6. SET UP POSITIONING THE PROJECTOR AND SCREEN Position the projector perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level to achieve an optimal image. Move the projector forward or backward if the edges of the image are distorted. • The projector lens should be centred in the middle of the screen. If the lens centre is not perpendicular to the screen, the image will be distorted, making viewing difficult. • Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly onto the screen washes out colours, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room. • A polarising screen cannot be used with this projector. • Place the projector at the required distance from the screen according to the desired picture size (see the table below). • Optional wide and telephoto lenses from Philips are available for specialised application. Please see your local Philips Authorised LCD Projector Dealer for details on the optional lenses. Standard mode (4:3) Image size Projection distance (diag.)
