Quick Setup
Before using the projector, make sure you read the safety instructions in the
online User’s Guide.
Choose a location
Keep the projector level and place it at a height so its lens is even with the top
or bottom of the screen and is centered horizontally. If this isn’t possible, use
the lens shift feature or the keystone correction button on the projector to
reposition the image (see “Adjust the image”).
In order to view 3D images correctly, RF 3D glasses must be worn within 32 feet
(10 m) of the projector. Use the image below to determine the viewing distance
for 3D projection (the shading represents the 3D viewing area):
