CONNECTIONS AND SETUP
Using the Adjustment Feet
The height of the projector can be adjusted 
using the adjustment feet when the surface 
the projector is placed on is uneven or when 
the screen is slanted. 
The projection of the image can be made 
higher by adjusting the projector when it is in a 
location lower than the screen.
1Press the foot releases and lift 
the projector to the desired 
angle.
2Remove your hands from the foot 
releases. Once the adjustment 
feet have locked in position, 
place the projector down.
•  If the screen is at an angle, the 
adjustment feet can be used to adjust 
the angle of the image.
 Note
•  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 page 44 for details on keystone 
correction.
 Info
•  When lowering the projector, be careful not 
to get your finger caught in the area 
between the adjustment foot and the 
projector.

CONNECTIONS AND SETUP
Adjusting the Lens
Using the Lens Shift
The image is focused and adjusted to the 
desired size using the focus ring or zoom ring 
on the projector.
1Zoom is adjusted by rotating the 
zoom ring.
2Focus is adjusted by moving the 
focus ring.
The height and width of the projected image 
can be adjusted to be within the shift range of 
the lens by rotating the lens shift dial at the top 
of the projector.
 Note
•  Do not forcibly turn the lens shift dial beyond 
the range of the upper l
eft and lower right 
positions. This may cause the projector to 
malfunction.

CONNECTIONS AND SETUP
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 23)
An Example of Standard Setup
 Note
•  The projector lens should be centered in the middle of 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 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.
•  The distance from the screen to the projector may 
vary depending 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.
 Note
2D Lens Shift Ability:
•  The vertical display (Biggest) is ±1/2 screen. 
(±100%)
•  The horizontal display (Biggest) is ±3/40 
screen. (±15%)
•  It is recommended that images be projected 
onto 
the dashed line octagonal area for fine 
image quality.
•  There is a tolerance of ±3% in the formula 
above
