- When using the projector at altitudes above 2,300 m (7,545.8'), or when projecting upward or downward:
Adjust projector installation settings from the menu (P93). Failure to adjust the settings may shorten the lamp life or damage the lamp.
- Do not install the projector facing the wrong direction. Install the projector so that it is not tilted left or right by more than 10^ . (P25)
- Do not block the air intake or exhaust vents. Blocking the vents may trap heat inside the projector, which may shorten the useful life of optical components or other parts and damage the projector.
• Install the projector leaving at least 50 cm (1.6') between air intake/exhaust vents and walls. Failure to do so may trap heat inside the projector and damage it.
- Do not place any objects on top of the projector that may change shape or color due to heat.
- Do not install the projector in a location that is damp, or where there is a lot of dust, oily smoke or tobacco smoke. Doing so could cause contamination of optical components such as the lens and the mirror and may result in deterioration of image quality.
- Do not install the projector near high-voltage electrical power lines or an electrical power source.
- Clean the air filter regularly. (P166) Dust that accumulates inside over long periods without cleaning may eventually damage the projector or affect picture quality.
Precautions When Carrying/Shipping the Projector
Prepare the projector as described below before carrying it.
- Disconnect the cables connected to the projector. Carrying the projector with the cables attached may cause an accident.
- Retract the adjustable feet before moving the projector. Leaving the feet extended may cause damage.
Precautions for Installation
Be sure to read “Safety Instructions” and “For Safe Use” (P7 – P21). Also take the following precautions during installation.
- Do not strike the projector or subject it to impact. Doing so may cause a malfunction.
- Do not install the projector so that it is inclined or standing vertically. The projector may be damaged if it tips over.
- Do not block the air intake or exhaust vents of the cooling fan.

Blocking the vents may trap heat inside the projector, which may shorten the useful life of the lamp or damage the projector.
■Do Not Use in the Following Environments
- Locations with excessive humidity, dust, oily smoke or tobacco smoke
Adhesion to the lens, mirrors or other optical parts may reduce image quality. In addition, oil can degrade the plastic, which could result in a ceiling-mounted projector falling from its mounting. - Near high-voltage power lines or sources of electrical power
This may cause malfunction. - On soft surfaces such as carpets or cushioned mats
This may cause a fire or damage the projector. - Locations with excessive temperature or humidity
This may damage the projector. Acceptable ranges for operating and storage temperature and humidity are as follows.
* Operating temperature and humidity applies to when the projector is projecting or in standby mode.
| Operating temperature | Operating humidity Storage temperature | |
| 0°C (32°F) – 40°C (104°F) | Up to 85% | -20°C (-4°F) – 60°C (140°F) |
■Do Not Touch the Lens with Bare Hands
Do not touch the lens with bare hands. Doing so may adversely affect picture quality.
■ Allow a 30 Min. Warm Up before Focus Adjustment (P58), if Possible
The focus position may not stabilize immediately after startup, due to lamp heat. When adjusting focus, it is also helpful to use the test pattern (10) (P98, P178).
■ Install at a Sufficient Distance from Walls and Other Obstructions
If the air intake or exhaust vent is blocked, heat will accumulate inside the projector, possibly resulting in a shortened projector lifetime or a malfunction. Do not install in a closet, on a bookshelf, or in other narrow spaces with poor ventilation. Install in a wellventilated location. (Ensure a minimum clearance of 50 cm (1.6 ft.) above, on both sides, and behind the projector, as shown below.)
Air intake vent
■Be Careful of Condensation
If the temperature of the room rises suddenly, moisture in the air may condense on the projector lens and mirror, causing the image to become blurred. Wait until the condensation has evaporated for the image projected to return to normal.
■ At Altitudes above 2,300 m (7,545.8'), Adjust the Settings
Projector settings must be adjusted when using the projector at altitudes of 2,300 m (7,545.8') or higher. Specifically, refer to instructions for [Fan mode] (P92) in the [Install settings] menu.
■When Using Mounted on the Ceiling
When the projector is used mounted on the ceiling or installed in a high location, it is necessary to periodically clean the air intake and exhaust vents, and the area around the air filter. Dust that accumulates in intake or exhaust vents may impair ventilation, raising the temperature inside and posing a risk of damage or fire. Use a vacuum cleaner or similar means to remove dust from the intake vent and exhaust vent.

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 side, but this does not indicate a problem with the projector. For best results, use a matte screen with a wide viewing angle (WUX450ST).
- To avoid keystone distortion, install the projector so that it is at right angles to the screen.
- The screen must not be exposed to direct sunlight or light from lighting equipment. In a bright room, it is recommended that lights be turned off, curtains be drawn, and other steps taken to make the screen easier to see.
■Floor Installation
To adjust the projection position when the projector is installed on the floor, use the lens shift function (P46, P58) to adjust up / down / left / right. You can also use the adjustable feet to incline the projector upward by up to 6^ .
For information about the relationship between screen size and projection distance, refer to page 45.
■Installation Tilted Upward
To correct keystone distortion when the projector is tilted upward (using adjustable feet, for example), perform keystone correction (P64) or corner adjustment (P65).
■Installation on 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.
natural_image
Illustration of people viewing a presentation screen with charts and graphs, connected to a projector (no text or symbols present)
When setting the projector on a high surface for projection, be sure the surface is flat and stable.
Failure to do so poses a risk of the projector falling and causing accidents or injury.
Attaching Option Feet (RS-FT01, Sold Separately)
Remove the hole caps and screw the option feet into the holes.
The caps are located at four positions on top of the projector. They are removed differently depending on their position.

