and check the table below for the cause of the problem.

FRONT/REAR
This setting should be changed in
accordance with the projector
setting-up method.
Set to “FRONT” when using a
normal reflective screen with the
projector positioned in front of the
screen, and set to “REAR” when
using a translucent screen with the
projector positioned behind the
screen.

for narrow rooms where a high
picture luminance is not essential or
for watching movies.
