Additional Safety Instructions
•Do not place the components of this system near sources of heat or in direct sunlight.
•Make sure nothing blocks the ventilation openings on any of the components. Allow for sufficient heat
dispersion when components are installed on a rack. Do not block or cover the heatsink on the back of the
subwoofer.
•Where the mains plug is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.
•When unplugging the power cord of any system component, handle it carefully. Hold the plug when
unplugging the cord.
•This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you
are not sure of the type of power supplied in your home, consult your product dealer or local power
company.
•Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk
of fire or electric shock.
•Keep the system components free from moisture, water, and dust.
•Do not let insecticides, benzene, or thinner come in contact with any components of the system.
•Never push objects of any kind through openings in the system components as they may touch dangerous
voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind
on the product.
•Except as specifically explained in these instructions, do not attempt to service this product yourself. Refer
all servicing to qualified service personnel.
•Never disassemble or modify the product in any way. Dangerous electrical voltages inside the components
can severely injure you.
•When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by
the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
•When closing the screen, be careful not to pinch your fingers where the screen closes against the case.
•Do not touch the white part of the screen with your hands. Oil from your skin could damage it.
•Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is turned on. The bright light can damage your eyes.
Never let children look into the lens when it is on.
•Don’t use the projector outside of the required temperature range of 41 to 95 °F (5 to 35 °C). Doing so
may cause an unstable display and could lead to projector damage.

Getting Started
The universal remote control included with your Ensemble HD system puts complete
control over your home theater in the palm of your hand. With one touch, you can
lower the screen, turn on the projector, and get ready to watch a movie. If you’ve
connected additional components to your home theater, such as a cable box or satellite
receiver, you can use the remote control to operate them too.
See these sections:
•“Using the Remote Control” on page 12
•“Turning On the System” on page 13
•“Controlling the Screen” on page 15
•“Controlling the DVD Player and Other Equipment” on page 15
•“Adjusting the Volume” on page 17

Using the Remote Control
Aim the remote control at the screen and press any button. An icon appears on the remote control’s LCD
screen to indicate that a command is being transmitted. At the same time, the blue light at the top of the
projection screen flashes, indicating that the system is receiving a command.
Blue light
Note
The blue light remains on when the screen is raised and turns off when the screen is lowered.
If you’re using the remote control in a darkened room, press the LIGHT button on the side of the remote
