USING THE REMOTE CONTROL
CAUTIONPrecautions to observe in regards to the batteries
Always handle the batteries with care and use them only as directed. Improper use may result in
battery cracking or leakage, which could result in fire, injury and/or pollution of the surrounding environment.
• Keep the battery away from children and pets.
• 
Be sure to use only the batteries specified for use with the remote control. Do not mix new batteries with used ones.
• When inserting batteries, verify that the plus and minus terminals are aligned correctly (as indicated in the remote control).

ENGLISH
• The remote control works with both
the projectors front and rear remote
sensors.
• The range of the remote sensor on
the front is 3 meters with a 90-degree
range (45 degrees to the left and
right of the remote sensor), and back
is 3 meters with a 60-degree range.
• Since the remote control uses
infrared light to send signals to the
projector (Class 1 LED), be sure to
use the remote control in an area free
from obstacles that could block the
remote controls output signal to the
projector.
Precautions to observe when using the remote control
• 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
wont be using the remote control for an extended period. 
• Replace the batteries whenever the remote control starts to malfunction.
• When strong light, such as direct sunlight or light from an extremely close range
(such as from an inverter fluorescent lamp), hits the projectors remote sensor, the
remote control may cease to function.  Adjust the direction of the projector to keep
light from directly hitting the projectors remote sensor.
