You can place the projector on almost any flat surface
to project an image.
You can also install the projector in a ceiling if you
want to use it in a fixed location. An optional
ceiling mount is required when suspending the projector from a
ceiling. Click the "Important Safety Instructions" link below to
read important safety instructions before mounting the
projector.
There is no vertical or horizontal limit to how the
projector can be installed.
Keep these considerations in mind as you select a
projector location:
- Place the
projector on a sturdy, level surface or install it using a
compatible mount.
- 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.
- If you are using the projector at altitudes above
4921 feet (1500 m), set the High
Altitude Mode setting to On in the projector's Settings menu to ensure
the projector's internal temperature is regulated properly.
- Position
the projector within reach of a grounded electrical outlet or
extension cord.
- If installing on the ceiling, remove all projector
feet.
- Place the projector so it squarely faces the screen,
not at an angle. If you cannot install the projector squarely
facing the screen, correct any resulting image distortion using the
projector controls.
- To change the projected image size, move the
projector closer to or further away from the surface you are
projecting onto.
- Try not to set up the projector in locations subject
to high humidity and dust, or in locations subject to smoke from
fires or tobacco smoke.
