Using the Projector
The projector is capable of correcting for keystone (trapezoidal)
distortion caused when the projector is tilted upward or

Control selection of the on-screen display (OSD) menu. Refer

information. The keystone effect can be corrected when the
projector is tilted upward up to 30 degrees or downward up to
40 degrees.

size up to 20%. To increase the image size, turn the projector
