If the projector falls to the ground, you can be injured and the projector severely damaged. The projector must be used at temperatures between 32°F (0°C) and 95°F (35°C). · Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your projector so heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents on the side or the front of the projector. PC-CONTROL S-VIDEO VIDEO If your projector is mounted on the ceiling and your image is upside down, use the "Menu" and "Select" buttons on your projector cabinet or LM button on your remote control to correct the orientation. (See page E-31. ) Reflecting the Image Using a mirror to reflect your projector's image enables you to enjoy a much larger image. If you're using a mirror and your image is inverted, use the "Menu" and "Select" buttons on your projector cabinet or LM buttons on your remote control to correct the orientation.
