    remote. When disposing of the batteries, be sure to do so in an environmen
    -
    tally proper manner.To operate, point the remote at the front of the projector (not at the com
    -

    -
    tors (L and/or R) on the projector ’s composite connectors. To adjust the volume, press the Vo l u m e buttons on the keypad.Troubleshooting AudioIf you aren’t hearing the audio, check the following: Make sure the audio cable is connected. Make sure the volume is turned up enough. Press the Vo l u m e  button 
    on the keypad or remote. Make sure the correct source is active. Make sure that you are connected to an “audio out” connector on the 
    source as opposed to a “line-in” or “microphone” connector. Adjust the audio source. If playing a video, make sure the playback has not been paused.Connecting external speakersThe projector can be attached to external amplified speakers by connecting a 
    3.5mm stereo audio cable from the Audio Out connector on the projector to 
    the amplified speakers. Alternatively, you can bypass the projector ’s audio 
    system and connect the audio directly from your source to a stereo or home 
    theater system.
