Selecting A Location

The further your projector is from the screen or wall, the larger the im-
age. The minimum size the image can be projected is 80" (2 m) mea-
sured diagonally. The largest the image can be is 500" (12.7 m).

WARNING

• Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If the projector falls

to the ground, you can be injured and the projector severely dam-
aged.

• Do not use the projector where temperatures vary greatly. The pro-

jector must be used at temperatures between 40 degrees F (5 de-
gree C) and 95 degrees F (35 degree C).

• Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or smoke. This will

degrade the screen image.

• Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your projector for

proper heat dissipation. Do not cover the vents on the projector cabi-
net.
