52 Using the Remote Control
Activating and Using the Remote
Control
The remote control has an ON/OFF switch on its side, as shown.
Before using the remote, make sure batteries are installed as described
on page 54, then push up on the ON/OFF switch to turn it on.
Turn off the remote control before transporting or storing it; this
prevents the batteries from discharging if something presses against
one of the buttons.
Here are some additional tips:
■ Point the remote control either at the front or back of the
projector, or at the screen.
■ Stand within about 30 feet of the projector. If you want to operate
the projector from a greater distance, a remote control cable set is
available (see page 15).
■ When presenting in a darkened room, press the light button to
make the buttons on the remote light up temporarily.
■ Avoid using the remote under bright fluorescent lamps or in
direct sunlight, or the projector may not respond properly.
On/off switch
note
If a button is pressed longer
than 60 seconds, the remote
control stops operating to
conserve power. When you
release the button, normal
operation resumes.
