This can damage the lens. 2. Place the projector at a correct distance from the screen. The distance between the projector and the screen determines the actual image size. Use the general guidelines below to determine the correct distance. 3. Turn the projector so that the lens is at right angles to the screen. If the projector is not angled correctly, the screen image will be crooked. 4. Connect one end of the power cable to the projector’s power connector. Connect the other end to an earthed electrical socket. The projector should be in sleep mode, indicated by an orange power indicator. ¨ Warning: Never look into the lens when the projector is on.
