Adjustable Leveling Foot
Adjusting the Lens
Use the adjustable foot to level the projector 
when it is placed on an uneven surface or 
when the screen is slanted.
The projected image can be made higher by 
adjusting the projector when it is lower than 
the screen.
1Hold the projector firmly and screw the 
adjustable foot to adjust the projector 
to the desired angle. 
2Lift the projector to the desired angle 
and screw the adjustable foot to fix the 
level.
•  If the screen is at an angle, the adjustable 
feet can be used to alter the angle of the 
image.
 Notes
•  The projector is adjustable up to approximately 5-degrees from the standard position.
•  When the height of the projector is adjusted, the image may become distorted (keystoned), depending on 
the relative positions of the projector and the screen. See “Layout Menu” on page 25 for details on 
keystone correction.
 Info
•  When lowering the projector, be careful not to catch your fingers between the adjustment foot and the 
projector.
Adjust the lens using the focus and zoom rings to correct the image.
1Adjust zoom by rotating the zoom ring.
2Adjust focus by moving the focus ring.

Setting up the Screen
Position the projector perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level to achieve an 
optimal image.
Standard Setup (Front Projection)
„Place the projector at the required distance from the screen according to the desired picture size. (See 
page 16)
An Example of Standard Setup
 Notes
•  The projector lens should be perpendicular (square-on) to the screen. If the horizontal line passing 
through the lens center is not perpendicular to the screen, the image will be distorted, making viewing 
difficult. 
•  For an optimal image, position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling 
directly on the screen washes out the colors, making viewing difficult. Close curtains and dim the lights 
when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room.
•  A polarizing screen cannot be used with this projector.
•  The distance from the screen to the projector 
depends on the size of the screen.
•  The default setting can be used, when placing the 
projector in front of the screen. If the projected 
image is reversed or inverted, readjust the setting to 
“Front” for “PRJ Mode” in the “Options” menu.
•  Place the projector so that an imaginary horizontal 
line that passes through the center of the lens is 
perpendicular to the screen.
