Philips PXG10 - Manual (Page 10)

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.
