Preparation

Preparation for projection
1. Attach the provided power cord to the projector.
2. Plug the power cord in the wall outlet.
3. Remove the lens cap.
Warning:
• Do not look into the lens directly when the projector
is on.
• The lens cap is for protecting the lens. If you leave
the lens cap on the lens with the projector turned
on, it may be deformed because of heat build-
up. Remove the lens cap when you turn on the
projector.
• One of power cords for the U.S., Europe,
U.K., Australia, and South Korea is provided
appropriately.
• This projector uses the power plug of three-pin
grounding type. Do not remove the grounding pin
from the power plug. If the power plug doesn't fit
your wall outlet, ask an electrician to change the
wall outlet.
• In case that the power cord for the U.S. is provided
with this projector, never connect this cord to any
outlet or power supply using other voltages or
frequencies than rated. If you want to use a power
supply using other voltage than rated, prepare an
appropriate power cord separately.
• Use 100-240 V AC 50/60 Hz to prevent fire or
electric shock.
• Do not place any objects on the power cord or
do not place the projector near heat sources to
prevent damage to the power cord. If the power
cord should be damaged, contact your dealer for
replacement because it may cause fire or electric
shock.
• Do not modify or alter the power cord. If the power
cord is modified or altered, it may cause fire or
electric shock.
Caution:
• Plug in the power cord firmly. When unplugging,
hold and pull the power plug, not the power cord.
• Do not plug in or out the power cord with your
hand wet. It may cause electric shock.
• When you move the projector, turn off the power,
unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, and
then remove the connected cords. Otherwise, the
power cord may be damaged, resulting in fire or
electric shock.
• If dust or metallic substance is on or around the
pins of the power plug, unplug the power cord and
clean it using a dry cloth. If you continue to use the
projector without cleaning, it may result in fire or
electric shock. Clean the power plug periodically at
least once a year.
• Be sure to unplug the power cord from the wall
outlet if the projector will not be used for a long
period of time. Otherwise, it may cause fire.
Adjusting the position of the
projected image
To adjust the position of the projected image on the
screen, use the LENS SHIFT dial.
1. Rotate the LENS SHIFT dial inside the top cover of
the projector to adjust the image position.
• Rotating the dial clockwise (or counterclockwise
for a ceiling-mount projector) moves the image
up.
• Rotating the dial counterclockwise (or clockwise
for a ceiling-mount projector) moves the image
down.
• Be careful not to be caught in the opening in the
lens while the lens is moving.
• While the lens shift is working, the screen may
flicker.
• Projected images may become distorted, have
decreased resolution, or have shadows at their
corners if they are positioned close to the top or
bottom.
Adjustment of the projection angle
For the best projection, project images on a flat screen
installed at 90 degrees to the floor. If necessary, tilt the
projector using the two adjustment feet on the bottom
of the projector.
Using the adjustment feet (front)
1. Tilt up the projector to the appropriate angle.
2. Rotate the adjustment feet (front) for fine
adjustment.
Important:
• Install the screen on a flat wall at 90 degrees to the
floor.
• Slanting the projector more than ±10° (right and
left) or ±15° (front and rear) may cause trouble or
explosion of the lamp. You can tilt the projector up
to 8 degrees using the adjustment feet only.
• Images may not be projected in a shape of a
regular rectangle or with its aspect ratio 4:3,
depending on the installation conditions of the
projector and the screen.
