Adjustable Tilt 
Foot Lever
Adjust the Tilt Foot
1.		Lift	the	front	edge	of	the	projector.
 CAUTION:
Do	 not	 try	to	touch	 the	exhaust	 vent	during	 Tilt	Foot	 adjustment	 as	
it	can	 become	 heated	while	the	projector	 is	turned	 on	and	 after	 it	is	
turned	off.
2.		Push	 up	and	 hold	 the	Adjustable	 Tilt	Foot	 Lever	 on	the	 front	 of	
the	projector	to	extend	the	adjustable	tilt	foot.
3.		Lower	the	front	of	the	projector	to	the	desired	height.
4.		Release	 the	Adjustable	 Tilt	Foot	 Lever	 to	lock	 the	Adjustable	 tilt	
foot.
 The tilt foot can be extended up to 2 inches/52 mm.
 There is approximately 10 degrees (up) of adjustment for the front of 
the projector.
 Rotate the rear foot to the desired height in order to square the image 
on the projection surface.
 CAUTION:
•	 Do	not	use	the	tilt-foot	for	purposes	other	than	originally	intended.
	 Misuses	 such	as	using	 the	tilt	foot	 to	carry	 or	hang	 (from	 the	wall	 or	
ceiling)	the	projector	can	cause	damage	to	the	projector.
Adjusting	the	left	and	right	tilt	of	an	image	[Rear	foot]
•	 Rotate	the	rear	foot.
 The rear foot can be extended up to 1 inch/26.5 mm. Rotating the rear 
foot allows the projector to be placed horizontally.
NOTE:
•	 Do	 not	extend	 the	rear	 foot	 beyond	 its	height	 limit	(1	inch/26.5	 mm).	Doing	 so	
may	cause	the	rear	foot	to	come	out	of	the	projector.	
•	 If	extending	 the	left	rear	 foot	 (viewed	 from	the	rear)	 causes	 the	protrusion	 to	
interfere	with	the	floor,	 extend	 the	right	 rear	foot	 by	0.5	 inch/12	 mm	or	longer.	
If	extending	 the	right	 rear	foot	 causes	 the	protrusion	 to	interfere	 with	the	floor,	
extend	the	left	rear	foot	by	0.3	inch/8	mm.

❻ Correcting Keystone Distortion Manually
If	the	 screen 	is	 tilted 	vertically, 	keystone 	distortion	 becomes	large. 	Automatic	 Keystone	Correction 	function 	is	 turned 	on 	
at	the	 time	 of	shipment. 	To	 correct	 keystone	 distortion	 manually,	 proceed	with	the	following	 steps	to	correct	 keystone	
distortion. 
 
NOTE:	
•	 The	Keystone	correction	can	cause	an	image	to	be	slightly	blurred	because	the	correction	is	made	electronically.
•	 The	Keystone	correction	range	can	be	made	narrower,	depending	on	a	signal	or	its	aspect	ratio	selection.
Adjusting with buttons on the cabinet
1. Press the ▲ or ▼	button	with	no	menus	displayed.
	 The	keystone	bar	will	be	displayed.
    
2.  Use the ▲ or ▼	to	correct	the	keystone	distortion.
	 The	keystone	bar	will	be	closed	after	a	period	of	time.
3.  Press the ENTER button.
	 The	keystone	bar	will	be	closed.
