Projector Placement

You can install the projector on a wall or ceiling, or place it on a table to
project images.
To install the projector on a wall, you must use an optional mount. To mount
the projector from a ceiling or vertically on a desk, you can use a
commercially available mount compatible with the VESA Mounting Interface
Standard (100 × 100 mm).
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
a
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.
• When you install the projector to a fixed location, turn on the Fixed
Installation setting in the projector's Installation menu.
• When you place the projector vertically, turn on the Vertical Installation
setting in the projector's Installation menu.
Warning
• A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from
a wall or ceiling. If you do not install the projector correctly, it could fall and
cause damage or injury.
• Do not use adhesives on the wall mount plate fixing points or other 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 mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the mount and
could damage the projector.
• 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 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.
Attention
• If you are using the projector at altitudes above 1500 m, set the High Altitude
Mode setting to On in the projector's Installation menu to ensure the projector's
internal temperature is regulated properly.
• 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.
