You can use the remote control up to 32.8 feet (10 meters) from the projector. (This distance may be shorter if the remote control batteries are low.) You must also hold the remote control so that it is within ± 30° left or right of, and ± 15° higher or lower than, the infrared receiver.

Note: If the projector doesn’t respond to remote commands, the room may be too light or a strong light source (such as direct sunlight) may be hitting the infrared receiver. The presence of a certain type of fluorescent light or equipment emitting infrared energy (such as a radiant room heater) can also interfere with transmission of remote commands.

This table summarizes the functions on the remote control.
