Projector Placement

You can place the projector on almost any flat surface to project an image.

You can also install the projector in a ceiling mount if you want to use it in a fixed location. An optional ceiling mount is required when suspending the projector from a ceiling.

Note the following points when selecting a projector location:

• Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface or install it using a compatible mount.

• Leave plenty of space around and under the projector for ventilation, and do not place it on top of or next to anything that could block the vents.

• Place the projector so it squarely faces the screen, not at an angle.

If you cannot install the projector squarely facing the screen, correct

any resulting keystone distortion using the projector controls. For the best quality images, we recommend adjusting the installation position of the projector to achieve the correct image size and shape.

Warning

• You must install a ceiling mount when suspending the projector from a ceiling. If you do not install the projector correctly, it could fall and cause damage or injury.

• Do not use adhesives on the ceiling mount fixing points to prevent the screws from loosening, or use lubricants, oils, or similar substances 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 ceiling mount and could damage the projector.

• Failure to install the ceiling mount and projector may cause the projector to fall. After installing the specific Epson mount that supports your projector, make sure you secure the mount to all of the projector's ceiling mount fixing points. Also, secure the projector and the mounts using wire that is strong enough to hold their weight.

• Do not install the projector in a location subject to high levels of dust or humidity, or in a location subject to smoke or steam. Otherwise, it could cause a fire or electric shock to occur. The projector's case could also deteriorate and be damaged causing the projector to fall from the mount.

Examples of environments that could cause the projector to fall due to case deterioration

• Locations subject to excessive smoke or airborne oil particles, such as factories

or kitchens

• Locations containing volatile solvents or chemicals, such as factories or

laboratories

• Locations where the projector could be subjected to detergents or chemicals,

such as factories or kitchens

• Locations in which aroma oils are often used, such as relaxation rooms

• Near devices that produce excessive smoke, airborne oil particles, or foam at

events

Projector Placement

Warning

• Do not cover the projector's air intake or air exhaust vents. If the vents are covered, the internal temperature could rise and cause a fire.

• Do not use or store the projector in locations where it will be subject to dust or dirt. Otherwise, the quality of the projected image may decline, or the air filter may become clogged, resulting in a malfunction or fire.

• Do not install the projector on an unstable surface or in a location beyond the weight specifications of the projector. Otherwise, it could fall or topple causing an accident and injury.

• When installing the projector in a high position, take measures to prevent falling by using wires to ensure safety in an emergency, such as an earthquake, and to prevent accidents. If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.

• Do not install in locations where salt damage could occur, or in locations subject to corrosive gas such as sulphuric gas from hot springs. Otherwise, corrosion could cause the projector to fall. It could also cause the projector to malfunction.

Attention

• Do not operate the projector on its side. This may cause the projector to malfunction.

• If you are using the projector at altitudes above 1,500 m, set the High Altitude Mode setting to On in the projector's menu to ensure the projector's internal temperature is regulated properly.

s Extended > Operation > High Altitude Mode

• Try not to setup the projector in locations subject to high humidity and dust, or in locations subject to smoke from fires or tobacco smoke.

Turning On the Projector

Warning

• Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is on. This can damage your eyes and is especially dangerous for children.

• When turning on the projector at a distance using the remote control, make sure there is no one looking into the lens.

• During projection, do not block the light from the projector with a book or other objects. If the light from the projector is blocked, the area on which the light shines becomes hot which could cause it to melt, burn, or start a fire. Also, the lens may get hot due to the reflected light which could cause the projector to malfunction. To stop projection, use the A/V Mute function, or turn off the projector.

• A mercury lamp with high internal pressure is used as the projector's light source. If the lamp is subjected to vibrations or shocks, or if it is used for an overly extended length of time, the lamp may break or it may not turn on. If the lamp explodes, gases may escape and small fragments of glass may be scattered which could cause an injury. Be sure to observe the instructions below.

• Do not disassemble or damage the lamp or subject it to any impacts.

• Do not bring your face close to the projector while it is in use.

• Particular care should be taken when the projector is installed to a ceiling, as

small pieces of glass may fall down when the lamp cover is removed. When cleaning the projector or replacing the lamp yourself, be very careful not to allow such pieces of glass to get into the eyes or mouth.

If the lamp breaks, ventilate the area immediately, and contact a doctor if any fragments of broken glass are inhaled or get into the eyes or mouth.

Adjusting the Image Height

If you are projecting from a table or other flat surface and the image is too high or low, you can adjust the image height using the projector's adjustable feet.

The larger the angle of tilt, the harder it becomes to focus. Locate the projector so that it only needs to be tilted at a small angle.

Turn on the projector and display an image.

To adjust the front foot, pull up on the foot release lever and lift the

front of the projector.

The foot extends from the projector.

If the image is tilted, rotate the rear feet to adjust their height.

Extend the rear foot

Retract the rear foot

If the projected image is unevenly rectangular, you need to adjust the image shape.

You can adjust the position up to approximately 12 degrees.

Release the lever to lock the foot.

Image Shape

You can project an even, rectangular image by placing the projector directly in front of the center of the screen and keeping it level. If you place the projector at an angle to the screen, or tilt it up or down, or off to the side, you may need to correct the image shape.

After correction, your image is slightly smaller.

For the best quality images, we recommend adjusting the installation position of the projector to achieve the correct image size and shape.

Projector Security Features

You can secure your projector to deter theft or prevent unintended use by setting up the following security features:

• Password security to prevent people who do not know the password from using the projector, and prevent changes to the startup screen and other settings.

This acts as an anti-theft function as the projector cannot be used even if it is stolen, and you can limit who can use the projector.

• Button lock security to block operation of the projector using the buttons on the control panel.

This is useful at events or shows when you want to deactivate all buttons during projection or at schools when you want to limit button operation.

• Security cabling to physically secure the projector in place.
