Projector Placement
Your ultra-short throw projector is designed to be installed on a wall (with a wall mount).
You can also place the projector on a flat surface such as a desk or table to project in a portable setup.
Keep these considerations in mind as you select a projector location:
• Follow the instructions in the Installation Guide provided with your mounting hardware to install the
projector using the included mounting equipment.
• Leave plenty of space around and under the projector for ventilation, and do not place it on top of or
next to anything that could block the vents.
• Position the projector within reach of a grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.
• If installing on a wall, the wall mount (V12H902020) is required.
• If the projector is not mounted, place it on a sturdy, level surface.
