3. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

4. Always open the lens shutter (if any) or remove the lens cap (if any) when the
projector light source is on.

5. The light source becomes extremely hot during operation.

6. In some countries, the line voltage is NOT stable. This projector is designed to operate safely
within a mains voltage between 100 to 240 volts AC, but could fail if power cuts or surges of ±10
volts occur. In areas where the mains voltage may fluctuate or cut out, it is

recommended that you connect your projector through a power stabilizer, surge
protector or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).

7. Do not block the projection lens with any objects when the projector is under operation as this
could cause the objects to become heated and deformed or even cause a fire. To temporarily turn
off the light source, use the blank function.

8. Do not operate light sources beyond the rated light source life.

9. Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall, sustaining
serious damage.

10. Do not attempt to disassemble this projector. There are dangerous high voltages inside which may
cause death if you should come into contact with live parts.

Under no circumstances should you ever undo or remove any other covers. Refer servicing only to
suitably qualified professional service personnel.

11. Do not block the ventilation holes.

- Do not place this projector on a blanket, bedding or any other soft surface.

- Do not cover this projector with a cloth or any other item.

- Do not place inflammables near the projector.

If the ventilation holes are seriously obstructed, overheating inside the projector may result in a fire.

12. Do not stand the projector on end vertically. Doing so may cause the projector to fall over, causing
injury or resulting in damage to the projector.

13. Do not step on the projector or place any objects upon it. Besides probable physical damage to the
projector, doing so may result in accidents and possible injury.

14. When the projector is under operation, you may sense some heated air and odor from its
ventilation grill. It is a normal phenomenon and not a product defect.

15. Do not place liquids near or on the projector. Liquids spilled into the projector may cause it to fail.
If the projector does become wet, disconnect it from the power supply's power outlet and call
BenQ to have the projector serviced.

16. This apparatus must be earthed.

17. Do not place this projector in any of the following environments.

4 Important safety instructions

- Space that is poorly ventilated or confined. Allow at least 50 cm clearance from walls and free flow of air around the
projector.

- Locations where temperatures may become excessively high, such as the inside of a car with all windows rolled up.

- Locations where excessive humidity, dust, or cigarette smoke may contaminate optical components, shorten the
projector's life span and darken the image.

- Locations near fire alarms

14 Installation

• To optimize your projection quality, we suggest you do the projection within non-gray area.

• All measurements are approximate and may vary from the actual sizes.
BenQ recommends that if you intend to permanently install the projector, you should physically test the
projection size and distance using the actual projector in situ before you permanently install it, so as to make
allowance for this projector's optical characteristics. This will help you determine the exact mounting position so
that it best suits your installation location.

• Ceiling installation must be done by a qualified professional. Contact your dealer for more information. It is not
recommended you install the projector yourself.

• Only use the projector on a solid, level surface. Serious injury and damage can occur if the projector is dropped.

• Do not use the projector in an environment where extreme temperature occurs. The projector must be used at
temperatures between 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius) and 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees
Celsius).

• Screen damage will occur if the projector is exposed to moisture, dust or smoke.

• Do not cover the vents on the projector. Proper ventilation is required to dissipate heat. Damage to the projector
will occur if the vents are covered.

Mounting the projector

If you intend to mount your projector, we strongly recommend that you use a proper fitting BenQ
projector mounting kit and that you ensure it is securely and safely installed.

If you use a non-BenQ brand projector mounting kit, there is a safety risk that the projector may fall
down due to an improper attachment through the use of the wrong gauge or length screws.

Before mounting the projector

• Purchase a BenQ projector mounting kit from the place you purchased your BenQ projector.

• BenQ recommends that you also purchase a separate security cable and attach it securely to both the
security bar on the projector and the base of the mounting bracket. This will perform the secondary
role of restraining the projector should its attachment to the mounting bracket become loose.

• Ask your dealer to install the projector for you. Installing the projector on your own may cause it to
fall and result in injury.

• Take necessary procedures to prevent the projector from falling off such as during an earthquake.

