Operating The Remote Control
ATTENTION• 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 lights, such as direct sunlight or light from an extremely close range
(such as from an inverter fluorescent lamp), hit the projector’s remote sensor, the
remote control may cause to function. Adjust the direction of the projector to keep light
from directly hitting the projector’s remote sensor.
• The remote control works with the projector’s remote
sensor.
• The range of the remote sensor is 3 meters with a 60-
degree range (30 degrees to the left and right of the
remote sensor). 
Also a remote signal reflected in the screen etc. may be
available. If it is difficult to send a remote signal to the
sensor directly, please try.
• Since the remote control uses infrared light to send
signals to the projector (Class1 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.
