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 50, then push up on the on/off switch to turn it on. On/off switch note If the pointer button is pressed longer than 10 seconds, the remote control stops operating to conserve power. Releasing the button resumes normal operation. 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 12). ■ 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. 46 Giving Your Presentation
