USING THE REMOTE CONTROL

Putting batteries into the remote control unit

CAUTION

Always handle the batteries with care and use them only as directed. Improper use may result in

battery cracking or leakage, which could result in fire, injury and/or pollution of the surrounding environment.

• Keep the battery away from children and pets.

•

Be sure to use only the batteries specified for use with the remote control. Do not mix new batteries with used ones.

•

When inserting batteries, verify that the plus and minus terminals are aligned correctly (as indicated in the remote control).

• When you dispose the battery, you should obey the law in the relative area or country.

Remove the battery cover

Slide back and remove the battery cover in the direction of the arrow.

Insert the batteries

Align and insert the two AA batteries (that came with the projector) according to their plus and minus terminals (as indicated in the remote control).

Close the battery cover

Replace the battery cover in the direction of the arrow and snap it back into place.

Precautions to observe in regards to the batteries

Operating the remote control

• The remote control works with both the projector's front and rear remote sensors.

• The range of the remote sensor on the front is 3 meters with a 90-degree range (45 degrees to the left and right of the remote sensor), and back is 3 meters with a 60-degree range.

• Since the remote control uses infrared light to send signals to the projector (Class 1 LED), be sure to use the remote control in an area free from obstacles that could block the remote control's output signal to the projector.

ATTENTION

Precautions to observe when using the remote control

• Do not drop or otherwise expose the remote control to physical impact.

• Do not get the remote control wet or place it on wet objects. Doing so may result in

malfunction.

• Remove the batteries from the remote control and store them in a safe place if you won't be using the remote control for an extended period.

• Replace the batteries whenever the remote control starts to malfunction.

• When strong light, such as direct sunlight or light from an extremely close range

(such as from an inverter fluorescent lamp), hits the projector's remote sensor, the remote control may cease to function. Adjust the direction of the projector to keep light from directly hitting the projector's remote sensor.
