projection
For example, if you are using a 120-inch screen, the recommended projection
distance is 3454 mm.
If your measured projection distance is 5000 mm, the closest match in the "Distance
from screen (mm)" column is 4893 mm. Looking across this row shows that a 170''
(about 4.3 m) screen is required.
Note
• All measurements are approximate and may vary from the actual sizes.
We recommend that if you intend to permanently install the projector, you should
physically test the projection size and distance using the actual projector in situ before
you permanently install it, so as to make allowance for this projector's optical
characteristics. This will help you determine the exact mounting position so that it best
suits your installation location.
• To optimize your projection quality, we suggest doing the projection by following the
values in the non-gray cells.
• The values in the gray cells are for reference only.
Shifting the projection lens
Note
• Please stop turning the afjustment knob when you hear a clicking sound indicating the
the knob has reached its limit. Over-turning the knob may cause damage.

When Display Mode is set to User, you can adjust Bright, Vivid TV, Cinema induvudually.
The higher the value, the brighter the image. Adjust this control so
the black areas of the image appear just as black and that detail in
the dark areas is visible.
The higher the value, the greater the contrast. Use this to set the
peak white level after you have previously adjusted the Brightness
setting to suit your selected input and viewing environment.
Lower setting produces less saturated colors. If the setting is too
high, colors on the image will be overpowering, which makes the
image unrealistic.

TintThe higher the value, the more greenish the picture becomes. The
lower the value, the more reddish the picture becomes.
SharpnessThe higher the value, the sharper the picture becomes.
Gamma Selection
Gamma refers to the relationship between input source and picture
brightness. Choose a preferred gamma mode from among 1.8/2.0/
2.1/2.2/2.3/2.4/2.5/2.6/User.
HDR Brightness
The projector can automatically adjust the brightness levels of your
image according to the input source. You can also manually select a
brightness level to display better picture quality. When the value is
higher, the image becomes brighter; when the value is lower, the
image becomes darker.

Color Management
This function provides six sets (RGBCMY) of colors to be adjusted.
When you select each color, you can independently adjust its range
and saturation according to your preference.
• Primary Color: Selects a color from among R (Red), G
(Green), B (Blue), C (Cyan), M (Magenta), or Y (Yellow).
• Hue: Increase in the range will
include colors consisted of more
proportions of its two adjacent
colors. Please refer to the
illustration for how the colors relate
to each other.
For example, if you select Red and
set its range at 0, only pure red in
the projected picture will be
selected. Increasing its range will
include red close to yellow and red close to magenta.
• Saturation: Adjusts the values to your preference. Every
adjustment made will reflect to the image immediately. For
example, if you select Red and set its value at 0, only the
saturation of pure red will be affected.
Note
• Saturation is the amount of that color in a video picture. Lower
settings produce less saturated colors; a setting of “0” removes that
color from the image entirely. If the saturation is too high, that color
will be overpowering and unrealistic.
• Gain: Adjusts the values to your preference. The contrast level
of the primary color you select will be affected. Every
adjustment made will reflect to the image immediately.
Note
When "White" is selected, "Hue/Saturation/Gain" is changed into
•
Red Gain/Green Gain/Blue Gain.

• Off: If this is selected, the projector will not send electronic signal
out when it is turned on.
We recommend you use the High Altitude when your environment is
between 1500 m –3000 m above sea level, and ambient temperature
is between 0°C–30°C.
Operation under "High Altitude" may cause a higher decibel
operating noise level because of increased fan speed necessary to
improve overall system cooling and performance.
If you use this projector under other extreme conditions excluding the
above, it may display auto shut-down symptoms, which is designed
to protect your projector from over-heating. In cases like this, you
should switch to High Altitude mode to solve these symptoms.
However, this is not to state that this projector can operate under any
and all harsh or extreme conditions.

Maintenance
The projector needs proper maintenance. You should keep the lens clean as dust, dirt
or spots will project on the screen and diminish image quality. If any other parts need
replacing, contact your dealer or qualified service personnel. When cleaning any part
of the projector, always switch off and unplug the projector first.
Warning
• Never open any of the covers on the projector. Dangerous electrical voltages inside the
projector can cause severe injury. Do not attempt to service this product yourself. Refer
all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Replacing the Lamp
As the projector operates over time, the brightness of the projector lamp gradually
decreases and the lamp becomes more susceptible to breakage. We recommend
replacing the lamp if a warning message is displayed. Do not attempt to replace the
lamp yourself. Contact the qualified service personnel for replacement.
Note
• The lamp is extremely hot right after turning off the projector. If you touch the lamp, you
may scald your finger. When you replace the lamp, wait for at least 45 minutes for the
lamp to cool down.
• Do not touch the lamp glass at any time. The lamp may explode due to improper
handling, including the touching of the lamp glass.
• Lamp lifetime may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use.
There is no guarantee of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or
terminate their lifetime in a shorter period of time than other similar lamps.
• A lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of
use as its lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the
environment or conditions in which the projector and lamp are being used.
• Wear protective gloves and eyeglasses when fixing or detaching the lamp.
• Faster on-off-cycles will damage the lamp and reduce lamp life. Wait at least for 5
minutes to turn off the projector after powering on.
• Do not operate the lamp in proximity to paper, cloth, or other combustible material nor
cover it with such materials.
• Do not operate the lamp in an atmosphere containing an inflammable substance, such
as thinner.
• Thoroughly ventilate the area or the room when operating the lamp in an oxygen
atmosphere (in the air). If ozone is inhaled, it could cause headaches, nausea, dizziness,
and other symptoms.
• The inorganic mercury is involved in the lamp. If the lamp bursts, the mercury inside the
lamp will be exposed. Leave the area immediately if the lamp shatters while being
operated and ventilate the area for at least 30 minutes in order to avoid the inhalation of
mercury fumes. Otherwise it could be harmful to user’s health.
