Twilight Electric Series

Outdoor Electric/Motorized Projector Screen

User’s Guide

Thank you for choosing the Twilight Electric projection screen! Please read through this user guide

before utilizing the screen. Correct usage and maintenance will ensure a long product life.

Product Description:

The Twilight Electric is an outdoor projector screen for wall and patio installations that brings media

room quality to your outdoor spaces. Its sleek aluminum casing beautifully accessorizes your

backyard, patio, pool deck or anywhere a gathering for evening movie time is appropriate.

Outdoor Projection Screen Disclaimer

Never leave your projection screen out and exposed to direct sunlight. Regardless of screen brand,

prolonged exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet radiation degrades the chemical bonds causing the

material to eventually decompose. Photo degradation first causes the material to lose its theater-

grade reflective qualities. Eventually nature will destroy even synthetic materials. For this reason,

the Twilight Electric has a retractable design that allows the material to be drawn up into its

protective casing to be shielded from solar radiation.

Care & Use Instructions

◆Dust, dirt and scratches on the projection surface will affect the picture quality, please take note of

the points below to prevent that from occurring:

1. Do not touch the projection surface with your hands

2. Do not write or draw on the projection surface

3. Do not use fingers or sharp objects to point on the projection surface; this will damage the

screen material.

4. Use a soft-damp cloth to clean the projection surface; do not use chemical cleaning agents

or alcohol.

5. Use clean water when dampening the cleaning cloth and do not rub against the material to

clean it.

◆To avoid damage and injury, the screen should only be operated by adults.
