with an enjoyable home theater viewing experience. For the best results, please read this manual through carefully as it is your guide through the control menus and operation.

Important safety instructions

Your projector is designed and tested to meet the latest standards for safety of information technology equipment. However, to ensure safe use of this product, it is important that you follow the instructions mentioned in this manual and marked on the product.

1. Please read this user manual before you operate your projector. Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

2. Always place the projector on a level, horizontal surface during operation.

- Do not place the projector on an unstable cart,

stand, or table as it may fall and be damaged;

- Do not place inflammables near the projector;

- Do not use if tilted at an angle of more than 10

degrees left to right, nor at angle of more than 15 degrees front to back.

Overview

Replacing the remote control batteries

• Operating the projector from the front

• Operating the projector from the rear

1. To open the battery cover, turn the remote control over to view its back, push on the finger grip on the cover and slide it up in the direction of the arrow as illustrated. The cover will slide off.

2. Remove any existing batteries (if necessary) and install two AAA batteries observing the battery polarities as indicated in the base of the battery compartment. Positive (+) goes to positive and negative (-) goes to negative.

3. Refit the cover by aligning it with the base and sliding it back down into position. Stop when it clicks into place.

• Avoid leaving the remote control and batteries in an excessive heat or humid environment like the kitchen, bathroom, sauna, sunroom or in a closed car.

• Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the battery manufacturer.

• Dispose of the used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions and local environment regulations for your region.

• Never throw the batteries into a fire. There may be danger of an explosion.

• If the batteries are dead or if you will not be using the remote control for an extended period of time, remove the batteries to avoid damage to the remote control from possible battery leakage.

Remote control effective range

The remote control must be held at an angle within 30 degrees perpendicular to the projector's IR remote control sensor(s) to function correctly. The distance between the remote control and the sensor(s) should not exceed 8 meters (~ 26 feet).

Make sure that there are no obstacles between the remote control and the IR sensor(s) on the projector that might obstruct the infra-red beam.

Ceiling mounting the projector

We want you to have a pleasant experience using your BenQ projector, so we need to bring this safety matter to your attention to prevent damage to person and property.

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

Overview

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

You can purchase a BenQ projector ceiling mount 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 Kensington lock slot on the projector and the base of the ceiling mount bracket. This will perform the secondary role of restraining the projector should its attachment to the mounting bracket become loose.

Overview

Positioning your projector

Choosing a location

Your projector is designed to be installed in one of four possible installation locations.

Your room layout or personal preference will dictate which installation location you select. Take into consideration the size and position of your screen, the location of a suitable power outlet, as well as the location and distance between the projector and the rest of your equipment.

1. Front:

Select this location with the projector placed near the floor in front of the screen. This is the most common way to position the projector for quick setup and portability.

2. Front Ceiling:

Select this location with the projector suspended from the ceiling in front of the screen.

Purchase the BenQ Projector Ceiling Mount Kit from your dealer to mount your projector on the ceiling.

*Set Front Ceiling after you turn the projector on.

3. Rear:

Select this location with the projector placed near the floor behind the screen.

Note that a special rear projection screen is required.

*Set Rear after you turn the projector on.

4. Rear Ceiling:

Select this location with the projector suspended from the ceiling behind the screen.

Note that a special rear projection screen and the BenQ Projector Ceiling Mount Kit are required for this installation location.

*Set Rear Ceiling after you turn the projector on.

*To set the projector position:

1. Press MENU/EXIT on the projector or remote control and then press / until the System Setup : Basic menu is highlighted.

2. Press / to highlight Projector Position and press / until the correct position is selected.

Positioning your projector

Obtaining a preferred projected image size

The distance from the projector lens to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video format each factors in the projected image size.

The projector should always be placed horizontally level (like flat on a table), and positioned directly perpendicular 90° right-angle square) to the screen. This prevents image distortion caused by angled projections (or projecting onto angled surfaces). If the projector is mounted on a ceiling, it must be mounted upside-down.

If the projector is positioned further away from the screen, the projected image size increases, and the vertical offset also increases proportionately.

When determining the positions of the screen and projector, you will need to account for both the projected image size and the vertical offset dimension, which are directly proportional to the projection distance.

How to determine the position of the projector for a given screen size

1. Determine the aspect ratio of your screen, 16:9 or 4:3?

2. Refer to the table and find the closest match to your screen size in the left columns labelled "Screen

dimensions". Using this value, look across this row to the right to find the corresponding average

distance from screen value in the column labelled "Average". This is the projection distance.

3. Decide the exact position of your projector according to the position of your screen and the adjustable lens shift range.

<Example> W750: If you are using a 120-inch, 4:3-aspect-ratio screen, please refer to "The screen aspect ratio is 4:3

and the projected picture is 16:9". The average projection distance is 3512 mm.

How to determine the recommended screen size for a given distance

This method can be used for situations where you have purchased this projector and would like to know what screen size will fit in your room.

The maximum screen size is limited by the physical space available in your room.

1. Determine the aspect ratio of your screen, 16:9 or 4:3?

2. Measure the distance between the projector and where you want to position the screen. This is the projection distance.

3. Refer to the table and find the closest match to your measurement in the average distance from screen column labelled "Average". Check that your measured distance is between the min. and max. distances listed on either side of the average distance value.

4. Using this value, look across that row to the left to find the corresponding screen diagonal listed in that row. That is the projected image size of the projector at that projection distance.

<Example> W750: If you have a 16:9-aspect-ratio screen and your measured projection distance was 4500 mm, please refer to "The screen aspect ratio is 16:9 and the projected picture is 16:9". The closest match in the "Average" column is 4464 mm. Looking across this row shows that a 140-inch screen is required.

Checking the min. and max. projection distance values in the columns of "Projection distance <D> [mm]"

on page 15 indicates that the 4500 mm measured projection distance will also fit the 130 and 150-inch

size screens. The projector can be adjusted (using the zoom control) to display on these different screen sizes at the projection distance. Be aware that these different screens have different vertical offset values.

If you place the projector in a different position (to that recommended), you will have to tilt it down or up to center the image on the screen. In these situations, some image distortion will occur. Use the Keystone function to correct the distortion. See "Correcting picture distortion" on page 27 for details.

Connecting with video equipment

HDMI cable

HDMI device: DVD player, digital tuner, etc.

To make sure you select a correct input source type for the HDMI signal, see "HDMI Settings" on

page 45 for details.

You can connect the projector to any type of video equipment, such as a VCR, DVD player, Blu-ray player, digital tuner, cable or satellite decoder, video game console or digital camera. You can also connect it to a desktop or laptop PC or Apple Macintosh system. You need only connect the projector to a source device using just one of the connecting methods, however each provides a different level of video quality. The method you choose will most likely depend upon the availability of matching terminals on both the projector and the Video source device as described below:

Preparations

When connecting a signal source to the projector, be sure to:

1. Turn off all equipment before making any connections.

2. Use only the correct type cables for each source with proper type plugs.

3. Ensure that all cable plugs are firmly fitted to the equipment jacks.

Note that all cables shown in the following connection diagrams may not be supplied with the projector (See

"Shipping contents" on page 6 for details). Most cables are commercially available from electronics stores.

Connecting HDMI devices

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) supports uncompressed video data transmission between compatible devices like DTV tuners, DVD players, Blu-ray players and displays over a single cable. It provides pure digital viewing and listening experience. You should use an HDMI cable when making connection between the projector and HDMI devices.
