For example, if you are using a 120-inch screen, the recommended projection distance is 4702 mm.
If your measured projection distance is 4000 mm, the closest match in the "Projection distance (mm)"
column is 3918 mm. Looking across this row shows that a 100'' (about 2.5 m) screen is required.
• 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.
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 Kensington lock compatible security cable and
attach it securely to both the anti-theft lock slot 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.
16 Positioning your projector
• Consider the surrounding temperature where the projector is ceiling/wall mounted. If a heater is used,
Ceiling/Wall mount screw: M4 x 8 mm
(Max L = 25 mm; Min L = 20 mm)
Unit: mm
BenQ ceiling mount CMG3 (5J.JAM10.001)
Ceiling mount screw: M4
(Max. L = 25 mm; Min. L = 20 mm)
Unit: mm
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.
To reach the highest or lowest projection position:
1. Turn (Up/Down).
2. When you feel it is reaching the limit, turn
(Left/Right) to the left or right and turn
again.
3. Repeat the step above until finding the suitable position you need.
• If you hear a “clicking sound” during the adjustment, it means that the knob is past its adjustment limit. Please
stop adjusting it, in order to avoid any unexpected damage, and turn the knob in the opposite direction, at least
to one step before the click.
• If you can’t turn it back, please press and turn the knob back at same time.
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.
Keystoning refers to the situation where the projected image becomes a trapezoid due to angled
projection.
To correct trapezoidal distortion, you can activate the Auto Vertical Keystone function in the
Advanced Menu - Display menu. Or you can manually correct it following these steps.
1. Do one of the following steps to display the keystone
correction page.
• Press / or / on the projector or remote control.

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.
Color Temperature
There are several preset color temperature settings available. The available settings
may vary according to the signal type selected.
• Normal: Maintains normal colorings for white.
• Cool: Makes images appear bluish white.
• Warm: Makes images appear reddish white.
Color Temperature Tuning
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,
and Blue.

Color Management
This function 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 R (Red), G (Green), B (Blue), C
(Cyan), M (Magenta), or Y (Yellow).
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.

Light source information
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 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 Dimming mode) + 1.0 x (hours used in Custom mode)
To obtain the light source hour information:
1. Go to Advanced Menu - Settings > Light Settings and press OK. The Light Settings page
appears.
2. Press to select Light Usage Time and press OK. The Light Usage Time information is
displayed.
You can also get the light source hour information on the Information menu.