PJLink is a unified standard for operation and control of projectors.
It allows centralized control of projectors and operation from a controller for all projectors regardless of manufacturer.
The objective is for JBMIA to improve convenience for users and expand the use of projectors through early systemization for network monitoring and control of projectors, which will become the mainstream in the future.
Class 1: Standardization of control and monitoring specifications for basic projector functions
Basic projector control: Power control, input selection, etc.
Acquisition of projector information and status: Power status, input selection status, error status, lamp use time, etc.
JBMIA: Japan Business Machine and Information System Industries Association.

Projecting from Multiple Projectors at Once (Edge Blending)
Overlapping edges of images from multiple projectors used together can be blended to make the overall image more seamless.
■Basic Instructions
Follow these steps when using two projectors side by side.
1In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge blending] > [Adjust].
![CANON REALiS WUX500 - 1In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge blending] > [Adjust]. - 1](/content/2026/05/813108/images/a8dcfdecdac5b5bf516f4c9bfc789fc3b0bb0af18b78ac8b711653fc003c683b.jpg)
- If you have already completed edge blending settings, selecting [Adjust] will apply them.
- To restore the default settings before adjustment, select [Reset].
2Set [Marker] to [On].
Marker lines are projected on the images. The red marker indicates the start position for adjustment, and the green marker, the end position.
![CANON REALiS WUX500 - 2Set [Marker] to [On]. - 2](/content/2026/05/813108/images/3fee88087bac35d8d86723c6c51892fce4fd174513587bdbf7a9433dd9426c36.jpg)
By default, the green and red markers are displayed in the same position, so only the red marker is visible.
3Adjust [Start position] for the side where images overlap. Move the start marker to the outer edge of the overlapping area.
4Adjust [Width]. Move the end marker to the inner edge of the overlapping area.
The area between the starting and ending markers is called the blending area. Shading is applied to this area, and the brightness is adjusted to match portions that overlap with other areas. After you complete settings for one image, do the same thing for the other one to specify the blending area. Adjust the settings to make the blending area for each image the same.
5Set [Marker] to [Off].
■Color Adjustment
In overlapping projection, portions of images in the overlapping area that pick up other colors or are miscolored may be more noticeable. You can make this overlapping area appear less distracting by performing Color blending adjustment.
1 In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge blending] > [Adjust] > [Color blending adjustment] > [Adjust].
2As you watch the image, adjust the value to eliminate unwanted colors in the overlapping area.
First adjust red, green, and blue together by changing the [White] value, and then adjust [Red], [Green], and [Blue] values individually.
3Repeat this adjustment on all projectors.
■Black Level Adjustment
In overlapping projection, dark colors are projected with less intensity than other colors in the overlapping area. You can make this overlapping area less distracting by adjusting the black level of non-overlapping image areas.
Left image Right image
Here, the non-overlapping image area (from the end marker toward the center of the image) is called area "D."
Normally, three areas are identified in the context of end markers: A, B, and C. In the following instructions, only area D is adjusted, and the widths of A, B, and C are left at the default value of 0.
To prepare for adjustment, set [No signal screen] to [Black], start projection with no input signal, and turn off the room lights, so that you can check dark image areas. (P100)
1 In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge blending] > [Adjust] > [Black level adjustment] > [Adjust].
2Select [Adjustment type] > [Black level].
3After selecting [D-area base], as you watch the image, adjust the values so that the brightness and colors of the blending area and area D match.
Adjust [D-area base] to lighten the black level, and adjust [Red], [Green], and [Blue] to obtain an optimal black level color tone, as needed.
4 Repeat this adjustment on all projectors.
■ Smoother Overlapping Areas
The black level along the right edge of area D (along the blending area) may be more noticeable than that of surrounding areas.
By adjusting the black level of area B, you can make the transition smoother.
To compensate, adjust each area as follows.
Left image Position of end marker (hidden)
Area A: Black level cannot be adjusted.
Area B: Adjust to a black level different from that of area D.
Area C: Adjust to provide a smooth transition relative to the black levels of areas B and D.
When the projected image has multiple blending areas (on the top, bottom, and each side), the width of areas A, B, and C must be adjusted to suit these blending areas.
In this example, instructions are given for adjusting area B.
1 In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge blending] > [Adjust] > [Black level adjustment] > [Adjust].
2Select [Adjustment type] > [Area] > [Side] > [Right].
3Select [B-width], and then specify the width of area B.
Adjust the width of area B to roughly match the area where the black level is noticeable.
This will make the width of area D narrower.

