Projector Status Lights

If your projector isn't working correctly, first turn it off, wait for
it to cool, and unplug it. Then plug the power cord back in and
turn on the projector. If this doesn't solve the problem, check
the lights on top of the projector. They alert you to problems
with projector operations.

Using the Remote Control

The remote control uses a line-of-sight infrared signal. It lets
you access the projector's features from anywhere in the room—
up to 20 feet away. (This distance may be shorter if the remote
control batteries are low.)
The projector may not respond to remote control commands in
these conditions:
❏ You are too far away—not within 20 feet (6 meters)—or not
within 30° to the left or right of the front or rear sensor or
15° above or below it
❏ The battery is weak or not installed correctly
❏ Ambient light is too bright
❏ A fluorescent light is shining into the infrared receiver
❏ A strong light source (such as direct sunlight) shines into the
infrared receiver
❏ Other equipment emitting infrared energy is present (such as
a radiant room heater)
