Before Using the Remote Control
Inserting the Batteries
The batteries are not inserted into the remote control at the time of purchase, and so you
need to insert them before the remote control can be used.
Remove the battery compartment cover.
While pressing the cover here, lift the cover up.
Insert the batteries.
Make sure the polarities of the batteries are correct.
Replace the battery compartment cover.
After inserting the tab of the battery cover, push the
cover down until it clicks into place.

Battery Replacement Period and Cautions
If the remote control becomes slow in responding or if it stops working, the batteries
may be spent. If this happens, replace the batteries with fresh ones.
Guide for battery replacement: Approximately 3 months if used for 30
minutes per day
*The replacement period given above may vary depending on the amount of usage
and the ambient conditions.
Use the following type of batteries as replacements.
Alkaline dry cell LR6 (AA) x 2
Using the Remote Control
Set the R/C switch on the remote control to
the ON position.
Remote control light-receiving area
Point the remote control
light-emitting area toward one of
the remote control lightreceiving area on the projector
and operate the remote control
buttons.
Do not allow sunlight or light from fluorescent lamps to shine directly
onto the projector's remote control light-receiving area, otherwise it may
interfere with the reception of signals from the remote control.

Screen Size and Setting-up Distance
Setup
The distance between the projector and the screen determines the actual image size.
Recommended distance : 0.9m - 12.4m (3.0 - 40.7 ft.)
While referring to the table below, position the projector so that the image size is smaller
than the screen size.

* When installing against a wall, leave a
space of about 20 cm (7.9 inches) between
the projector and the wall.
The projector’s lens allows a zoom ratio of up to about 1.35. The
image size at the maximum zoom setting is about 1.35 times bigger
than the image size at the minimum zoom setting.
The image size will be reduced when keystone correction is carried
out.
Setting-up Methods
The projector supports the following five projection methods, allowing you
to choose the best method for displaying your images.
After setting up the projector, refer to the User's Guide for details on turning
on the power and adjusting settings such as the screen size.
("Basic Operations" in User's Guide)
When setting up the projector, be sure to first read the
Instructions/World-Wide Warranty Term
s for information on the
safety precautions that must be observed at this time.

are included.
This can prevent the control panel
from directly touching the
installation surface.

Connecting to a Video Source
Turn off the power for both the projector and the video source before connecting them.
If the power for either device is on at the time of connection, damage may result.
Check the shapes of the cable connectors and the device ports before making the
connections. If you try to force a connector to fit a device port with a different shape or
number of terminals, a malfunction or damage to the connector or port may result.
Refer to the "Appendices - Optional Accessories" in the separate User's Guide for details
of the optional cables.

Connecting to a Computer
The projector cannot be connected to some types of computer, or projection of images
may not be possible even if actual connection is possible. Make sure that the computer
you intend to use satisfies the conditions given below.
Condition 1: The computer must have a image signal output port.
Check that the computer has a port such as an RGB port, monitor port or CRT port which
can output image signals. If the computer has a built-in monitor, or if using a laptop
computer, it may not be possible to connect the computer to the projector, or alternatively
you may need to purchase a separate external output port. Refer to the documentation for
your computer under a heading such as "Connecting an external monitor" or similar for
further details.
Condition 2: The display resolution and frequency of the computer must be listed
in the "Appendices - List of Supported Signal Resolutions".
Some computers may have functions for changing the output resolution. For details, refer
to the section of the documentation provided with your computer and change the setting to
within a range given in the list of supported resolutions.
the power for either device is on at the time of connection, damage may result.
Check the shapes of the cable connectors and the device ports before making the
connections. If you try to force a connector to fit a device port with a different shape
or number of terminals, damage to the connector or port may result.
You may need to purchase a separate adapter to connect the
computer to the projector, depending on the shape of the computer's
monitor port. For details, refer to the section of the documentation
provided with your computer.
The commercially available adapter set is required in order to connect
the projector to a Macintosh computer.
