If you are experienced in setting up presentation systems, use the Quick Set 
Up card that was included in the box. For complete details on connecting 
and operating the projector, refer to this User ’s Guide. Electronic versions of 
this User ’s Guide in multiple languages are available on the included CD 
and on our website.
The website also has technical specifications (an interactive image size cal-
culator, laptop activation commands, connector pin outs, a glossary, the 
product data sheet), a web store to buy accessories, and a page for online 
registration. See the inside of the back cover for a list of all contact numbers 
and relevant web addresses.
Important Operating Considerations
Do not place the projector on a tablecloth or other soft covering that may 
block the vents. Intake vents are placed along the left, front and back sides 
of the projector.
 Exhaust vents are placed along the right side of the projec-
tor. In the unlikely event that the lamp ruptures, discard any edible items 
and thoroughly clean the area along the right side of the projector.
2 ft (.6m) Do not place objects in the area along the right side of the projector

Connecting a computerRequired computer connectionsConnect the black end of the computer cable to the Computer in connector 
on the projector. Connect the blue end to the video (VGA) port on your com-
puter. If you are using a desktop computer with a single VGA port, you first 
need to disconnect the monitor from that computer ’s video port. 
Connect the black power cable to the connector on the side of the projector 
and to your electrical outlet.
The Power LED on the projector ’s keypad turns solid green and the fans 
start to run.
NOTE: Always use the power cable that shipped with the projector. Optional computer connectionsTo advance slides in a PowerPoint™ presentation using the remote, plug the 
USB connector on the computer cable into the USB mouse connector on 
your computer. USB drivers must be installed to use the USB feature. For 
more information, see page 9.
To have sound with your presentation, connect the audio cable to your com-
puter and to the computer Audio In connector on the projector.

Displaying a computer image Remove the lens cap.
Press the Pow e r button on the top of the projector.
The LED flashes green. When the lamp comes on, the startup screen is dis-
played and the LED is steady green. It can take a minute for the image to 
achieve full brightness. 
? No startup screen? Get help on page 15.
Turn on your computer.
The computer ’s image should appear on the projection screen. If it doesn’t, 
press the Source button on the projector ’s keypad. 
Make sure your laptop’s external video port is active. 
Many laptops do not automatically turn on their external video port when a 
projector is connected. Refer to your computer ’s documentation to learn the 
activation commands specific for your computer. For example, some lap-
tops use a key combination of FN + F5 to turn the external display on and 
off. 
? No computer image? Try pressing the Auto Image 
button on the keypad. Get help on page 16.

New Hardware Wizard appears. Follow these instructions to use the Wiz-
ard to load the correct driver (which was installed with your Windows 
operating system).
If you are running Windows 2000, Windows ME, or Windows XP, skip these 
steps and go to “Adjusting the image” on page 10.aClick Next to begin searching for the driver.bMake sure “Search for the best driver” is selected, then click Next.cUncheck any checked boxes, then click Next. Windows automatically 
locates the driver. If this driver has been removed, reload the driver using 
your Windows operating system CD.dWhen Windows finds the driver, you are ready to install it. Click Next.
