pressing it down.

• If buttons on the remote control are inoperative when you attempt to operate the
projector, replace the batteries with new ones.

• Do not drop the remote control or subject it to impact.

• Do not spill any liquids on the remote control. Doing so may cause a malfunction.

Pay attention to the following points when handling the batteries.
Failing to do so could result in a fire or personal injury.

• Do not heat, short circuit or disassemble the batteries, or place
them in a fire.

• Do not attempt to recharge the batteries that are included with the
remote control.

2 Insert batteries.

Insert 2 new AAA
batteries in the
compartment with the
+ and – terminals
positioned correctly.

3 Close the

compartment lid.

Slide the lid until you
hear a click to
securely close it.

Before Use

• Remove the batteries when they are flat or when the remote control
will not be used for a long period of time.

• When replacing the batteries, replace both at the same time. Also,
do not use two batteries of a different type at the same time.

• Insert the batteries with the + and - terminals in the correct
directions.

• If any liquid from inside the batteries leaks out and contacts your
skin, be sure to wash the liquid off thoroughly.

Installation Procedure

Before setting up the projector, be sure to read “Before Installation” (P22).

Setting Up the Projector

■ Positioning the Projector in Front of the Screen

Place the projector in front of the screen.

• To avoid keystone distortion, install the
projector so that it is at right angles to the
screen.

• The screen must not be exposed to direct
sunlight or light from lighting equipment. In
a bright room, it is recommended that
lights be turned off, curtains be drawn, and
other steps taken to make the screen
easier to see.

Optical axis

Screen

■ Floor Installation

To adjust the projection position when the projector is installed on the floor, use the
lens shift function (P47, P61) to adjust up / down / left / right. You can also use the
adjustable feet to incline the projector upward by up to 6°.
For information about the relationship between screen size and projection distance,
refer to page 43.

Lens shift

Adjustable feet

■ Installation Tilted Upward

To correct keystone distortion when the projector is tilted upward (using adjustable
feet, for example), perform keystone correction (P67) or corner adjustment (P68).

40

Installation Procedure

■ Installation on High Surfaces

For projection from a shelf or other high surface, the projector can be installed
upside-down and the projected image inverted.

When setting the projector on a
high surface for projection, be sure
the surface is flat and stable.
Failure to do so poses a risk of the
projector falling and causing
accidents or injury.

■ Ceiling Mounting or Rear Projection

You can mount the projector on the ceiling (ceiling mounting) with it turned upside
down or place it behind the screen (rear projection) if you use a translucent screen.

Basic Guide Installation Procedure

Ceiling mounting Rear projection

Make sure to use the optional ceiling attachment. For the ceiling attachment, refer
to “Option” (P207). For details, refer to the assembly and installation manual
provided with the ceiling attachment.

41

Installation Procedure

Mounting the Projector on the Ceiling

You can mount the projector on the ceiling.
The ceiling attachment (part No.: RS-CL11)
is required in order to mount the projector on
the ceiling. Depending on the installation
environment, an extension pipe
(part No.: RS-CL08 or RS-CL09) may also
be required. Contact the Canon Customer
Support Center for more detailed
information.

• Make sure to use the optional ceiling attachment.

• You should never install the ceiling attachment by yourself.

If you mount the projector on the ceiling, you have to invert the projected image by
selecting [Image flip H/V] from the menu. (P105)

42

Installation Procedure

Relationship Between Image Size and Projecting Distance

The projected image size is determined by the distance between the projector and
the screen (projection distance) as well as the zoom. Refer to the following table
and decide the distance between the projector and screen.
