Page 129: Install Facing In The Correct Direction
Before Installation ■ Install Facing in the Correct Direction The projector can be installed facing any direction* , as shown below. However, projection upward ( ) or downward ( ) may shorten the useful life of the lamp. Installation in these orientations also requires projector settings adjustment.
Page 130: Installation Procedure
Installation Procedure Setting Up the Projector ■ Positioning the Projector in Front of the Screen Place the projector in front of the screen. On some screens, colors may appear distorted when images are viewed from the Screen side, but this does not indicate a problem Viewing areas with the projector.
Page 131: Projection From High Surfaces
Installation Procedure ■ Projection from High Surfaces For projection from a shelf or other high surface, the projector can be installed upside-down and the projected image inverted. In this case, attach the option feet on top of the projector. When setting the projector on a high surface for projection, be sure the surface is flat and stable.

Installation Procedure Removing hole caps labeled (2) Open the lamp cover and use a screwdriver or similar tool to push off the caps from below. Hole cap • Keep the caps in a safe place to avoid losing them. • The option feet can be used in conjunction with the adjustable feet. When changing the projection position with adjustable feet, you can make the projector more stable by attaching option feet to the two holes toward the back of the bottom surface.
Page 133: Relationship Of Image Size To Projection Distance
Distance The size of projected images is determined by zooming, relative to the distance from the projector to the screen. (Optical zooming on the WUX450/WX520, and electronic zooming on the WUX400ST/WX450ST.) Refer to the following table and decide the distance between the projector and screen.
