. See Page 16.
• Projected images may appear darker when the
unit is used as a ceiling installation than when it
is used in the tabletop position. This does not
signify a product malfunction.
Rear projection
Ask a specialist for installation.  For more details,
consult your dealer.• For rear projection, set IMAGE REVERSE in the
INSTALLATION menu to MIRROR.  See Page 16.
Caution:
• Placing the projector on a carpet reduces ventila-
tion from the fan at the bottom and might cause
problems. Place a hard board or similar item
under the projector to facilitate ventilation of the
unit.
• Place the projector more than 50cm (20 in.) from
the wall to prevent blocking the intake, exhaust
slots and ventilation of this projector because hot
air comes out of it.
• Do not use the projector under the following
circumstances, which may cause fire or electric
shock.
• in a dusty or humid place
• while the projector is lying sideways
• near a heater
• in a kitchen or oily, smoky or damp place
• in direct sunlight
• where the temperature is lower than +41°F
(+5°C) or higher than +95°F (+35°C)
Important:
• Do not put stress on the lens, as this may cause
damage.
