Tip
When adjusting the lens, each time you press the PATTERN button
of the remote control or the LENS button on the unit, the lens
adjustment function switches as follows.
• Depending on the installation location of the unit, you may not be
able to control it with the remote control. In this case, point the
remote control at the remote control detector of the unit.
• When using a screen with an uneven surface, stripes pattern may
rarely appear on the screen depending on the distance between the
screen and the unit or the zooming magnifications. This is not a
malfunction of the unit.

picture. As it has been optimized at the factory default, normally
adjustment is not required (page 27).