• The warranty doesn’t cover any product damage caused by mounting the projector with a non-BenQ
brand projector mounting kit.

• Consider the surrounding temperature where the projector is ceiling mounted. If a heater is used, the
temperature around the ceiling may be higher than expected.

• Read the user manual for the mounting kit about the range of torque. Tightening with torque
exceeding the recommended range may cause damage to the projector and subsequently falling off.

• Make sure the power outlet is at an accessible height so that you can easily shut down the projector.

Shifting the projection lens

The lens shift control provides flexibility for installing your projector. It allows the projector to be
positioned off the center of the screen.

The lens shift is expressed as a percentage of the projected image height or width. You can turn the
knobs on the projector to shift the projection lens in any direction within the allowable range depending
on your desired image position.

• Lens shift adjustment will not result in a degraded picture quality.

• Please stop turning the adjustment knob when you hear a clicking sound indicating that the knob has reached its
limit. Over-turning the knob may cause damage.

16 Installation

Adjusting the projected image

Adjusting the projection angle

If the projector is not placed on a flat surface or the
screen and the projector are not perpendicular to
each other, the projected image becomes
trapezoidal. You can screw the adjuster feet to
fine-tune the horizontal angle.

To retract the feet, screw the adjuster feet in a
reverse direction.

Do not look into the lens while the light source is on. The strong light from the light source may cause damage to
your eyes.

Fine-tuning the image size and clarity

1. Adjust the projected image to the size that you
need using the zoom ring.

2. Sharpen the image by rotating the focus ring.

Using the lens rubber cap

When the projector is installed or mounted in any way other than a horizontal position, use the rubber
cap to keep the zoom ring from rotating due to its own weight. After the focus and zoom rings are
adjusted, follow the illustrations to insert the rubber cap to keep them in position.

Before connecting, carefully read the operating instructions for connecting the external device. When
connecting a signal source to the projector, be sure to:

1. Turn all equipment off before making any connections.

2. Use the correct signal cables for each source.

3. Ensure the cables are firmly inserted.

• In the connections above, some cables may not be included with the projector (see Shipping contents on page 6).
They are commercially available from electronics stores.

• The connection illustrations are for reference only.

• Before connecting a cable to the projector or to a device that is connected to the projector, touch any nearby
metallic objects to remove any static electricity from your body.

• Do not use unnecessarily long cables to connect the projector or a device to the projector. Using a longer cable
that is wound makes it act like an antenna, making it more susceptible to noise.

• When connecting cables, connect GND first and then insert the connecting terminal of the connecting device.

• Many notebooks do not turn on their external video ports when connected to a projector. Usually a key combo
like FN + function key with a monitor symbol turns the external display on/off. Press FN and the labeled function
key simultaneously. Refer to your notebook's documentation to find your notebook's key combination.

• If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct video source has been
selected, check that the video source device is turned on and operating correctly. Also check that the signal cables
have been connected correctly.

PICTURE menu

The projector is preset with several predefined picture modes so that you can
choose one to suit your operating environment and input signal picture type.

• Bright: Maximizes the brightness of the projected image. This mode is suitable
for environments where extra-high brightness is required, such as using the
projector in well lit rooms.

• PRESN: Is designed for presentations. The brightness is emphasized in this mode
to match PC and notebook coloring.

• Vivid: Is suitable for playing movies in rooms where there is a small amount of
ambient light, eg. your living room.

• Cinema: With well-balanced color saturation and contrast with a low brightness
level, this is most suitable for enjoying movies in a totally dark environment (as you
would find in a commercial cinema).

Picture Mode

• DICO-S: Follows the standard of DICOM to get the gray level parameter.

• Silence: Minimizes the acoustic noise. It is suitable for the need of watching
movies that requires an ultra-quiet environment so that you won't be disturbed by
the noise of the projector. When this mode is used, the following menu functions
will be automatically changed to the designated settings and grayed out.:

• XPR: Off (The display resolution will be 2716 x 1528.)

• Light Source Mode: Economic.

• User: Recalls the settings customized based on the current available picture
modes. See User Mode Management on page 28.

