Chapter 3: Usage tips
Read this chapter to learn how best to project, position and handle your Slice.

Signal
After the Cinemin welcome screen has been displayed, Slice is ready to project the
signal it receives from your media player.
1.
Ensure that your media player device has video-out functionality, as not all
do (particularly some smartphone models). Check your media player's
specs and settings.
2.
Ensure that all cable connections — both with your media player and with
Slice — are completely inserted.
3.
Ensure that you have pressed play on your media player. Some content,
such as photo slideshows and web videos, will project only when "played."
Projection size
To increase the size of the projected image, move Slice away from the surface on
to which you are projecting. Adjust the focus as needed.
Distance from Slice to surface*
125-inches (335 cm)
57-inches (145 cm)
28-inches (71 cm)
*Measurements are approximate.
To project vertically — for example, on to a ceiling — simply move the projector
hinge to a vertical angle. Adjust the focus as needed.

For best results, project on a white, unobstructed surface in a
dark or dimly lit room.