Results of adjusting the black level of area B are applied to all sides.
5As you watch the image, adjust the width of areas A, B, and C.
6Readjust the black level of area B, as needed.
To reduce distracting colors and colors that are out of alignment in areas where the images overlap, perform [Color blending adjustment] targeting the main tone in the envisaged projected image.
If you perform adjustments using [Color blending adjustment] or other menus, that may not eliminate the distracting colors and differences in brightness in areas where the images overlap.
Blending can be fine-tuned by adjusting [Adjustment type] > [Black level] > [Red], [Green], and [Blue].
■Corner Adjustment
Projected images from multiple projectors used in overlapping projection must be precisely repositioned. Positions of each corner in the blending area can be aligned with the blending area of the reference projector.
- First, complete [Side] adjustment as described in "Basic Instructions" (P159).
- Sides set to an edge-blending width of 12 or more can be adjusted when [Keystone] is set to [Corner adjustment] and the aspect ratio is [16:10].
• To reset adjustment, use [Keystone] (P91). - A small edge-blending width may limit the amount of adjustment available.
1 On the reference projector, configure keystone (P91) and edge-blending (P93) settings, and then set the edge-blending markers to [On] (P159).
2In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge blending] > [Adjust] > [Corner adjustment].
3Select a point to adjust, and move it so that the image as a whole looks symmetrical.
4As you watch the projected images, fine-tune markers of the projector you are adjusting so that they overlap the reference projector markers as much as possible.

Troubleshooting
Cleaning the Projector
Clean the projector frequently to prevent dust from settling on the surface.
A dirty lens may ruin the quality of the projected image.
Do not use adhesives, lubricants, oils, or alkaline detergents for maintenance of the projector. They could adhere to the cabinet and damage it, possibly resulting in the projector falling from its mounting and causing an accident or personal injury.
Before cleaning the projector, always turn it off, unplug it after the cooling fan stops, and wait at least one hour. Otherwise, you may get burned because the main unit is very hot immediately after the projector is turned off.
Wipe the projector's main unit softly with a soft cloth.
If the projector is heavily soiled, soak the cloth in water with a small amount of detergent in it, squeeze the cloth thoroughly, and then wipe the projector with it.
After cleaning, wipe the projector with a dry cloth.

- Never use volatile cleaning liquid or benzine, as these may damage the finish of the projector.
- Do not use a chemical dust cloth.
- The lens surface is easily damaged, so do not use a hard cloth or tissues.
Cleaning the Air Filter
The air filter protects the lens and mirror inside the projector from dust and dirt. Should the air filter become clogged with dust, the projector may be damaged since it will block the air flow into the projector and raise the internal temperature of the projector.
The following screen is displayed when turning on the projector if the air filter needs to be cleaned. Clean the air filter if it is displayed.
- Only the [◀], [▶], OK and POWER buttons are available while this screen is displayed. (When you press the POWER button, the "Push POWER button again to turn off power." message appears.)
- When this screen has disappeared after being displayed for 10 seconds, all buttons become operable.
Follow the procedure below when cleaning the air filter.
1Turn the power of the projector off and pull out the power plug.
2As you press the top and bottom of the air filter cover to release the lock, remove the cover.
3Open the filter cover and remove it.
4Remove the air filter.
5Hook your finger around the air filter handle on the front of the projector and remove the air filter. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean off the dust.
6Follow this procedure in reverse to install the clean air filter.
Do not rinse the air filter in water. This may damage the air filter and projector.

Replacement Lamp
This projector uses the following lamps.
Lamp part no.: RS-LP08
Contact the Canon Customer Support Center when purchasing a replacement lamp.
Precautions when replacing lamps that stop working If the illumination suddenly stops when the projector is in use or after you turn it on, the lamp may be broken. In this case, never attempt to replace the lamp by yourself. Always request service from the Canon Customer Support Center. Additionally, with ceiling-mounted projectors, the lamp may fall out when you open the lamp cover or while you are attempting to replace it. During replacement, stand to the side of the lamp cover, not directly under it. If the lamp breaks and any glass shards or other pieces get in your eyes or mouth, consult a doctor immediately.
Before replacing the lamp, always turn off the projector, unplug it after the cooling fan stops, and wait at least one hour. Do not touch the lamp immediately after turning the projector off. It is very hot initially and poses a risk of burns.
- Be sure to use the specified lamp.
- Contact the Canon Customer Support Center for further information. This can also be purchased from the Canon website.
- Do not touch the inner glass surface when you replace the lamp. Doing so may cause deterioration to the projector's performance.

Diagram showing a mechanical device with a slide and a separate view of a mechanical component (no text or symbols)Relationship between Aspect and Screen Aspect
This section describes the relationship between screen aspect (P60) and aspect (P62).
Select an optimum aspect ratio of the projected image (screen aspect) or an optimum screen mode (aspect) according to the aspect ratio of the screen, type of input image signal and so on for the projection to make best use of the screen size.
- If a computer image with an aspect ratio of 16:9 is not projected correctly when the setting is [Auto], select [16:9] as the screen aspect.
- For a 16:9 image with black borders at the top and bottom, such as a terrestrial broadcast movie, you can project the 16:9 image area so that it is projected on the entire screen by selecting [Zoom] in [Aspect].
natural_image
