could cause the projector to break down. Be sure to attach the lens cap and place the projector into the soft

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 be-
tween remote and projector is obstructed, you can bounce the remote signal off certain reflective
surfaces such as projector screens.
