Setting up
Adjust the projection size.
The size of the projected image is basically determined by
the distance from the projector's lens to the screen.

The height from the centre of the lens to the bottom of

Lens shift adjustment
The lens shift adjustment can be used to position the image without distorting it
and is especially useful when using the projector in the following locations.
Hanging from a ceiling
A screen in a high location
Projector situated to the side so that the screen can be viewed sitting right in front of it
Projector situated on a shelf, etc.

Connecting image sources

Turn the power off for both the projector and the signal source before connecting them. If the power for
either device is on at the time of connection, damage may result.
Check the shapes of the cable connectors and the device ports before making the connections. If you try to
force a connector to fit a device port with a different shape or number of terminals, a malfunction or damage
to the connector or port may result.

When projecting from the side of the screen
When installing against a wall, leave a space of 20 cm (7.9 in.) or more between the
projector and the wall.
A special method of installation is required in order to suspend the projector from a ceiling.
Please contact your dealer if you would like to use this installation method.
If installing on a ceiling, you can change
the orientation of the EPSON logo plate
that would otherwise be upside-down.
Press your finger against the air exhaust
end of the plate. The opposite end of the
plate will lift up, so that you can pull it out
slightly and turn it around.
Removal
Loosen the fixing screws until
they come away from the
projector, and then lift up the
cable cover to remove it.
Securely tighten.
You can use a Phillips
screwdriver or a coin to tighten
the fixing screws.

Battery replacement period
If delays in the responsiveness of the remote control occur or if it does
not operate after it has been used for some time, it probably means that
the batteries are becoming flat. If this happens, replace the batteries
with two new batteries. Use two new AA alkaline batteries as
replacement batteries.
