Preparing

Installing

Projected Image and Position of Projector

Install the projector as follows.
Installing in parallel with the screen
If the projector is installed at an angle to the screen, keystone distortion occurs in the projected image.
Adjust the projector's position so that it is installed in parallel with the screen.
If the projector cannot be installed in front of the screen, you can adjust the position of the image
c
If the projector is tilted, the projected image is also tilted.
Install the projector horizontally so that both sides are at the same height.
If the projector cannot be installed horizontally, you can adjust the projector's tilt with the front foot.
by using lens shift.
Installing the projector horizontally by adjusting the height of either side

Various Setting Methods

Warning
A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a ceiling (ceiling mount). If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.
If you use adhesives, lubricants, or oil on the ceiling mount fixing points to prevent screws from loosening, or if you use things such as lubricants or oils on the projector, the projector case may crack causing it to fall from its ceiling mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the projector and also damage the projector.
Do not install it on an unstable shelf or in a place out of load range. Otherwise, it could fall or topple causing an accident and injury.
When installing it in a high position such as on a shelf, take measures against falling by using wires to ensure the safety in an emergency, such as an earthquake, and prevent accidents. If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.
Do not block the air intake vent and air exhaust vent of the projector. Blocking its air intake vent and air exhaust vent may trap heat inside causing fire.
Attention
Do not setup the projector in locations subject to high humidity and dust, or in locations subject to smoke from fires or tobacco smoke.
Do not use the projector installed vertically. Doing so could cause a malfunction.
Clean the air filter once every three months. Clean it more often if the environment is particularly dusty.

p.105
Placing on a table and projecting
You can install the projector on a table in your living room or on a low shelf to project images.
Suspending from the ceiling and projecting
You can suspend the projector from the ceiling with the optional ceiling mount to project images.

Projection Distance and Lens Shift Maximum Values

The size of the projection increases as the projector is moved away from the screen.
Use the table below to setup the projector at the optimum position from the screen. The values given here are for your reference only.
The maximum lens shift adjustment values are shown in the following table.
The projected image becomes smaller after correcting distortion. Increase the projection distance
c
to fit the projected image to the screen size.
When adjusting the projection position vertically in lens shift
A: Distance from the center of the lens to the bottom edge of the projected image (when lens shift is raised
to its highest level)
