Install batteries in the remote control. If the remote control has started to work erratically, replace the batteries.
1
Open the back cover.
Open the back cover in the direction of the arrow.
2
Install the batteries.
Place the two supplied batteries (AA/R6-size) in the remote control as illustrated below.
3
Close the back cover.
First fit the claws on the back cover in the case, then close the back cover in the direction of the arrow.
Precautions for using batteries
If batteries are used i ncorrectly, they may crack or leak liquid. This could cause a fire, burn, malfunction, or staining or damaging of the surroundings.
Beware of the following:
Do not mix new and old batteries.
Do not mix different types of batteries as they differ in
characteristics.
• Place batteries so they match the polarities indicated: (+) to (+) and (–) to (–).
Be sure to put the minus (–) end in first to avoid short-circuiting.
Use only designated batteries.
Remove the batteries if the remote is not to be used for a
prolonged period.
When the batteries are exhausted, replace them immediately. Otherwise, liquid could leak, or malfunction could occur due to leaking liquid. If the leaked liquid contacts the skin, wipe it off with a cloth, otherwise the skin could become rough.
Do not put batteries into a fire or try to recharge them.
Batteries run for six months to one year in normal use.
However, the batteries supplied are for confirming operation and may not run that long. When the remote control starts failing to work properly, replace the batteries with new ones.
This instruction below applies only to the use in Holland.

Installing the Projector
Projection Distance and Screen Size
The projectors projection lens is a zoom lens of about 1.5 x. The screen size at the maximum enlargement is 1.5 times that of the minimum size.
The projection distance that can be focused is 2.5 to 20 m. Install the projector within this range.
* Also, refer to the table of “Relationship between Projector Distances and Projector Screen Size” on page 19 as a referen ce.
Notes
For detailed relationship between projection distances and projection screen sizes, refer to Appendix A. The relationships for both 4:3 and 16:9 ratios are listed there.
When installing a screen, use a 4:3 aspect-ratio picture.
(A 16 : 9 aspect-ratio picture is projected based on the width of the range in which a 4:3 aspect-ratio picture is projected.)
The diagonal length of a 16:9 aspect-ratio screen is about 91.8% that of a 4:3 aspect-ratio screen. This value is only a guide
(reference).
If sunlight or lamp light strikes the projection screen directly, the picture tends to become pale and dim. Use a curtain or other means to shield the light.
Set the projector horizontally on a surface that is within the range of adjustable angles (up/down adjustment angle: +7° ; horizontal adjustment angle: ±1.5°).
If the keystone is adjusted, the projected screen becomes smaller.
When hanging from the ceiling, use a dedicated hanging fixture (not supplied).

Setting the Position Selecting Screw for Ceiling Mounting
When using the projector in an upside-down, ceiling-mounted position (inverted top-to-bottom and right-to-left), the “position selecting screw for ceiling mounting must be turned to switch to ceiling mounting. This will correct variance in color images (shading), which otherwise would occur in ceiling mounting. To revert to normal desktop setting, turn the position selecting screw for ceiling mounting back to the initial position (factory­shipped).
When using the projector in an upside-down, ceiling-mounted position:
Turn the position selecting screw for ceiling mounting fully counterclockwise (until it is turning idly).
To again use the projector in a normal desktop setting:
Turn the position selecting screw for ceiling mounting fully clockwise (until it firmly tightens).
For normal desktop mounting:
Turn the screw clockwise.
For upside-down, ceiling-mounting:
Turn the screw counterclockwise.
To ceiling-mount and adjust the projector, special expertise and technique are necessary. Be sure to ask your dealer or a specialist to perform this work.
To turn the position selecting screw for ceiling mounting, use a Philips screwdriver with a 30-mm or longer shank. The screw is located in the hole shown in the illustration.
Note
When using the projector in a ceiling-mounted position, you should reverse the projected image by changing the settings of Right Left rev. and Top Bottom inv. menus. For details, refer to page 53. You can also change these settings without receiving a video signal. In this case, refer to Menu Transition Diagram in No signal Menu Mode on page 37.

Replacing the Light-Source Lamp
The light-source lamp has a service life of approximately 1000 hours.
When the light-source lamp approaches the end of its service life, degradation progresses rapidly. The LAMP indicator and the message on the screen warn you that replacement of the lamp is required, as follows:
Purchase a new light-source lamps (Part No. : BHL5001-SU) from the authorized dealer where you purchased the projector, or consult the Service Center.
CAUTIONS
If the projector is set up in a constricted place which is unsuitable for work, and if you perform replacement work there, this could cause injury. Move the projector to a place large enough for work, and then replace the light-source lamp.
Use a genuine product for the light-source lamp. If you use other than a genuine product, this could cause a malfunction. Also, never use an old light-source lamp. This could cause marked degradation in performance or explode, possibly causing the projector to malfunction or broken pieces to injure you.
Do not replace the light-source lamp immediately after the projector has been used. The temperature of the light-source lamp is still high and could cause a burn. Allow a cooling period of one hour or more before performing replacement.
Before starting light-source lamp replacement work, turn off the MAIN POWER switch, and disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet. If you perform the replacement work with the power cord connected, this could cause injury or electric shock.
The light-source lamp used in this projector is a high pressure mercury lamp. Be careful when disposing of the light-source lamp. If anything is unclear, please consult your dealer.
