Tool for cutting plastic wire management tracks, such as a hacksaw

Warning
Do not route the included power cables through the wall or ceiling. They are not rated for this purpose. Deliberate
mis-installation could result in fire or other safety hazards.
Laying Out the Home Theater
The home theater should be arranged as shown below, with the projector and screen at opposite ends of the
room and the seating area in the middle.
For a successful installation, the room must be at least 13 feet long (for the PowerLite Home Cinema 1080) or
13.5 feet long (for the PowerLite Home Cinema 720). If your room is shorter than this, you won’t be able to
install the projector far enough back for the image to fill the whole screen.

12 to 16 feet
(3.7 to 4.9 m)
