WARNING
Keep your hands and other objects away from the air exhaust port. fKeep your hand and face away.
 fDo not insert your finger.
 fKeep heat-sensitive articles away.
Heated air from the air exhaust port can cause burns, injury, or deformations.
Note
 fThe remote control can be used within a distance of about 5 m (16'4-13/16") if pointed directly at the remote control signal 
receiver. The remote control can control at angles of up to ± 30 ° vertically and ± 30 ° horizontally, but the effective control 
range may be reduced.
 fIf there are any obstacles between the remote control and the remote con\
trol signal receiver, the remote control may not 
operate correctly.
 fYou can operate the projector by reflecting the remote control signal on the screen. The operating range may differ due to 
the loss of light caused by the properties of the screen.
 fWhen the remote control signal receiver is lit with a fluorescent light or other strong light source, the projector may become 
inoperative. Set the projector as far from the luminous source as possib\
le.

Preparing the remote control
Inserting and Removing batteries
(ii)
(i)
1) Open the cover. (Fig. 1)
2) Insert batteries and close the cover (Insert the "m" side first.). (Fig. 2)
 fWhen removing the batteries, perform the steps in reverse order.
When using the multiple projectors
When you use the system with multiple projectors, you can operate all the projectors simultaneously or each projector 
individually using single remote control, if unique ID number is assigne\
d to each projector.
When you want to set the ID number, at first you need to set the ID number of the projector, and then set the ID number on the 
remote control. 
The factory default ID number of the unit (the projector and the remote control) is set to [ALL], you can control with this setting. 
If necessary, please set the ID number to the remote control and the projector. 
About how to set the ID number of the remote control, please refer to “Setting the remote control ID numbers”. (x page 43)
Note
 fSet the ID number of the projector from the [Expand] menu → [Remote control]. (x page 70)

Projection distance formulas 
To use a screen size not listed in this manual, check the screen size SD (m) and use the respective formula to calculate projection distance.
The unit of all the formulae is m. (Values obtained by the following calculation formulae contain a slight error.)
If you want to calculate the projection distance with projected image size SD (unit: inch) by substituting, please assign 0.0254 
times to the SD value.
For PT-LW362
4:3 aspect ratio16:9 aspect ratio16:10 aspect ratio
Screen height (SH)= 0.6 × SD= 0.490 × SD= 0.530 × SD