• 3D: Optimized to bring up 3D effects when watching 3D contents. This mode is
only available when 3D function is enabled.

• HDR: Delivers High Dynamic Range effects with higher contrasts of brightness
and colors. This mode is only available when HDR content is detected.

There are two user-definable modes if the current available picture modes are not
suitable for your need. You can use one of the picture modes (except the User) as
a starting point and customize the settings.

Gamma refers to the relationship between input source and picture brightness.

• 1.8/2.0/2.1/BenQ: Select these values according to your preference.

• 2.2/2.3: Increases the average brightness of the picture. Best for a lit
environment, meeting room or family room.

• 2.4: Best for viewing movies in a dark environment.

• 2.6/DICOM: Best for viewing movies which are mostly composed of dark
scenes.

• HDR Brightness

The projector can automatically adjust the brightness levels of your image according
to the input source. You can also manually select a brightness level to display better
picture quality. When the value is higher, the image becomes brighter; when the
value is lower, the image becomes darker.

• Color Temperature

• Preset: There are several preset color temperature settings available. The
available settings may vary according to the signal type selected.

You can also set a preferred color temperature by adjusting the following options.

• R Gain/G Gain/B Gain: Adjusts the contrast levels of Red, Green, and Blue.

• R Offset/G Offset/B Offset: Adjusts the brightness levels of Red, Green,

(Continued)

• Color Management

The Color Management provides six sets (RGBCMY) of colors to be adjusted.
When you select each color, you can independently adjust its range and saturation
according to your preference.

• Primary Color: Selects a color from among Red, Yellow, Green, Cyan, Blue,
or Magenta.

• Hue: Hue is used for adjusting the color
balance. Increase in the value will include colors
consisted of more proportions of its adjacent
colors in counterclockwise order. Decrease in
the value will have effect in clockwise order.
Please refer to the illustration for how the colors
relate to each other.
For example, if you select Red and set its value at
0, only pure red in the projected picture will be
selected. Increasing its value will include red
close to yellow while decreasing its value will include red close to magenta.

• Gain: Adjusts the values to your preference. The contrast level of the
primary color you select will be affected. Every adjustment made will reflect to
the image immediately.

• Saturation: Adjusts the values to your preference. Every adjustment made
will reflect to the image immediately. For example, if you select Red and set its
value at 0, only the saturation of pure red will be affected.

Saturation is the amount of that color in a video picture. Lower settings produce less saturated
colors; a setting of “0” removes that color from the image entirely. If the saturation is too high, that
color will be overpowering and unrealistic.

• Color Gamut

Color Gamut refers to the range of colors that can potentially be displayed by a
device. There are some standards to define difference levels of color gamuts for
display devices, such as CIE 1976, sRGB, Adobe RGB, NTSC, etc.

With this projector, selecting Auto will automatically apply the most suitable color
gamut to the image source. You can also select BT. 709, BT. 2020, or DCI-P3
according to your needs.

(Continued)

• CinemaMaster

• Color Enhancer: Allows you to fine-tune the saturation of colors with
larger flexibility. It modulates complex color algorithms to flawlessly render
saturated colors, fine gradients, intermediate hues and subtle pigments.

• Flesh Tone: Provides a smart adjustment of hue only for calibrating people's
skin color, not other colors in the image. It prevents discoloration of skin
tones from the light of the projection beam, portraying every skin tone in its
most beautiful shade.

• Pixel Enhancer 4K: It is a super-resolution technology which radically
enhances Full HD content in terms of colors, contrast, and textures. It's also a
Detail Enhancement Technology refines surface details for true-to-life images
that pop off the screen. Users can adjust levels of sharpness and detail
enhancement for optimal viewing.

• DCTI/DLTI: Sophisticated algorithms significantly improve color and light
output when producing images with contrasting colors or bright and dark
scales. DCTI heightens color vibrancy for drastic color transitions without
noise interference. DLTI reduces noise from fast switching of varied
luminance to optimized brightness and contrast. The result is picture quality
with the utmost picture depth and color performance.

