Installing the Projector
Precautions for Installation
Please read the following properly when installing the projector.
Installation Environment
Please do not install or use this projector in the following places. The projector is a precision device and doing so could cause a fire or malfunction.
• Where there is water, humidity or dust.
• Where the projector may be subjected to oil, smoke or
cigarette smoke.
• On a soft surface such as a carpet or cushion.
• Where the projector may be subjected to direct sunlight.
• Where temperature is high or low.
Allowable operation temperature range : +5°C to +35°C
Allowable relative humidity range: 20% to 80%
(no condensation)
Allowable storage temperature range: –10°C to +60°C
•Any room in which there is smoke and grease.
Even where smoke and grease levels are minimal, prolonged exposure will affect the projector. The projector
emits heat and optical components are cooled down by
taking in large amount of air. The optical path being soiled
by grease/dirt can cause images to become dark and
the color projection to deteriorate. After soiling, removing grease/dirt totally from the optical parts is not possible.
Precaution for Usage
This projector uses a light-source lamp which reaches
high temperatures when projecting.
Please DO NOT use it in the following ways as doing
so may result in fire or malfunction.
• Projecting images while the projector is on its side.
• Projecting images outside the specified angle.
Do not use the projector while it is set more than ±5°
horizontally (left/right), or more than ±25° vertically (up/
down). This could cause color variation or shorten the
lamp life.
• Use while blocking the exhaust vents.
Minimum Space Required
Do not use a cover which may enclose the projector
air-tight or block the exhaust vents. Allow sufficient
space around the projector. When the projector is enclosed in a space of the following dimensions, use an
air conditioner so that internal and external temperatures are the same.

Up to approximately 30° upward
and downward from the horizontal line.
Mounting the Projector
When mounting of the projector is required, do it using the embedded three screw holes (M6 nuts) at the bottom of the projector.
Precaution for ceiling-mount
•To ceiling-mount and adjust the projector, special expertise and techniques are necessary. Be sure to ask your
dealer or specialist to perform the work.
• Do not mount on places that will be subjected to knocks
and vibrations.
• As the depth of the screw holes is 10mm, use screws
shorter than 10mm but longer than 6mm. Otherwise, the
screws will damage the internal parts of the projector
causing malfunction.

Installing the Projector
Projection Distance and Screen Size
• This projector uses 1.3x manual zoom lens for projection.
• The range of projection while retaining good focus is approximately 1.6m to approximately 12m when the aspect ratio of the
screen is 4:3. Install the projector within this range.
• If the KEYSTONE is adjusted, the screen becomes smaller. (☞ page 30)

Effective Range and Distance of the Remote Control Unit
The operable distance of the remote control unit is about 7m for direct reception. The remote control unit can be used by having the
transmission signal reflected off a screen. In this case, please set the total distance A + B where A is the distance fromprojector to screen and B is the distance from screen to remote control, within 7m. The operable angles of the remote control
unit are 30˚ right and left, and 20˚ up and down.
䡵 Using as a wireless remote control unit
As the effect of signals reflected from the remote control unit differ with the type of screen used, effective range and distance
may decrease.
Screen
Aim the remote control unit towards the remote sensor on the front or rear of the projector. The operable
distance of the remote control unit is about 7m for direct reception. If the remote control fails to work properly, move closer to the projector.
