Important:
1. Avoid using the projector with bright fluorescent lighting turned on. Certain high-frequency fluo-
rescent lights can disrupt remote control operation.
2. Be sure nothing obstructs the path between the remote control and the projector. If the path between remote and projector is obstructed, you can bounce the remote signal off certain reflective
surfaces such as projector screens.