• Noise Reduction: Reduces electrical image noise caused by different media
players. The higher the value, the less the noise.

Reset Current
Picture Mode

• Brilliant Color: This feature utilizes a new color-processing algorithm and
system level enhancements to enable higher brightness while providing truer,
more vibrant colors in picture. It enables a greater than 50% brightness increase in
mid-tone images, which are common in video and natural scenes, so the projector
reproduces images in realistic and true colors. If you prefer images with that
quality, select On. When Off is selected, the Color Temperature function is
not available.

• Light Source Mode: Selects a suitable light source power from among the
provided modes. See Setting the Light Source Mode on page 40.

and let it cool down completely before cleaning the lens.

• Use a canister of compressed air to remove dust.

• If there is dirt or smears, use lens-cleaning paper or moisten a soft cloth with lens cleaner and gently
wipe the lens surface.

• Never use any type of abrasive pad, alkaline/acid cleaner, scouring powder, or volatile solvent, such as
alcohol, benzene, thinner or insecticide. Using such materials or maintaining prolonged contact with
rubber or vinyl materials may result in damage to the projector surface and cabinet material.

Cleaning the projector case

Before you clean the case, turn the projector off using the proper shutdown procedure as described in

Shutting down the projector on page 24 and unplug the power cord.

• To remove dirt or dust, wipe the case with a soft, lint-free cloth.

• To remove stubborn dirt or stains, moisten a soft cloth with water and a neutral pH detergent. Then
wipe the case.

Never use wax, alcohol, benzene, thinner or other chemical detergents. These can damage the case.

Storing the projector

If you need to store the projector for an extended time, please follow the instructions below:

• Make sure the temperature and humidity of the storage area are within the recommended range for
the projector. Please refer to Specifications on page 45 or consult your dealer about the range.

• Retract the adjuster feet.

• Remove the battery from the remote control.

• Pack the projector in its original packing or equivalent.

Transporting the projector

It is recommended that you ship the projector with its original packing or equivalent.

Getting to know the light source hour

When the projector is in operation, the duration (in hours) of light source usage is automatically
calculated by the built-in timer. The method of calculating the equivalent light source hour is as follows:

Light Source Usage Time = (hours used in Normal mode) + (hours used in Economic mode) +
(hours used in SmartEco mode) + (hours used in Dimming mode) + (hours used in Custom mode)

Total (equivalent) light source hour = 1.0 x (hours used in Normal mode) + 1.0 x (hours used in
Economic mode) + 1.0 x (hours used in SmartEco mode) + 1.0 x (hours used in Dimming mode) +

1.0 x (hours used in Custom mode)

To obtain the light source hour information:

1. Go to SYSTEM SETUP: ADVANCED > Light Source Information and press OK. The
Light Source Information page appears.

2. Press to select Light Source Timer and press OK. The Light Source Timer is displayed.

You can also get the light source hour information on the INFORMATION menu.

Extending light source life

• Setting the Light Source Mode

Go to PICTURE > Advanced > Light Source Mode > Light Source Mode or press LIGHT
SOURCE on the remote control to selects a suitable light source power from among the provided
modes.

Light source
mode

Normal Provides full light source brightness
Economic Lowers brightness to extend the light source life and decreases the fan noise
SmartEco Adjusts the light source power automatically depending on the content brightness level
Dimming Lowers brightness to offer a longer light source life

Custom

Description

Displays the light source brightness adjustment bar so that you can adjust the setting to your
liking

• Setting Auto Power Off

This function allows the projector to turn off automatically if no input signal is detected after a set
period of time to prevent unnecessary waste of light source life.

To s e t Auto Power Off, go to SYSTEM SETUP: BASIC > Operation Settings > Auto Off and
press / .

40 Maintenance

• The apparent brightness of the projected image will vary depending on the ambient lighting conditions, selected
input signal contrast/brightness settings, and is directly proportional to projection distance.

• The light source brightness will decline over time and may vary within the light source manufacturers
specifications. This is normal and expected behavior.
