Installation Tips:

  • Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface or install it using a compatible mount.
  • Place the projector parallel to the screen.
  • Leave plenty of space around and under the projector for ventilation, and do not place it on top of or next to anything that could block the vents.
  • Position the projector within reach of a grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.
  • Position it squarely in front of the center of the screen, not at an angle.
