Note
• You can automatically adjust the computer 
image by setting “Auto Sync” in the “SIG-ADJ” 
menu to “On”, or pressing AUTO SYNC on the 
remote control.
• Depending on the type of input signal, the 
adjustment range for each setting may vary or 
the adjustment may not be available at all.

2 Setting the Resolution
Ordinarily, the type of input signal is detected and the 
correct resolution mode is automatically selected. How-
ever, for some signals, the optimal resolution mode in 
“Resolution” in the “SIG-ADJ” menu may need to be 
selected to match the computer display mode.
Note
• Avoid displaying computer patterns which repeat 
every other line (horizontal stripes). (Flickering 
may occur, making the image hard to see.)
• Information on the currently selected input 
signal can be confi rmed in item 8 on page 42.

• Auto Sync adjustment is also performed by 
pressing AUTO SYNC on the remote control.
• When setting “Auto Sync” to “Off”, and if 
AUTO SYNC is pressed, Auto Sync will be ex-
ecuted in “On” mode. If the button is pressed 
again within one minute, Auto Sync will be 
executed in “On” mode.
• The Auto Sync adjustment may take some time 
to complete, depending on the image of the 
computer connected to the projector.
• 
When the optimum image cannot be achieved with 
Auto Sync adjustment, use manual adjustments.
4 Signal Type Setting
When using an input mode of HDMI1, HDMI2, or COM-
PUTER, set the signal type to the corresponding input 
signal type (RGB or YPbPr).

Enjoying 3D Image Viewing
You can use special 3D Glasses to watch 
3D-supported images on this projector.
  You can enjoy 3D images by viewing the video images 
through the 3D Glasses supplied with the projector or 
through optional 3D glasses sold separately.
  To produce 3D images, liquid crystal shutters in the 
3D Glasses alternately open and close imperceptibly 
fast to exactly match alternating left and right video 
images displayed by the projector.
  Not all consumers can experience and enjoy 3D im-
ages. Some people suffer from stereo blindness which 
prevents them from perceiving the intended depth of 
3D entertainment. Also, some people who watch 3D 
programming may experience initial feelings of motion 
sickness as they adjust to the picture. Others may ex-
perience headaches, eye fatigue or continued motion 
sickness. Like a roller coaster, the experience is not for 
everyone.
Precautions on using 3D Glasses
  The 3D Glasses are precision equipment. Handle them 
with care.
  Improper use of the 3D Glasses or failure to follow 
these instructions can result in eye strain.
  If you experience dizziness, nausea, or other discom-
fort while viewing 3D images, immediately discontinue 
use of the 3D Glasses. Using the binocular dispar-
ity 3D system of this projector with incompatible 3D 
broadcasts or software can make images appear with 
a cross talk blur or create overlapping images.
  If you are nearsighted or farsighted or have astigma-
tism or a different level of eyesight between the left 
and right eyes, you should take the necessary steps, 
such as wearing eyeglasses, to correct your eyesight 
before viewing 3D images. The 3D Glasses can be 
worn over eyeglasses.
  3D viewing is possible within the range that the 3D 
Glasses are able to receive infrared signals refl ected 
by the screen. However, most 3D images are manu-
factured to be viewed from directly in front of the 
screen, so 3D viewing is recommended directly in front 
of the screen as much as possible.
  The 3D Glasses are only recommended for people 
ages 5 and older.
  When children are viewing 3D images, be sure a par-
ent or guardian is present. Monitor children viewing 3D 
images, and if they show signs of discomfort, immedi-
ately discontinue use of the 3D Glasses.
CAUTION: Before viewing 3D images, please read this section carefully.
  People with a known history of photosensitivity and 
people with heart problems or poor health should not 
use the 3D Glasses. This can worsen existing health 
conditions.
  Do not use the 3D Glasses for other purposes (such 
as general eyeglasses, sunglasses, or protective 
goggles).
  Do not use the 3D function or 3D Glasses while walk-
ing or moving around. This may result in injuries due to 
running into objects, tripping, and/or falling.
  When using the 3D Glasses, take care not to acci-
dentally strike the screen or other people. Viewing 3D 
images may cause you to misjudge the distance to the 
screen and accidentally strike the screen, resulting in 
possible injury.
Precautions on viewing 3D images
  When viewing 3D images continuously, be sure to take 
a break periodically to prevent eye strain.
  Take regular breaks, at least 5 to 15 minutes after 
every 30 to 60 minutes of 3D viewing.
  * Based on the guidelines issued by the 3D Consor-
tium revised December 10, 2008.
  View 3D images at the appropriate distance from the 
screen. The recommended distance is three times the 
effective height of the picture.
  Examples of recommended distances
  100-inch 16:9 picture: Approx. 12.3 ft (3.8 m)
  Viewing should not be done closer than the recom-
mended distance.
  Refer to page 18 for details on the diagonal size and 
height of the picture.
  Maintain an appropriate distance from the screen. 
Viewing from too close a distance can strain your 
eyes. If you experience eye strain, immediately discon-
tinue viewing.
  If you experience any of the following symptoms dur-
ing viewing:
 – nausea
 – queasiness/dizziness
 – headache
  – blurry vision or double vision that lasts longer than 
few seconds
  Do not engage in any potentially hazardous activity 
(for example, driving a vehicle) until your symptoms 
have completely gone away.
  If symptoms persist, discontinue use and do not 
resume 3D viewing without discussing your symptoms 
with a physician.
