The image can be adjusted to the desired size within the zoom range. 4Rotate the FOCUS ring until the image on the screen becomes clear. 5Press INPUT to select the desired input mode. Press INPUT again to change the mode. Projector •When the selected input signal is being received, “Adjusting The Image” will be displayed. •When no signal is being received, “NO SIGNAL” will be displayed. When a signal that the projector is not preset to receive is being received, “NOT REG.” will be displayed. •You can display all input modes one by one when “Auto Source” is set to “OFF”. 5 EXAMPLE 6 7 8 Remote control Zooming/Focusing INPUT 1 (DVI) Mode INPUT 1 (RGB) Mode INPUT 2 (S-VIDEO) Mode INPUT 1 (COMPONENT) Mode f f f INPUT 3 (VIDEO) Mode f 6Press VOLUME on the remote control to adjust the volume. 7Press AV MUTE on the remote control to temporarily turn off the picture and the sound. Press AV MUTE again to turn the picture and the sound back on. 8Press ON/OFF on the projector or POWER on the remote control, and then press ON/OFF or POWER again while the message is displayed to turn off the power. •If you accidentally pressed ON/OFF or POWER and do not want to turn off the power, wait until the power off screen disappears. •When ON/OFF or POWER is pressed twice, the POWER indicator illuminates red and the cooling fan will run for about 90 seconds. The projector will then enter standby mode. •Wait until the cooling fan stops before disconnecting the power cord. •The power can be turned on again by pressing ON/OFF or POWER. When the power is turned on, the POWER indicator and the LAMP REPLACEMENT indicator light green. VOLUME 51
Operation 20 Position the projector perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level to achieve an optimal image. Move the projector forward or backward if the edges of the image are distorted. •The projector lens should be centered in the middle of the screen. If the lens center is not perpendicular to the screen, the image will be distorted, making viewing difficult. •Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly onto the screen washes out colors, making viewing difficult. Close the 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. Place the projector at the required distance from the screen according to the desired picture size. (See the table below.)

Operation 22 Setting up the Screen Using the Adjustment Feet You can adjust the height of the image by raising the projector with the foot release. 1Lift the projector and press HEIGHT ADJUST. (The adjuster comes out.) 2While pressing HEIGHT ADJUST, lower the projector to adjust the height. (Adjustable up to approximately 8° from the standard position) 3Remove your finger from HEIGHT ADJUST at the desired angle. 4Rotate the rear adjuster to adjust the projector exactly. (Adjustable up to approximately 1° from the left rear foot) Returning the projector to its original position While holding the projector, press HEIGHT ADJUST and slowly lower the projector to its original position. •When an adjustment is made, the image may become distorted (keystoned), depending on the relative positions of the projector and the screen. •Optimal image quality can be achieved when the projector is positioned perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level. Reversed Image Setup Projection using a mirror •When the distance between the projector and screen is not sufficient for normal rear projection, you can use a mirror to reflect the image onto the screen. •Place a mirror (normal flat type) in front of the lens. •Project the normal image onto the mirror. •The image reflected from the mirror is projected onto the translucent screen. Rear projection •Place a translucent screen between the projector and the audience. •Use the projector’s menu system to reverse the projected image. (See page 44 for use of this function.) CAUTION •When using a mirror, be sure to carefully position both the projector and the mirror so the light does not shine into the eyes of the audience. Ceiling-mount Setup •It is recommended that you use the optional Sharp ceiling-mount bracket for this installation. •Before mounting the projector, contact your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center to obtain the recommended ceiling-mount bracket (sold separately). (AN- PGCM85 ceiling-mount bracket and its AN-EP101A extension tube (for U.S.A.), or AN-M15T ceiling-mount bracket and its AN-TK201/ AN-TK202 extension tubes (for countries other than the U.S.A.)) •When the projector is in the inverted position, use the upper edge of the screen as the base line. •Use the projector’s menu system to select the appropriate projection mode. (See page 44 for use of this function.) CAUTION •Do not press HEIGHT ADJUST when the adjustment foot is extended without firmly holding the projector. •Do not hold the lens when lifting or lowering the projector. •When lowering the projector, be careful not to get your fingers caught between the table and the projector.
